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.

    Punting down the river recommended especially the historical side and banter . Cambridge Punt Company. Private tour of the area with universities, good hour and half of walking and seeing the sites learning history of Cambridge. Very knowledgeable, different tours some are very different, choices depends on money and what you want to do. Pre booking needed . Botanical Gardens amazing definitely a must to see, beautiful and quite stunning.

    Not a good idea to go mid-may as most colleges are closed to visitors with "keep out" signs and guards to enforce it, and that just adds to how posh the place looks and feels. The Scott polar research exhibit was the absolute highlight of my stay though

    We didn't visit the Centre of Cambridge.

    We didn't visit the Centre of Cambridge. We visited the Museum of the History of Computing which was fascinating! We then travelled across Cambridge to Eddington to stay at the Hyatt Centric for the night. We chose this hotel as it was opposite The Storey's Field Centre which was hosting a concert. The hotel was excellent, in house restaurant The Astronomer catered well for vegetarians. Eddington is a really lovely area, well thought out, looks new and clean and inviting! Love to go back

    Have been in this historic town several times.

    Have been in this historic town several times. Always mesmerised by the beauty, culture, historic presence, academic ethos of this town. There are different characteristic colleges of Cambridge University within short walking distance. A lot to see, experience and great food. Lovely scenery, green space and enjoyable stroll along River Cam. Impressive architecture. Very fond of Cambridge with good memories. The museums contain treasure. Not enough time to see everything. Will come again.

    Even more beautiful than the photos!

    Even more beautiful than the photos! Very clean and we felt very safe! The day tickets for the bus was £3.50 each and they last for 24 hours which is amazing! All flat so more bikes than cars which is great to see. Some paths can be quite thin and the roads always flowing with bikes and cars. I don’t know how ideal it would be for wheelchair access. We ate at The Astronomer as that was the closest to our apartments. We ate at Novi, Fitzbillies (we was stuffed!! Great food and prices), the MillWorks (only dog friendly in the bar area - the two tall tables). Benets and chop house were great locations for outdoor drinks with good views. The Lucy&Yak store and staff were amazing. Such a great, safe space and size inclusive. Full of colour. The giraffe walking tour was fabulous to get us exploring the city! We would’ve visited museums and botanical gardens if they was dog friendly!!

    Crowded - difficult to get a decent seat for coffee.

    Crowded - difficult to get a decent seat for coffee. A restaurant we used last time did not offer English food on the Sunday and were so, so slow. I wish we had brought a paper map - the online maps are so cluttered and confusing - we just wanted to know where the churches were and Google was just not up to it. A bus map with all the stops would have been very useful and would have saved us some time - again the Google mapping of stops was poor, and the automatic times at the stops sometimes wildly out. Fitzwilliam museum - some brilliant displays, but cafe disappointing. All you need to know is that the Universal electric bus (U1/U2, Kermit-green) from the station does stop right outside. When you travel up from Kings Cross station in London make sure you catch the 'fast' train - it can be difficult to find the platform and you can easily catch the very-slow by mistake... staff are unhelpful so (1) work out the geography of the station first, then(2) keep your eyes glued to the main departure board till the platform shows, and (3) run!

    A great 3 day break. Staff excellent (special mention to Phoebe ... first class) and hotel really clean. Great location. Easy access to Cambridge city centre ... either pleasant walk by the river or 5 minute train ride from Cambridge North. Seen other reviews mention issues with parking ... there are no issues. Car park is easy to find and right by the hotel ... I could see the car from the hotel room! Would definitely stay at Novotel again and consider taking bikes ... Cambridge set up for family cycling.

    We have stayed at this hotel many times over the ten years that we were associated with Cambridge University. The hotel has an exceptional location, close to the best parts of town, but also close to the river and Jesus Green. It feels like home away from home. Unexpectedly, this time we also had a balcony which was much appreciated and had excellent views. Had a lovely celebratory meal at Six Brasserie. We also really like the roof top bar.

    The attic room is perfect for a single traveller on a budget who needs a place to stay for only a few days. Staff are very friendly, breakfast is amazing, and there is a bus stop right outside the hotel which makes travelling around Cambridge much easier. It really is within walking distance from the station if you arrive in Cambridge by train.
