It was my second time at Riverside Inn, and obviously, there is a positive reason I chose it again. It's a clean and orderly place, with a very English atmosphere, on the banks of the river. This time I was given the tiny room with the external bathroom on the first floor. It's not bad at all, only one has to sneak their way to the bathroom, trying not to bump into the other guests, especially in the morning. However, my whole experience was very positive, and I'd choose to stay at Riverside Inn even a third time. Thanks a lot!

A lovely little hotel within easy walking distance of the Cathedral and other sights. Real character and the garden is large and very restful. Breakfast was superb, with fresh and preserved fruits that made it a real treat.
Formerly an inn from the 18th /19th century, this family-run, Ely Guest House is just 2 minutes’ walk from beautiful Ely Cathedral.

We had to wait 1.5 hours outside to before someone came and let us in. When we actually got in after a really long day at work the rooms smelt of used chip fat and cooking from the restaurant below. We decided we would rather travel the 2 hours to get home that stay here.

We spent 2 nights on Puzzle in November - not the best time to stay on a narrowboat in England but the brilliant central heating made it totally possible. It was very cosy and had absolutely everything we needed. If you're looking for something unique and bespoke, this is definitely the place for you. Martin was an excellent host, meeting us and allowing us to be flexible in checking in and out. There were a few little extras waiting for us on board which were much appreciated plus tea/coffee and condiments etc. For our second night, we bought food from the Tesco superstore (5 minutes walk away) and cooked in. It's a shame the weather was too chilly to sit outside on the deck for drinks or breakfast or to open the side hatches but we'll just have to come again when it's warmer! Ely is a great place and I highly recommend the cathedral tour and Octagon Tower tour.

A huge plus for Ely is free car parks no need to worry about time .well done local council.another lovely part is down by the riverside. All of Ely is walkable.lots of eating places.we were at a concert in the Cathedral and were amazed and thankful that the public loos were still open during the interval

Ely is a wonderful small town for a few days stay - along the river is excellent on a fine day and a nice pub to have a drink and watch the world go by. Ely Cathedral was magnificent - we have visited many across UK and this is certainly one of the best - Stained Glass exhibition is also worth a visit. Cromwells House and Ely Museum worth a visit if you have time. Ely Cathedral has the Armoury Cafe which we would recommended for lunch. For dinner: The Lamb was excellent with wonderful food at a fair price.

Stayed at a hotel 10 minutes walk into Ely, the weather was extremely windy but we enjoyed the walk. We found quite a few quirly shops plus alll the usual high street shops, a few cafes and few places pto have a tea or coffee. We were surprised that the local carparks were free … what a bonus.
We walked around the cathedral and were amazed at the beauty of this truly amazing stricture.
We can recommend the Minster Arms for an evening meal, where they offer good food and ample servings.
We only stayed for a day and night but there will definately be another return visit to Ely

We loved the cathedral, which was at its most mystical when we visited in December. We attended two fantastic events in the cathedral during our stay – but needed a mulled wine afterwards to warm us up!
Another high point was the Farmers' market, which had all sorts of tempting foodstuffs on offer.

One of the most magnificent cathedrals in Europe,which sits in most beautiful parkland, at the centre of a bustling, prosperous, quirky small town on a major river in the heart of the fascinating Fenlands of England
The approach through the big gates are quite breath taking. The views of the grounds are spectacular - wonderful sculpted hedges and well maintained grounds. The double room was finished to a high level and spacious. Staff were first class. nick the night porter went above and beyond to check me in and get me to my room when I arrived past midnight.
Fantastic location being so close to Ely train station, which I used to avoid driving in to Cambridge itself. Good strong wi-fi throughout the hotel as well - great from a works perspective.
The Boathouse is maintained immaculately and it even has a large private garden as a bonus. The hosts provide all essentials including a bottle of milk, tea/coffee, jams, microwave, iron etc. The property is larger than the photographs portray and is stylishly presented providing for a relaxing and homely stay. A car is essential as the property is in a countryside location. I would definitely recommend this property especially if you are looking for somewhere to relax in peace and quiet.
- very calm and quiet rural area
- private parking next to the house (door to door)
- modern, homely and warm house with live TV
- fully equipped kitchen: table, chairs, cooker, microwave, kettle, fridge, pans, plates, mugs, cutlery etc. - more than I have ;-)
- fresh milk, croissants, biscuits and chocolates + coffee/tea/sugar
- comfortable bed
- towels provided
- friendly owners
The location, the food and the room was exceptional !!
Very peaceful and comfortable
The Room was immaculately clean and well presented with a great balcony looking over the river.
Bathroom is probably the best bathroom I’ve had in a hotel.

More of a personalised experience compared to a boring hotel room.

Everything you need for a couple's stay in the area.
The hosts were really friendly and easily accessible. Overall, we thoroughly recommend a stay and would definitely come again.
clean and lovely rooms with air conditioning and facilities and the staff were helpful and friendly plus the hotel is in a good central location. The restaurant food was very tasty and the gardens lovely to sit on and have a drink in the sun . Ely itself is a lovely town and we’d definitely return for a visit again
This hotel is absolutely ideally located just on the edge of Ely. The city centre is a very pleasant, short walk away. The room was very comfortable and had everything you would expect. Breakfast was superb with lots of choice, including some more unusual options. A great stay from start to finish, thank you.
Lovely hotel, staff were so friendly and helpful, room was spotless and air conditioning made it even better. I can honestly say its the best breakfast I've had. Location was perfect the river was 5 minutes walk away and the town centre 5 minutes the other way. Will definitely be returning.
The use of the leisure facilities in the health centre a few yards from the hotel,
The friendly staff
Near places of interest, Ely cathedral, and river,

Great location just across from the Ely Cathedral and close to the main market area of town. great bar and breakfast room. Nice robe in room. the bathroom was huge! Shower was fantastic.
