Reviews of Downing College
"A beautiful spot in the middle of Cambridge. Really enjoyed walking around college gardens"
"For some reason, each time my team pay for events here, the porters make it their mission to be as rude as possible. We spend thousands, book ourselves in for parking, but are then met with ridicule, bemusement and general disdain when entering the office to ask for instructions. Suffice to say I shall be advising my organisation against booking here in future, in favour of another college."
"Nice room in a very lovely campus in Central Cambridge. Unfortunately, on the last night there was a very noisy function in the garden below that went on until midnight. Very loud."
"If you are looking for a convenient and beautiful 'new' college to visit in Cambridge, then Downing is a great choice. It has amazing courtyards surrounded with pastel yellow buildings. There is a cafe within and Heong Gallery always has nice exhibits displayed."
"Fantastic venue for an event or conference. Plenty of accommodations (though not luxurious) with a phenomenal atmosphere for a large function that encourages you to open your mind to new ideas. Catering was fantastic as well."
