Winding its way through the city centre, the River Cam is used for swimming in the summer, punting and canoeing on the river and, of course, famously for rowing throughout the year. Visitors can enjoy visiting the University, as well as Wren Library and Cambridge University Botanic Gardens. Traditionally, the best view of the buildings is by taking a punt tour along the River Cam as most of the older colleges are situated near the city centre and along the river.
Catering for all tastes, there are many restaurants in Cambridge to choose from, or why to try SIX, our relaxed brasserie and bar complete with breath-taking views across the historic Cambridge skyline. The River Bar Steakhouse serves mouth-watering steak, chargrilled chicken, fish, burgers and vegetarian options. Enjoy an incredible view of the city from the comfortable sofas on our roof terrace.
The Varsity Hotel is located in Cambridge city centre, just a 7-minute walk from Senate House and the closest hotel to most of the university colleges. Our 44 luxury bedrooms and suites are uniquely designed to celebrate the cultural history of Cambridge and are the ideal home from home for a family with older children when visiting Cambridge.
After your punting experience view the Cambridge skyline from our iconic Roof Terrace along with a delicious cocktail.
The Varsity Hotel offers 44 beautiful individually designed rooms on the river and in the centre of Cambridge.
Enjoy lunch, dinner, afternoon tea and cocktails in our Panoramic Bar and Brasserie overlooking 800 years of Cambridge history.
