Find Historic Hotels in Downham Market

"The Lamb is a fine hotel in the heart of Ely. The staff were reliably helpful, polite, and skilled. The room was clean, comfortable and big enough for me and my wife. Breakfast was well done, we had the "Full English" a couple of times and "Continental" (Cereal, fruit, yogurt) other times. Coffee was good. The dinners were ample, prepared properly and served promptly. The beer variety was good and the bartenders helpful and quick. The location of the Lamb was perfect for me. The deservedly famous Ely Cathedral (includes a Stained Glass museum) was a block away and the Ely Museum was a block in the other directions. Many shops and places to eat were nearby. The town itself is quite charming. My only concern re: the Lamb was the bathtub/shower. The tub itself seems too narrow and slippery - it felt a little unsafe for this 'in-shape' 71 year old (I'm guessing the tub is an old one that's been "redone". A much smaller issue = the instructions on how to operate the shower were incomplete."

"steam room needs a clean as it smelt of drains"

"Really pleasant stay and location "

"This is a wonderful hotel. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is spotlessly clean. Our room is in need of redecorating after what looks like an old damp issue from a water leak outside the bathroom but didn’t cause us any issues. The hotel is in a very good location and we would recommend it to anyone. "

"Friendly and efficient "

"It was awesome! The food was great! We stayed in Room 29 (the haunted room) but no spirits were playing except for hiding the TV remote control which we found under the bed on the old fireplace step!!"

"A lovely relaxing 1 night stay here... A nice tonic before the hectic Xmas antics.. 😊"
