What you get
Rooms follow the standard Premier Inn format, with accessible rooms available. Breakfast and dinner are served in the Thyme Bar & Grill on site, which is useful given the hotel's position away from the centre's restaurants. It is a sensible pick for families, contractors and anyone visiting the east side of the city, where Cambridge's newer business parks and retail areas are spread out. Rooms are bookable directly with Premier Inn.
Parking and getting in
Parking is on site but charged per night and limited in number, so arrive early or check alternatives. The hotel says the city centre is under 15 minutes' drive away; buses along Newmarket Road are the easy option if you would rather not drive into Cambridge. Leave the car by 2pm on departure day to avoid extra charges, as the hotel asks.
Nearby
The Cambridge Blue and The Free Press, two well-loved pubs in the Mill Road and Petersfield area, are under a kilometre away. Head further towards town and Parker's Piece, the large green on the edge of the centre, is about a 15-minute walk. Travelodge Cambridge Newmarket Road is right next door, so check both if one is full on a busy weekend such as graduation week or a big race meeting at Newmarket.
