Riverside Inn

This is a lovely guest house. Delightful rooms,very clean,beautiful bathroom. We paid a bit extra for a river view. Plenty of choice at breakfast. A truly magical place,right on the river. With parking to be arranged and paid for in advance Thank you for a lovely stay.

The hotel itself is lovely. Really nice rooms, comfy beds and pillows, great shower over the bath. Tea and coffee in the room. Small but good breakfast choice. Great location for the cathedral and shops and restaurants, situated right on the river The reason I've marked it down for service is that there was a bit of an altercation with the lady who was probably the manager. It was all done via the ring doorbell and whilst my husband wasn't aware there was a pin code for the door as I hadn't told him, he got out of the car to ask about parking as there were no spaces available outside and it wasn't really clear where we could park. Had the lady just advised us that there was free parking in Ship Lane, a 2 minute drive away, then we wouldn't have got into the argument with her as she insisted on reading out details of the messages she had sent me prior to arrival but I was already aware of these details, I just wanted to know where the alternative parking was. So instead of talking to me through the door bell and telling me to go into the hallway and look at the map to see where alternative parking was available, she could have explained it clearly and saved us all an argument and then she wouldn't have had to message me to tell me we had spoken to her using strong and inappropriate language towards her ( which we didn't, we were speaking among ourselves but she was still listening via the doorbell) and telling us to make sure we didn't speak to the breakfast staff in such a manner or she would be forced to stop serving us. So - apart from that, we had a pleasant stay, it's a lovely hotel but beware of upsetting Lily!!

Great location, within walking distance to Ely cathedral. Breakfast was great, cooked breakfast and a good choice of cereal, bread, pastries and fresh fruit. Bedroom was spacious, and we had a lovely view. Bathroom was lovely and the towels were lush! Staff were friendly.

What a beautiful place to stay.... soooo clean & every detail catered for. Luxury bathroom complete with underfloor heating! We paid the extra to have a riverside view, worth every penny! Only negatives where NO ITV Sat 10/2 in the afternoon. Buffet breakfast, although plentiful, was tepid at 8.20am. More instruction needed re toasting machine. BUT overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, would definitely recommend & hope to return.

Excellent in every way! Located in a quiet area on the bank of the river looking out onto the marina on the opposite bank. Lovely pubs and restaurants nearby and people strolling about leisurely. The accommodation is exquisite. The ambiance of the place is very relaxing. Interior decor is gorgeous, and the rooms superbly appointed and convenient. The double bed was extremely comfortable. The breakfast room is light and has a wonderfully atmosphere and the food offered would suit most tastes. Simply wonderful and fantastic value for money. I couldn’t fault it.

I highly recommend the Riverside Inn. We were so satisfied and happily surprised when we arrived. It’s located very near to the canal, for an easy walk through the city and neighboring fields. The rooms are abeautifully appointed,, and it’s located on a very quiet street. The beds are marvelous and the linens and thick towels are pure cotton. It was a luxurious sleep! They offer a lovely breakfast including fresh cappuccinos and lattes. That was another unexpected delight! The owners have sophisticated and attractive taste. We loved our stay here.

Well, this guest house is a gem. It would be difficult to find fault with this beautifully positioned and spotlessly clean Inn. Our room, which looked out to the river, was a good size with a fantastic underfloor heated en-suit bathroom. Every thing supplied from bottled water and coffee machine to flannels and hair products. Excellent quality breakfast in a beautifully light conservatory. It made a 2 night stop over very special.

We had a well appointed but small room at the back of the Inn. No view but also very little noise. As the inn is on a busy waterfront, rooms with views are probably noisy. The location is lovely and nothing is vary far in Ely. Breakfast was decent, should satisfy most, and though there is no reception, staff are always available, a phone call away.

Very nice place with friendly staff. The location is great right at the waterfront and the breakfast is excellent.

Room was spacious with a lovely view of the river & a table & chairs to watch the world go past. Bed & pillows were very comfortable. Underfloor heating in bathroom, large fluffy towels, nice toiletries. Bright airy breakfast room. Buffet style breakfast, though as a vegetarian, the only cooked choice was scrambled egg & tomatoes. I opted for the continental breakfast & and it would have been nice to have warm bread rolls & croissants (I'm not sure if the toaster would warm or burn them). Close to station & Cathedral. Enjoyed my stay & would return, though just a shame about vegetarian breakfast (though I appreciate catering for everyone would cause some waste).
