Great location - nice team

April 6, 2026

From arrival the team were so welcoming at the porters lodge and around the grounds.

The room was large and comfortable and had all we needed – the location was great right in the middle of all the areas we wanted to visit.

Breakfast was plentiful and tasty and when requested we got some bananas.

Calm oasis amongst the bustle of Cambridge

Excellent location. With 24/7 porters coverage I could leave my overnight bag whilst I checked out Cambridge and walked to Grantchester.

To sleep amongst all the history of the college was amazing.

Beautiful grounds.

Porters were very friendly and helpful.

Didn’t have time to visit the Buttery Bar so a good excuse to make another visit! Thank you.

Fun novelty experience

April 2, 2026

Such an fun experience! The staff was very friendly, especially the porters. Amazing location and surroundings and as I quickly learned, many colleges are closed to the public/require tickets (understandable!), so it’s great to get the opportunity to walk around the different courts.

The room was clean, the little shared kitchen looked clean and functional. Breakfast was tasty (not gourmet but definitely better than average hotel buffet breakfast). We stayed on a Sunday night but I can imagine that the pub right across on King Street gets very loud on Fridays and Saturdays, and the windows aren’t soundproof at all. The bed was uncomfortable. Still, I would gladly come back another time to explore more of Cambridge and the surroundings!

More than accommodation; an experience, superior hospitality, cultural and natural surrounds, excellent service shown, extra friendly and helpful folk, a feeling of community. I appreciated the courtesy and kindness encountered. Perfect if busy bordering roads could be quietened at night!

Lovely except for poor soundproofing in our room

Large modern room on first floor of building 4 with ensuite, great location, friendly porters, beautiful old buildings and gardens around and a nice breakfast. Sadly the stay was spoiled by getting very little sleep because of extremely poor soundproofing. You expect to hear loud partying, but I could hear every car go past and every normal conversation outside, which could easily be fixed by some modern soundproofing. I feel sorry for any student assigned that room longterm.

I would highly recommend a stay if you can get a room in a different block or away from the street.

Lovely porters, room a bit loud

April 1, 2026

I had a shared bathroom room and it backed straight onto King Street so I was serenaded by the song of the number 1 and number 3 bus going past, with guest appearances from drunk yelling people. The room itself was surprisingly nice and warm which is hard to get in Cambridge. The shared bathroom (next to room 4.02) was a bit sad – the bath needed the drain cleaning out, the shower curtain was too long and dragged across the bottom of the bath to try and trip me (so I didn’t even try to shower, just had a shallow bath). The toilet roll holder was bizarrely sticking out right where you put your arm when you sit on the toilet so you have to sort of exist around it like a rude neighbour on a plane.

The porters were absolutely lovely and helped me out when I didn’t have my phone charger at 11pm. The breakfast was amazing – they even had vegan yoghurt! Nobody has vegan yoghurt! It made me feel so valued!
