Our rooms were beautiful, comfortable and very clean, with everything we needed. Comfortable beds, pristine bathroom with lovely hot water and soft towels. Our room was freshened up while we were out (bins emptied, bathroom cleaned, more milk, coffee and teabags as we had used some etc.)

It's slap-bang in Ely's town centre and by market square. Despite this, it was quiet. If you are visiting Ely for the Catherdral, Oliver Cromwell's house etc, its all on your doorstep. Or, just turn right to head down the hill to the riverside. There are good places to eat just by the property such as The Turkish opposite and Le Spice an Indian restaurant just down the road. There was also a basket of biscuits, kettle crisps and bottles of water, tea and coffee and fresh milk in the fridge. There was a microwave in our room too. It had a good shower, and body wash shampoo and conditioner provided.

The house is immaculate. Very clean and comfortable. Proper size TV's. Great quality kitchen wear. Town centre was five minutes away but you still felt secluded, especially if you sit in the garden. The marina is 5 minutes in the opposite direction. Three adult size rooms. Parking is at the rear and easily reached. Ely is great and the parking opposite is free for 4hours, so even if you leave just before 11am, you can still stay the day at no extra cost. We were very impressed. Would definitely recommend

Ely is full of history & beautiful old buildings.

Ely is full of history & beautiful old buildings. The Cathedral is enormous & interesting. We visited Oliver Cromwell's house which is well laid out & very informative. My husband enjoyed the Ely Museum while I went to the lovely Stained Glass Museum. The Waterside Antiques centre is huge & fascinating. We ate at Limora & at Riverside Bar & Kitchen. Both great! Would return to Ely.

Ely Cathedral is a must see.

Ely Cathedral is a must see. All council car parking is FREE durnig the day. Downside is that Ely is popular, especially with free car parking, and parking spaces in car parks are only just wide enough for most modern cars

Cathedral is a must visit!

Cathedral is a must visit! Railway station reasonably close to the hotel. A variety of eating places, including within the cathedral grounds. Walking around the town is no problem but take note of when the gates at the cathedral are locked! Nice country parks to sit in.

We've never visited before and would now like to visit again. We ate in The Minster Tavern near the cathedral; the food was good and the staff welcoming. We had a lovely walk through the park to the magnificent cathedral before visiting Oliver Cromwell's birthplace, which was wonderful.

Ely is really a small town, not the size of a city.

Ely is really a small town, not the size of a city. Its main feature obviously the cathedral which is huge and superb, with all the nice features (tea room, helpful guides, bookshop, Choral Evensong etc) of a major CofE cathedral.

A hidden gem. I can’t believe how stunning the city is.

A hidden gem. I can’t believe how stunning the city is. Glorious architecture and a thriving market and high street shopping that is unique with high quality local produce and artisan crafts. The cathedral is just breathtaking. If you are a foodie there are so many cafes and restaurants selling high quality local produce. Would highly recommend.

I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean, which made it easy to relax after a long day. The location is excellent—just a short distance from the centre of Ely, making it convenient for exploring the area. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall positive experience.

It is a lovely old fashioned hotel. Comfortable, welcoming, good food, and a lovely garden to sit in and enjoy. A charming breakfast /dining room. Great location for exploring Ely. We have stayed a number of times and are never disappointed. It is all the things a corporate hotel is not and long may it continue.

The location was perfect to visit Ely Cathedral. We were able to park our vehicle in the hotel courtyard that was very helpful as my husband has a mobility problem. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. Staff are kind and helpful. There is nothing we did not like about Poets House.

I was pleasantly surprised by this accommodation, it was our first time staying in a “pub hotel.” The room was very clean. The only issue was that the shower drain was slow, but that didn’t take away from the experience. We only stayed one night, but we will definitely stay here again.
