Experienced hotelier Jon Nield, joins The Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa team to drive the resort forward with a new energy, focusing on customer experience and local community.

The Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa, part of The QHotels Collection which has 21 hotels and resorts located across the UK, are delighted to welcome Jon to the team as they embark on a new chapter.
Jon Nield, the new General Manager says: “I’m thrilled to come on board and take lead in establishing Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa as a high-end four-star resort aimed to attract and deliver for both leisure and corporate guests. With processes realigned, it’s important our guests experience a great feeling when they arrive, enjoy the best possible service at every touch point and exceed their expectations. More importantly than ever, we understand people want value for money and memorable experiences.”
Nield has plans to implement a destination-led strategy that supports putting Cambridgeshire on the map by creating a resort feel for the property, adding and maximising facilities to attract a full mix of visitors, from couples and families to large corporate groups.
Eager to make stronger connections in the local areas, Nield says “Community is absolutely everything. It’s the life and blood of our hotel, I’m really passionate about supporting the local community, and this is a key part of our strategy”.
