The car park is a flat £17.50 which ends at 0400hrs, meaning most overnight stays needs to be covered by two days’ parking. It’s not clear on the signs and you’ll get a ticket by ANPR if you leave after 0400 without buying a second ticket. I stayed for one night in February, paying for one £17.50 ticket and receiving a £60.00 fine, and have just stayed for two nights in March, paying £52.50 to park for 3 days, making the Ibis a pretty expensive hotel option.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us. I am truly sorry to hear about the frustration you encountered with the parking charges during your stays. I completely understand how unclear signage and unexpected fines can make what should be a relaxing visit feel stressful and disappointing. I would like to kindly clarify that the car park adjacent to the hotel is operated independently by the train station, and unfortunately, we do not have control over its pricing structure, signage, or enforcement systems such as ANPR. That said, I fully appreciate how this situation can reflect on your overall experience with us, and I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused. For future visits, we do recommend an alternative option at Cambridge Leisure Park, which offers more flexible and often more cost-effective parking rates for our guests. Our team is always happy to provide directions and guidance on the best available parking options to help avoid situations like this. Thank you again for your feedback—it is incredibly valuable, and we will continue to ensure that clearer information about parking options is communicated to our guests wherever possible. We do hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more seamless and enjoyable stay. Kind regards, Dea Front office team member

Staff were efficient and friendly. Room was clean. However, a lot of noise from outside and a hotel guest in distress was very noisy. Due to this guest being in the next room to us there was a lot of noise travelling to our room.

Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent stay. We appreciate your positive comments about our location, staff, and room cleanliness. We sincerely apologize for the disturbances you experienced from outside noise and neighbouring guests, which can occasionally occur in a busy hotel environment. Best regards, Dea Front office team member

I was out all day so I didn't use any of the facilities other than the room but the bed was comfortable, the shower was warm and the room was clean and tidy. Happy to stay here again.

Thank you for your kind words regarding the comfort of your stay. We are pleased to hear that you found your room to be clean and well-maintained. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit. Best regards, Dea Front office team member

It is convenient since it is just few steps away from the station however, it is far from the city centre. Woke up with a runny nose which I believe is because of the room being dusty. Never had this in other hotels we’ve been to. Ever. Being in the room also made it difficult to breathe. I know it’s being cleaned after every guest however, I truly believe it needs to be deep cleaned. The loo doesn’t have a good ventilation as well. In addition to that, I would say the breakfast is what I loved. They have healthy options which I liked. The coffee was good. I would recommend this to people who just needs an overnight stay before travelling but unfortunately, I would not come back.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback following your stay. We’re pleased to hear that you found our location convenient for the station and that you enjoyed the breakfast selection, particularly the healthy options and coffee—your kind comments on this are very much appreciated. That said, I am truly sorry to learn about the discomfort you experienced in your room. Your comments regarding dust and air quality are very concerning, and I completely understand how this would have impacted your stay, especially as it affected your comfort and breathing. Please be assured that this is not the standard we strive to maintain. While our rooms are cleaned after every departure, your feedback highlights that a deeper level of cleaning and inspection may be required, and this will be shared with our housekeeping team as a priority. I’m also sorry to hear that the bathroom ventilation did not meet expectations. We will ensure this is reviewed to confirm everything is functioning as it should. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and we do hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a much more comfortable experience in the future.
