Our overall stay experience at Cambridge was bland and lacking in personal touch. The hotel's service felt routine and impersonal, making it feel like just another day-to-day activity.
And unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. From the moment we arrived, we encountered issues with misinformations.
The security guard at the entrance failed to clearly communicate the parking location for hotel in-house guests, leading to confusion about the parking area. The check-in process was swift thanks to Maya, and she was kind enough to gave us a dine discount voucher but she didn't provide clear information about the dine voucher's terms and conditions - the "subtotal and total" regulations, resulting in us being unable to use the voucher and paid in normal price.
We appreciated the Dino costumed guy in the lobby for entertaining kids during the check in queue. Our kids love the balloons and they enjoyed the welcome drink.
However, the most disappointing part was the breakfast on the 26th floor. With a toddler in tow, we struggled to find a baby chair, and the staff seemed too busy to assist us, resulting us to dragged the baby chair from across the room. The runners on black shirt were more focused on clearing tables than attending to guests' needs, making it hard to get extra napkins. The only standout was the Chef at the eggs station, who was attentive and enthusiastic.
Overall, the experience felt bland and impersonal, lacking the attentive service we expected. The staff's lack of empathy and clear communication made our stay feel like just another day-to-day activity. It felt like the staff were just going through the motions, rather than genuinely caring about providing a good experience.
The room was clean and comfortable, but that's about it. The hotel's amenities, including the pool and gym, were standard and unremarkable.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel for those seeking a memorable staycation experience.
