The facilities are a bit dated, but it did not bother my stay.

Superb location, just by Cambridge city center. Exceptional staff, nice and frugal room for a nice rest. Hotel is clean and easy to access. Recommended for business travelling.

Cambridge, like so many other university towns (see how much a room is in St Andrew's, for example), is expensive to stay in. So in relative terms, it was good value. The room was a (very) small single, bordering on the claustrophobic. For example, the bathroom door couldn't open completely because of the location of the bed.

Although the room was small, it had everything the weary traveller needed. The shower was excellent. In terms of location, anyone who knows Cambridge will know just how far the railway station is from the town centre. The hotel is conveniently located about halfway between the two.

The only negative is the towels aren’t big enough. I get this in most places I stay but as a larger lady I need a bigger towel

The location was excellent, the rooms were really nice. It was lovely and clean . Great price for a 3 star hotel

You can hear noise from other adjacent bathrooms but it's not a problem if you use ear plugs.

Location was great, the bed was comfy and the room very clean and plenty of space as a solo traveler.

The hotel is in an historic house, which meant that everything is small and creaky. In the morning, you hear the floorboards creaking as other travellers descend for breakfast. My room was also designed for someone smaller than 6ft - there was barely enough space between bath and toilet (perhaps just a shower would be sufficient), and I am surprised I did not bump my head using the staircase down to reception.

The Hotel is in a great location between the station, city centre and colleges. The staff were super friendly and the whole hotel was very clean. The optional breakfast was unspectacular, but worth the price (I paid £7 in 2024). The room was clean and generally comfortable. Perfect for short/business stays.

Great location, easy walking distance to everything central. Room was really nice, coffee and tea making facilities in the room. Although the bathroom was a little small the shower was excellent.

The Continental breakfast was excellent value. The location was excellent.

Stayed in April 2024

Breakfast - disappointing - a poor English idea of a continental spread - just 2 sorts of ham one of sliced cheese, plus a few gherkins and olives - cold hard boiled eggs - yesterday's bread reheated. Individual cups of tea by self-service and tea-bags.

Booking worked well, I was expected and very quickly registered. Bed fine, though too many cushions.

The mattress on the bed was very soft and the bed was on wheels and was moving around too easily on the floor boards. However, I understand that there are people who prefer the softer and bouncy mattresses. The breakfast was simple but was perfectly OK for the price.

Excellent location, clean room and bathroom, very nice staff.

The only window in my bedroom was firmly locked with a sign indicating it could never be opened. The room was stuffy and the air conditioning made for a noisy night! Genuine fresh air should be accessible to all.

My request for a quiet room, for a small additional charge, was successful. My room was situated at the rear of the hotel on the first floor nicely away from the street. The breakfast was plentiful and staff very helpful.

Only a small amount of parking out front, so we had to park a fair walk away. Also only air conditioning in some rooms and not others.

Nice and clean, easy to find and good value for money.

Old buildings creek, nothing that can be done about that but didn't bother me as I am a heavy sleeper.

Great location, helpful staff, quick and easy check in, very reasonable price.

The location of the hotel suited me perfectly as it was about halfway between the station and King's College where I needed to be. The room had all I needed with its own shower room and was a good temperature with a comfortable bed.

The location is marvelous. It is a 3 minute walk to the Fitzwilliam Museum and the colleges and sites are very convenient and all within an easy walk. I was happy with my stay and the price was good. It was very clean and the room (a single) was small but comfortable. Nice bed.

If you're over 5 feet tall beware , the stairs have a low ceiling and the small, single room has the toilet crammed in between at the end of the bath and the wall(could just about sit down).

Close to venue for a gig, and also restaurants etc nearby.

Very good location and my room was very cozy. Would definitely recommend/stay there if I visit again Cambridge.

I lost a button and needed a little sewing kit. The kind man on night duty could not help me with that but the owner gave me a sewing kit in the morning so all was fine. Maybe they could have these things more available for all staff to find:-)

The Lensfield is a really nice hotel and located very close to the centre (about 5 minutes walking). Our room was facing the street but it was not too loud. The bed was comfortable, the bath very modern and the room, though small but big enough, had all we needed (even an extra radiator/heater in the wardrobe which we did not need). It also had a very good kettle which I find important. The staircase was quite narrow and I'm not sure that the hotel is accessible for wheelchair users at all, as there a steps leading to the front door. The hotel offered continental breakfast but we did not have breakfast in the hotel.
