The High Flyer, hotel in Ely

Located in Ely and within 17 miles of University of Cambridge, The High Flyer has a bar, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi.

Breakfast was not included although it was offered but at a latter time in the morning which was not convenient for us as we wanted two full days visiting Cambridge. Therefore, we took breakfast in Cambridge, 'on the go'. The Inn was clean and tidy and the staff were polite and helpful. I would recommend the High Flyer.

    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.

    Loved the cathedral and the purpose of the visit was to see a performance of Dickens “A Christmas Carol” in the evening at the cathedral. A lovely way to start Christmas. A very good production of professional actors. Also went to the market and High Street and Oliver Cromwell’s house. All very interesting and enjoyable. Great pubs, good beer and food within walking distance.

    Beautiful town, great variety of small shops.

    Beautiful town, great variety of small shops. Very pretty down near the river with the canal boats. Stopped off in the morning at the Almonry Tea Rooms right next to the Cathedral, for great cheese scone and coffee. Great photos to be had of the cathedral from the gardens at the back of Tea Rooms. Had a tasty carvery at the Riverside Bar and Kitchen overlooking the river. Every where very well signposted. Found our way easily to the railway station, when we travelled to Cambridge for the day. Lovely walk through Cherry Hill Park on the way. Sun shining on Cathedral made great photos! A little bit sad that they charged £10 to get into the cathedral. I think a voluntary donation would have been more appropriate to make a magnificent building accessible to all in these tough times.

    Very comfortable stay for us and our 5 month old baby (we brought our own travel crib). Short drive to Ely where we were attending a wedding. Excellent communications with Peter and Gill, who are very friendly and accommodating. The studio is spacious and light-filled (love the big window) yet cosy, with a well equipped kitchen. We would definitely return if we were to be in the area again. Thank you for a great stay!

    More of a personalised experience compared to a boring hotel room. Great cosy feel with excellent facilities. Private parking is so convenient. 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.

    Kind of old-fashioned typical small town English hotel. Lots of character and very helpful staff but maybe in need of some modernisation, particularly with the bathrooms. But for a short stay in town then this place does the job. Perhaps a little overpriced for the quality of the rooms but definitely happy to stay here.
