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. 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.

    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.

    I was informed that my booking was transferred to their sister hotel - Arundel House Hotel. I had an exceptional experience there with my daughter. The hotel’s location was excellent, right next to the big park and river, 12min walk away from the city centre. The room was clean, spacious, quiet, free parking, friendly staff, service was a top notch and excellent breakfast and dinner! We really enjoyed our stay and I will definitely stay again at Arundel hotel if I come back to Cambridge for a short stay.

    This is an old inn used for travelers since the 1600’s. It is beautifully restored and our room certainly met our expectations. The staff was pleasant and helpful. We enjoyed the full English breakfast, which cost an additional £15 each. Lots of meat!!! Plenty of parking and well lit. The church next door was a fun treat, which we visited the morning we left. John took us through the church and proudly told us about it. What a great start on the day. We stsyed here while visiting nearby Cambridge.

    The room was larger than I had expected with a nice bathroom. Breakfast was typical ‘cafe’ type food and, although it was cheap, wasn’t particularly good and the coffee hardly tasted of coffee and wasn’t as hot as it should have been. When I next go to Cambridge, I will definitely choose a hotel that is closer to the town centre.
