The Hobson, offering a unique concept to a luxury boutique hotel in Cambridge. A Grade 2 listed former police station, itself a Victorian redevelopment of a site owned by Elizabethan philanthropist Thomas Hobson, who coined the phrase ‘Hobson’s Choice’. Located just 45 minutes from London, on the banks of the River Cam, in a City steeped in history. A jewel in the crown of Cambridge’s’ historic city centre.

In one of England’s most evocative cities, The Hobson offers a range of luxury suites ideally suited for both romantic getaways, family gatherings and corporate travellers.

Located in the very centre of Cambridge, St Andrews Street is one of the city’s busiest and most exciting locations. With quaint cobbled side streets, shops suiting all budgets and the best dining district in city, where better to experience the best Cambridge can offer?

From financial advisement to initial design and planning submissions, stakeholder relations, market research and its early presentation to the travel market, The Hobson is in safe hands with Essential Hotels to ensure maximum occupancy at the highest average room rate, along with offering a truly unique luxury product the likes of which Cambridge has not yet seen.
