Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a cozy ambiance with super comfy beds and a lovely wine bar, although the rooms are a bit small. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff who even left chocolates in the room. The location is perfect for exploring Cambridge on foot. The dining experience lacked diversity during the week but offered traditional regional homemade products. Overall, a pleasant stay with minor room size limitations.
I recently stayed at the hotel and found it to be a mixed experience. While the rooms were mostly clean and elegant, there were some issues like a grubby hole in the bed cushion and splashes on the headboard. The service was friendly and accommodating, with only a minor exception. The location was excellent, particularly for exploring the town of Cambridge, and the dining experience was good with freshly cooked hot dishes. However, the price seemed to be on the higher side for what was offered.
