Good size family room and enjoyable stay
ByWoody

We enjoyed our stay here, with a good sized family room with two double sized beds. The bed settee was not quite as comfortable, but fine for a child.
Enjoyed the more choice at breakfast than previous stay, I love bacon so a nice surprise there.
The staff were generally friendly, although on booking in the lady on reception wasn't overly friendly, but the other reception staff were lovely.
A great pizza served in reception area.
Nothing to fault

This hotel exceeded our expectations on every level. As an 'express' hotel we had expected basic amenities and food, BUT,
From check in to check out, we couldn't fault the service. The rooms were clean and comfortable, reception staff pleasant and helpful. We ate at the Red Lion next door in the evening, and the food was high quality and beautifully presented. Certainly not the bar meal we had prepared ourselves for.
Breakfast at the holiday inn was good and plentiful.
Well recommended and would visit again
Quick stop over but decent

Small, quiet and friendly but very close to the railway line, wasn't a major noise issue though
Good nights sleep

Hotel was fine, bar a bit short on supplies, breakfast very good. Staff pleasant and helpful, especially those on breakfast duty.. The adjacent restaurant was not good.......reviewed separately.
I will be coming back soon

It is a very convenient location for the customer I was visiting, the Cambridge area and the Duxford aircraft museum. Nicely situated resulting in it being very easy to find. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The hotel is clean and has a fresh airy feel to it.
It would be nice if their room keys worked!

Recent stayed at this HEI for 6 nights. Every night my key wouldn't work and needed to reprogramed. I was traveling with two colleagues and the same thing happened to their keys. By the 5th night we were fed up with this, we had to reset keys 15 times and no none of us had keep the keys next to phones or other cards.
The front desk made a joke of the situation and the duty manager explained their machine was old. We asked that the General Manager Tom contact us in the morning to explain why keys at this hotel only work for one night. Of course never heard anything from Tom.
Hotel is good, standard Holiday Inn Express and the staff are good. Shame the management can't be bothered to provide any customer service. If they treat guests like this it makes you wonder how they treat staff. The management of this hotel obviously can't be bothered and never follow up with us to explain or apologies.
Great Value

I would definitely stay at this hotel again. It is very convenient and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast buffet is very nice and they share a parking lot with a very nice pub, the Red Lion. If anything, parking can be difficult at times due to the pub business.

First time visit to this HIX hotel. Great location, without the hassle of staying in Cambridge itself. Hotel is back to back with local station and albeit, facing station, sound proofing was excellent. No disturbed from trains. Cambridge is only minutes by train and thus we found very handy and convenient. To park in Cambridge, if you can find a spot, is not cheap. Staff were lovely and the breakfast excellent. This HIX, does not offer evening meals, like many others, we have stayed. There is an Inn, close by to dine at in the evening. Hotel is also very convenient to visit the IWM at Duxford, which we visited for the first time.
