Staff claimed it's the largest spa in Europe. I couldn't verify that. But it was very, very good.
I got upgraded to a sea-view corner suite, scored free family breakfast every morning, and watched my 3-year-old conquer his first water slide.
Marble floors, chandelier overhead, rosé at dinner. University Arms Cambridge is Cambridge done properly.
Exposed brick, timber beams, and a cobblestone courtyard — but Marriott Platinum got me absolutely nothing here.
I loved the sweeping manor grounds and that indoor pool — but frankly, the food let it down.
