If you are in the area visiting and want to sightseeing this affordable accommodation is perfect for necessity. Close to a range of shops and the staff were all helpful.

Only downside was that Internet wasn’t the best but still usable the bathroom wasn’t very spacious.

The college is beautiful – what a place to be housed as an undergrad! Second Court room was clean, somewhat sparse/basic, and truly oversized loo/shower room, perfectly adequate for a short stay, and comfortable bed. Glad we had a garden view. There was noise from the adjoining street – but only really audible in the bathroom. Staff were most kind and accommodating, and the Buttery Bar pleasant and welcoming. Central location ideal for our explorations on foot. Enjoyed our visit and would stay again.

Lovely place to stay.

Nice and clean.

Extra room that even came with a piano!

So nice to get to stay here, beautiful gardens/views.

Comfortable bed.

All staff polite and helpful.

The guy at breakfast so helpful and friendly too.

(I stayed 1 night 23/8/25)

Large room, very clean, spacious bathroom with shower over a bath. Very noisy until late the next morning but we had been warned in the description before booking and it was a Saturday night in August Bank Holiday weekend

Ground floor disabled room, noisy by the outside door but absolutely fine, lovely friendly staff at porters lodge, but appalling wi-fi, if any signal at all, and bathroom very very basic no shelf, no toilet seat nowhere to put anything, tiny hand basin, poorly flushing toilet and difficult to get ready for a wedding with any comfort.

A bijou room, with everything one needed. Very clean, with a huge openable window, quiet with a view of the rooftops. The bathroom was tiny, but it all worked, and was an experience. An excellent stay in the centre of Cambridge for a very reasonable price.

One thing, though, the WiFi sign in is convoluted and slightly ridiculous in this day and age!

Our 3rd visit here. The other 2 were in the 2nd court whereas this one was in the 4th. So no lovely view over the court but very comfortable nevertheless. Once again we enjoyed sitting in the Fellows garden and were entertained by a young fox running across the lawn and in and out of the shrubbery!

The porters were very helpful and we enjoyed a good breakfast before we left. All in all another successful stay.

Lovely place to stay whilst briefly in Cambridge. The porters and dining staff were really helpful.

My room was enormous and far surpassed my expectations. Very good value with breakfast. The grounds were beautifully tended and a joy to linger in.

I did struggle with the temperature in my room which had huge skylights which I couldn’t manage to open. It was a hot and airless August night! Not sure if something was broken in the mechanism or it was just me. Also I found getting onto the internet unnecessarily complicated. Again, it could have been me!

Crists College is an astonishing breath-taking place. You can have a bed, shower and breakfast anywhere but the experience of leaving in a beautiful college in Cambridge is just second to none. Amazing room and everyone was exceptionally helpful.

The porters ran this and they were helpful and accommodating. Really kind and lovely. Hearing we were married in the chapel 55+ years ago they were charming .

The room was a little tired and small and hot if the weather had been heatwave but it wasn’t . .The window had no lock but we were able to shut it when workmen started outside just before 7. All in all an amazing trip down memory lane . Bit worried about the window a single person might have felt more unsafe.,maybe you could see to it. ?
