The property is very conveniently located to allow great access to all the Cambridge sights. The room was lovely and well-appointed with teas, coffee and even hot chocolate. The property is beautiful and allows for great walks in their green space. The staff were definitely helpful though sometimes with a slightly detached attitude. That is the only criticism I would have.

All the staff were most helpful and courteous. The en suite room was most comfortable and clean, with a beautiful view out onto the courtyard garden. Would certainly stay again.

Clean, quiet, comfortable, modern. Great location - few minutes walk to shops and restaurants. Lovely buildings and grounds. Good breakfast - however only from 7.30am, which might not leave enough time for business travellers.

We had an excellent stay at West Court. The college is very beautiful and peaceful. From our room, we got to see the courtyard from the window and had the breakfast at the hall. It is such a unique experience just like you are living there like a student. The only issue we had was the shower was broken and only cold water is available. But the reception staff was very nice and responsive.

It's right in the heart of Cambridge, and an integral part of Jesus College. Even out of term time we were able to walk round the college grounds and visit the chapel. A memorable experience!

Great place to stay in Cambridge
Based on reviews, decided to give this a try instead of hotels for a conference and was overall happy with my choice. Excellent location near Trinity, St John's and city centre. Stayed in an apartment, which was modern, clean and well appointed. Had a separate bedroom, kitchen/lounge and bathroom. Didn't use the cooking facility but there's the option to cook something, otherwise there's lots of food options in the area. In the room, had the all important ironing facilities in the room). From the receptionist to the staff at breakfast, there was a friendly and warm welcome. Breakfast was served upstairs and was a great start to the day. Would come back for sure!

High quality architecture in the heart of Cambridge at competitive rates. An enjoyable breakfast would be improved with muesli and fresh fruit being available. The shower head had a defective washer which made it difficult to use, but overall a comfortable second stay; and we will return!

Great location, spotless, great staff and fabulous breakfast! We did park and ride to get to hotel, its about 8 mins walk from bus stop to hotel and, as we arrived early, they kindly lept our luggage so we could have a look roumd Cambridge before checking in. There is also a nice bar. Kettle & fridge in room was handy. We would stay again as it had lovely view of the college from the bedroom window, was quiet and great for visiting Cambridge.

Good venue
Good venue when in Cambridge for conference and return to college feeling with some additional luxury. English breakfast and gluten free bread. Close to the center and shopping, restaurants and other entertainments. Th epark with art is a must!

Excellent service. Clean room with comfortable bedding, great location and delicious breakfast. My only complaint was a next door jet lagged guest who would speak loudly on the telephone at 5 am waking everyone up on the hall every morning.

Fabulous location, lovely to be part of the university grounds, free tour of the college available and just 5 minutes walk into the city centre. No parking at the hotel but a short walk to the grafton centre and only £10 for overnight parking (midweek) we had a lovely room with a balcony in the 3rd floor. Amazing dining room full of wood panelling and chandeliers. Would definitely recommend!

The apartment was fine, spacious and very clean. Bathroom rather small. The breakfast was awful. The only bread was white sliced. Cereals were of cornflakes and cocoapops variety. Very disappointing.

West Court is in an excellent location, we found it easy to walk to places of interest in the day, and back out in the evening. The accommodation was comfortable and clean, and the breakfast was a very good hearty English breakfast. The overall feel of the place made us feel part of the university, we really enjoyed it.

great stay if it gels with yr trip purpose
We were in one of the three bigger apartments, which was great. Spacious and modern, All amenities. Balcony. My review therfore based on that. Price fine for apartment (after London ripoffs, very fine). Great location to city. dunno about parking. Can be noisy some nights, but then Cambridge is full of academic drunkards with too much time on their hands. You're inside a college, so if that's why you're there as a tourist, then you have an insider head-start.
