The Hilton Cambridge City Centre is ideally located, in the heart of Cambridge, close to many of the colleges and the bars and restaurants in the centre of the city. The hotel has it's own car park, with valet parking and all the staff employed at the hotel are helpful and friendly. Checking in and out was trouble free and our room was warm and comfortable, with all the facilities you would expect from a good quality hotel. As we have come to expect from previous visits to Hilton hotels, breakfast in the morning was excellent, with a good variety of options, both hot and cold. If we return to Cambridge in future we would definitely stay at the Hilton again.
