The reservation was for a spa hotel, but all the spa treatments booked for multiple days were broken, and the customer was not notified in advance.

Vacation with my wife. The view from the room is first-class. The service is very average. The elevator is broken. The bar on the rooftop has the best view, and it has never been open. The attitude is rather indifferent

The breakfast is average, normal standard, nothing special. The room is too small, it is rare to live in such a small room at this price. There was only one chair in the room, and the waiter asked for an extra chair. Judging from the picture posted on the door, we lived in the smallest room in the entire hotel. Really unhappy.

Quick helpful check in at reception. Lovely clean room with very comfy bed.
Spa area small but very cosy especially in the jacuzzi viewing the river.
Lovely food served on New Years Eve in Six restaurant although quite chilly seated near windows. Staff friendly -
keen to assist. Enjoyed a very pleasant weekend stay.

Room small for price paid, breakfast poor quality, heating didn't work, just one pack of biscuits and poor selection of tea and coffee in room

I had an excellent stay at The Varsity. Clean and comfortable room with good facilities. Complimentary access to the spa was also nice to have.

Pretty hotel in beautiful Cambridge but needing some TLC to command these prices. The valet left my car unlocked and the heating knocked all night long, making it a tricky sleep.

Lovely place very central.
No parking available at property unless you pay £29 for additional parking.
That is a a little hefty to be honest, and if you park in a residential bay outside, Phone is only £35.. breakfast is an additional cost after an already hefty room rate… £247.12 for one night.. without breakfast and without parking..
Nice central hotel- but circa £300 for a night away- is taking a liberty.. even if it did have a roll top bath 🛁
