Christ's College is an old institution with lovely grounds in the centre of Cambridge and it is easy to walk to attractions.The accommodation is in a modern block at the back of the grounds and was built by the architect for the National Theatre .So I was faced with a huge flight of concrete steps and no lift!Luckily I had help with my case from a gardener on my arrival and a cleaner as I left and in between I got quite fit! But I think you should warn prospective guests with limited mobility as there are rooms at the ground floor of the block for which you do not need to use the steps. Breakfast was included and was very good with options of cold meats, juice,fruit,cereal,cooked breakfast, toast, bread and jam as well as tea or coffee.The room was modern with ensuite facilities ( mini wetroom). NO TV but once I managed the complicated instructions I could use my tablet on college wifi.Excellent value for money!

It is really interesting to stay “in college” for those of us who have never had the experience. Don’t expect luxuries. But the room was large, clean and comfortable; the breakfast “in hall” was fine. The location is perfect for seeing all the Cambridge sights. Something a little different than a run of the mill hotel room.

People could not do enough for me. Porters, cleaners, gardener. Would be the only place for me in cambridge to stay. They have improved their facilities, could not be better. Presentation a key.

As it was in the student accommodation it is fairly basic but suited my needs perfectly. You can feel the history as you walk through the courtyards, fantastic location. Breakfast was fine as well. Beautiful city to walk around in.

Excellent low cost stay
Easy walk from Cambridge station. Nice, cheerful greeting from the guys at reception. Explained exactly how to get to our respective rooms. Room was clean, clean towels and a basin with complimentary soap etc. Being a single room I expected smaller but was easily big enough for me. Shared bathroom facilities were clean although very small. Probably the smallest shower I have had to try and squeeze into but being clean was the most important thing to me.

Simple student room with basic necessities. Shared bathroom didn't seem to be attended daily as some traces of rubbish left by others are observed for more than a day, along with loo roll not topped up at some point for a day. Would have appreciated availability of fan during the week of heatwave. Overall this place is good for it's price, very convenient location, and surrounded by beautiful old buildings.

Check in was straightforward and no issues. Easy to access most places by foot in Cambridge. The environment is very quaint but when it gets dark, the room in Staircase 4 was disturbed by Thursday night out groups till late, I suppose it’s university students area.

Good value but basic
Overall not bad, one of our rooms had a big stain on the carpet which didn't look very inviting, but the rest was ok. Decent enough rooms and in a great location. One big drawback was no TV in the room. But for the price, compared to what else was in the area it was definitely value for money

Thank you for your feedback. I will ask our housekeeping manager to check the carpets for stains and get them cleaned where we can.Unfortunately as these are student rooms during most of the year we are unable to put TVs in the rooms for guests.

Check in time of not a minute earlier than 2pm was hugely inconvenient...i arrived at 11am and had to hang around for 3 hours. Check out is 10am...i think the 4 hour difference is unreasonable.

It slightly depends on what room you get - old or new building, bathroom attached or not - but in general, this is a great place to stay, wonderful campus, charming surroundings and Buttery, location excellent, price very reasonable, stayed here more than once and always felt it was the right choice.

It is in a great location. The room was just like a hotel room with all amenities. The new building in which my room was, was not as picturesque as the rest of the college but it was lovely to walk in the grounds of the college. The breakfast was excellent and in a beautiful setting.

There were several defects in the bathroom, including one H&S issue, which I reported to the Porter on leaving. There were no parking or luggage unloading facilities at the college and this should be made clear in the advert. A street map of Cambridge showing long-stay car parks should have been available from the Porter on arrival. Breakfast was excellent and good value for money!
