"Stayed here while attending an appointment at Papworth Hospital and had a great experience. The hotel was excellent value for money, in a peaceful location, and the room was clean, comfortable, and well presented. The staff were lovely, and having a bar and restaurant on site was a real bonus. We ordered drinks and dessert, both of which were delicious. I would happily stay here again if the price is right."

"Room was clean but whole floor smelt of cigarette smoke. It’s a shame because the rooms are letting down the hotel as the rest of the hotel is very nice and it could be a top spot to visit. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the grounds were stunning! Food was also great but more on the expensive side. I had the burger on the menu (£18) it did come with chips and was tasty! Good place to stay if you want a short stay but it could do with some TLC"

Top Thaxted Hotel Reviews

Cambridge Quy Mill Hotel & Spa in Cambridge

8/10 Good

"We booked very last minute with no idea what to expect. But great parking, nice rooms, food was good although the constant reference to ‘extras’ was a little annoying. We would stay again though."

Novotel London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel, made the early flight much easier, First 30 mins in car park are free enabling a smooth drop off. Shuttle bus to airport was £4pp."

The Gonville Hotel, a member of Radisson Individuals

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, great location but the stand out was the staff, every person of staff that I spoke to was very friendly, a lot of the staff were young which in the U.K. could be a red flag however, maybe it’s the Cambridge air but they were all great."

Manor of Groves Hotel, Golf & Health Club

10/10 Excellent

"Very relaxed stay, calm and quiet"

Swan Hotel Thaxted by Greene King Inns

8/10 Good

"I was perhaps unlucky in that the first night was very busy and consequently noisy and I had to wait a long time in the restaurant for my food. The second night was much better. Away from the main public areas the hotel bedrooms were accessed by a carpeted staircase which was attractive and the decor was clean and smart. My bedroom was a single which was warm and spotlessly clean and had a good quality en suite. The bed was very comfortable. I was happy with the food I had both in the evening and at breakfast. My overall review of the hotel was one which gave good value and one that I would happily revisit."

University Arms, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We love this hotel, it’s really world class. Beautifully decorated, amazing staff, we are always so well looked after. The location is fantastic and our room had a lovely view over Parker’s Piece."

Hampton by Hilton London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Great breakfast, clean room. Really comfortable bed"

The Fellows House Cambridge, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Location was ideal for us and pricing within reason. We just spent one night before going on to Ely for a wedding."
