Moderately upscale, only complaint is lack of shower. Only tub and hand held wand. And if only there was a place in the UK or Europe that had wash cloths. Pluses = location, breakfast.

This is the place to stay

Night away from home, receptionist very polite & efficient, bar staff engaging & great cocktails (probably would have stayed longer if they did a cocktail hour) huge comfortable bed, would have liked larger pillows, found them an odd shape, but still comfortable. Just far enough out of the city to be away from too much noise.

We had a lovely short stay at the Gonville. The rooms were clean, well provisioned and had a good size for a couple. The location of the hotel couldn’t be more perfect for getting around central Cambridge! Breakfast was good, and we enjoyed the bar very much. The only snag we had was our shower wouldn’t go warm, but the hotel team were quick to assure they would get that fixed straight away! A very lovely service and stay, we would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Comfy and great location

Comfy, lovely hotel within a short walk from the centre, facing park area. Pros: Excellent breakfast and reception service. Gorgeous scented toiletries and very comfy bed. Great gardens for a sundowner. Car parking 2 min walk away (no charge from 6pm - 8am). Cons: Bar closed early at 23:00, in fact as soon as we walked in! Walls could do with a bit of soundproofing (could hear guests speaking next door although not too intrusive, I always bring ear plugs to hotels anyway). Milk and coffee sachets missing from refreshments so a keener eye for detail needed.
