We had a lovely stay. Our room was immaculate and spotlessly clean. The river view was beautiful. Breakfast was lovely with plenty of selection. Would definitely stay again even though train noise was quite disurbing at times

The room was very clean, good size bathroom with underfloor heating, bed and pillows were very comfortable. For me the duvet could have been thicker as I turn the heating off overnight but that’s personal preference. Overall a really good stay and will come back soon.

The position is ideal being near the station, but not on a busy road and it is a fairly easy walk up to Ely cathedral and the centre of Ely

I don’t mind self check-in at all and this one worked well. The room was lovely though with no view at all I would class it as overpriced. Breakfast didn’t make up for that whatsoever. The cooked breakfast was cold on both mornings we stayed and the bread was dry so my sausage sandwich was far from enjoyable. Little touches could be improved on eg more than one toilet roll for a couple staying for 2 nights. When paying as much as we did for the stay I don’t think rationing the sheets per toilet visit is very fair. Also, if I had realised that there was a need to grab a croissant at breakfast before the other guests took one, rather like having to be up early for a sunbed abroad, I would have got in there! Sadly, every opening and closing of door below goes through you as you try to sleep and you can pretty much hear every word being spoken in the room below All in all I would say the stay was an expensive lesson in not selecting to stay here. The location is lovely right on the river. But not being able to see it and being disappointed by the breakfast mean it could have been anywhere and certainly not worth paying for the privilege

Very friendly staff, spotless room, luxurious bed, tasty breakfast, great facilities. Just a shame that the very basic TV could barely hold a signal and became unwatchable, and the WiFi wasn't working (after logging in, there was no internet available).
