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..

Beautiful, met there 10 years ago and spent our first moments together. Returning with our 7 year old daughter was really nostalgic. Cambridge is amazing and this hotel is right on the waterway with swans and "punting".

Great situation for access to all main areas of Cambridge and the universities. Right on the river. Tired room that is in need of a refurb. The woodwork and desk area all chipped and marked. Room was a real trek from reception with no offer of our luggage being sent up, many corridors and steps to negotiate not ideal for over 70s! Room was not made up on our return after 4.00 pm had to call reception twice to get someone up to clean service ( they told me that they give priority servicing to checkouts ) wow … so once you’re in you don’t matter!! Asked for 2 non feather pillows but housekeeper didn’t understand !! Brought Feather ones and didn’t understand my request . Charge for car park ridiculous £26 a day !! But then again I had a great view of the car park from the room . ( hope you get my sarcasm) As a Hilton honours member to say I was disappointed would be an under statement. I’m sure there are better places to stay for the same money as this hotel is not cheap !!! No soap in the bathroom to wash your hands and when we asked for some we got a shower wall pump left on the sink ….. really ???

The hotel is on the river Cam and is very close to King's Parade. The restaurant was ok and the service was excellent. The room was comfortable. The Maitre de was superb--he was very busy with weddings et al but paid as much careful attention to the needs of a single person who ordered very little.

The Graduate - Amazing location, right next to the Cam with a lovely riverbank restaurant. Also a deckchair area to just sit and take in the atmosphere. Easy to walk to central sights, shops and restaurants.
