The 131-room apartment-style hotel joins the global portfolio of more than 100 one-of-a-kind hotels and resorts, each handpicked for its distinctive character and unique charm.

Not only chic, the hotel will provide a range of carefully curated experiences designed to unlock the history of the city and showcase its full offering from the authentic perspective of a local.
Culture vultures can enjoy unique pieces of artwork and sculptures, all designed locally in Cambridge. Adding to the ambience, each of the room categories are named after people associated with the city and notable Cambridge fellows such as Kipling, Newton, Gormley and Attenborough.
This includes king rooms, studios and one-bedroom apartments, together with Fellows Duplex apartments split across two levels. All studios and apartments come with fully equipped kitchens, ideal for relocation, project workers and extended stay alongside workation-style getaways. Families can comfortably stay in a one-bedroom apartment or in the two-bedroom The Fellows Family connecting room.
