Convenient
Right next to the train station and bus stops, the Ibis is conveniently located to get into the historic centre. There are shops and restaurants nearby too so you don't have to leave the area either. Comfortable beds and a great breakfast too.

Mostly stay at the Ibis is always great.
We stay at the Ibis about 8 to 10 times a year and we are never disappointed. Great location, good atmosphere, ever pleasant & helpful staff, clean & spacious rooms. Lobby & resto bar are welcoming. Delicious pizza.

Simple hotel near station
The Cambridge Ibis is ideal if you arrive by train -- just a minute from the station. Typical Ibis decore, and I could not move the shower head although it was on a vertical rail. Bed quite firm but I slept well.

The staff are really friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent with an amazing selection of food.
Hotel is in a very convenient location and we do enjoy our stays there.

mixed review this time.
The hotel is in a convenient place as I was taking rail trips to nearby places. I've stayed there before recently and my stay was great (which is why I went back). This timne felt like harder work. There was often a log jam at reception, which made check in and even asking questions really slow. The wifi went down and it was impossible to get an answer about it - I gave up. The wall mechanism on my toilet was also malfunctioning. I reported it at check out to someone on my floor and was told it happens alot!
