"Perfectly perfect"

10.0

In the middle of everything. Short walk into the centre of the City. Lots of pubs nearby and great for shops

The only issue was that at breakfast you are a bit bearded into a small section of the restaurant.

"Fabulous staff made this hotel stay perfect"

10.0

Perfectly situated for our stay. The real stand out for us were the staff - ALL The staff! All were super friendly and nothing was too much trouble. It’s not often I would say this but they were a total credit to the hotel and made our stay all the better for it.

Nothing.

"Lovely short stay in Cambridge with accessible location in town"

8.0

Property location is right in the city which is very accessible by foot however, very difficult to find by car. Rooms are quite nice but ceiling in the shower in our room was leaking. There is a coffee maker, two bottle is f water, robes and slippers. Bed is comfortable. Staff were nice and allowed us to check in before 3 since our rooms were ready.

The roof terrace was not open on the day or our arrival and even the next day so we were not able to really enjoy that considering that the reason why we booked the place was bec of the roof terrace.
