There appears to be 24 hour reception which was a relief as we arrived late. The staff were great, the room was very clean and comfortable and there was an abundance of off-street parking. Well-situated within walking distance to the town centre and with a restaurant on site.

Peterborough FAQ: Tips for every trip

All trips

How many days should I stay?

A two to three-day stay in Peterborough gives you enough time to explore the main historical sites. You can visit the 12th-century Peterborough Cathedral and the Bronze Age ruins at Flag Fen, leaving a day for walks around Nene Park or nearby nature reserves.

What is Peterborough best known for?

Peterborough Cathedral defines the city centre with its Early English Gothic architecture and the tomb of Catherine of Aragon. Travellers also visit the Bronze Age settlements at Flag Fen and follow walking routes along the River Nene and nearby country parks.

What's the best area to stay?

Staying in the city centre places you within walking distance of the railway station, local shops, and Peterborough Cathedral. For a quieter environment with direct access to woodland trails and lakes, look for accommodation near Nene Park on the western edge of the city.

First visit

What are the best things to do in Peterborough?

Start your visit at Peterborough Cathedral to view its mediaeval architecture and the tomb of Catherine of Aragon. Walk the outdoor trails around the lakes at Ferry Meadows in Nene Park, then explore local history exhibits at the centrally situated Peterborough Museum.

Where should I stay on my first trip?

Select accommodation in the city centre near Cathedral Square to keep local travel times brief. This location places you within walking distance of Peterborough Cathedral, central dining options, and the main railway station, providing a convenient base to explore the wider Cambridgeshire region.

What’s the easiest way to explore in Peterborough?

Walking is the most practical way for first-time visitors to navigate Peterborough's pedestrianised centre and reach key historical sites. For travelling further afield, use the local bus network or hire a bicycle to access the city's extensive cycle paths. Ride-sharing apps and private taxis are also readily available.

Family stays

What’s the best way to get around with a family?

Local busses feature step-free access for pushchairs and connect the city centre directly to family spaces like Nene Park. The flat, pedestrianised central streets make walking with young children simple. For travelling further afield, ride-sharing apps and local taxis offer convenient point-to-point routes.

What’s the best thing to do in Peterborough with children?

Explore Ferry Meadows in Nene Park, which boasts walking routes, cycle paths, and water sports facilities. Railworld Wildlife Haven combines model train exhibits with nature conservation areas. The historic Peterborough Cathedral and nearby agricultural centres provide educational day trips for all ages.

Where should I stay with children?

Look for accommodation near Nene Park to give your family quick access to open green spaces, walking paths and the Nene Valley Railway. Alternatively, booking a family hotel in the city centre provides convenient proximity to restaurants, cultural sites and direct public transport links.

For quick access to national transport links, the city centre boasts hotels within a short walk of Peterborough railway station. If your trip involves visiting local corporate offices, select accommodation near business parks like Lynch Wood, which provides direct routes to the A1 motorway.

Ferry Meadows is a superb place to go with all the family.

Ferry Meadows is a superb place to go with all the family. Plenty to do and lovely wildlife areas. We would have liked to stay longer to visit Peterborough itself, with it's Cathedral, Guildhall, excellent shopping facilities, theatre and night life. We used to live in Peterborough so it would have been lovely to revisit old haunts.

Peterborough has very few attractions apart from the Cathedra. As a priest this was our main reason to visit but it was closed to the public all day die to 3 performances of a show about Songs from the shows!!!- Not what you expect from a Cathedral - stay away>

I loved the location but would not stay at this hotel again because the old worn out sofas made me feel uncomfortable. Also, the fact that we had to practically beg for additional towels for the spa, as opposed to using the towels from our room (as suggested) left a strange taste in my mouth. I would not choose to stay here again.

I cannot see any reason for visiting Peterborough except to visit the cathedral. Apart from the cathedral quarter it could be any modern town with all the usual outlets, plus the usual streets of barbers and vape shops, these are not a comfortable area for a single woman.

Peterborough Cathedral took my breath away.

Peterborough Cathedral took my breath away. An incredible building. Definitely worth a visit. Donations of £6 per person is a real bargain. Great cafe/restaurant next door, Argo Lounge. Delicious food especially the cheese toastie.

Walking distance to the cathedral that was easy to find. Paid for the tower tour which was excellent. Visiting the cathedral was the only reason we came to visit. Turkish kitchen was loud and busy but they found us a table and we had good service and food.

This was quite possibly the best budget hotel we have stayed in. The room was clean with the bathroom free from grime and the usual 'seen better days' silicone everywhere! Plenty of space in the room to lounge with practical desk space. A varied selection for breakfast in, again, a clean environment. Staff are welcoming and friendly. We visit Peterborough a few times a year so this will certainly be our accommodation for the visits going forward.
