Great location but decor was tired and the establishment is in much need of an overhaul on the evidence of our room. Relatively dated look about the place. That said, Staff couldn’t do enough for us and we spent a great afternoon in the bar watching Six Nations. But they are playing with one arm tied behind their backs. Too many competitively priced eateries elsewhere in the city to keep us in the hotel at mealtimes.

Was centrally located.

Staff was cranky. Need to update hotel if they want to stay in the game. Hotel had a distinct odor.

Conveniently situated Hotel

Pros: Convenience to the city centre
Cons: For a 3 star hotel it was fine.
Location: As noted the hotel is convenient to the colleges, the Fitzwilliam Museum and the city centre.
Entry to the car park was simply operated and booking in for our stay was carried out efficiently. We visited the Fitzwilliam museum which was about 5 minutes walk from the hotel. Later we ate at a busy restaurant in town. We concluded our visit to Cambridge by making an early start the following morning.

Handy location, clean room

Pros: Location
Cons: Reception assistance
This is a good location close to the train station and an easy walk to Colleges and restaurants. Basic service, ok if you're staying one or two nights.
