Good location
The staff were incredibly rude to us upon arrival. One man-child behind the desk was sneering and smirking at us... An unusual way to greet guests. We wondered why we'd chosen to stay here!
The location is fantastic, that made it worth staying.
We met the manager when checking out and she was incredibly nice and helpful, almost made up for the others.

Clean and Modern Room
The room is very clean and modern. There is a designated car park solely for the use of hotel's residents, which enhance the safety confidence. The hotel is located at the centre part of cambridge and adjacent to the shopping mall. It is highly recommended to stay this hotel unless you have limited budget.

Need improvement
Overall no toiletries are provided in the room, for example, no dental kits, shaving kits and slippers. All of these items need to be asked by myself from the front desk, which requires me to go down from my room on the first day. However on my second day, I would like to thank Ms Sally Fung (the supervisor) who served me well and the housekeeping guy who gave me the slippers and the items. I hope Hilton which should be a high standard hotel brand to improve in the coming future.

Best hotel accommodation in central Cambridge?
Excellent location for walking everywhere. Lovely breakfast with wide selection. Super nice staff. Great with two double beds accommodating us as a family of two grownups and a tall teenager. We will be back!
