Bases to Explore
Cambridge is a place best explored by foot, bike or bus. With children it can help to stay in a hotel nearby so that you can pop in and out of the room for naps or changes with small children and babies. You can stay outside of the city too, as it is accessible by good bus routes. The hotels listed are just a small snapshot of the many places to stay. However all cater for families and all are near enough the city to be able to easily explore on foot. It does tend to be on the medium to high end price wise to stay within the city. However there will be a list of budget options soon so watch this space! Near the station or in the city are good options. Some hotels will also hire bikes, help make a picnic and organise sightseeing. If you have any other suggestions, do get in contact.
TO NOTE: Due to Covid restrictions some have restricted opening times and a limit to some facilities. Check each hotel for details.
