"Stayed here while attending an appointment at Papworth Hospital and had a great experience. The hotel was excellent value for money, in a peaceful location, and the room was clean, comfortable, and well presented. The staff were lovely, and having a bar and restaurant on site was a real bonus. We ordered drinks and dessert, both of which were delicious. I would happily stay here again if the price is right."

Top Market Square Hotel Reviews

Radisson Blu Hotel London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect stay before boarding our plane"

Hampton by Hilton London Stansted Airport

8/10 Good

"The hotel itself is excellent but how to get there from the airport is challenging especially if you travelling with big baggage. It is walking distance from the airport but to get there we had to take so many stairs because the lifts were out of use and the airport staff weren't very helpful either, they give mix informations on how to get to the hotel."

DeSalis Hotel London Stansted

10/10 Excellent

"Great stopover hotel for Stansted Airport"

B&B Hotel Cambridge South

8/10 Good

"One point to note first - despite the name, this is nowhere close to Cambridge South station, but is right next to Whittlehurst Parkway - there is little within walking distance in the surrounding area, so best if you have a car, but there are regular trains to cambridge that take 10-15 minutes. The hotel itself is fine, clean and modern. Staff friendly, small bar at the reception if you want a drink or coffee."

Holiday Inn Express Cambridge by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast is amazing! Services is great!"
