Great,clean modern hotel with good amenities. Well located in quiet retail area with Cambridge 20 mins away in car, or Park and Ride 10 mins away. Friendly,helpful staff. Everything you need for a comfortable short stay including buffet breakfast, hot or cold. Only negative was the hot breakfast quality not too good (eggs, and hash browns) but enough other items were more than enough for a decent breakfast. Would highly recommend and definitely would book again.

Room very clean and housekeeping in attendance. Breakfast - chaotic but a very busy period for hotel; staff multi-tasking perhaps a bit too much; guests not too sure where anything was located at buffet; no room-check 'just turn up' gives impression of low-value aspect. Everything else, fine.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was comfortable, and being able to use the air-conditioner during the extremely hot weather was bliss. The staff were friendly and helpful, and when we decided to stay another night (to dodge the heat), the front desk staff helped arrange this and added a late checkout to our booking. Can definitely recommend and will use again.

The Holiday Inn was very clean & smart, plus saff were excellent & they went out their way to help us retain our room for a second night. Our only "minor" criticism was the food selection for the evening meal. We felt there was not enough choice & needed more variety.
