Brilliant place. Really lovely, modern decor. Rooms were great. Breakfast was outstanding. The pool/sauna is small, but fine. Gym is also small but with good equipment. There’s a bus and train station within the grounds of the hotel, so super convenient for transport into the city. There’s also a co-op shop, inclusive of Costa, on site. We travelled with kids and they were well looked after by the hotel. Also saw a lot of dogs around the place

Modern, basic great hotel

Their main picture is their swimming pool so I think many people pick it for this reason. I personally just wanted to use the sauna and at the weekend, it was practically impossible. Swimming pool and sauna were very busy, with kids even at 8:50pm (closes at 9pm). If you have kids, great. But otherwise, I'd only stay here if you don't want to use these facilities. They have a great gym (all Technogym equipment) but you can only access it by requesting a separate card which is an unnecessary faff. Really nice decor so good value overall. Our room was right across from station platform which was fun and unexpected.

Travel / Stay - Family Visit

The stay was really nice and comfortable. Unfortunately there were quite a few dog hairs on the carpet in our bedroom. Although it’s pet friendly I think the cleanliness was not to the standard it should be. Staff were excellent and rectified the problem straight away in particular a member of staff called “Jenny” a real gem.

Great hotel, super friendly and helpful staff. Rooms were spacious and the location is conveniently right opposite a Co-op and right next to the train station. Parking was cheaper than expected with an off-peak weekend tariff. Lovely breakfast. Leisure facilities were good and maintained but the pool did get very busy at times and it isn't a huge pool. Overall a very pleasurable stay and we would definitely go back.

Visiting Cambridge

Our two-night stay in Cambridge North was satisfactory. The kids enjoyed the indoor pool and breakfast. The room was adequate for our family.

I have stayed at the Cambridge Novotel several times and it is always a pleasure. I have family in the area so it is very convenient for visiting but it is also my hotel of choice for all the reasons mentioned in the questions above.
