The Fellows House Cambridge, Curio Collection by Hilton
"Great stay but room wasn’t very clean with dusty surfaces everywhere. Hotel was beautiful with well equipped kitchen in the studio. Also very expensive if you choose to get a drink or food at the bar with service charges. Pool was a great addition but steam room was out of bounds which was a shame. ..."
