"A stunning and interesting hotel. Lovely rooms, well appointed and a sumptuous bath!! The bed was one of the comfiest beds I've slept in! The staff were so friendly and welcoming. A lovely fresh cooked breakfast with so much choice. 5 minute walk to the centre. Thoroughly recommend staying here."

Graduate by Hilton Cambridge

8/10 Good

"Our group of 4 adults and 2 “children” spent the weekend in Cambridge. The hotel was the perfect spot for our activities, all of which were within easy walking distance from the hotel: up to 15 minute walks. Also, there were several fabulous restaurants in the neighbourhood, including the restaurant on site. Our room was comfortable and quiet although it looked out to the hotel carpark. The leisure centre was superb, nice pool / gym, and Ben was most welcoming on a busy busy weekend. Breakfast was good and the tasting menu is recommended for dinner. Loved the bar ! The front desk team was most attentive. Will return definitely in the New Year."

"We loved the complimentary drink upon arrival! The breakfast was plentiful with great variety and the staff was very friendly. Our room was charming, clean and quiet with a great bed!"

The Fellows House Cambridge, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Loved our stay. Great secure parking, striking reception and bar area, wonderful size room, lovely pool area and a fantastic equipped gym. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Small improvements : 2 TVs and the remotes control both so they keep coming on, going off, volume not working spasmodically / can only mirror screen from an android phone. We used 2 cups for tea, left them on side when we went out and the cups were put in the dishwasher by the cleaner but we had to wash them up when we got back as had no other cups to replace them. The usb ports in the plugs didn’t work next to the bed. For a Hilton hotel the pillows were very poor quality. Honestly had a wonderful stay and all those things were small but maybe worth a mention as easily rectified x"

Lensfield Hotel

8/10 Good

"The friendliness of the Japanese Receptionist really made the stay and the Breakfast was very enjoyable"
