Top The Polar Museum Hotel Reviews

Clayton Hotel Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent and defo return"

The Fellows House Cambridge, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Really appreciated that they had on site parking (at a cost) and a laundry room that allows people to wash clothes. The property seemed clean and well maintained. Food at the restaurant was just okay for the price point and although everyone was very nice, service was a bit slow and forgetful."

Hyatt Centric Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Tidy very clean excellent staff"

ibis Cambridge Central Station

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and wonderful cafe in the lobby."

Arundel House Hotel

8/10 Good

"The website stated parking was provided, but when we arrived we were charged a substantial extra - not very welcoming. On Sunday morning we were woken by a very loud alarm. The staff's reaction was incompetent and seemed to reveal a complete ack of Fire awareness or training. No attempt was made to reassure visitors, ensure that everyone was accounted for or inform them that it was a false alarm. Restaurant staff were helpful and attentive."

The Regent Aparthotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room Breakfast has lots of options"

Wilde Cambridge City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, we used the Castle Hill car park, that was a 15 minute walk, but cheaper. Before going, I checked that I could leave our baggage in reception and the response was quick and helpful. The rooms were lovely and spacious for the three of us. All the extra’s, like body wash, shampoo etc smelt lovely. Nice to have decent toilet roll. Loved the kitchen with the dishwasher, fridge & coffee machine. Would definitely stay again."

Hilton Cambridge City Centre

10/10 Excellent

University Arms, Autograph Collection
