Overall had a wonderful stay and look forward to returning
Pros:

Beautiful room. Great bar area. Fabulous staff

Cons:

The only slight downside is there is no parking and it’s expensive to park in the hotel next door so we parked out of town which was a bit of a faff

A good visit however don’t use the restaurant if you have dietary requirements
Pros:

Great location

Cons:

Even with notice, the restaurant was hopeless in catering for allergies. All food is prepared off site and brought in. I can only assume they do not employ chefs!

A totally comfortable place to stay for a short time in Cambridge.
Pros:

Cosy atmosphere. Comfortable room [good shower] and bed. Helpful staff. Excellent light breakfast [good coffee] and good evening meal in a very pleasant bistro. Close to the Fitzwilliam museum and an easy walk into town.

Cons:

It would have been good if the library had been available [it was being used for a private function - although fair enough].
I believe it would have been kind to guests and staff if a toilet brush had been put beside the toilet.

Sadly we would not stay again.
Pros:

Location and room decor very good. Staff friendly.

Cons:

Our room had a persistent ‘knocking’ noise repeating every few minutes. Despite speaking to reception staff multiple times, and being told that maintenance would sort it out whilst we were out for the evening this didn’t happen. We were out late into the evening and returned to the banging, which continued until our departure.
Mentioned again at checkout to be told this was a known problem with air trapped in the pipes in our room. No apology.
Very disappointing as this was a trip for a special occasion.

Pros:

Location was good, very close to centre of Cambridge, friendly staff

Cons:

We stayed in the signature suite, disappointed with a couple of things, in the bathroom the shower dial was chipped, the sink was cracked and the toilet seat didn’t fit, not what I would expect for a room that is charged at over £400 a night.
