Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves local specialties in a classic setting — great for a pre- or post-show meal. There's also a cozy bar on-site for a nightcap.

Breakfast is available and perfect for sleeping in after a big night out.

Nightlife Options

While The Old Bridge itself is more about relaxed luxury than party vibes, you're just a short walk or taxi ride from Huntingdon’s pubs and bars. For those heading to Cambridge for gigs, the city's buzzing nightlife is only 20 miles away, making it easy to combine music and socialising.

What People Say

Guests rave about the friendly staff, spotless rooms, and beautiful riverside location. The food and wine list at the restaurant get high praise, and many note the hotel’s peaceful atmosphere as a huge bonus after a big night. Reviewers also appreciate the free parking and convenient access to the train station.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the building’s historic charm means a few rooms can feel a little dated, and there's no elevator, which could be a factor if you're carrying heavy bags after a long night. Still, most agree the atmosphere more than makes up for any quirks.

The Bottom Line

With its riverside charm, excellent food, and easy access to transport, The Old Bridge is a relaxing and stylish base for concert-goers exploring the Huntingdon and Cambridge music scene.
