The hotel had a cozy Japanese style bedroom above the bar, which was comfortable once the heating was adjusted. The staff were very friendly and helpful, despite occasional noise from other guests. The central location was ideal for exploring Ely, although it could have felt a bit cosier. The dining experience offered a delicious Full English breakfast, but the menu choices were limited. Overall, a welcoming stay with some minor room temperature adjustments needed.

The hotel provided a cozy and comfortable stay with a wonderful shower room but would benefit from some minor decorative repairs. The rooms were small but very cozy, offering all essential amenities. The service was friendly and accommodating, with an early check-in option. The location was full of character and great for exploring Ely, though a bit quiet. The dining experience offered cooked breakfast only, which was satisfactory. Facilities were decent, though some minor improvements could be made.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, although the morning traffic noise from the High Street was a bit bothersome. The room was spacious with a large bed, a decent shower room, and a lovely decor. However, there were some minor decorative repairs needed, like plaster coming away from the walls.

The staff went out of their way to ensure a lovely stay. They were helpful, friendly, and polite, even accommodating our requests about shift times over the phone. The service truly deserves a pat on the back.

Location

The hotel's location was excellent, right on the High Street and within a short walk from the train station, restaurants, bars, and shops. However, it might not be ideal for light sleepers due to the traffic noise.

I enjoyed a good selection of food provided promptly, tailored to our short time constraints. The dining experience was elevated, but some basics like offering drinks were missed. However, the food quality was excellent and catered to various needs.

However, the adjacent pub added to the convenience and ambiance.
