Eight of us had travelled from Vancouver and found a well located classic B & B. All rooms are well appointed, and have a big screen multichannel TV. All rooms are en suite, and well heated with plentifull hot water. A full "English Breakfast" with many choices. You may not want to eat lunch !!! Guido and Maria are genial hosts, with a quick english type sense of humour. They cannot do enough for guests. They really have all bases covered...and we thought it was altogether a great deal.

Worth House was an excellent recommendation from a colleague for my stay in Cambridge. Guido and Maria were extremely warm and kind, and they made every effort to ensure I enjoyed my stay in Cambridge. The room was fantastic; I almost didn't want to go home! Breakfast was very tasty and they were eager to accommodate variations on the English breakfast. The french press coffee was a nice touch. I would definitely return, and I hope to visit again soon.

If you like your hotels to all look the same, be bland and faceless then Worth House is not for you.

If on the other hand you like a warm friendly helpful host and to feel like you are really being welcomed into their home then book into Worth House.

Guido greeted us with a smile and spent quite a while chatting with us, felt he really was interested in us as people not just as paying customers. He introduced us to his wife Maria the following morning who was equally as friendly.

The room was gorgeous, spotless without looking sterile, very welcoming and comfortable. Very comfortable bed, double glazing so hardly any road noise even though we were at the front overlooking the ring road. For a ring road though it is pretty quiet apart from during rush hour.

Breakfast was spot on, with Guido encouraging us to take fruit and cheese and cake away with us to snack on later in the day, Decent coffee and Guido's breakfasts cooked to order were worth the short wait.

Others have left rather mixed comments about the parking arrangements. I emailed prior to our visit to check this out and yes there is parking, You are not parking right by the building but behind the building next door. The parking is pretty secure as not on the main road. I was more than happy to leave my car there for a couple of days. Yes it would take you a minute or two to walk from your parking space to the front door but then Cambridge is a very pedestrianised city so if you werent happy with the parking arrangements then Cambridge is not the place for you!

Would I recommend this hotel to a friend? Yes I would do, even my parents who have quite exacting standards.

À warm welcome at the Worth house at the day of our arrival!
Guido the,very friendly, owner did his utmost best to make our stay a pleasant one!
Nice, clean tidy rooms and a great shower where the finishing touch!
A nice short walk near the river brought us in the lovely centre!
So don't hesitate: book it!

I make frequent trips to Cambridge for business and this is my first choice for a place to stay every time -- even though work will pay for any of the expensive hotels in the city, this is easily the best choice. A colleague I tipped off from New York agrees.

The secret is that the hosts are truly fantastic: Guido and Maria take excellent care of their place and their guests. Their welcome will make your stay special.

The location is good, just North of the river close to the city centre. It's just a short walk into the centre and the colleges, and it's on the right side of town for the Science Park (I rent a bicycle from Station Cycles to get out there and back).

The rooms are spacious, clean, attractive and well maintained. I couldn't ask for more.

The breakfast is great -- toast and a very well prepared full english or cereal with orange juice, and a pot of tea or cafe press of good coffee.

Worth House easily passes the "would I bring my wife/family/friends/colleagues here?" test with flying colours. I just hope they still have room for me on my next trip here, now that I've given you my recommendation...
