Can't fault this gem in beautiful Ely

Pros: From the lovely, friendly welcome to the delicious breakfast the next day, we couldn't have had a better stay. Situated in the heart of beautiful Ely, and staffed with truly lovely people, the Lamb Hotel is a gem. We also ate dinner there and the food was great. Close to lots of bars, cafes, restaurants and shops and of course the amazing Ely Catherdral. Highly recommend.

Fabulous.

Pros: Everything. Three of us stayed for one night for Ely beer festival, and the Hotel provided everything we required. Good location, a comfortable night's sleep and extremely friendly and efficient staff. I had actually made a major mistake by booking for the Saturday evening instead of the Friday I should have booked, and didn't realise the error until we checked in. On a busy weekend I fully expected we would be turned away, but the very kind and understanding lady on the hotel reception managed to sort out three individual rooms for us, which were actually upgraded from singles to doubles at no extra cost. Thanks again!
