    Fairly clean hotel, lovely beds, delicious breakfasts and attentive staff. Nice enough area, central location near train station, the attractions such as Ely Cathedral and the cathedral. Easy check in and in general exceptional service. With warm reception.

    charming building
    friendly staff
    great breakfast

    The royal standard is a charming old building, beautifully updated while keeping unique touches like the old bread oven by the bar. It's conveniently located just a short walk from the cathedral, river, and shops. The full english breakfast was excellent, especially the homemade spicy black pudding. The staff were super friendly and immediately helped us with our bed arrangement.

    delicious breakfast
    busy road
    noise levels

    The room was cozy and comfortable, with a lovely old charm. The location was fantastic, just a short walk to local bars and restaurants. We enjoyed a relaxing bath and found the staff friendly. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful, and we appreciated the free parking provided.

    The road was quite busy, and the noise levels could be a bit much.

    comfortable mattress
    really good breakfast

    Couple getaway well done

    We had a cozy room with a lovely rainfall shower that was like pure luxury & the mattress was so comfy, I slept like a baby. The breakfast was really good, best full English I've ever had, it was quite the way to start the day.

    It wasn't exactly inexpensive but you know what, worth every penny I spent.

    really good breakfast
    comfortable bed
    nothing special

    We had a fantastic time! The unique walk-in shower was a game-changer, and the breakfast choice was astonishing-steak and eggs, anyone? I'd return just for that breakfast!

    very nice breakfast

    can't wait to come back

    The beautiful double room with bath was spacious and cozy. Had air conditioning, a shower, a hairdryer, and complimentary toiletries like shampoo and body soap. Breakfast was very nice, with options like fresh pastries and a hearty full English. Staff was super helpful, and free parking at the back made everything easy.

    poor parking info

    Breakfast was really good, loads of choices. The staff were friendly and helpful too, a big plus. Also the location was perfect for walking into the center of ely.

    The room was a bit noisy from the street and we found some dust on surfaces. The parking info could've been clearer from the start.
