Railway Lodge does the trick! It is very near the train station and walkable to the university. The proprietor is warm and entertaining, internet access is free, and the breakfast is generous. It is definitely not a big, glitzy, corporate hotel (or even a small one!), but how much richer my trip to Cambridge was to have stayed at the... more

We are a party of 6 and have now stayed here for the same weekend for 5 years on the trot!! Tony has always been very welcoming. The rooms are alway's clean and the breakfast is top class!! The price is competitive as well. It is in a good spot close to the railway and within staggering distance from the... more

Upon arrival, I was a bit surprised to see that the Railway Lodge was in a semi-residential area. A quiet area near the train station, but quite close to shops and restaurants. In fact, it was less than 5 minutes walk to the train station. I took the coach out of town, and that was about 10 minutes walk to... more

We stayed for 3 nights in Railway Lodge and have to say that it was more then perfect place. Facilities were beautiful and clean and the location is perfect. The owner is very helpful and friendly. If I ever get to Cambridge again, I will definitely choose this place. more

My fellows and stayed in the RL for 3 times while we were in Camebridge (we are originally from Germany) for studing. We allways had a great time being there. Mr. King is a great host, who has always an open ear for the wishes of his guest. Perfect for us was the place because ist is near to the... more

We enjoyed our stay here. It was conveniently close to the railway station. The manager, Tony, was friendly, helpful and had a great sense of humour. The room was clean and the breakfast was more than adequate. We had a family room which was very comfortable. Would certainly return. more

It was the worst B&B my wife and I have ever stayed on our trip. We can’t see why it was rated a 3-Star guest house by Cambridge Tourism Board. The rating is certainly not commensurate with its quality and conditions. First of all, the woman host lied to us on a phone enquiry promising us that we would be... more

Management response from
Bannister45, Owner & operator

What amuses me about this review is its figurative language and narrative style. However, the use of descriptive words such as 'arrogant' , 'miser', 'dingy' and 'dirty' point to its spitefulness and vengeful nature. I remember these guests very well. At the very outset, they made a big issue out of the fact that there was no parking space and...

We stayed here for one night so we could go out drinking and not have to worry about driving the 40 miles home, or getting an extremely expensive cab. We thought the guest house was just fine for what we wanted. The decor is very dated, but we weren't planning on doing anything in our room other than sleeping, so... more

The location is very good if you're travelling by train - maybe 5 minutes walk from the station. I left by coach - the place to catch the coaches is maybe 15 minutes walk. Takes quite awhile to walk into where the colleges are, 20-25 minutes at least. Due to its proximity to the train station there are quite a... more

This is a small bed and breakfast place very convenient for the train station in Cambridge. I had a room at the top which was extra cosy due to one of the hot water cylinders for the house being in one of the cupboards. The food was good and the staff very pleasant and helpful. Two good things that are... more
