Wilde Cambridge City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in the center of town! The room was clean and very comfortable. The kitchenette was clean and modern. They even provide milk for tea in the fridge."

Novotel London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely relaxing decor in bedroom, very clean and nice towels. Restaurant was a bit basic and felt a little grubby, Standard food like a Wetherspoons but at very inflated prices with no option to visit anywhere else locally. Staff friendly and professional. Would stay again, but maybe eat before we arrived in the evening!"

Cambridge Quy Mill Hotel & Spa in Cambridge

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was good. Room is a little dated. Note additional parking fee of £10.20 which is totally unnecessary given the out of town location"

Novotel Cambridge North

8/10 Good

"The rooms they didn’t felt cosy. It was okay."

Graduate by Hilton Cambridge

8/10 Good

"I enjoyed the stay but we were a little disappointed by the size of the room and the balcony which was tiny. I expected a little more for the price. We wanted something really special for this trip but sadly expectations were not met. On the plus side, friendly staff, nice garden and very lovely location."
