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.

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.

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

Lovely room on a beautiful quad. Spacious, historic, wood-panelled walls. Comfortable bed. Modern en suite bathroom. Relaxing. Friendly cleaning staff and porters. Coffee/tea/kettle in room.

A delightful place to stay. Comfortable room, beautiful grounds, convenient location. Nice welcome from the porter. Shame they don't offer free parking any more.
