It is an excellent place to stay in Cambridge

Christ College is an excellent place to stay in Cambridge. I like my stay there very much.

Quiet and peaceful stay

July 28, 2025

It was wonderful to be out of the hubbub of central Cambridge. The gardens were gorgeous, the porters helpful. My only complaint was the showers were miniscule, but it’s a dorm room after all. I was on an upper floor so there were a lot of stairs.

Great stay

July 26, 2025

Great 2 night stay right in the centre of Cambridge. This was a return visit as I really enjoyed a previous stay. Room was clean and tidy, bed and pillows were very comfortable. I think it’s great value for money for such a central location in the heart of Cambridge. Porters were very friendly and helpful. I love the peace and tranquility as soon as you step through the gate. The gardens are beautiful and very well cared for and I loved the vegetable borders! Breakfast is good value for money with a good selection of items.

Your Questions..

There is no parking on-site at Christ’s College. We recommend guests use public transport to visit us There are several Park and Ride sites located outside the city centre with frequent buses into Cambridge. If you are travelling by car we recommend that visitors use these facilities whenever possible. You can leave the car at the Park and Ride sites overnight but there is a charge. If you do decide to venture in and park in town the closest car park to Christ’s is the Grand Arcade or the Grafton Centre, however, do be aware that parking in Cambridge city centre car parks can be difficult (these city centre car parks are often full) and is also expensive. Cambridge city centre is often very congested indeed, particularly around rush hours and school run times (around 3.30 pm), when you tend to get stuck in a long queue. ). Be careful driving centrally as there are some bus gates, which will result in a fine if you go through them! Christ’s main gate is on St Andrew’s Street. Please see the directions to Christ’s College page for further information on public transport options
Please don’t smoke inside. Smoking is not allowed in bedrooms or any of the buildings in Christ’s. If you smoke, please be aware that the only area of College where this is allowed is the Darwin Portico behind Third Court. This has some shelter and is marked on the College map.
Please refer to the Terms and Conditions for individual bookings. If you have any questions, please contact our Reservations Office. The office is open Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 16:30. Email: reservations@christs.cam.ac.uk or call +44 01223 334926
