    Ely, with its majestic cathedral dominating the skyline, is a city steeped in history and charm. But just a short distance from its heart lies a true gem, a testament to refined elegance and impeccable hospitality: The Old Hall. Diane and I on our recent visit to this stunning Cambridgeshire venue left us utterly enchanted, and we're already planning our return. From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of calm sophistication. The decor throughout The Old Hall is simply exquisite. Each room is thoughtfully designed, blending historical character with modern comfort and a touch of luxurious indulgence. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the carefully chosen artwork adorning the walls to the plush, welcoming furniture that beckons you to relax and unwind. But what truly elevates The Old Hall from merely beautiful to truly exceptional is the exceptional professionalism and warmth of the staff. Every interaction was a pleasure, met with genuine smiles and a dedication to ensuring our every need was met. They were attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the history of the Hall and the local area, and happy to offer recommendations and suggestions. It's clear that the team takes pride in their work and are dedicated to creating a memorable experience for every guest. And let's not forget the food and drinks! The culinary experience at The Old Hall is as delightful as the surroundings. From perfectly crafted cocktails to elegant dishes that tantalize the taste buds, every bite was a revelation. The menu showcased fresh, seasonal ingredients, prepared with skill and artistry. The presentation was impeccable, adding another layer of enjoyment to the already delicious offerings. Whether you're indulging in a leisurely afternoon tea, a celebratory dinner, or a simple glass of wine in the elegant bar, you're in for a treat. In short, The Old Hall in Ely is a top-class establishment in every sense of the word. It's a place where history meets modern luxury, where exceptional service is the norm, and where exquisite food and drink are served in breathtakingly beautiful surroundings. If you're looking for a truly special experience, a place to escape the everyday and create lasting memories, then look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend The Old Hall and can't wait to return and experience its magic once again.

    Wow, beautiful place. We were completely blown away by this amazing venue. The food was great, staff were incredibly professional and helpful. We also couldn’t believe how clean it was, for an old venue it was spotless. Loved the room and just wish we had more time to explore. 10/10.

    We love staying at The Old Hall Ely. As we leave we book our next visit. It is a wonderful place, with wonderful staff. It feels like going to visit friends. We have never stayed anywhere like it before! Beautiful house and rooms. Very comfy beds, and beautiful grounds where you can sit and read or bird watch or just chill. Beautifully presented meals with top quality ingredients. A place where you find peace. Just wonderful
