FAQs about hotels in Cambridge
The Inspiration for Genius
Open-plan and open-minded, Cambridge is best known for university colleges dating to the 13th century. King’s College is the most popular, and its chapel choir is internationally famous. Although accessed from cobbled King’s Parade, it is best viewed from a punt on The Backs, the part of the River Cam behind.
Cambridge punting is an institution and gives great views of Queen’s College Mathematical Bridge and the Bridge of Sighs at St John’s College. Upstream is Jesus Green, site of an outdoor pool and a fantastic beer festival. Next to this is Midsummer Common, a park home to the annual Strawberry Fair (and the occasional cow). Opposite are the college boathouses - get up early to see the rowers in action!
Cows also roam the Mill Pond meadow, where the river leads south to Grantchester, a quaint village with a lovely cafe. Places to eat in Cambridge include riverside restaurants and typical English pubs like The Eagle, drinking hole of DNA founders Watson & Crick.
Cambridge shopping options include a daily market (in Market Square), the Grafton Centre and the exclusive Grand Arcade, the latest addition. The Scott Polar Museum and free Fitzwilliam Museum are 2 of many fantastic Cambridge museums.
Stansted Airport is connected by train to the city’s accommodation choices on Booking.com.

We enjoyed walking around the colleges. The market was fun.
We enjoyed walking around the colleges. The market was fun. The botanical garden is lovely. We had many options of halal restaurants for dinner - not the case in every town/city. Unfortunately, as it was not term time, evensong in King's Chapel was not on. I wanted my partner to hear it as it is so beautiful.

Cambridge is a beautiful and interesting city, but I was sorry that my visit wasn't in term time. Then it would have been really buzzing, and I would have been able to experience evensong at King's College chapel.

Good facilities in the services. Everything is on one level, so good for people with limited movements or a disability. Food outlets, toilets, fuel too. Always a busy place, but very tidy throughout. Electric car charging points available too.

It's a lovely town with a lively centre, and lovely old buildings. The river is charming, and it's very relaxed. People can go punting on the river, or eat / drink in one of the pubs and restaurants that look onto it. All the high street shops are here, and there's a market in the central square. Prices are high enough here, as it's constantly busy, so you don't really get last minute bargains. Therefore, book early!

Cambridge is a very pretty place with lots of charm & historical interest. We filled each day just discovering its magic! We watched the heron just standing in a stream. We saw huge swathes of blue windflowers near to The Backs. Delightful!

What a beautiful city!
What a beautiful city! Lots of lovely walks, beautiful architecture, friendly people, delicious coffee (tried Hot Numbers and Bould Brothers) and vegan food spots (Chai Walla is fully vegan and Venezuelan stall at the market had delicious option), shopping, good transport links. Would also highly recommend punting, you won't regret it, especially if you are lucky to get good guide who tells most interesting facts of colleges and bridges. I booked directly online with Rutherford's Punting, that's probably cheaper than buying in person.Little GUnited Kingdom

Room was perfect, had everything we needed including a kitchenette and washer dryer; bed was so comfy! We didn’t eat at the restaurant but the tequila bar was fab! Drinks were very good! Great location- Right outside the town center so a quick Uber to get into town for shopping and all the Cambridge sights. Well stay again thank you to the friendly staff as well.

FRANKUnited Kingdom - From £175 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 3,351 reviewsThis hotel is a little gem, close enough to walk into the centre of Cambridge with parking available too. The staff were all super friendly and the whole place was spotlessly clean. After reading some of the reviews I agree our room was a little dated but that doesn’t bother me it had every thing we needed. I would definitely stay here again.karenUnited Kingdom
- 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 24 reviewsThis is our favourite place to stay in Cambridge… just off the vibrant Mill Street, but tucked away so that you don’t have all the noise at night. Spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed with everything you’d need for a night or a week, and the most comfortable bed in all of the UK! ☺️. If this place is available, book it!
TanyaCanada - From £76.99 per night6.7Scored 6.7PleasantRated pleasant· 3,290 reviewsHotel was great but location was a nightmare in terms of accessing Cambridge. Next time I'd pay more and stay in city centre as traffic is so heavy. Was seriously late for business meeting. If you're not operating to a tight schedule the Ramada is a great value for money. Bed is super comfy.
