The location is superb. Easy walking distance into town/cafes and restaurants, the river and colleges. Valet parking is another huge advantage. The restaurant and rooftop bar are key features and made our stay very special. Panoramic views and great service. Cocktails and meals delicious. The rooms are comfortable and clean and staff really welcoming and helpful.

The only small criticism is the lack of any lounge/ seating area as you enter. Reception is quite small and whilst there is a comfortable two seater sofa there isn’t a space to relax downstairs before/after heading out for the day.

The room was very comfortable and spacious. It was also nice and quite and we slept well. The hotel was well located to explore the city from. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful.

The showerscreen didn't really cover the shower and so felt near impossible to use it without flooding the bathroom. I was a little disappointed by the spa as it was rather small and felt quite crowded. I was also dissappointed with the restaurant. The food was nice enough, but overpriced for what it was and service felt perfunctory and I expected more for the price we were paying. I think with the restaurant you are really paying for the lovely view, rather than the whole dining experience.

Me and wife had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, close to everything we needed, with easy access to local attractions and transport links. The hotel itself was spotless and well maintained, and the atmosphere was welcoming from the moment we arrived. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable throughout our stay. A special thank you for the lovely birthday cake left in the room, such a thoughtful touch that really made the experience feel personal and memorable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Cambridge . Great service, great location, and an all around enjoyable stay. Will definitely be coming back.

Room was excellent - lovely panoramic views of the Cambridge Meadows and spires. Lots of room, quality mattress and sheets - quiet and comfortable. Couldn't enjoy breakfast as jet lag took hold and we missed it - and when we did try the restaurant it was closed for 'deep cleaning'. However it did re-open a little later but again the ship had sailed by then and we went to a local pub of which there are many. It's a lovely hotel, boutique style, but we didn't really get to enjoy it for the one night. Great location though!

Parking was non existent unless you paid for valet - so be it. Other than that pleasant and charming downtown location.

The balcony was amazing. The room was lovely. The staff were polite and helpful. The location was OK.

The view had a massive crane outside my window. Also road works started making so much noise about 9am in the morning. Everytime someone shut there room door, it made a loud noise in our room and it made our door shake. So we barely slept as we kept thinking someone was trying to open our door. There was so much noise all night. Between 1am-9am. Was ridiculous. We had a coffee machine that didn't even work. I paid £311 for the night and it definitely wasn't worth the money

Lovely hotel room. Very spacious, clean and comfortable.

Location very awkward to get to by car. Signs all around the surrounding routes saying only buses and taxis can use road. Very confusing, meaning I drove around for ages trying to figure it out- as did my friend in a different vehicle. Got there and there was no hotel parking unless you pay £33 for valet. This meant the total spend on a double room for 1 night (2 people sharing) was £400. That didn't include breakfast. Rooftop terrace also closed due to bad weather. Overall a lovely little boutique hotel but too pricy in my opinion.

Lovely hotel, staff were excellent, was given a free upgrade upon check in which has NEVER happened before so really happy about that! Gorgeous suite with huge bath in room, so clean, so light and airy, slept like babies! Decided not to leave the room as it was so nice, ordered room service from Six, mostly the food was great but the pizza could’ve been better! Overall, throughly enjoyed and would definitely return! Only downside was the access to the spa is outside the hotel so you have to leave through the main entrance to get there which put me off so didn’t use the spa!

Spa access is via the main entrance

It was a gorgeous room. Very clean throughout. Absolutely loved having a nice big bath. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Only a couple of things. Wouldn't usually even mention them, but for the price, should have been better. Our welcome information mentioned using the tablet provided to find more local information, see a more detailed list of services, food/drink available, play games etc. However, we didn't have a tablet. We did mention it and a lovely lady came to our room and was apologetic that it had mysteriously disappeared! I expected them to provide another one but it seemed to have been forgotten. My daughter was hungry on arrival and homed in on the sweets and crisps. I then noticed that they were priced at £4.95 each. I felt that after paying £360 for a 2 night, room only stay, this was a bit steep.

This hotel is very well situated for visiting Cambridge central, although the room was more basic than expected for the price. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We ate in the Six restaurant and the food and service were good and we enjoyed a drink on the rooftop bar - the views were great, although the drinks were pricey!

For the price paid, the room was smaller and more basic than expected and we were looking straight into an alley with very loud air con engines outside. The pillows were also very uncomfortable and whilst alternatives were provided when we asked at reception, they were of the same quality!

We absolutely loved our room it was spacious and comfortable and we were even left a birthday cake and welcome card for my partner who’s birthday we were celebrating. The location is fantastic and just along the river where the views are stunning and there is everything you could possibly need a short walk away! The rooftop bar is a lovely addition to have drinks on and all the staff in the restaurant and hotel were welcoming.

We thought it was quite expensive to use the valet for one night despite it being extremely useful to us. We didn’t realise the spa is separate to the hotel and is open to the public.
