The Fellows House Cambridge, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
"Clean, spotless and spacious apartment style room. Friendly, professional staff on reception and in restaurant; made us feel welcome and always happy to answer our questions. Good location, a pleasant half hour walk by the parks into city centre. Bus stop across road from hotel with fast bus journey into city centre but bus arrival times unreliable in weekday rush hour. Cot bed requested at booking was already in room on arrival. We left expressed milk in the room fridge after check out and the staff kindly kept it cool for us to collect when we got back. We were spoilt with delicious buffet breakfast with good selection of cooked items and cold cuts (incl smoked salmon), pastries, cereals. Decaf coffee and omelette or scrambled eggs to order. Plenty of room to seat two adults and pram at table. Lovely White Company toiletries. Convenient undercroft car park though not cheap considering room price. Needed to ask for washing up liquid and slippers, which took more than 30 minutes to be brought to room delaying us going out for dinner on the first night. Housekeeping could be haphazard, they changed used towels and robe hung on the rail, but didn't replace the face towels and robe (but left the belt), and we got an extra loo roll instead of the new box tissue we ran out of. Not sure the room is equipped for use of kitchenette without things like washing up liquid, sponge, chopping board or tea towel by default. Overall would highly recommend. Smart and clean."
