Hotel du Vin and Bistro Cambridge Review

This upmarket chain has taken a historic building in the heart of Cambridge and turned it into a plush hotel. Special features include some suites with private gardens and the chain's trademark bistro and champagne bar. The hotel is completely up to date, after millions of pounds were poured into its restoration, yet it is also a classic, as the building on this site dates from medieval times. Two wells from the Middle Ages were glassed over as a focal point for one of the larger rooms. Rooms are elegant and beautifully furnished, some with private terraces. The hotel bar lies in the vaulted cellar. For afternoon tea, ever had a drink of hibiscus flowers, sweet blackberry leaves, apple, licorice root, and poppy flowers?

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
