Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s Open Lobby restaurant serves food throughout the day, and there’s a 24/7 room service menu for late-night cravings. The To Go Café is perfect for grabbing a quick bite on your way out to a gig. A generous buffet breakfast is available in the morning—ideal if you were out late the night before. A full-service bar is also on-site for pre-show drinks or a casual nightcap.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself offers a relaxed, pub-style bar, you’re just a short drive or taxi ride from Huntingdon’s local pubs and nightlife. If you're headed to a bigger venue in Cambridge or Peterborough, you're never far from the area's best music and bar scenes.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the clean, modern rooms, friendly staff, and quiet, peaceful setting. The free parking is a big bonus, and many reviewers appreciate the hotel’s convenient location for event travel. The breakfast buffet also earns high marks, especially for those recovering from a late night out.

Areas for Improvement

While the hotel is well-connected by road and rail, it’s not in the heart of a city, so you’ll need to plan transport to and from your concert venue. Some guests mention the on-site gym is quite small—but hey, who’s working out after a gig anyway?

The Bottom Line

A peaceful and practical stay just outside the city, Holiday Inn Huntingdon Racecourse is a smart choice for concert-goers looking to recharge in comfort after the show.
