My single room was a reasonable size, clean with a comfortable bed but furniture and decor need a refurb. Staff were friendly and helpful and continental breakfast was OK, a little more choice would be good. The hotel is in a great position, opposite the river, close to the town centre and parking is a bonus.

I booked this small room at late notice at a very fair rate, although it was indeed small it suited me fine. It was perfectly situated for some work I was doing and importantly had parking (£18 a day extra for those not booking directly). Staff were kind and friendly, continental breakfast was included and tasty. All in all a happy stay in a quality hotel at a decent price.

I really liked the position. I enjoy walking and at the end of the day it was great to get out of the Centre, walk across the green and find the quiet of Arundel House. I also found the staff friendly and helpful and I was very glad to be able to have my evening meal in the restaurant of the hotel. The breakfast was good as well and included in the price of my room. My room was quiet and I had everything I needed, however really needed refurbishing. The bathroom in particular was a bit down at heel.

The Arundel hotel is convenient to central Cambridge with good walking access to the colleges and shopping centre It has a good outlook across the river Cam and Jesus Green Sadly the hotel is tired and has not had a change in decor in many years The staff were doing their best but there was a severe shortage of staff during my stay There are many stairs to the bedrooms and down to the bar/restaurant area difficult for anyone with limited mobility Food menu much less a choice than when I stayed there before Covid Overall clean basic convenient stay for what was needed

Arundel House is located right on the River and across from beautiful Jesus Green. Everything is within easy walk-able distance, but you're just outside the crowded center. The hotel is a little down at the heels but has a lot of old fashion charm. The only real draw back was that both wifi and (for us) cellular were poor in our room. Still, we would stay again, the location was great.

Was asked for 15 pound deposit in case of damages. A note left in room saying sorry shortstaff cannot clean room. Told nearest station to hotel cambridge north but in fact it was cambridge central so cost extra 20 pound in taxi fare and 2 extra rains to catch costing extra 6 pound on fares.
