A monumental cathedral

This was a short break mainly to reacquaint ourselves with the cathedral which is only yards away from the Lamb. However we had time to spend seeing more of Ely but also to visit Bury St Edmunds and Cambridge which are easily reached by rail from Ely.

Hot Lamb

The stay was comfortable, my only comment being that it would have been good to be able to open the window a fraction for a fresh draught of air as it was so swelteringly hot at night at the top of the building. Thank you for the fan which made it bearable.

hotels.com

Hotel itself was excellent. Problem was hotels.com which said that that hotel was wheelchair accessible, but was not clear that the rooms which we booked were not accessible. Despite booking several weeks in advance the hotel was only advised of special requirement (wheelchair access) on the day of our visit, by which time all wheelchair accessible rooms had been taken.

It was in a good position in Ely. The bar waiter gave me the wrong measure for my drink. He insisted it was right. I called the manager and she agreed with me and had to issue a re fund

The Lamb Hotel is in a very convenient location in Ely. My room was modest and up a couple flights of stairs but was comfortable and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was very nice. I would stay here again.
