We had a lovely stay for our wedding anniversary. Loved the character of the old hotel - the bar and breakfast room. Views over Parker's piece very nice. Room OK - as others have said- a little tired. Staff very pleasant. Breakfast excellent. Location excellent. However, I feel staff would be helped if the De Vere chain modified some of... More

Time has taken its toll here but the hotel still claims to be at the top of its field. In need of an update. Very comfortable beds. General maintenance could be better. Breakfasts were very good but the variety offered on Monday was noticeably less than atthe weekend. Afternoon tea was not nearly as attractive as the photos widely displayed,... More

Lost in cambridge, we had trouble with the hotel before we even got there, as reception weren't answering the phone when we tried a few times to call for directions. On entering the hotel with our suitcases, a couple heading out for the night jokingly said 'turn back while you still can'. When we got to our room, we realised... More

it is suffice to say that whoever was taking the photos is very very talented! It doesn't look anything like them! The building is a charming bit of modernist concrete architecture... not the lovely period building the photos of it make it out to be! The reception staff are very pleasant and polite, and that was our only interaction with... More

We stayed one night while my wife attended the university and needed somewhere within walking distance.The Hotel does not match up to the pictures on the website as in real life it is a lot less grand.We paid £148 for a nice room facing the park with breakfast.We were also charged £20 to park the car overnight!Considering the price of...

A single room is a what I would consider a 3/4 room. I could almost touch both sides of the room. A bit bijou... It was clean and more importantly warm given the cold snap we were experiencing. The room appeared to be furnished with deliberately distressed hard furnishings. Is this the schoolboy element of university? Parking is extremely limi More

Having previously stayed here in an acceptable regular room which cost £89, I decided to try one of their 'executive' rooms thinking that they'd be of a substantially better quality at £149, room only. We were first offered a room near the front which looked and felt identical to the regular room I'd previously stayed in. I pointed this out... More

I stayed one night on business - room and breakfast cost £107.10 Like many other comments I agree the rooms are a little dated and the small touches in the room could be approved apon but my overall experience is a good one for this hotel, not sure if its worth over £100 but that might be down to the...

Very disappointed with our stay at this establishment. We travelled a fair distance up to Cambridge for a nice romantic weekend with my girlfriend and was shocked at how misleading the pictures on the website were compared to the actual current state of the rooms at this hotel. The rear of the hotel (Pictured) is stunning admittedly..... the front however... More
