The hotel offers a decent stay for exploring the city and surrounding areas with convenient transport options, but the dining experience and the noise from the nearby road are drawbacks.

The hotel is conveniently located next to the A14, making it easy to access Cambridge and surrounding areas. The spacious rooms are equipped with essential amenities like a large TV, hair dryer, and tea/coffee facilities, perfect for a family stay. While the breakfast had room for improvement, the friendliness of the staff and cleanliness of the rooms stood out. The ample parking adds to the convenience, but the hotel's distance from downtown might not suit all travellers.

The hotel is conveniently located just outside the city centre in a lovely housing estate with easy access to the A14 and Cambridge. The rooms were clean and tidy, though slightly chilly, and I had a bit of a surprise with a used tissue on the bathroom floor. The service was excellent, with attentive staff and great efficiency in assisting guests, including carrying my electric scooter up stairs. The dining experience had its highs and lows, with a nice buffet-style option but some items being overcooked. The facility offered ample parking and well-lit surroundings, though a bit odd being on a large housing estate.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. The room was okay, as Premier rooms generally are, though I did encounter some unwelcome guests of the creepy-crawly variety. Downstairs in the restaurant and bar, it felt like a rundown inner city dive during closing time. Despite this, the room was quiet with a comfortable bed. The hotel's location is convenient for driving into Cambridge but a bit remote if you rely on public transport. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with an impressive breakfast spread but lacking in flavor. The facilities were adequate overall.

I've stayed at the hotel a few times now, and it's a great spot to rest and relax while touring the city and surrounding area. The staff is very helpful, and the breakfast buffet offers a wide variety of well-cooked options. The free car parking is a bonus, but the food quality could be improved.

The hotel is well-located on the outskirts, adjacent to the A14 but away from road noise. The rooms are clean, comfortable, with a choice of pillows for a restful sleep, and accessible without going through the town. However, the dining experience could be improved, especially when traveling with children. The staff is generous and attentive, offering unlimited tea and milk. The location is convenient, just three miles from the center of Cambridge, with easy parking options. The hotel facilities are satisfactory, and the price offers value for money.

My stay at the hotel was overall great. The rooms were excellent, so clean and had everything we could possibly want. The location was good, albeit a bit remote for the center of Cambridge, but with easy access to the A14. The service was very helpful and efficient, especially from Jordan.

The hotel is conveniently located for easy access from the A14 and a short distance from Cambridge. The rooms are in good condition with comfortable low noise levels, though they face the A14 which can be noisy even with the windows closed. The service was attentive and accommodating throughout our stay. The location is ideal for travelers using the A14 as a starting point for various directions, but it is in a quiet residential area with limited nearby activities. The dining experience was average, with some dishes being below expectations. The hotel offers decent facilities for guests.
