Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic experience from the time of arrival through to the moment that I left. Would highly recommend staying at this property"

ibis Cambridge Central Station

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best places to stay in Cambridge , right next to the Central station. Very convenient to go to London and other destinations. Being used to North America, i have come to expect hotels to have air conditioning and after going around the UK in hotels with no AC. The ibis in Cambridge with its super modern rooms, AC and large baths are a huge relief. This is such a gem of a place in Cambridge close to the University and all the Major shops."

The Hobson Cambridge By Adina

10/10 Excellent

"Look for a building that says POLICE as the only hotel sign was on the door. Staff was very nice. Dining area is beautiful and breakfast was good. Room was clean and air conditioning was good."

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean. Towel on offer and fresh bedding. Staff were approachable and work 24/7"
