Location ideal for duxford air museum which was the purpose of our weekend break. Near railway but never heard any noise despite being in a room at the front of the hotel. Staff very friendly. Suggest taking bookings for evening meals as when we asked we were told it was not necessary yet a lot of guests who were dining that evening complained as the service was very slow due to high demand.

Excellent location for meeting next day, close to motorway. Breakfast good, clean and tidy hotel/rooms built to high standard. Arrived fairly late to an empty bar and not a warm welcome from the staff. They were in hurry to close bar and finish for the night. Bedroom was tiny although bed very comfortable. Room was up two flights of stairs, hotel appeared almost empty of other guests so would have appreciated more convenient room. Could not get wifi working at all. Staff in the morning were better although very much 'going through the motions'. Could be excellent regular stop for me but they could do with working on the customer experience.

The food & service was excellent, but room 11, (up in the crows nest) was clean & tidy,but rather small. Handy for a quick stop-over but no longer.

Clean and modern decoration, warm and good bed. Old pub charm, good food and choise of Adnams beer. Very quiet overnight so I had a good sleep. Very convenient for the imperial war museum at Duxford, where I was working for a few days. Staff very good and helpful. Breakfast was the full English and included in the price. Only minor point - if you were staying for longer than a few days my room had no wardrobe.

Character, fittings and decor. Very close to branch line station. Car parking on site. Room very cold so had to move. The new room was lovely and warm however, and the temperature problem seemd to be genuinely unusual. Breakfast service a little slow leading to me missing my ordered breakfast due to time commitments. Very dissappointing as the experience of colleague's was good and the food seemed very good. Nice to be able to order omelettes, etc., but shame that I hadn't time to receive it.

A nice change from the identikit chains and it has had a major facelift, bringing it bang up to date. Extra staff in the morning would be helpful - the one staff member trying to take breakfast orders, deliver them and clear and simultaneously check people out was rushed off her feet!

The staff and management are very freindly and courteous at all times, It was a quiet and relaxed atmosphere and not too busy so you were not rushed at all . I liked one to the workers who made it an enjoyable stay as she was very happy to help you and assist me , I was a vegeatarian and they helped to supply me with an alternative breakfast without any hesitation.

The girls on reception/bar/waiting on were all very friendly and helpful No wardrobe in room, no teaspoons or bin in room, food very expensive and very limited for vegetarians, too near the railway line, no sign of any supervisors or management to answer concerns or complaints, no information in the room regarding breakfast times, vacation time etc

Location - excellent for IWM and train to Cambridge. Hotel room was clean and compact. Quite expensive - breakfast should be included for £89 a night. Should number keys clearly we were in 17 but could barely see the tiny room number written in biro which resulted in us trying to enter the wrong room which could have been embarassing. Finally the tea/coffee in the room was not replenished and the tea we made the previous day was left in the teapot for the length of our stay.

The hotel/pub had been reopened for just a week after our stay. The room was really well done, very clean and comfortable and the en suite matched that standard. Once the 'fresh paint' smell has died down after a few weeks it will be spot on. I think it is a reflection on the fact that the hotel had only just re- opened, but breakfast was a bit of a shambles (not in the quality of food, but in terms of service). The two waiting staff didn't keep an eye out on what needed to be doen (top up of milk/Juice/cutlery/etc). We ordered 2 english breakfasts at the same time but only one came out (after a long wait), and we had an equally long wait for the other. I pretty much had to tell them how to do their jobs which wasn't ideal.

“Very nice hotel, an ideal place to stay when visiting IWM Duxford. The staff was very friendly, the room was spacious, clean and nicely furnished and the breakfast very good with multiple options to choose from. Even wireless Internet was included in the room price and worked perfectly.” Nuutti, Helsinki |
