This is a family hotel and the staff are very pleasant, especially the Italian waitress who seemed to be working all hours. It's fairly central and has a free car park, which is an advantage in a town like Cambridge. My only criticism is the size of the room. It was a double (single occupancy) and you had to pick... more

We arrived at hotel very late with no reservation. We got a room at second floor (no lift) - last one. The room was clean, not very new but quite good and adequate for the price paid --> gbp 88 incl english breakfast We found our accomodation very comfortable. Cambridge is not a clean town, but Centennial hotel is ok.... more

It started when I arrived. They had no record of my booking, and I stood for ages waiting by the desk for them to sort it out by staring pointlessly at a large hand-written 'spreadsheet' that clearly did not have my name on it. Eventually, they found something somewhere that confirmed I was a guest and not a criminal, but... more

If you are travelling alone, whatever you do, do not stay at the Centennial. If you do, you will be placed in a small, dingy room with little light and little space. I cannot comment on what it must be like to stay at the Centannial if you are a couple ( I can only hope it is a lot... more

I stayed here for one night on a work business trip. The hotel is about 15 minutes' walk from the train station and about 15 minutes' walk into the city centre. The front door is locked at 11ish, so you have to ring a bell to be let in after then. I was allocated a single room in the attic,... more

The Centennial is pretty much as described on their website except the deluxe double room description leads you to expect more than you find on arrival. The room is pretty much standard unless you consider a canopy at the head of the bed a luxury. The room is situated at the back overlooking the car park and would be much... more

Despite good first impressions and apparently helpful staff, this turned out to be a really unpleasant experience and I will certainly not be staying at the Centennial again. To be fair, in normal circumstances this would probably be a reasonable place to stay: furniture is dated and chintzy to the point of creepiness, and single rooms are extremely 'cosy', but... more
