Rough Guide
Star
"This is the city’s most appealing hotel by a long chalk, occupying a modern 1960s building a couple of minutes’ walk from the centre."
The Telegraph
7.0
"Architecturally rather bland, but in a city short of decent central places to stay, this is a well-run, very good value option, especially if having a well-located base is more important than spending time in your room." Full review
Independent
"Embracing its academic history, bedrooms have pops of Cambridge blue and dusky pink, clever punting boat-themed cabinets, and leather, library-feel desks. "
The Telegraph
9.0
"Don’t be put off by Graduate Cambridge’s ugly exterior, as inside lies a quirky, cosy hotel with clever decor that nods to the city’s heritage and a destination restaurant with sustainable, local produce at its heart" Full review
The Guardian
"Opening in July on the banks of the Cam, between Sheep’s Green and Scudamore’s Yard, Graduate Hotel will have a suitably cosy and bookish decor with comfortable seating around mahogany tables – the ideal atmosphere to tap away undisturbed"
Independent
"The Graduate Cambridge sits right in the heart of the city’s historic centre on the banks of the River Cam and offers complimentary bike rentals, luxury culinary experiences and visits to the university campus"
