ibis Cambridge Central Station, hotel in Cambridge

The ibis Cambridge Central Station has a 24-hour front desk that offers express check-in and check-out.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! One of the standout features was the excellent soundproofing of the windows. Our room faced the train station, and despite the close proximity to the tracks, we couldn’t hear the trains at all. It was impressively quiet, ensuring a peaceful and undisturbed rest. Highly recommended for travelers looking for comfort and tranquility, even in a busy location!

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.

    The overall feel was quite calm and relaxing despite being quite busy, probably because it's not car friendly in the centre. Lots of interesting and historical buildings relating to the University and others to look at. Some good pubs to visit for a drink and or a meal and plenty of decent recent restaurants. A shopping complex in the centre and also lotts of other shops

    Cambridge is really a mix.

    Cambridge is really a mix. It has two faces: a college town with lots of students and a hugely modern commercial center. Very different from Oxford, where the downtown has classic stuff only and on the edge is a super modern shopping center. Cambridge has all in one place. Right in the middle of the old town, is a huge shopping mall. I should say both are well merged, We enjoyed exploring (on foot) all the small windy alleyways, cobble stoned passages with towering college buildings on both sides, churches and chapels, green college campuses, Cambridge castle ground overlooking the entire town. We enjoyed evening mass at King's College Chapel (quire's evening song was amazing, free to visit, but you need to stand in line in a timely way to get in), and enjoyed reasonable food at the covered market (we visited there twice for reasonable eats). One and a half days were not enough in visiting all the wonderful museums ( we visited Fitzwilliam Museum, Sedgewick Museum of Earth Sciences, Whipple Museum of the History of Science!--we did not have time to visit Museum of Classical Archeology)! On a sunny day, canal walk and a visit to botanical garden must be fun!

    I like the city- my daughter is a student here.

    I like the city- my daughter is a student here. Always feels very safe etc. Beautiful obviously with great shops restaurants and places to visit It’s really toxic to car drivers though- ridiculous parking charges, poorly indicated bus lanes with very aggressive cameras. Very poor and over priced public transport. I suspect it’s deliberate council policy to deter drivers, but until they sort the public transport they will still come. I brought my 80 years old mother so had no choice but to drive really. Not very welcoming to wheelchairs so a big fail for their EDI. A bad taste in the mouth when you have spent a fortune on parking and then taxis only to come home to bus lane fines when I want even aware I had contravened

    I had to come to Cambridge by car and this was a perfect location for me: I could leave the car there and get the 3 bus from outside the hotel straight to appointments in the city centre. (Better than Park and Ride!) Staff very helpful: they lent me an HDMI cable so I could use the in-room TV as a second screen for a Zoom meeting. Good, freshly cooked breakfast with vegetarian options, and the on-site Italian restaurant was perfect for a meal at the end of a long day.
