Comfortable room. Clean. Little out of town.
Service good. Food good. Staff very friendly and helpful.
When booked bill stated price was £89:25 including VAT
However card charged £105 receptionist was very helpful when this was pointed out the following morning and agreed to make enquiries on my behalf and get back to me. I have yet to hear from company to discuss the reason for the overpayment. But guessing this may take a couple of days.
I stayed at the Holiday Inn Cambridge during my visit – tucked away in a very quiet, wooded area outside the city. While it offered a peaceful environment and a decent breakfast to start the day ☕🍳, the location felt quite remote – especially at night, when it was eerily silent and surrounded by trees. 🌌🌳
The hotel itself was clean and comfortable, with friendly staff and all the basics covered. Just a heads-up: it’s quite a distance from central Cambridge, so be sure to plan your travel accordingly, especially if you're not driving.

Beautifully themed rooms, which elevate what would actually be a rather small room, and made it feel like a quaint and cosy boutique hotel. Loved the balcony overlooking the river, giving us a unique view of greenery and water. And the beds were super comfy. Appreciated the Nespresso machine, the wide choice of teas and the complimentary water and biscuits, plus,the property is a short stroll to the centre of town. Would definitely stay here again.
Service was basic but expected of a budget hotel. Hotel was small but cosy. I liked that they had a proper desk that I could use since I am studying at Cambridge but didn’t manage to get a college room.
Bed was surprisingly comfortable despite being basic.
There are only 2 lifts which may be slow if there are large groups of people using it.
Location is near train station so that’s a plus point.
Mixed Experience – Some Great Aspects but Room for Improvement
We recently stayed at the Novotel Cambridge North and had a mixed experience. The hotel has a lot going for it—modern facilities, a good location just north of the city centre, and excellent breakfast options that really stood out. The pool area is great for kids, and the sauna and jacuzzi were enjoyable touches that added value to our stay.
However, there were a few letdowns. While staff were generally friendly, some follow-through was lacking—for example, we requested dressing gowns and slippers, and refills of the shower gel and shampoo which were promised but never delivered.
The hotel uses a strange single-use key card system for the leisure facilities, which caused repeated issues. Cards were frequently deactivated, leaving guests locked out of the pool and gym areas. We often had to rely on others to let us in, or vice versa, which became frustrating.
Also worth noting: there is no on-site parking available, which should be clearly stated in advance for future guests.
Overall, the hotel offers decent value for money, especially for families, and the convenient public transport links (bus and train) make it easy to get into the city. With some improvements in service and clearer communication, this could be an excellent place to stay

The location is perfect for walking to the centre, the reception can provide the basic stuff for us when we check in for example toothbrush, shaver set, etc, so we did not need to ask after entering the room
It's very expensive for the location. The room was as expected but the duvet could have been a bit heavier and warmer. Breakfast was well cooked and had variety to choose from. Overall, excellent and great service. I'll definitely recommend to my friends and family and I will definitely visit again soon.
Highly recommended! After being in the UK for over two weeks, this is definitely my favorite hotel. To get here from the train station, you can take bus U1 or U2. If you're exploring for a day or two, just buy a day pass directly on the bus; it costs a little over £8 for two people. The hotel no longer provides these passes itself. You can cook here, and there's a supermarket right downstairs, which is incredibly convenient. To get to the campus for a stroll, simply take the bus. It's a good idea to check Google Maps for bus times in advance; although the buses might not be super frequent, they are quite punctual, making getting around very easy. I would certainly choose this hotel again if I return to Cambridge, and the surrounding area is also very pleasant.
We got there very late due to traffic from a road traffic accident. Everything very good and quick service from reception.

LLuis OrlandoCambridge is an expensive town. That said, the price of the room did not reflect the amenities or the size of the room. Basically, the bathroom was so small as to be useless, and the bedroom very poorly lit and felt cluttered.
The hotel is on top of a very cozy pub near Jesus Green, and within a comfortable walk to city centre. The room was clean and relatively quiet (the pub/hotel are located at a big intersection with frequent traffic).
It would be ideal if the room price was closer to 100£, rather than 200£…
MMarieStayed as close to Huntingdon Racecourse as where our cycle ride was starting. The room was clean and spacious. The bathroom was small and a little tired, the shower was OK, no flexibility with it, so had to wash my hair, which had only just been cut 4 hours ago. The breakfast was cereals, toast, packeted croissant, tea, coffee and fresh fruit juice. Really good value for the price. When booking the initial price changed which was frustrating, but still extremely good value for a last minute booking.
GGuest UserMy husband and I enjoyed our stay. The jacuzzi was lovely and the sauna + pool too. Breakfast was good and hot. Large rooms and friendly staff. Would stay again.
GGuest UserLovely restaurant and staff were friendly and attentive. Wi fi not brilliant and the windows could do with replacement but I’d still recommend this hotel. Great thing was the electric car charging facility as they charged a reasonable rate and the car was fully charged overnight. Having an electric car, I know how invaluable it is when travelling and you need to charge ready for the next day. Cheaper than a station forecourt and very convenient.
