OUR HISTORY
A Cambridge Heritage
The buildings that form The Centennial Hotel were constructed before 1900 using traditional Cambridge brickwork. In the early 20th century, the townhouses were used as railway lodges for workers and locomotive superintendents during the expansion of Cambridge’s railway network.
Over time the buildings evolved into the charming hotel they are today, retaining their historic character while being carefully adapted for modern guests.
Today, The Centennial continues to welcome visitors from around the world, offering a stay that reflects both the heritage and hospitality of Cambridge.

Location was ideal for me with easy access to get in and out of town. Given a room at the back overlooking the car park which was very quiet so a good nights sleep. Very convenient facilities.

Nollaig
Staff was friendly, helpful, and courteous. Committed to Covid19 cleanliness standards. It is also not far to walk to the city centre. The on premises car park was a primary reason for choosing the Centennial.
Amy
From the moment we arrived at reception it was excellent. The guy on the desk was very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and spotless with a lovely bathroom. The service at breakfast was excellent staff couldn't do enough. The car parking was off the road behind the hotel and safely out of sight.
