We were very fortunate to have selected the Ashley Hotel for our first trip to the UK for a week in March of this year. Check in is weird, in that you need to walk 1/4 mile to the Arundel House to obtain keys. Not knowing that, the cab had left & we had 4 large pieces of luggage. Luckily,... More

The Ashley reminds one of an Agatha Christie film set. This is not a modern hotel, but it certainly has character and will appeal to those with a quirky sense of interior decoration. The reception was pleasant and efficient, and the room spacious. The breakfast was hearty and generous. The hotel is well situated and is good value for money.... More

When we buzzed on the intercom we got told we had to travel to the sister hotel "Arundel Hotel" which is quarter of a mile up the road to collect the keys. It should be staff meeting me, not me packing my bags into the car to drive up the road. Room was everything you'd want but think we got... More

It was good to have car parking within the hotel grounds. Breakfasts were lovely. Hotel is well situated and we where able to easily walk to many of the attractions Cambridge has to... More

We arrived in Cambridge in the afternoon and spent hours hunting for a hotel. Everything was full. We were about to drive out of Cambridge when we drove past the Ashley. Fortunately they had a room that could accommodate our family of four. Checkin was down the road at their main hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. It... More

I read through the reviews for this hotel before we travelled and have to confess was a bit troubled! However I need not have worried we were greeted by a friendly member of staff who was very efficient. We are a family of three (2 adults and one tall11 year old) we were delighted with the size of the room... More

The hotel is clean, undergoing refurbishment and redecoration. The room was adequate with a recently refurbished ensuite. However, the bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. Take you own! The staff are friendly and it is in an excellent location. A lovely stroll across Jesus Green into the city. Unfortunately The Ashley is only an annex so is only staffed in... More

Very clean hotel with large spacious rooms. Good sized bathroom. Bit of a maze from the front entrance if you are in room 11 upwards. Light and airy if a little chintzy on the decor. Easy to find and close to the city. Let down by the breakfast service. Took 10 minutes to take my order. An extra 15 minutes... More
