The bedroom was large, warm and the bed and facilities were very good indeed. The hotel facilities and service are not too bad either. It borders on luxurious in my opinion. Perfectly placed train station and the centre of Cambridge with all its restaurants and shops.

Excellent service for check-in and breakfast. Supremely comfortable Executive room and bed/sleep. Awful morning coffee (Machine) with one machine broken the other gave up for a while. Please go back to serving pots of coffee to the table please. Spoils what is my go to hotel in Cambridge.
