"Lovely hotel off the beaten track, but within short distance of Newmarket Racecourse. Booked a standard double but Daisy the very helpful Receptionist upgraded the room to a Superior King. The room was large and very clean and the bed was comfortable. As an added bonus the bathroom had a spa bath which was amazing! Breakfast was good but the afternoon tea was fantastic! Fresh sandwiches, warm scones and delicious cakes and a bottomless teapot! Did not have dinner in the restaurant and...
"Absolutely amazing facility. Central location. At walking distance to all major locations in Cambridge. Perfect for family and long stay. Super pleasant, helpful and friendly staff. Kiki at the checkin was incredibly helpful. We loved her personalized care. Highly recommend!"
"Bästa hotellet hittills på vår resa. Ligger inte centralt men var otroligt bra hotell. Vi tyckte det var väldigt trevligt med bra restaurang och bar. Rummet var jättefint med riktigt bra säng, vi sov jättebra och vaknade utvilade. "
"Huge comfortable bed, standard king room was a great size, best of all zero noise outside the room, not a sound. Great choice of breakfast food, all very fesh, reasonable price. Parking on site and a bus stop accross the road takes you into central Cambridge or station."
"Second time i have used the Brambles, Bob is always polite and helpful, and the fresh breakfast tastes so much better than at a large chain hotel, rooms are very clean and tidy "
"We loved our stay! My spouse and I were initially unsure about the shared bathroom, but it turned out to be a non-issue. The grounds were delightful, and while the room was small, the design made it feel just right—cozy and well thought-out.
Breakfast was a highlight: the morning walk to it added charm, and the meal itself brought real joy. The location was excellent—peaceful yet well-connected.
I would absolutely recommend this place to friends visiting the area.

"A nice, bright (double aspect windows) apartment in a very quiet close, on the edge of Cambridge.
Clean and fairly well appointed (fridge freezer, microwave, cooker, washing machine, iron and board). No hairdryer as far as I can see. TV and Virgin box. Comfortable bed (I do hate poor mattresses) was a blessing.
I'm sure that before booking it claimed to have parking, because I declined several other properties because they had no parking. However in the confirmation they stated that parking...
"This is a great place to stay after long UK journal for us! Relax and enjoyable! Great location for a single day visit of University of Cambridge, and next morning leaving for London Heathrow Airport since it is just 2 minutes walk to the Cambridge train station. Daily rate is very reasonable considering huge/luxury space for my family! "
"Heel hartelijke ontvangst. Geweldig ontbijt (Eggs Royal en Full English). Voetbal (Europa League) voor ons op een Nederlandse club gezet. Lekker eten. Kamer iets aan kleine kant, maar heerlijk stil en mooi ingericht. Parkeren wat lastiger. Je wandelt echter zo de stad in langs de Cam en door een park. Zeker aan te raden."
