subject: See All Cambridge Has To Offer By Staying At A Cambridge Hotel [print this page] With lots of history and a good reputation for learning Cambridge is one of the most famous University Cities in the world but it has a lot more than books to offer a Cambridge tourist. Cambridge has stunning architecture, a mix of old medieval streets, ancient bridges and gardens, as well as modern buildings that are as contemporary as ant New York or London skyscraper. You can walk around the ancient city centre taking in the beauty of an old city that jumps straight out of a historical novel.
You don't have to be an intellectual to take advantage of the history museums and art galleries; and with a strong student population performances from future stars can be seen at the Arts Theatre.
In the heart of the British countryside Cambridge is a beautiful city to visit at any time of the year, whether you want a picnic in the relaxing afternoon sun, enjoy the first buds of spring, walk through the frosty parks or walk amongst the autumn leaves. Cambridge has lots of pubs, restaurants and cafes to sit and relax in or you may want to explore the brand new shopping centres with your favourite high street shops and designer names for you to spoil yourself. There is also a historic market place that has independent retailers who will help you find a gift or souvenir that is unique and different.
Being a historical city, Cambridge has a number of festivals and traditions that if you are staying at the right time of year you can enjoy first hand. You could be lucky enough to enjoy the carol singing in Kings College Chapel or watch the great boat race, where students from Cambridge and Oxford compete in the annual boat race along the Thames. Cambridge are the victors to date of 79 out of 154 races but Oxford won the 2009 boat race and are close on their heels with 75 wins.
Cambridge offers far too much to see in just one day so book into a Cambridge Hotel to make your stay special. Cambridge Hotels range from new buildings or some hotels date back hundreds of years and your Cambridge Hotel owner can tell you a little about the history of the hotel you are staying in.
