“This hotel strikes me as a place where classic Cambridge charm meets contemporary comforts, particularly appealing with its unusual Bentley tours. The dining, recognized with two AA Rosettes, seems a cut above, and I appreciate the extensive pillow menu-a thoughtful touch. It's a spot that aims for a higher standard, even welcoming pets with tailored amenities.”

warm welcome confectionery selection bicycle use broken air conditioning hot towel rail no maintenance
The staff greeted me warmly on arrival. A lovely selection of confectionery awaited me in my room. It was a nice surprise. I enjoyed a bicycle one day. I was able to cycle along the river to watch my granddaughter have rowing coaching.
The room I was in had air conditioning that wasn't working. There was also a super hot towel rail. I told reception, and they assured me maintenance would check. I heard nothing more and returned to a very hot room.

Fantastic Stay!
accessible parking smart tv excellent breakfast service friendly person
I found parking very accessible. The room came equipped with a smart TV. The breakfast service from Jeff was excellent. He remembered my order each morning. He is such a friendly person.
The lobby bathrooms lacked regular checks. Some cubicles were out of order, and supplies needed restocking.

the check-in resembled some kind of policy recital i was forced to endure rules regulations and emergency exits were all discussed in detail so exciting plus my room room #1 had a broken a/c and the room service menu boasted gourmet options but they only offered tosties then i switched to room #2 only to find the bathroom door refused to shut talk about awkward moments

underwhelming stay
broken lift no luggage assistance
the room location was acceptable.
The lift was out of service for the duration of my stay and no assistance with luggage was offered. Carrying bags up two flights of stairs was not ideal.
