Olivers Lodge Hotel  

Both members of staff were both very helpful during our stay. They made us feel very welcome throughout. The room was warm and clean and good value for money.

The cooked breakfast left a lot to be desired!

A basic hotel but clean and comfortable.

I'm used to a cold house so it was too warm for me!! daft complaint as i'm sure most people require warmth.

The communal areas have a cosy feel about them.

When we arrived the double bedroom was only made up for a single, so we had to request extra pillows, towels, cups etc. The kettle didn't work so we requested another one ready for the morning and this didn't work very well either. The shower was dreadful.

The location was very good for easy walking access to the centre of St Ives, and the delights that this historical town has to offer. The staff were very efficient and friendly, both on arrival and throughout my short stay. The room was comfortable and fit for purpose - warm, clean and with all the nick-nacks that one would expect for the price.

The location was good for a business trip, but if you're looking for a romantic setting, then I'd think twice! Facing onto a main road with a paved parking area at the front, the hotel has no garden. There is a seating area outside at the back of the hotel, although this is also a car parking area with a main road also running behind.

Pleasant staff and good breakfast, room was comfortable too.

Hotel was very handy for St.Ives centre.

Telly was very intermittent. I had to keep ringing reception every 10 minutes to get them to reset the fuse on the freeview box in a room next to reception.

The staff were pleasant and helpful.Lunch on the Sunday was good. The public areas were attractive and up to date.

The room we had was adequate but needs updating.For example there was no shaving point in the bathroom and the flow of water through the shower was weak.The toilet seat was a little wobbly.

Safe private parking.

Rather boring breakfast. No facilties or activities for children.

The staff tried their best...

The room was not as shown in the pictures on the booking website. There is no internet in the room, the tv didn't work, the shower didn't work, there brown/red spots on the bed lined, the towels were small and worn out, the pull cords for the lights in the bathroom were supposed to be white but were actually brown, the room furniture and decor was of 1980's vintage, the key for the door was on a big (filthy) white plastic fob. I complained to the manager who offered me a tenner off. I called booking.com who refused to accept any responsibility for the room at all, they said they are just a booking service and have no control over the way hotels sell themselves on their website. I won't be back to either the hotel of booking.com.

Pleasant staff. Comfortable bed and quiet room.

Some public areas a bit tied.

Freindliness of the staff and evening meal in the restaurant

excellent position on edge of St.Ives and easy bus ride into Cambridge.Polite and pleasant staff

I'm afraid the bathroom left a lot to be desired. The shower was probably the worst I've ever experienced. Although there was a nice bar, there wasn't a quiet lounge area as an alternative to sitting in the bedroom
