The location was great. the room was clean. The bathroom was tiny and I am not a big person 5ft 4 56 kilos. Staff were not friendly. The only bar was outside in September. We chose the hotel for parking and location but when we got there there were not parking spaces. We got a space the next day and were charged £26 for one night. We should have stayed in the multi storey which was cheaper. There were no VIP benefits

The rooms are nice. However the bar area was being refurbished and so there was nowhere for us to go with our dog except the outside bar that had been put up as an alternative. This was untidy and not up to the standard of the rest of the hotel. The menu was limited with small portions and not value for money. Had we been told about the bar refurbishment when we booked we would have looked elsewhere. Also £26 per night for parking and £25 per night for the dog was rather excessive! We have stayed at this hotel before but the current owners are not doing it justice.

The hotel was in a beautiful location opposite the par and was very conveniently placed close to all the sites of our interest. The hotel however had a serious problem with hot water supply in the shower and despite the maintenance crew visit this was not resolved within the period of our stay.

We Love this hotel great service great staff well trained. The only reason for the less than excellent is, the rooms were so dark and I mean not enough lighting. It was impossible to read. It may have to do with the energy conservation, and I admire that. But not being able to read in the room is a negative.

Disappointing
We had been to the Gonville hotel many times before; our go-to hotel in Cambridge. We were surprised and disappointed that the service and cleanliness were much poorer than previous visits. There were food crumbs and a plaster in the lift the whole time we were there, so not checked or cleaned. Breakfast choices were far less than previous trips. The continental breakfast items had clearly been out a long time with no cover. Items were not replenished, so basics like bread and jam ran out. Lots of staff but no one taking responsibility for replenishing items! There were no teaspoons on the tables. When asked, a staff member said they were short of them! Not difficult to go to a shop and buy a few more is it?! The main restaurant only serves Peruvian food - we had booked, looking forward to it but after perusing the menu, with little choice, we left and went elsewhere. We would expect a variety of different kinds of dishes at such a hotel restaurant! This may seem trivial, but they add up and we were disappointed, having brought my mother in law for a weekend treat and being embarrassed that it wasn’t any where as good as before. I would expect more from an expensive 4-star hotel! We found out the hotel had recently changed hands so that explained it! Now part of a chain of 4 hotels. Bring back the previous management! We won’t be back.

I was really surprised to receive a call from the hotel prior to my visit. (Never had this before.) And I didn't appreciate the upselling techniques used by staff. Did I want to book dinner in the hotel? Did I want to book breakfast? Did I want to book a ride in the vintage Bentley??? I was asked twice during check-in if I wanted to book breakfast... No! I booked room only. The room itself was lovely, very modern and stylish. A shame that we paid for a superior room and then had machinery/equipment that was noisy all night. And even more disappointing that staff came across as indifferent. I'm not interested in being told that the matter will be reported to maintenance. I would have preferred not to have had an issue in the first place. I wouldn't recommend this hotel.
