What people are saying about The Lord Byron Inn




Summary
4.6

Lovely Pub - Rating 4/5

The room was comfortable but basic. The decoration was a little outdated and overall the room, much like the pub and grounds, required some TLC. Nevertheless everything worked; the shower was powerful and hot, and the bed was comfortable. We slept soundly. The room was cleaned whilst we were out during the day and the tea coffee and complimentary biscuits were replenished (an unexpected bonus). The full English breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. The pub served some excellent beers and their main meals were great. Location was excellent - 30mins walk into town or a very easy bus ride. Look beyond appearances and this is a great place to stay.

Lovely stay- Rating 5/5

Good selection of real ale in the bar and well kept.Rooms hadvery comfortable beds.Showers worked well.Breakfast food andservice excellent but no breakfast bags for early departing guests .Only issue is that no facility to buy drinks after 22.45 even if a resident.Not sure why the bar closes so early.I would definitely go back and can heartily recommendthis place.

Friendly and charmy- Rating 4/5

The main building now is blue, but it fits in this place. The check-in didn‘t take long time, the men in the service are very friendly.As it had been raining all day long, we were very thankful to get a good dinner in house. The good music fits to the good beer.The room was clean and tidy; already the tables need to be cleaned well.

Excellent Value for Money- Rating 5/5

We have just stayed here for 3 nights 19th-22nd September and we really enjoyed our stay. The room was spacious and comfortable ideal for short stays with housekeeping daily and towels changed on request which was really good. Breakfast was plentiful and deliciously served by Raymond who couldn’t do enough for you. The pub/ restaurant was also really nice comfortable place to enjoy a drink, with the good choice menus serving delicious food and the sticky toffee pudding is to die for!We were looked after really well by Harry the co bar manger who went above and beyond to make our stay so pleasant even though he was so busy, nothing was too much trouble. (hang on to him guys) all in all a lovely few days with no hesitation to stay again in the future.

Lovely period place.- Rating 5/5

We really enjoyed a lovely relaxing break. The rooms situated outside of the property were a bonus as no stairs or lift to have to use. The room was very clean with a very comfortable bed. . We were surprised to have it tidied everyday for the price. Food was excellent and all the staff were friendly and professional.The location was great for the Park and Ride and made it so easy to get to and around Cambridge rather than use the car.

hospitable and tasty food and drinks - Rating 5/5

This Inn is located about a 30 minute walk from the center of Cambridge. But nearby you can use the P&R bus to go to the center (you can buy tickets from the driver). Very friendly and hospitable staff. We enjoyed high-quality delicious meals and the English breakfast. And you can choose from many tasty beers on tap. The Inn has a large beer garden. On one side is the Inn and on the other side a separate building with the rooms. When the weather is nice, locals and guests make a lot of use of the garden. We thought it was a nice location and highly recommended!

Easy access to Cambridge by bus - Rating 4/5

Good breakfast and the staff were very accommodating. The portable aircon in the bar took away the ambiance and was quite cold at dinner. The beds could do with some firm pillows. Had an enjoyable stay

Good - Rating 4/5

We had an enjoyable one night stay and have stayed before. The breakfast was good and we enjoyed our evening meal.The only small point is that it would be an improvement to have a lighter quilt (or sheet and think blanket) during the warmer weather.

Good place to stay for a night - Rating 5/5

Lovely staff, excellent breakfast, handy for visiting Addenbrookes hospital.Good shower but a grab rail would have been useful as extended base was quite slippery.Good choice of tea/coffee/hot chocolate in room .Good facilities, mirrors, air con, coat hangers, hair dryer.Would recommend and be pleased to stay here again.
