Breakfast was great, but there was a long walk to the room with no lift, the bath was rather scruffy, and check-in seemed to take ages as I needed to repeat everything at least 3 times.

As expected

The hotel room was spacious, you could tell it was slightly aged, but it was clean. Staff on reception were excellent as were those serving in the bar and restaurant. I used the gym, the facilities were good, albeit a little tired. There was a wedding at the hotel on the 2nd night we stayed, any hotel room in the corridor of the reception hall (where we stayed) feels like part of the party. The music was so loud. It does get turned off at 12am, but it's intrusive. The hotel manager and reception staff were excellent, unfortunately there weren't any other rooms to move to, but I can't fault their customer service. Overall this is a decent little hotel on the edge of Cambridge, easily accessible.

A nice stay

A pit stop on the way to France. Initially the hotel looked great, amazing gym and pool but the rooms were tired in need of upgrades. There was a wedding reception and the lobby and bar were chockablock. Staff were very welcoming and friendly.

The stay at this hotel was a stop over towards our final destination. It is in the ideal location for a one night stay. The check-in clerk (Alan) was extremely pleasant, professional and helpful. The room was a lovely room in a very quiet area of the hotel. The bedroom was spacious and clean. The bathroom was clean and functional but could be in need of an update. All of the staff we came into contact with at the hotel were all polite and helpful. I would recommend this hotel as an ideal stop over hotel.

Convenient location close to park and ride. Premium room was run down and needed an upgrade. Had to eat outside of hotel and go to local supermarket for whole of stay due to lack of any gluten free options.
