Great hotel in the heart of Cambridge. 10 mins walk from Colleges and tourist area. Smart, functional hotel with good service and full English breakfast along with cereal, canned juices, tea, coffee, cheeses, freshly made eggs by the chef, etc etc (but no eggs benedict!). Excellent air-conditioning. Expected higher water pressure in the shower. Very comfortable stay.

Our room was super comfortable and clean with everything we needed for a 2 night stay. The staff at this hotel are very friendly and helpful. Due to its great location to restaurants, etc., We didn't eat at the hotel. We did have a few drinks in the bar, which is very comfortable, but found that the drinks were fairly expensive. We parked the car (they have valet service) and walked everywhere. Superb location.
