What better place to study the future of hotels?

HOBSON_GUESTROOM_03.12

A new kind of hotel is coming to Cambridge, the celebrated university city that’s moving with the times. Opening soon in its historic heart, The Hobson is a Rogue City Hotel. The clue’s in the name. It’s rogue because it refuses to conform, offering a less prescriptive, more immersive kind of luxury.

How? We edit out the unnecessary and enhance the essential. By perfecting the room itself, and connecting you to the best restaurants, bars and spas in town (with exclusive deals in each), we feed your independence. Because when you’re at the heart of it all, everything you need is already out there.

History whispers from every stone of
this Grade Il listed building moments
from the green expanse of Parker’s
Piece. Reborn as a contemporary luxury hotel, its storied past includes stints as
both a Victorian police station and a
jail, on a site once owned by
Elizabethan philanthropist Thomas
Hobson. But this is no ‘Hobson’s
Choice’. Today, The Hobson is the alternative for independently minded travellers in Cambridge.
