The hotel had a central location and offered a unique Bentley tour experience, which was definitely a highlight of our stay. While the room was comfortable and clean, the breakfast left much to be desired, especially considering the lack of variety. The service was friendly overall, but some aspects of the booking experience could use improvement. The parking fee was also a surprise that added to the overall cost.

The Gonville Hotel provided a wonderful experience with its elegant atmosphere and thoughtful touches. The spacious rooms and stunning décor made our stay enjoyable, and the service was exceptional, especially during our Bentley tour. However, the breakfast experience could use improvement as it fell short of expectations for a luxury establishment, and the coffee situation was inconvenient. Overall, it was a delightful stay with minor areas for enhancement.

I just had an amazing weekend at The Gonville in Cambridge! The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. The room was clean and quiet, but parking was a bit of a hassle, which added to our costs. The breakfast was fantastic and set us up for our days exploring this beautiful city.

I had an incredible stay at the hotel, from the warm welcome to the stunningly decorated room. The luxurious spa services were a highlight, especially the exceptional massage I received. The location was perfect for exploring Cambridge on foot, and the complimentary Bentley tour made the experience even more unique. While everything was generally superb, I did notice a minor issue with the shower design causing some water to splash onto the floor. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience that I would highly recommend.

I had a lovely stay at The Gonville Hotel, enjoying a relaxing atmosphere complemented by clean and well-decorated rooms. The staff were proactive and welcoming, making our experience even more enjoyable. However, the breakfast service could use improvements as we faced delays, and the room temperature was a bit uncomfortable at times. Overall, it was a delightful getaway with some room for enhancement.
