This Premier Inn opened in 2024 on Guildhall Street and sits in the middle of the city centre, a minute on foot from the Market Square and the Corn Exchange. It is a four-floor modern hotel with a restaurant and bar, an elevator and accessible rooms, and it offers the dependable standards the brand is known for. Guests rate it highly for cleanliness and location, and the room mix includes doubles, twins, family triples and family quadruples. It is among the best-value central options in a city where prices are high, and it suits families, groups and visitors who spend more time sightseeing than in the hotel. The river and Jesus College are about six minutes away, and nearly every main sight is on foot.
Location and getting around
The Corn Exchange and the Market Square are a minute away, the River Cam and Jesus College are about six minutes, and King's Parade is a short walk. The railway station is around twenty-three minutes on foot, or a short taxi or bus ride, so plan your luggage accordingly. Because the hotel is in the pedestrian heart of the city, you will rarely need transport once you arrive.
Rooms and facilities
The hotel offers about ten room types, including Standard and Superior doubles, standard twins, accessible rooms with roll-in showers, Premier Plus doubles and family triple and quadruple rooms. Standard doubles are compact, so choose Superior or Premier Plus if you want more space. A buffet breakfast is available for an extra charge, and the restaurant and bar make dinner easy. Wi-Fi is available in rooms. The hotel does not have its own car park, and nearby public parking is the usual option, so many guests come by train.
Who it suits and what to know: it is ideal for budget-conscious families, groups and first-time visitors who want a central base without a premium price. Cancellation terms and rates vary by flexibility, and prices rise at weekends, in the summer and around graduation. The hotel is smoke-free and does not allow pets. If you want a quiet night, ask for a higher floor away from the street and the evening bustle of the Market Square.
