Loved the Art Deco illustrations throughout the public areas. One of the best designed art hangings I’ve seen outside a museum! Loved my view over Parker’s Piece of students cycling to lectures and playing sport. Staff were generally very kind and helpful.

It is beautifully decorated, but need to keep up with the maintenance to keep it at the right level. eg carpets are pale and starting to look stained.

Great hotel, very conveniently located however, we were a little disappointed with the restaurant. We’ve stayed there before and had a wonderful dinner at the restaurant but this time it was a little disappointing unfortunately

Kate, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved the hotel and the room, one thing I felt wasn't customer focused was a pre£35 charge for having a pet ( fine after if she fouled but usually it's complimentary or £10), and£40 overnight parking. Excessive. Everything else was superb.
Keith, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice location next to the park. Cambridge is small so the main hotels are all close. Room was big but finishes a bit worn. Shower was nice size. Breakfast was nice

Fabulous Hotel and Experience

The University Arms is truly a fabulous experience. For us the staff were attentive and friendly. Alway available to help. The breakfast experience was the one of the best. The staff have a great team spirit to watch.
Raymond, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Modern central location with the river about a 15m walk away. Comfy beds, and quiet in a high room. Breakfast at £25pp is expensive for hot buffet, and doesn't include cooked items on menu which are a further £13 or so. Limited parking on site at £40/day, or within 7 min walk across the green at around £25/day (EV chargers here).
Matthew, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Food at the Tavern is truly amazing. Rooms aren't great - curtains don't close properly so you get woken up early. Also, no sound insulation so we can hear every step from the person staying the floor above. Breakfast options are very limited. Drinks/mocktails at the bar are not great - too sweat.
