Booked as a surprise by my lovely husband for my 30th Birthday. Am 7 months pregnant so wanted luxury and got it! Yes the hotel is expensive - we stayed in the Senior Fellow Suite, but the service and extras are worth it. The room was very large, clean and well laid out with good storage. The bathroom was amazing... More

I, along with 17 others, attended a cocktail and dinner evening at the Varsity on Saturday, 4 May 2013. Leading up to the event and to coordinate it I dealt with Kim Askew, who I can only highly commend and say that she did the most outstanding job in helping me coordinate a wonderful and thoroughly enjoyable evening. Kim, along... More

Absolutely spotless and huge comfortable bed. Nice touch to be able to order fresh milk and biscuits. Staff were friendly and helpful. Superb breakfast in restaurant overlooking the river. You have to... More

Although more expensive that I would usually pay I really enjoyed this hotel. It's not opulent, not flashy, no huge entrance hall, but just clean, superbly situated, helpful staff, lovely rooms, fabulously comfy beds. The valet parking was brilliant and well worth it. The view from the higher rooms is great. If you can, you must get a drink from... More

Splendidly positioned hotel in the centre of Cambridge near Magdalene College with ravishing views over the city, Midsummer Common and the Cam. We stayed in the Master’s Suite on the penultimate floor with a balcony running the length of the room which is fronted by floor to ceiling windows on 2 sides. Excellent service with valet parking, drinks and canapés... More

Stayed here for business. Stunning room, comfortable bed, great light, very clean. Good food. Staff are very helpful. Excellent hotel for both business and leisure. Nothing to complain about. Will stay again.

my friend booked us both in for a facial each and they were both fantastic as were the massages we had . The spa though ( for which we had to pay £15 each) was a really poor affair. The changing rooms felt like ordinary swimming pool changing rooms with nothing special about them. I was told I couldnt take... More

Stayed here as a great for my partner's birthday & I'd booked us a fellows super king room so I was expecting good things. Valet parking was great & saved £ compared to the nearest car parks. I was worried about getting a parking ticket whilst I checked in & sorted the valet parking but the receptionist had my car... More

I am SO late in writing this review. But bear with me so that I may report the following: this is the cleanest hotel that I have ever stayed in, hands down. The staff was rather icy in demeanor (hence my "Service" rating), but, at the end of the day, who cares? The room was comfortable and spotless, and I... More
