Hyatt Centric Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, location"

Hotel du Vin & Bistro Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"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."

The Gonville Hotel, a member of Radisson Individuals

10/10 Excellent

"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!"

Turing Locke Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Pleasant efficient staff and good studio with excellent facilities. A handy tip is that you can park overnight (6pm-8am) on the street right opposite the hotel for free, spaces are limited but I got one for both of the nights I stayed. Even if you pay for a few hours, it's cheaper than £20 per night the hotel charges."

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"

University Arms, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Best staffs and best vibe for Cambridge. Must stay if you visit to Cambridge"

Hilton Cambridge City Centre

8/10 Good

"The Hotel overall is nice. It's 10-12 minutes from thr city centre and King's College. Unfortunately, the Hotel is under construction and the dining area was closed off. Breakfast is decent, but limited compared to something like the St. Ermins in Westchester District, London."

The Regent Aparthotel

10/10 Excellent

"Location was great. Room was simple and functional. Lots of cold breakfast choices."
