Very good

The hotel itself was fine...but the sofa bed was not big enough for two (even teenagers) to share. Barely bigger than a single bed. Hotel did provide some extra duvets to allow someone to sleep in the floor.
Check in was late on the Friday, just after 9 but the kitchen still did me some food that was convenient for them which I enjoyed and very appreciated.
Breakfast was excellent, quick to replace missing items as a lot had got caught out with the hour changing on Sunday.
Very clean and extremely comfy bed. Staff were very helpful. There could have been more vegetarian hot breakfast items. Would definitely stay here again.
property was easy to book, room was clean, staff helpful and pleasant , disappointed with breakfast - hot food on cold plates and milk and jams running out

Liked: Amenities
Easy access , staff very good, rooms require bit updating and pressure on the shower was really poor
Good welcome on arrival. Clean hotel and room.
Bed very hard and duvet too small for the double bed.
Good breakfast selection and all staff helpful.
No comfy chairs in the room. One hard dining type and one pc type. Both not as described in advert.
However, good value for money and the breakfast is excellent.
Good cheap parking too.
We liked the room and the breakfast options. The staff were also very helpful and friendly. We didn’t like the location as it was out of town and away from bus access, so we had to use taxis to get to/from Cambridge.
We just stayed for 1 night at the Holiday Inn. The staff were amazing including Candice, Herbert and Mattao. They were so helpful, professional and kind. The breakfast was spot on with many different hit and cold food and drinks options available. Although situated on an industrial estate, it was within easy acess to get to Cambridge. We waljed from Cambridge city centre to tge hotel on one occasion which was pleasant and only took 45 minutes. The rooms were spotless and could not fault anything aboout this hotel. Pleasantly surprised. Well worth a stay. Highly recommended, especially because of the staff who were amazing. They are a credit to the Holiday Inn.
