The Fellows House, a charming hotel in the British city of Cambridge, opened this week and is finally ready to welcome its first guests. The property is operating as a Curio hotel, a popular brand in Hilton’s portfolio. The legendary US company already has a hotel in Cambridge, so the Fellows House is the second property in this idyllic city.

The design of the new hotel deserves a separate mention. There are numerous paintings and sculptures in the hotel, and all of these unique artworks were designed in Cambridge. The Fellows House is an apartment-style hotel that is great for both short and long stays. All room types, such as king rooms, one-bedroom apartments, and studios, have names inspired by either the city of famous people who lived in Cambridge – the “fellows” such as Kipling, Gormley, Attenborough, and Newton. Travelers who admire unusual designs should pay attention to Fellow Duplex apartments that have rooms on two levels. There are also Fellows Family two-bedroom apartments.

All apartments come with fully equipped kitchens, making the hotel suitable for long stays and relocated employees. The onsite facilities include a restaurant, a bar, a charming café, a cozy courtyard area, and an indoor spa center.
