Cambridge Quy Mill Hotel & Spa in Cambridge

10/10 Excellent
"We chose this hotel for a bit of self-indulgence, and the weekend felt like we'd had a full restful weekend. It's quiet, and there's everything you need right there. The food is great; as a vegetarian, I appreciated the tasty tagine, and my carnivore partner had plenty to choose from. The gym is well-equipped, and the pool is lovely. We'll be back soon to try a spa treatment as well. Also, the staff were amazing."

"Large and spacious hotel with welcoming vibe. My room was very comfortable, especially the bed. It was quiet and had useful things such as an iron. Great bathroom. High quality fixtures and fittings. All very modern and clean. Large choice of well prepared food at breakfast. Fast, friendly and efficient check out. Hotels.com, on the other hand, was nightmare. Messed up my booking, accused me and the hotel of lying about it and took nearly a week to refund me."

8/10 Good
"Hotel was very easy to get to with plenty of parking, lovely furniture and decor all around. To the rear of property was a small lake with Fish which you could feed if asked reception for food for them. Room was really clean and very good as it had both bath with shower and a seperate shower. Large tv and comfy beds. Pool was slightly smaller than i expected but nice and warm. Changing rooms needed someone to regularly attend and clean especially as bins were always full. Restaurant was very nice could do with a bigger menu however food was tasty and reasonably priced. Breakfast had plenty choices however for some items there was an additional charge which i thought was a bit cheeky. Quiet location from the hustle n bustle 9f Cambridge but not much in the immediate vicinity other than Morrisons. The only downside to hotel when i was there was that both lifts were not working for 2 days which with heavy suitcase or anyone with disabilities getting upstairs was a major issue. Was informed that help with the evacuchair could be used to get downstairs but this seemed a bit excessive. All in all a pretty good hotel and i would stay here again."
