With its historical buildings, historical colleges and universities there are hundreds of reasons to visit Cambridgeshire located in the East of England. But where should you stay the night? I have stayed in quite a few hotels and inns in Cambridgeshire and this is what I think are ten of the very best of them all based on my own personal experience…

This restored Jacobean manor has some pretty amazing features and it also has its own gardens & lakes for you to explore. While it is little more than an upscale bed-and-breakfast I think it is a little touch of historical class at a pretty reasonable price.
Old Ferry Boat, Holywell Front, St Ives

With its thatched roof and whitewashed exterior this classic pub inn ticks all the right boxes. It is also thought to be Britain’s oldest inn and maybe that is because of its impressive views of the Great Ouse river that has allowed it to stand the test of time.

The Hippodrome, Dartford Road, March
The Hippodrome, Dartford Road, March – Book Now: >> CLICK HERE <<
You are probably wondering why I would suggest staying at a cinema! Well…it was indeed a cinema in 1929 but has since then been converted into an Art Deco hotel with 13 rooms that are all en suite. If you want somewhere quirky to stay this has to be right up there and I have to say the rooms are more spacious than you might think.
University Arms Hotel, Regent St, Cambridge

If you plan on seeing the Fitzwilliam Museum and Mary the Great this impressively polished hotel offers rooms larger than most peoples houses and even has a pretty great restaurant, bar and gym onsite. While some might say the price is a little high I think it is bang on point for what you get.
