Clare College, Cambridge

Lovely porter (Tom) really made every effort to welcome us and inform us of the history of Clare College and invited us to make the most of our stay and look around. Many many thanks to him. The room was clean and tidy, but being ground floor was exposed to all the comings and goings of others. The ensuite was adequate, but as a wet room it does make it a challenge after showering to use and dry off. My daughter and I were using it as a twin so doing this without any hooks inside was difficult.

All of the portering staff were really friendly, helpful and cheerful, both at Memorial Court and the main porters lodge. The room was clean and quiet and value for money when compared with hotel prices in Cambridge, with the addition of the experience of staying in a beautiful college. The walk over Clare Bridge to breakfast first thing in the morning was lovely, especially now that the temporary bridge for construction works has been taken down.

Everything was excellent except that the room was very cold and there was not enough coverage on the bed to stay warm during the night. I understand that it was too early in autumn to turn on the heating but an extra blanket for the bed would have made the nights much more comfortable

Great experience to stay in one of the colleges. The rooms are student halls rooms and so no but should expect 5 star hotel quality but the room was clean and had everything we needed. The Porters were really helpful. Great value and would definitely stay here again
