Felix

Cambridge


It's the bold modern art and imaginative design that nudge Felix into the boutique sleep spots. You'll find vividly coloured chairs set beside polished wood panels in the lounge, and silk curtains, duck-down duvets and underfloor heating in the bathrooms. Felix is 1.5 miles northwest of the city.

The Penthouse suite, up in the eaves, is an utterly romantic retreat.
