Summary: The room was great and spacious, but it was poorly located as it was too close to reception
Lynn Oct 11, 2025 03:02:05 PM
Summary: Staff were excellent, helpful and friendly. The rooms were fairly dark which made reading difficult. My only negatives would be the bathroom was very small with no hanging space and the wet towels I’d put on the shower floor to be replaced were refolded and put back to reuse. Also, our toilet roll wasn’t replaced. These were very quickly replaced when mentioned to reception though.

Summary: Good comfortable room. Dinner was good but a one page menu. Breakfast was a joke. For this quality of hotel I don't expect to be queuing up at the single coffee machine for a drink. The hot breakfast was good but the cold items availability was low as items ran out and took some time to replenish. Also note thank parking comes with an extra charge.

Summary: Stayed at the Gonville as we are looking at using it a family base for a wedding next year. Great hotel, great staff. If you stay there, take the complimentary Bentley tour, fantastic touch and a very knowledgeable driver Michael.

Summary: We enjoyed a wonderful stay at The Gonville. The hotel was excellent in every respect- beautiful decor, great restaurants and convenient parking. However, the outstanding aspect of the hotel was the wonderful staff. Every person we dealt with from the receptionists, to the barmen, to the housekeeper delivered perfect customer service. I’d especially like to thank Dante (?) the receptionist for taking care of us. Highly recommend The Gonville, Cambridge!

Summary: The room was lovely and the shower worked well. We were happily surprised to have a “pillow menu” from which we could choose different pillows from 6 options. That was a first. The breakfast should have been great, with items cooked to order, but my eggs Benedict were so bad, I stopped after one bite. The hollandaise tasted like it had vinegar in it. The croissants from the buffet were stale, so I ended up making myself toast for breakfast. The continental buffet is £15 and goes up to £20 with the menu. I don’t recall what we paid when we booked, but it was too much.

Summary: Beautiful chic rooms, wonderful staff. Pillow menu with firm foam pillow option was amazing! I hate most hotel pillows but they nailed it. Parking was busy (Saturday) but luckily we got the last space. Lovely bar!
Alberto Sep 11, 2025 04:07:52 PM
Summary: Better than expected! Ample rooms Great shower
michelle Aug 23, 2025 11:20:44 PM
Summary: Lovely atmosphere. Nice size room, very small bathroom. The air did not work after calling the desk twice and no fix. We resorted to calling for a portable fan so that we could sleep for the night.

Summary: Beautiful accommodation with friendly staff
