Have stayed there on numerous occasions and the rooms are cosy but lovely and perfect for me on my own. Great location too, easy to cross the river and be in town in under 10mins. I will def stay there again. Staff even helped me getting a taxi to the station this morn when i thought i would miss my train bit i just made it!! So thank for that guys and thanks for a lovely stay in Cambridge! ##### philip Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan Nov 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed overnight here so we could catch a nearby folk music gig. Everything was outstanding! If you're looking for that "Sign of the Prancing Pony" romantic inn experience, this is it. I half-expected to see Aragorn ensconced in the corner. Breakfast was absolutely terrific: my wife had the vegetarian full English and I had the regular, both superb. Strong, flavorful coffee made fresh. Staff were always helpful and friendly. We'd definitely stay here again in Cambridge! ##### Ryan Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David Aug 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Good value room above a pub A nice, good value room above a pub with a central location, and easy walking to Cambridge sights. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MAXIM Aug 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely place.
