We stayed here for a families-get-together for a number of nights and it was absolutely great - everyone, from young to old, loved it. It was a big group and we took up the entire guesthouse. The hosts, Duncan and Emma, were so very kind and hospitable: first when handling the complicated reservation, and then throughout our stay, in figuring... More

Me and my friend stayed here for one night after having spent the day in Cambridge. We were greeted with a very warm welcome by the owners who also asked us about our Cambridge knowledge, handed us a map and explained to us how to walk or get a bus into the centre. Our room was cosy and quaint and... More

It is nineteen years since the first of our sons began his studies in Cambridge, our younger one has now completed his doctorate, married a fellow Cambridge doctor and, still working sometimes in the University, with a brand new family. We tried lots of B & Bs and Cambridge hotels in the early years and were often disappointed by the... More

When our daughter came to study at Cambridge, we needed a base which we would be happy to return to on a regular basis, and Victoria House fitted the bill perfectly. Not only are Emma and Duncan friendly, helpful and hospitable, the establishment is lovely and furnished with charming touches so lacking in more corporate estabishments. The decor is, as... More

We stayed here for one night, getting two rooms, both of which were fine but nothing special. They were certainly small all over, and slightly dated in decor, but.... fine, and clean. It was a bit of a walk into the city centre, made harder by awful weather - in the evening, we lashed out on a taxi to get... More

I'm hoping the owners look at this review and see it as constructive criticism. There are little tiny things that could be done to really improve a stay here but i do notice that if anybody on here makes less than perfect review - they do comment rather defensively. I will start with the positives. The host Emma met us... More

Stayed at this B&B for one night, stayed in the single ensuite room. Upon arrival I was met b the owner Duncan, who was very friendly and welcoming.

Location: Once you orient yourself to the Cambridge city layout, you quickly discover that Victoria is a mere 2 mile walk to the city center, where all the colleges and shops are located. Alternatively, several bus routes stop at Arbury/Milton and at the bottom of Union Lane (#2), and both of these stops are within 10 minutes' walk to and... More

We spent 2 nights at Victoria B&B. The room was ok, quiet, with all facilities but without being really charming. However, the location enabled us to walk to the center of Cambridge in 30 minutes and the breakfasts were good. To conclude, this B&B is a good trade-off if you want to stay in Cambridge but you must not expect... More
