Great staff and great food

So pleased we booked an overnight stay here. Every member of staff we met were friendly and helpful. Small room but it had everything that you would need including a safe, aircon (so welcome with the high temperatures), an iron, hairdryer and tea and coffee. The bathroom was great too. Good shower and there were fluffy towels and toiletries. There was an excellent choice at breakfast- a wide selection of cooked breakfasts. We had eggs royale and scrambled eggs, tomatoes and smoked salmon.All beautifully cooked and delicious. (You can enter the Royal Standard from the large public car park at the rear.)

wonderful place to stay. Close to cathedral with ac in room. They also have great food. The staff were helpful and kind.

Nice room with all modern facilities. Faced out the high street but there is virtually no traffic after 9pm or so, so not a problem. Excellent a/c in the room which was much appreciated because of the hot weather during our stay. Separate entry to the rooms so did not have to go thru bar. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment, only remark is that it only opens from 8am for breakfast which won’t suit anyone looking to get away early Recommended

Had wonderful time staff very helpful with everything we needed and such a lovely place to visit

Great location for exploring Ely. Near the Cathedral and local shops and eating places. Would definitely stay here again.

The Royal Standard has modern newly refurbished rooms over the pub. These are surprisingly quiet and comfortable. We had a friendly welcome and slept very well. Good bathroom and comfortable bed and a really tasty breakfast to follow. We would definitely stay here again, particularly given the very convenient car park at the back.

The room was clean ans staff were great. The breakfast was excellent with top quality produce. The bar was well stocked with a wide veriety of drinks available.

Lovely historic pub. Breakfast delicious, cooked to order. Very clean, recently refurbished.

Great rooms, small but very clean, aesthetically pleasing and well thought through. Good location in Ely.

We only had a one night stay while we took in a show in Ely. The staff were really happy and helpful. A small boutique establishment but steeped in history. Although there was maintenance work going on it didn't detract from a lovely experience, the whole building was still immaculately clean. Room was beautiful, I believe that all the rooms are individually styled and ours certainly had a little wow factor. It's also a great location to explore the beautiful city and all it has to offer. The food and beverages were top draw too. All in all a fabulous little pub/restaurant/hotel. The building is hundreds of years old but the facilities are 2026. The Royal Standard is a little gem and we'll happily stay there in the future.

The breakfast is cooked to order and excellent. Room lovely - in need of tarting up in places but very clean which is the main thing. Most of the staff were great. Just one female staff member was a bit rude to my partner about letting him through to the accommodation when the key was with me. Only one key per room so hardy our fault. All the other staff were excellent - helpful polite and friendly. Very central location for town, cathedral and short walk to the river. Overall a lovely stay and would recommend.

Hyggelig opphold. God service og fint rom

Great staff, very helpful. We were in room 1 which is a clean modern room. You do hear a little traffic noise but not enough that it's an issue. Just watch you don't rest a bare knee on the heated towel rail when you're sat on the toilet!

Nice but lots of noise from the road.

Friendly staff, comfortable bed, clean, spacious shower

Lovely comfortable and central property with excellent hot fresh breakfast and friendly staff. Not suitable for light sleepers as rooms have casement lead windows and no double glazing.

Good location

Friendly greeting from the staff, an exceptional room soundproofed so you'd have no idea there was a bar below. Exceptionally presented rooms with handy toiletries and a very decent breakfast. We were very impressed and will book again on our next visit

Great central location. Easy walk to the cathedral and sites, shopping, eating. Super helpful staff. Nice recently remodeled bathroom.
