The room was beautifully presented. I booked a single room for one night. Very comfortable single bed, and plenty of coffee and tea including a Nespresso machine. A lovely breakfast and a perfect location.

Be aware, that if you book a single room your private bathroom is not in the room, but across the corridor. I don’t think that was made clear when booking. It’s a private bathroom, and very lovely, and they do give you a fluffy bathrobe, so you don’t have to walk from the bathroom to your room in a towel after your shower, but for me that was a negative.

The room was clean and comfortable and the house itself is situated right on the river bank giving excellent views of the river. The breakfast was excellent with cooked food, croissants, toast and all the trimmings available. The only complaint is that the television control did not work the television but that wasn't really a problem as the television had controls located on the television itself. Unfortunately Ely itself didn't have much to offer as far as tourist attractions are concerned (apart from the Cathedral and Oliver Cromwell's House) but walks along the river were enjoyable. Eating places tended to be along the riverside but quite expensive. The town closed down at night leaving just a few restaurants and pubs where one could find food.

See my comments above

For the first time ever, we booked the room that featured in the publicity and all I can say is that it was superb. The room and bathroom were larger than usual and the view looking up the river was truly splendid. Within the room, the furnishing were lovely and in excellent condition and the bathroom had a range of good toiletries rather than the bulk buy type which are becoming more common. There were teas, coffees etc, biscuits and two bottles of water. The shower was powerful, hot water plentiful. Breakfast was basically continental but with grilled sausages, bacon, tomatoes and scrambled egg also available. Individual bowls of FRESH fruit salad, a couple of types of cereal and GF cornflakes, croissants, toast. Jam, marmalade, cheeses.

About the only thing that I would say would be that a grab rail on the wall in the shower would be nice. Those of us getting a bit wobbly on our legs might find it handy.

Excellent location by the river with a restaurant and pub on either side. Décor in room was very nice; all good condition etc. Room comfortable, nice bathroom, all modern facilities. Good breakfast and this is the only time you meet any staff.

Car parking is quoted as free but this is just public on the street parking. All parking in Ely appears to be free so not really a feature worth mentioning. The spaces were full most of our stay. You really have to pay for the reserved spaces in the car park - should either say parking available at extra charge or this should just be included in the price.

Amazing location on the riverside and not too far from the town. Lovely big room with views over the river. Superb luxury bathroom with under floor heating and I would love to know what laundry products were used on the towels and sheets. They smelled gorgeous. Entry to the Inn is by code to unlock the front door so no staff around except for breakfast. The breakfast room was very clean with a choice of cereals yoghurts pastries and sausage scrambled eggs streaky bacon and tomatoes and fresh fruit salad.

The room had to be vacated by 10am. Breakfast was cleared away by 9.30am. Would have liked more milk pots as only 5 were provided which was a bit unfair for 2 people.

Room 3 was lovely spacious very cosy - room was warm - bed was comfy - pillows great - tea & coffee facilities good - toiletries good - great shower We only stayed overnight The location for us was great - 10 minutes to start of high street - 15 minutes to cathedral Breakfast was ok - we did read reviews and we agree the sausages were anaemic but adequate breakfast It would be nice if you could check in earlier and check out a bit later - most hotels/guest houses we have stayed in are check in 2pm check out 11am

The check in check out times

Breakfast was exactly right; the location was outstanding (easy walk to Cathedral and city centre; sited next to two first-class restaurants). Excellent view of the Great Ouse from the window.

The excellent private bathroom was on the other side of the landing, so the dressing gown as supplied was essential; the bedroom was well furnished but so tiny that it was only useful as a bedroom or watching TV; not for working at the computer. Nonetheless, the proprietors had done a very fine conversion job.

It was my second time at Riverside Inn, and obviously, there is a positive reason I chose it again. It's a clean and orderly place, with a very English atmosphere, on the banks of the river. This time I was given the tiny room with the external bathroom on the first floor. It's not bad at all, only one has to sneak their way to the bathroom, trying not to bump into the other guests, especially in the morning. However, my whole experience was very positive, and I'd choose to stay at Riverside Inn even a third time. Thanks a lot!

Pretty building with easy access into Ely on foot with lovely views of the river and parkland. Breakfast was great and that part of the hotel was clearly decorated more recently than our bedroom, which was a bit dated, but a good size.

Parking was a little difficult in that area as the available spaces were very popular with river users. The nearby pub let us use their car park until a space outside the Inn became available.

The location and facilities were excellent, and I would highly recommend this accommodation to a single occupancy, a couple, or a family. Eating facilities in terms of dinner on arrival were just across the road in a well-appointed pub and again highly recommended. I travel a lot on business and this really met my needs and I will certainly book next year when I visit my client again or any other client in the area. Just realise that the £95 rate included breakfast, and all in all, it was far more competitively priced and better value for money than the Premier Inn, etc. in Newmarket at £130 + £9.99 for breakfast. Breakfast was excellent and freshly cooked, and tea's and a choice of coffee's and fruit juices. Shame to have to leave, but I'm looking forward to my return.

What was there not to like!
