The room was excellent. The food in “Six” was not very good. We ordered 4 different starters, as a snack - Tapas style, however they were all poor, and you could buy better at M&S. sorry, the rest of the stay was very good, the food let it down a bit. ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin 28 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fabulous ##### Martin Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liam 12 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort We stayed for the Half Marathon was super close and the start, great location and the staff were brilliant, especially Dave who was super helpful with the amount of luggage we had! ##### Liam Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gordon 25 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Located very near Magdalene College. ##### Gordon Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ollie 24 Jan 2025 #### Will Stay again Amazing hotel, great spot for exploring Cambridge on foot.

Hotel is tired and a little disappointing ##### Julia Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alison 24 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Lovely venue and room The rooms are lovely, views amazing and I used to stay here frequently a few years ago, so was an easy go to when visiting Cambridge after being away for several years. My challenge was the level of noise that disturbed me overnight, I am a light sleeper so used to being disturbed, however it was several times during the night and early hours. Usually a small lie in keeps me going however again the noise disturbance prevented that too … I wasn’t asked how my stay was to provide feedback as I checked out … or I would have done and may have just been the room I booked which was beautifully decorated, comfy bed, great temp control and spacious … I should take ear plugs with me and be able to give a glowing report as everything else was great ##### Alison Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert 18 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great hotel, staff and location ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris 25 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved the location! ##### Chris Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William 21 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect Stay in Cambridge We booked two rooms for one night at the hotel.
