I loved everything about this hotel and I am usually very picky. The staff provided us with everything we had asked for within minutes and without any complaints. They even gave us some milk for our toddler as we had run out and didn't have the chance to buy any. The room was clean, big and very comfortable. I would definitely stay there again.

The property is clean, has awesome windows, is very spacious and has all the facilities to cook your own dinner, a Waitrose store nearby so it was easy to buy a frozen pizza and make it in the middle of the night.

Andy & Amanda were FABULOUS HOSTS! Very personable, generous, kind and most interesting people. When we arrived at their home, we mentioned that we planned to walk to the archives (for my work), some distance away. Andy offered to drive us, which permitted us time to relax in the cottage and have tea and cookies (provided). After we were refreshed, Andy gave us a mini-travelogue while driving us around Ely before dropping us at the archives.

    Ely is a compact city and the sights can be seen is a day.

    Ely is a compact city and the sights can be seen is a day. The jewel is undoubtedly the cathedral which is stunning. We ascended the octagon tower which is a 'must'. A riverside walk is also very worthwhile.

    The quaint city of Ely in the county of Cambridgeshire,...

    The quaint city of Ely in the county of Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom is far enough off the beaten path and such a lovely place worth visiting that I highly recommend a visit. If you are like me and look for remarkable sites with a lot of local culture while avoiding major crowds, then Ely is your place. Here are my main reasons why you should consider a 2-3 day visit to Ely as part of your UK holiday. 1. Ely Cathedral -- be sure to book a tour in advance. I highly recommend taking the Octagon tour also -- a world architectural marvel! 2. Ely Museum, Stained Glass Museum, Oliver Cromwell's house, waterfront, and walking paths. 3. Local culture. We found a laid back and inviting community. We engaged in numerous conversations with so many people over the weekend. It was welcoming and relaxing. Ely is truly a hidden gem!

    Ely is a small city with a big cathedral. The cathedral is impressive both inside and out. Other attractions are Oliver Cromwell's house, a museum, riverside with marina and lively Saturday market. Parking is generally free so it is an easy destination for a day visit.

    A lot to see in a compact, walkable area. The Cathedral is very impressive, with great, guided tours and I attended several services. City Museum and Cromwell Museum are each worth a visit. Walking around the town, from the top of the hill to the Riverfront was very interesting and enjoyable.

    Great small town, close to Cambridge, good rail links. Ely itself has an impressive Cathedral, and nice canal with narrow boats and pubs. Often has activities on during the spring/summer months, loved listening to music by the bandstand.

    Always loved Ely having trained at the RAF Hospital in 1965, met and married my late husband and made wonderful forever friends. The little city has a long history, delightful old buildings and a magnificent Cathedral and is surrounded by pretty villages, its own railway station and interesting Fenland. So worth a visit with Cambridge an added bonus.

    This was very competitively priced for New Year’s Eve. The room was comfortable and clean with a lovely garden view. The cooked breakfast included in the price was delicious and freshly cooked to order. It was a short walk in to Ely city centre from the hotel.
