Downing College is a lovely place to stay with the buildings and location offering something special over a hotel. The rooms themselves are a bit more basic than a hotel but the bed is very comfortable and the room and facilities are sparkling clean with excellent service during the stay. And the location is perfect exploring Cambridge. Staying at Downing is a lovely way to get a sense of college life while you're in Cambridge.

Although my stay was brief, I really enjoyed it and felt like I was a Cambridge student. The environment was very quiet and peaceful. One small thing I noticed was that everyone seemed to wake up early, and the gravel paths made footsteps outside quite noticeable. Other than that, it was an excellent place to stay for a short visit.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Downing College which is in a great position close to the centre of town and several other colleges. The arrival process was very easy and the porters friendly and helpful. The room itself and the ensuite bathroom were very clean. Very comfortable bed ! would definitely stay again

I had a wonderful time staying in Downing! The room was comfortable and the view was amazing. It was a very convenient location. We were able to check in early and they kept our luggage for us the next morning. The porters were delightful: interesting, warm and helpful. I would definitely stay again.

Thoroughly enjoyable - excellent room and facilities, clean and very comfortable and quiet in beautiful very large gardens and grounds. Friendly from first contact with porters' lodge, breakfast staff. Highly recommended!

JudyC

Friendly help from the porters while booking in and out, spotlessly clean room with everything we needed and a great location for getting around in the City. We would like to stay here again sometime.

Room GH06 was very hot due to afternoon sun. In summer a fan should be provided automatically, or even better an aircon unit. Downing's excellent porters lodge provided us with a fan on request
