Drift Inn at Wyboston Lakes

Amazing hotel, lots of facilities, beautiful views and friendly staff

Unfortunately I chose this property as geographically convenient and for the opportunity to swim. The pool 'advertised' is not in the hotel but across 2 car parks (the hotel's and the sports centre) and does not belong to the hotel. I was told I needed to book a time slot. I tried for a Sunday early evening but the pool closed at 4:00 so I suggested 3:00 - no that was booked for families. Okay Monday morning at 7:00 (breakfast finishes at 9:00 in the hotel). I went to find the pool already had 5 people in it and there was a sign saying maximum 5 in the pool. I said I had booked but they shouted at me they were members and did not have to book a slot. I got in and a gentleman got out and I swam for 5 minutes feeling very upset. No towels provided. Luckily I took one with. The breakfast was appalling. Part buffet (limited but ok) and the cooked breakfast was the worst I have ever had. Undercooked greasy fried eggs and the rest was as bad or worse. Hotel to their credit accepted my complaints and gave me a reduction but my one night away did not leave me relaxed or happy. I would add that the room was not in the main building. Quite a long walk in, out and to reception and the restaurant. The room itself was comfy and pretty clean (apart from 2 clipped false nails found on the floor) but surprisingly too hot in the middle of a cold winter. On a ive note all staff were pleasant and tried to be helpful but the pool issue and breakfast 'chef' really need sorting.

Enjoyed an overnight at Wyboston with our 6 week old baby. Staff were welcoming and facilities were excellent.

All goo plus Tesla charging near within walking distance

Room was spotless, bed was comfy. Staff are lovely and helpful. The food is good and the settings are great. The only thing that stopped me marking a 5 was the fact to play darts & shuffleboard cost quite a bit. Darts are generally free to play in pubs but here was £25! Shame as it was raining so we would’ve spent some time in the bar playing games had it been cheaper.

First visit, been fully upgraded, really big open spaces, rooms are spacious and comfy. The brasserie restaurant was a nice place to be, good food and great drinks with good, friendly service. Y spa was excellent, just what was needed.

Staff and hotel room clean enough, hotel does not have a receptionist and the iPad crashed meaning waiting with no one to assist for 15minutes. Also the gym, room and restaurant are all in separate building, the gym is a public gym which hotel staff can use and is accross a car park. Dining staff and restaurant setting nice, food was ok but nothing flash. Car parking was very easy and free. I personally don’t like lazy hotels that don’t have receptionists etc and having to walk accross a cold car park in shorts at 6 am was not great so probably would not stay again but for quiet over night stay is a nice place.

Clean and staff helpful. Gave the impression pool and gym part of the hotel but it wasn’t.

This is a little gem of a hotel, while the rooms are on the smaller size they are well equipped and have everything you need (apart from a fridge). Staff are friendly and keen to help, bar area is brilliant with the table top interactive game, shuffle board, interactive darts and ps5’s. Had the duck pizza which was a winner. Didn’t use the spa due to the cost but hopefully will on our next visit. Breakfast was nice and fresh, good coffee and a lovely view of the lake. All in all this is a nice hotel. Highly recommended.

Parking readily available, gym accessible, rooms clean and comfortable.

Good hotel, combined with the Willows training centre. Rooms are comfortable and clean

A very relaxing and nice place to stay. The room and bathroom were spotless and the staff were all very professional and friendly. I have to make a special mention of Lizzie (the receptionist) who made an extra special effort to return some lost property to me.

Unfortunately the rooms do not match the hotel lobby/bar or restaurant area. The room smelt musty and very unpleasant. If you are expecting a travelogue sort of room, that is what you will get. Our superior room definitely wasn’t that!

Clean, friendly and welcoming, would stay again when in the area.

Very disappointing stay bar the breakfast Room was unclean brown stains on the wall in toilet ?? Windows had mould ..hairs on bathtoom floor and 1 complimentary tea bag and biscuit Photos made the place look a lot nicer more of a corporate events hotel

Spotless rooms Great front desk staff Fantastic burgers

The breakfast room is beautiful - right on the lake-side. There was building work going on, so trying to work from the room was a little frustrating due to the noise. I also found a bug in my room. But the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. Room service choice was also really good. Good value for money.

Clean and tidy

Everything was clean and modern. A very comfortable stay.

Hotel was modern. The restaurant was lovely for dinner and drinks. The bed sheet was stained. No air conditioning which I know was stated when booking but I did not expect the room to be as unbearably hot as it was. Staff were not helpful with trying to find solutions for this. We had to ask for an additional fan rather than be offered it. Seems strange that the hotel has computerised check in machines, robots in the restaurant but can’t afford air con. I thought the cost of the room was too much for how unbearably hot the room was. I will not return which is a shame as the restaurant was lovely.

The room was clean and fit for purpose. However they are not very well sound proofed. One morning we were woken up at around 8am to workmen at both ends of the corridor, drilling and banging. We were not pre warned of this, and were informed that they shouldn’t have started until 9 am.One night there were guests making alot of noise in their rooms keeping us awake. The rooms do not have phones in for you to Ring the reception desk. We ate breakfast and dinner in the bar which we could not fault, it’s also worth going a few minutes up the road into st neots. The location was great and easy to get to other places. The staff we saw were also really polite and friendly.

Lovely hotel and room and the gym was just amazing. But the room was so hot. No aircon, just a little fan and couldn’t open the window. Didn’t get much sleep.

We had a deluxe room which was roomy and had a little fridge with a couple of cartons of water which was welcome. The bathroom was lovely with a rainfall shower. All the staff that we met were polite and friendly. We had a lovely couple of days here, I would certainly recommend the Waterfront hotel.

Room very warm, air con very noisy. WiFi wasn’t working as I had work to do, spoke with reception and they did nothing. Food was cold had to be sent back. Very disappointing as it’s been rebranded.

Extremely noisy with guests playing loud music into the early hours

The rooms are lovely, comfy with everything you need. Staff very attentive. Breakfast is great.

Lovely welcome, reception smells lovely! I want to know what that scent is ! Food amazing, only a couple things that let it down for us, no A/C for a room that price, it was unbearably hot so we unfortunately had a terrible nights sleep, and no fridge so all our food went off / melted and drinks were so warm, also an information leaflet about local facilities would have helped, times prices etc, but did love the site, lots of games, free pool, outside darts etc

The mattresses were far too soft. It felt like sleeping in a hammock. When asked to swap rooms/beds there was no alternative. Premier Inns exceed them.

Checked in very late and reception team were on site and helpful as the online tool did not work.

Lovely stay. Food was good. Service was excellent. A couple of technical issues in room, but they were dealt with efficiently. Would stay again.

Nice overnight stay for a reasonable price. Flexible support from staff due to limited physical ability, swapped rooms to ground floor for us.

Lovely rooms, very nice staff and pleasant surroundings

Check in, check out not great. Lost the personal touch. No instruction on check out process. No receipt received...

Perfectly okay stay. Nothing special and room was comfortable, but too hot. Auto check-in is terrible!

Balls flying through the air while walking on the path way by the golf range.

Staff friendly and left us a special congratulations message on our bed. Property very clean and quiet location.

A stop off on our way to Newmarket. Very happy with everything and enjoyed dinner at the Gravel Pit which exceeded expectations. Will definitely use the Waterfront again.

The breakfast room is beautiful - right on the lake-side. There was building work going on, so trying to work from the room was a little frustrating due to the noise. I also found a bug in my room. But the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. Room service choice was also really good. Good value for money.

Pleasant stay, nice location, we were unfortunate in that there was a lot of noise from spa; our room was ground floor and backed directly onto outside pool which was in use 8-late. Breakfast order was incorrect but quickly rectified, good food, nice views from restaurant onto lake. Would stay again but request quiet room next time!

Beautiful and very relaxing for a couples weekend away.

Excellent place to stay access to road and motorway

Nice room, great facilities, restaurant closed at 8 and there’s not much around other than a McDonalds service station or a supermarket around so evening meal is limited.

Good choice of drinks at the bar and plenty of options at breakfaat. Comfortable room.

Room very warm, air con very noisy. WiFi wasn’t working as I had work to do, spoke with reception and they did nothing. Food was cold had to be sent back. Very disappointing as it’s been rebranded.

Lovely , helpful staff. Quirky Robot Waiter/Waitress Good Choice at breakfast

A slightly curious, albeit faceless corporate events hotel. The faceless touchscreen check-in sets the tone, albeit with a member of staff hovering in your peripheral vision while you do so. The room was clean and warm, frustratingly the extract fan to the bathroom emitted a low level hum at all times (much like leaving your toothbrush on charge). Having requested that breakfast for one be added at booking, it subsequently wasn't and I was then charged an eye watering £17.50 (?!) retrospectively (it's £13 on Hotels.com). Avoid

Only slight negative was the food quality was ok but not as good as you would expect from the price of meals compared with other similar establishments visited.

The rooms are lovely, comfy with everything you need. Staff very attentive. Breakfast is great.
