This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel. There are some things of note. The first is that if you arrive early like we did ask the receptionist to see if they can show you what rooms they have available we were asked to look at 3 rooms and were able to choose. We very happily did this and were very happy with our choice. Had we be left with one of the other two we wouldn’t have been happy with either. The first was stuffy the other smelt odd? The other thing to note is that don’t have meals at the hotel. There is never anybody eating there. The first time we stayed we had an awful breakfast experience. We were not going to repeat this. So for breakfast and evening meals we recommend you eat out. There are lots of restaurants that cater for all diets just down the road so advice is choose one of these. Lastly, the hotel does seem a little tired in terms of overall fabric. The reception staff are very helpful and willing and kind this hotel is a one or two night stay but needs to think about completely overhauling the restaurant and food facilities and also maybe reducing the price for a stay. If you the put these changes together with the excellent reception staff this hotel could be great. So at present we would give it 3 stars. It could be 4 -5 because of the staff but they need a better hotel to be truly proud of. Lastly we will stay here again I’m sure in the future. I really hope that the next stay these things may have changed.

The staff in Hotel du Vin in Cambridge are incredible. I have to mention two lovely members of staff who I met when I checked in and then when I left the following day; Kai and Habiba. They couldn’t have been more helpful or kind. The hotel is fabulous and I would return without a doubt. The room was exquisite, with a roll top bath and lovely toiletries. The location was perfect. I had a wonderful experience staying there.

The location is excellent, everything is within walking distance and it's a quiet neighbourhood. I was, however, perhaps expecting a little bit more from a four star hotel. Certain surfaces in my room carried a layer of dust, it was strange that the toilet cubicle didn't have its own lighting, you had to have the main lights on to have light in the toilet and whilst I didn't have a tape measure with me the bed seemed to be a normal double when a queen or king was advertised. Might just have been my perception though. The staff were excellent, friendly and professional and the cellar bar was quaint and cosy. Breakfast was ok without, in my opinion, being 4* standard. My muffin was slightly over toasted, could have sent it back I know but had already waited some time and didn't want to wait any longer. Overall more 3* than 4* but definitely a four star price. If I stay in Cambridge again I'm likely to consider other options. Shame because the location, decor, and staff are all excellent. Just needs a little more attention to detail.

Wonderful boutique hotel and bistro/restaurant. Very comfortable bed, excellent breakfast choices, quiet yet convenient to downtown Cambridge - easy to walk there. Also wonderful mural in the reception area! Basement bar is inviting, with low ceiling and some small nooks of chairs and tables.

Enjoyed its location because walkable from the train station and the city centre; quiet too! It was a graduation weekend, so I had to manage the hotel’s price hike…. Breakfast package is top notch.

Bad Bistro
The hotel was fine. The assistant manager was very friendly and kind during check-in. My issue was with the hotel restaurant - The Bistro. There was an aggressive server there (man) and quite rude upon checkout. We had dinner there and he added an extra donation surcharge without even asking and when I asked him why he added it without asking, he got annoyed and aggressive. Why are you adding charges without the customer's knowledge. I thought that was odd. Unfortunately, tt really turned me off to the whole experience. The next morning at breakfast he was there again and he recognized me. The man has an attitude for no good reason and perhaps he was having a bad day, but I cannot recommend that restaurant. The French food is subpar at best and the breakfast that I paid for was also mediocre. On top of that the rude service - no thanks.
