Although the hotel was lovely I would not recommend this hotel due to our experience. We were placed in quite a small room and it was far from reception and a lift, so quite a walk for access. It also had a co joining room which although locked, we could hear the other room chatting. The front of hotel is bare, not welcoming. The location is good but I just felt this was not an ideal hotel and wouldn’t return.

Great location & nice service
I often go to Cambridge overnight, but I stayed here for the first time. It was great. The location was wonderful, the staff was friendly, and the service was excellent. However, I think it would be much better If you pay a little more attention to the cleanliness of the balcony (especially the chairs).

Excellent location, bar, restaurant and pool. But you do pay for this - pretty much Central London prices. £29 for overnight parking was also very expensive. And because the bill was so high, they even kept my security deposit - very small but it's the principle...

Perfect location! Lovely clean and picturesque. Well designed rooms. Kind staff, but no one knows what is going on! POS was down so restaurant and bar could not work. Even though the people are kind, nobody could answer a question. It is a sad deal as it is a great place.

We’ve been coming to Cambridge for years for business trips. We were very happy with our stay at Graduate. Lovely to be on the River Cam and walkable to many sites and restaurants. The bar area along the river is very nice - inside and out. Service is like other Hilton’s / ok for business travelers but not great..

Disgruntled Graduate Customer
My stay was for two nights with two friends. We had a family room and wanted to sit on our balcony, but no chairs. Requested chair's and were told it wasn't possible as it was a family room, even though there were 3 adult's only in the room. We requested an ice bucket with ice. We received it but the ice bucket inside was very dirty. I rang down for a replacement and was given another. Also I don't appreciate a service charge on drinks when I had been at the bar to order, it was not communicated to me. I only found out later when my friend went to get a drink and took her receipt. On our check out I received an email of the bill and a extra breakfast had been added. I spoke to the young women on reception and she told me basically that we had an extra breakfast, we did not. She repeated again that we had. I at first didn't hear what she said and asked her to repeat it, she spoke to me like I was a child. I do not expect to be treated in such a manner, she was not sincere in her half hearted apology. I will say the lady on the desk in the breakfast room was very pleasant and I suggest she goes onto the reception. Our breakfast was lovely and staff in The Garden Room were excellent. Unfortunately for myself and my friends the issues we have we will not return to The Graduate we will continue going to The Hilton on Downing Street where the staff there are excellent. The Graduate was very disappointing!!
