Location is perfect. Right in the centre of town. Unfortunately there is no parking. Room was big and comfortable. There wasn’t a window except the skylight and I struggled to open the blind on this. The building is lovely, with nice furnishing. Staff were friendly. Breakfast wasn’t included so we paid for that but was one price for whatever you selected, £15, so you could have had a full English or just a sausage sandwich and it was the same price. I would definitely stay again.

What a magical space! Really well thought out with high standards and imaginative design. So lovely to have a private little patio too. Very kind to have welcome biscuits. Lots of useful information and clear instructions. Very clean and well presented. Everything I could have wanted was provided.
Excellent location for my trip. The host was very helpful for a slightly early arrival.

For the price I was so pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The beds and rooms were very comfy, there was a generous supply of teas, coffees and biscuits in the room, all the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and having a spoons a short stroll from the hotel was highly convenient.

The town is very picturesque, nice walks down by the river. There is a cycle path that runs all along the busway, from St Ives to Cambridge. This is flat, completely traffic-free and about 15 miles each way.

We were going to St Ives for the annual and amazing Old Riverport Jazz and Blues Festival - now in its 9th year - four days of free !!! awesome bands which coincides with the Heritage Open day in St Ives.
Because the music was hosted for free it meant everyone had a bit more money available to pay to get to St Ives and / or to have a bit of treat. St Ives has the perfect medieval layout for such an event and the weather was perfect for the outdoor music events. Discovering the quirky venues in such a beautiful historical riverside town was a real joy, and the quality of the muscians made it a genuinally special bit of magic.

Lovely little riverside town with plenty of amenities. Some great restaurants, we'd recommend Di Ritas Italian, and the Hambleton Bakery (next door to Waitrose).
We had a charter trip on the Electric Boat company, and that's 5Star! You must try it, but book in advance.

I like the mix of little shops and cafes, and there are lovely walks by the river and beyond. We enjoyed the fabulous food at the Italian restaurant on the waterfront, and its a good idea to book, it’s very popular. It’s very easy to get around, with a lot of paved walk ways, and we walked everywhere. I was disappointed in the amount of larger shops that have closed, but sadly this is the same in many small towns, so I am not being critical of St Ives.

Interesting and attractive Cambridgeshire market town.
Interesting and attractive Cambridgeshire market town. We were only over-nighting, so didn't have the opportunity to investigate the town's attractions. The riverside looked especially pretty. Definitely enough promise to tempt us back for a day trip.

No thru traffic which made walking around the town very pleasant; old river bridge out of the town and river quay is delightful. Very old buildings to admire and the flower market together with the food market on another morning made shopping a really enjoyable experience for the visitor to the town.
Very well located for access to town with plenty of parking on site. It’s a quiet, small and friendly hotel with well appointed rooms and bathrooms. The only disappointment was the lack of cooked breakfast. We’ve stayed before and this has been good but sadly they are struggling to replace staff who’ve left but I would stress this is a national and hopefully temporary problem and the long serving staff have been working very hard to keep it going. Highly recommend for visiting St. Ives or a pit stop en route near Cambridge.
The property location was ideal for walks around St Ives and a little high street retail therapy (Honey Boutique is awesome for ladies wear!)
It was also close to the river and all the restaurants along the river.
The free car parking was a necessary bonus.
The apartment is spacious and airy.
The facilities in the flat were all lovely and high quality. The coffee machine and capsules was a real hit with my sister. The milk and cookies were also a lovely touch.
The owners were very helpful and accommodating throughout.
Lovely comfortable house. Home from home. Visiting for a weekend to see family. The house made a great base and was an easy walk into St Ives. Very comfy beds. Great shower. The property was very clean and had a nice garden to relax in. The house was well equipped. Ray is a fantastic host and was super helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
Great place to stay tranquill and very peaceful yet a busy pub with great views of the river 20 foot away and great atmosphere.Have a beer and watch the boats go by.
big thankyou to Claire and here staff and Chris congrats to the chef great food try the brownie you wont be dissapointed
Lovely location, love st ives. Little things let the room down. Also couldn't get my head round getting draft beer outside then having to go inside to pay. What happened to the old restaurant?? Also the bar is tiny now. Much prefered how it used to be. It just needed updating
Excellent clear communication with the owner through Booking.com. Property is a short walk from the lovely town of St Ives with a good selection of eateries and pubs. Property was well maintained, very clean and equipped with everything you need for a break away.
Beautiful!! Love the history, loved the country location!! it is close to Cambridge, but didn’t have time to go there, so will have to come stay again! There were plenty of places to go for beautiful walks. 😍
Staff was Great and food was good! Cheers!🍺
Exceptional value for money. Perfect location for a gig at Burgess Hall and only a short walk into St Ives centre. Nice little touches like tea, coffee, milk, biscuits etc. Cosy little set up with own courtyard. Very clean.
Penthouse was very clean and well equipped, information sent by Simon to gain entry to the apartment was clear and precise.
Nice residential area, a bit to far for us to walk into St Ives (but we are getting on a bit)
Great location for the town and access to river walks. Nice spacious kitchen with big table for family meals. Well equipped kitchen. Bedroom and bathroom accommodation good. Helpful host answered queries promptly.
I stayed at Slepe Hotel as was working at a local festival for the weekend. Nothing was too much trouble for the extremely friendly staff and they were very accommodating about my late arrivals back each night.
Great value and excellent location for access to St Ives. If travelling by car, the availability of Hotel car park is a big bonus since parking elsewhere in St Ives can be awkward and expensive.
Very well appointed and immediate impression was of high quality accommodation.
Further exploration revealed a few pointers for improvement for 'luxury accommodation '
The room was lovely. Staying on a Monday the hotel was very quiet. The staff were very friendly and helped us find somewhere to eat as the restaurant was closed.
Great location for the jazz and blues festival weekend. This hotel is under new management and the new funky decor gives it a fresh , contemporary look.
