"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."

Top River Cam Hotel Reviews

The Fellows House Cambridge, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Restaurant was lovely."

Hyatt Centric Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Tidy very clean excellent staff"

ibis Cambridge Central Station

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and wonderful cafe in the lobby."

Arundel House Hotel

8/10 Good

"The website stated parking was provided, but when we arrived we were charged a substantial extra - not very welcoming. On Sunday morning we were woken by a very loud alarm. The staff's reaction was incompetent and seemed to reveal a complete ack of Fire awareness or training. No attempt was made to reassure visitors, ensure that everyone was accounted for or inform them that it was a false alarm. Restaurant staff were helpful and attentive."

Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was gorgeous and kept so nice, first impressions are great with a welcoming team and lovely reception area. We got upgraded to a suite which was a lovely surprise and the room was so nice! Really comfortable, spacious and modern. Pool area is good too!"

Wilde Cambridge City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, we used the Castle Hill car park, that was a 15 minute walk, but cheaper. Before going, I checked that I could leave our baggage in reception and the response was quick and helpful. The rooms were lovely and spacious for the three of us. All the extra’s, like body wash, shampoo etc smelt lovely. Nice to have decent toilet roll. Loved the kitchen with the dishwasher, fridge & coffee machine. Would definitely stay again."

University Arms, Autograph Collection
