Top Cambridge Hotel Reviews

ibis Cambridge Central Station

ibis Cambridge Central Station

8/10 Good
"The room was nice, the location was excellent. Very secure, you have to use your rm key to get beyond the ground floor to the rms. Also the hotel is in the same little square as the train station. My only complaint is that there's so much going on in the front of the hotel we thought it was a restaurant. Then we realized that the entrance to the Chillis was actually the entrance to the hotel. Other than that the place is great, and in fantastic proximity to the train station, a small Sainsburys and cafes . Would definitely recommend and if we ever come back would not hesitate to stay there again"
