Clayton Hotel Cambridge ★★★★

📍 27-29 Station Rd, Cambridge

"This was the worst hotel stay I've ever had, and the hotel's handling of the situation was utterly disappointing. Upon check-in, the front desk asked if we wanted housekeeping, and we explicitly declined. However, when we returned to our room the next day, it was clear that housekeeping had entered and tidied up. I discovered that a pair of disposable underwear I had left in the room, and more critically, my eye drops for a chronic eye condition, were missing. With the eye drops gone, I had no medication that night, which led to immense pain and suffering. We immediately complained to the front desk, hoping to recover the medication or get an explanation. The hotel said they would speak with the cleaning staff, but the final response was a denial that they had discarded my eye drops. What disappointed us most was that while we waited for a resolution, a staff member said they would go investigate, but no one ever followed up or responded to us again, even until our check-out. I can understand items being lost, but what I find unacceptable is the hotel's attitude in handling the problem. They refused to admit fault, disregarded a guest's suffering, and didn't even provide basic respect or a follow-up response. This behavior is far more disheartening than the loss of the items themselves. I urge everyone to choose this hotel with extreme caution."

Hyatt Centric Cambridge ★★★★

📍 EN, 37 Eddington Ave, Cambridge

"The room was nice, quite spacious, and very new, with a light blue oceanic theme. The location was decent; there's a bus stop right outside with direct service to the city center. The only downside was that there was only one restaurant nearby, an Italian pizzeria, but thankfully the food was really good."

"Fantastic hotel with unbeatable views! When checking out, I asked the front desk for a room key as a souvenir, but they ended up giving me a whole bunch. I joked that I only knew Newton, and the front desk staff patiently introduced me to each scientist. Haha!"

Ibis Cambridge Central Station

Ibis Cambridge Central Station ★★★

📍 2 Station Sq, Cambridge

"The management's service awareness is abysmal, and the service and complaint handling were extremely disappointing. Their attitude was arrogant, showing no empathy for the unexpected situations faced by guests, and constantly using hotel policies as excuses to shirk responsibility. This was, without a doubt, the most infuriating and disappointing hotel experience I've had in many years. I had booked a twin room for 4 nights, from August 13th to 16th, and it was fully prepaid. Later, I realized I had made a mistake and requested to cancel the entire order or modify it to reduce it by two nights. After several communications, the hotel firmly refused, which I understood, as it was my fault. So, I told the hotel that if I couldn't stay for those days, I might have a friend stay instead. But I never said I wasn't coming at all. On the evening of August 13th, I arrived at London Gatwick Airport, only to find that all trains from the UK to Cambridge were temporarily canceled, preventing me from reaching the hotel. I contacted the hotel, requesting to cancel only the night of August 13th, but this request was also denied. I had plans in London afterwards, and with train delays, I finally arrived at the hotel late on the night of August 15th. I was then informed by the hotel that my reserved twin room was no longer available, and they only had a single room, but could add a small extra bed for us. I was utterly bewildered at that point. I had paid for 4 full nights, yet I couldn't get the room type I booked. Moreover, we were assigned to a corner room in a remote location, and after a long day, we had to walk quite a distance to reach it. That night, my 17-year-old daughter and I had to squeeze into a small room with an added temporary bed, which was a terrible experience. The next morning, I spoke to the Assistant General Manager, hoping to resolve the issue amicably. However, they claimed the hotel thought I wasn't coming and wasn't aware of my exact arrival date, stating that I needed to proactively inform them of my itinerary and arrival time, and that the hotel was not obligated to proactively contact guests to verify information or hold reserved rooms. The only solution they offered was to switch us to a twin room on the evening of August 16th. On August 16th, I was in London during the day, planning to take a later train back to the hotel. Without any prior notice and in our absence, the hotel directly swapped our room and assigned us to room 444, a number considered highly inauspicious for Chinese people. Throughout this entire ordeal, the hotel consistently prioritized its own policies, showing absolutely no empathy for the unexpected difficulties faced by guests. Furthermore, despite paying for 4 nights, I only stayed for 2, and even then, I couldn't get the room I booked. The management's level of service awareness is truly frustrating and infuriating!"

Hilton Cambridge City Centre ★★★★

📍 20 Downing St, Cambridge

"The hotel is right in the center of Cambridge, so the location is great. The lobby is on the second floor. Overall, it's pretty standard. The room size is decent for the UK, but the amenities are quite basic, and it's a bit pricey. Still, compared to other hotels, it's acceptable."

Clayton Hotel Cambridge ★★★★
"The restaurant service was friendly, but the food was just so-so. The hotel itself is quite new, and the room was very clean, with housekeeping tidying up daily (without any 'save energy' requests). The room window was small and couldn't be opened. There's no kitchen, washing machine, or bathtub. The wardrobe is small, and the fridge didn't seem to cool very well. The location is super convenient, just a 5-minute walk from the train station, and the bus stop is only 3 minutes away. There's a supermarket and a cafe right downstairs. It's a 20-minute walk to the city center, or a 4-minute Uber ride. There aren't any other restaurants nearby, so you'll definitely need to head into the city center for dining options!"

"The room decor was quite distinctive and to my taste. We stayed in one of the slightly larger rooms, but it still felt a bit cramped because the bathroom and balcony were incorporated, making the space feel tight. The environment is nice, being close to the river, which is quite picturesque. If you prioritize the surroundings, it's a good choice. However, the bed was too soft and uncomfortable to sleep on, and the staff's attitude was also rather unenthusiastic."

"They charged 18 yuan for a toothbrush. Is that a joke? Are you kidding me? Is your toothbrush made of gold to cost me 18 yuan? And there wasn't even a tissue box in the room. What a laugh, seriously."

Hotel du Vin & Bistro Cambridge ★★★★
"The hotel is artistic, conveniently located and retro British. The toiletries used are all from L'Occitane. It is a very clean and comfortable hotel. The meals are mainly British cuisine. There are also many Chinese restaurants, Italian and Spanish restaurants around. There is a bus to the train station at the door, so it is very friendly when dragging a large suitcase."
