“The hotel's riverside location, steps from Cambridge's heart, is a real draw, enhanced by the beautiful outdoor spaces. I particularly appreciate the blend of local historical touches within a modern hotel, and the garden restaurant with its Marco Pierre White pedigree is a nice touch. For those seeking a Cambridge base with both charm and convenience, this would be a great choice.”
