Despite varied reviews we booked a room in the hotel due to the location next to the cathedral. We had a good stay - Room 4 had a king-sized bed, effective double glazing, warm (snow outside) with an adequate bathroom with great shower. Parking is great if you can get a space. Ate in the hotel on the Friday night... More

Mean and disappointing, reminded me of the 1970's. I heard diner was no better. They need to up there game as to be honest it is not acceptable to have been ripped off in such a manner. The location and environment is fine and it seemed a pity that the kitchen is happy to serve up what they did. Colleagues... More

I had not looked at the previous reviews prior to my stay, but just as I was writing this, I noticed the previous review by martinet7. My comments pretty much mirror the previous reviewer.

The secondary glazing meant the room was fairly quiet even though it overlooked the main road through Ely. Large choice at breakfast. Not So Good - There were some sections of the room that had not been properly cleaned. These included the... More

The Hotel is right in the middle of Ely, and directions downloaded from the internet are spot on. We arrived late, and check-in was swift. The room was cold, however warmed up within minutes of turning the radiator on. We found the room too dark, as it has low-energy lights, and so requested additional lighting which arrived within seconds and... More

My wife and I visited The Lamb on Wednesday (Thursday is market day in Ely, so it wasn't particularly busy - there were tables available). I went to the food-ordering area to order our lunch, and was told by a not-so-customer-friendly waitress that there was a 40 MINUTE WAIT for food, and she walked away. Wouldn't have minded if she...
