With the Hilton legacy at its core, the latest hotel offering in Cambridge has something special for everyone
One of the most anticipated openings of recent times in Cambridge, The Fellows House is already wowing locals and visitors with its sleek design and high-end blend of dining, accommodation and spa facilities. Located on Milton Road, the hotel offers 131 bedrooms and is part of Hilton’s Curio Collection, which also includes design-led destinations in Hollywood and Barcelona.
The interiors are bright and luxurious, with marble, monochrome tiling, sumptuous furnishings and eclectic clusters of artworks. Homage is paid to the city’s academic heritage, too, with college crests and rooms named after notable Cambridge Uni fellows, such as Newton and Attenborough.

The in-house restaurant is The Folio Kitchen, serving a combination of classic comfort food and interesting plant-based dishes, from burgers to beetroot wellington. Sitting alongside is The Folio Bar, a sleek cocktail lounge overlooking a courtyard with seating and firepits. There’s also The Sage of Cambridge, a coffee shop by day, wine bar by night: this multitasking space is a great spot for cappuccino and cake with a friend, lunch with the kids, or even as a venue for remote workers to do some blue-sky thinking. From 5pm, the wines and aperitifs are wheeled out, just in time for early evening indulgence.
Elsewhere in this expansive hotel, guests can discover a stylish mini spa, complete with indoor pool, sauna and steam room, plus state-of-the-art gym and boardroom facilities. The bedrooms, meanwhile, include studios, king rooms and one-bedroom apartments, as well as Fellows Duplex apartments, offering spacious accommodation split across two levels. All studios and apartments have fully equipped kitchens, making them ideal for longer-term stays, or simply those looking for a luxurious home from home.
“We are thrilled to open this unique property in the historic city of Cambridge,” says Steve Cassidy, managing director of Hilton, UK & Ireland. “It has something for everyone, offering the perfect base to return to after a long day of exploring, working or studying. As we all look forward to travelling again, we’re delighted to give guests more choice, with 14 new properties opening across the UK this year, extending our world-renowned hospitality.”
