This hotel is cheap and cheerful. If you want the Dorchester then pay Dorchester prices. It's a tad worn in places but it's clean with good friendly staff.

Great place to stay in Cambridge.
Lovely welcome. Efficient check in. The room was immaculate and looked newly refurbished. Quiet. Very comfortable bed. And with the benefit of delicious food in the Chinese restaurant below, with excellent staff. Thank you! Near Addenbrookes hospital and also near city centre, on a good bus route for both. Parking at the rear.

A quiet night
Because it's an older building there is no lift. That did not lessen my pleasure during the stay. Staff were courteous and welcoming. The room was clean and quiet. The water pressure was a little low, but I still had a good shower. Overall an enjoyable experience.
