The Dukes Head Hotel

The Dukes Head Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely hotel, needs a little TLC in places, our shower flooded and there’s some obvious water damage on the bedroom wall the other side as a result but the room was nice and comfortable. The staff were fantastic, everyone so friendly and helpful. We didn’t eat in the hotel so can’t speak for the food but the bar was nice, lovely cocktail Great location as well being right in the centre. Will definitely be revisiting"

10/10 Excellent
"Work in Cambridge for one night, friend have the Wedding there a couple years back. So we decided to stay at the hotel. Location wise is a 10 out of 10, very close to Kings College, only about five minutes walk. Walking to the shopping centre is also around five minutes where you can find all the shops. Our room was facing the Riverside, which was pretty quiet during the night. Parking was pretty easy only that £26 was a little bit steep. Overall, I think the hotel was up to its reputation and most likely we will be visiting again."

Lamb Hotel by Greene King Inns

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed for one night, but wished we had stayed longer. All the staff were wonderful and nothing was too much trouble. He dined at the Lamb in the evening and the food and service were excellent. There was plenty of choice for breakfast with a range of additional cooked options. We had great views from our room which was very quiet."
