This pub and hotel is a former 14th Century coaching inn. Now it hosts 31 guest rooms and a full service pub that is very popular with the locals. On the night we tried it, an unusual and atypical bar brawl was erupting just as we entered; a surly, obviously overindulged patron was having very loud words with the barmaid... More

Really good location.safe parking, good food. Reasonably priced for what we got-top floor with no view- but it was clean. Bathroom could do with a revamp but thats the only critisism. Friendly efficient staff.

A good central location. All the staff bar one (having a bad day? ) were friendly and helpful. A good sized room with a very comfortable bed and crisp clean bedding, but shabby furniture and a poor view. Plenty of hot water, but v limited toiletries. Blocks need to be provided so the windows stay open. Good choice of breakfast,... More

The hotel is in a good central position. The bedroom and particularly the bathroom was in need of refurbishment. Parking was limited. The bar and lounge area was nicely decorated and we had a very nice meal there in the evening with excellent service. It was totally different at breakfast. Salmon and scrambled eggs looked like it had been prepared... More

I booked and stayed in this hotel during early May. I arrived early afternoon and although parking was advertised it was full throughout my stay. However, staff were helpful in getting me parked. The room was comfortable, clean and good value for money. I ate in the bar and the food was good and staff friendly. A all round experience!

Very limited supply of soap& toiletries.Ate downstairs one evening but only an average meal.Mine was overcooked, dry and there was not much of it. Breakfast good with lots of choices but service...

Popped in after Ely Cathedral. Reminded me of a Wetherspoons. Menu pretty dull for veggies. Had a massive veggie burger which was fine, no frills. Carpet needed a good vaccum and all of the cutlery and my cup were not the cleanest. Partners jacket was the worst he'd ever had. Saw no staff over the age of about 25 (at... More

Thanks for the time taken to review the Lamb. We are open for food and drink from 7am until 11pm serving continuously through this time period. We do try to keep things clean and tidy but it appears that we hadn't done so at the time of your visit and we'd like to offer our apologies to you. More

Good hotel with well stocked bar and good selection of food in the evening although I ate elsewhere. Rooms are spacious and comfortable with adequate facilities although if you are on the top floor, the lift would be advisable (I dont know if there is one) as the stairs are a good climb. Breakfast was good, cooked freshly to order... More
