IN PARTNERSHIP WITH WILDE APARTHOTELS
Don’t just visit Cambridge – see it the Wilde way …
Dreaming of an autumn escape with boutique charm, cultural flair, and literary edge? We’ve teamed up with Wilde Aparthotels, the Irish-owned boutique aparthotel lifestyle brand to offer one lucky winner and a guest the chance to enjoy a two-night stay at their brand new property in Cambridge City Centre – a destination that blends timeless heritage with modern vibrancy.
Tucked just moments from the picturesque River Cam and a ten-minute walk from the famed King’s College, Wilde Cambridge offers the perfect base to explore this richly storied city. Whether you’re meandering down cobbled streets, punting through leafy waterways, or soaking up the atmosphere in historic cafés, the city invites you to slow down, savour, and stay a while.
Your Stylish Cambridge Stay Awaits
The winner will enjoy a two-night stay for two in one of Wilde’s exquisitely designed studio apartments. Think: boutique hotel polish meets residential ease with a fully equipped kitchen, generous living space, and tactile interiors that balance warm wood finishes with brass accents and velvet touches.
The apartments are designed for slow living: perfect for morning rituals, lazy afternoons, or an elegant aperitif before dinner in the city. You’ll find the fridge stocked with breakfast essentials and snacks, with breakfast in-house provided on one morning of your stay. Whether you prefer artisan pastries or a full English, the setting ensures a restful, refined start to your day.
Adding to the experience, guests will receive £50 credit to spend at Oscar’s, Wilde’s in house café-bar that transforms effortlessly from morning lattes to evening cocktails. It’s a creative, contemporary space that embodies the spirit of the Wilde brand – bold, curious, and always a little unexpected.
Explore Like a Local, Rest Like a Creative
Oscar’s isn’t just a place to sip, snack, and settle in, it’s a celebration of local craftsmanship and sustainable sourcing. From seasonal charcuterie platters to artful cocktails and a selection of indie wine labels, the menus are inspired by quality and provenance. There’s even a sun-filled outdoor terrace perfect for a lazy afternoon or an al fresco glass of rosé after a day spent exploring Cambridge’s hidden gems.
Art lovers will feel right at home. Wilde takes curation seriously, and the Cambridge property is no exception. The interiors are layered with local artistic talent, including surrealist oil paintings by Cambridgeshire-based Adi Novac, 1960s cityscapes by Margaret Souttar, and thought-provoking photography by Sid White-Jones, a rising star from nearby Ely. It’s an immersive, design-led stay with creativity at every turn.
The inspiration behind the brand is, of course, Oscar Wilde himself and that literary spirit lives on in the thoughtful details, playful design flourishes, and emphasis on art, wit and intellect. This is a stay that invites you not just to switch off, but to be inspired.
Where Design Meets Sustainability
Wilde Cambridge is also part of a new generation of hotels putting sustainability at the forefront. Alongside solar panels and a rainwater harvesting system, the building plays host to bee hotels and birdhouses, designed to promote urban biodiversity. It’s luxury with a conscience that allows you to indulge, explore and unwind, all while treading lightly on the planet.
Whether you’re booking a romantic weekend, a best friend getaway, or a solo reset, Wilde Cambridge offers a quietly luxurious base from which to explore the best of the city with history, culture, architecture, and food, all within walking distance.
From gallery-hopping and book-browsing to punting under the Bridge of Sighs, Cambridge is a destination made for THE GLOSS reader, and Wilde is the modern, elevated way to experience it. Visit www.wilde.com for more information. Wilde Aparthotels is part of Staycity Group.
