Sep 19, 2026The hotel was in a great location but parking at the local multi-storey was very expensive.
The breakfast was lovely but our evening meal was very disappointing as there wasn’t much left on the menu. What we did have was very bland.
The staff were very friendly and our room was lovely but did overlook people in the restaurant which was a bit invasive.

May 31, 2026Central location. Easy transfer from Trumpington Park & Ride.
Easy check in. Comfortable room 201. Breakfast good, although not always easy for the staff to manage and maintain.
2 pay points in Oz & Isle would help service.
Room 201 underfloor heating kept switching on. Bath was slippery when showering.
Thank you for looking after us.

Jun 8, 2026Beautiful building, lovely room, clean and spacious. unfortunately the underfloor heating in the bathroom would not turn off, we had the air con on 16 in our room the entire stay however our room was still very warm and the bathroom unbearable. Reception stated this is an issue they are aware of but don’t know where the heat is coming from, maybe that room should be closed until it can be fixed.

Jun 14, 2026The hotel has only been open about 6mths. The room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was just like brand new. Shower was powerful.
The location is prefect for exploring Cambridge, only about 5-10 mins walk from the centre but the design of the rooms shelter you from any noise from the main road.
Staff were extremely friendly, helpful and professional.
The only disappointment was the breakfast, having pre paid for breakfast, found out they only offered a very limited cooked options (fried eggs, bacon, mushroom and tomatoes). If you wanted any of the other cooked options, they were extra.
Having said that I may have misunderstood what the pre-paided breakfast included.
Overall highly recommend this hotel. Great location, beautiful building and professional staff.
Nearly forgot to mention the relaxing and beautiful restaurant/bar area.

Dec 15, 2025Good location and lovely property
It’s a new venue and unfortunately they still have some teething issues . Had to get 4 different keys ,lift not working and leak in reception which unfortunately has ruined a lovely oak table.
Room was great though well laid out and had everything you needed including kettle coffee machine microwave and clothes steamer.
We would stay again

Jan 16, 2026Great check in experience. Got there before 1pm and my room was ready. The staff ran through all I needed to know about the hotel and virtually took me to my room.
The room was clean and comfortable, which had a small kitchenette. Nice to have a Nespresso machine, great touch. I had a great nights sleep in a lovely bed, what more could you want. The shower was easy to use even for me! You push a button and works! Brilliant.
The building itself is stunning, especially the restaurant/bar which has lots of history. All the staff there are so helpful and kind, I’ll be coming back that’s for sure.
I highly recommend this hotel.

Jan 18, 2026I'd booked this weekend for my boyfriend's birthday. Great location, small room, clean other than a hair in the shower upon entering. Shower was terrible, had to use the hand attachment which would make hair washing tricky. Toilet constantly trying to fill up (did mention shower & toilet to receptionist, but there was no improvement). I'd also asked for something to be left in the room for my boyfriends birthday & exoected to pay, but this was nlt done.

Jun 28, 2026We mini-mooned at The Hobson and had a such a good experience we booked an extra night! Beautiful buildings, rooms and wonderful service. Chris behind the front desk couldn't do enough for us, taking pictures of us in our wedding finery in the impressive setting and making us feel very special. The restaurant is reasonably priced for such high-quality food. Try the octopus!
