Top Ely Hotel Reviews

Hilton Cardiff

Hilton Cardiff

8/10 Good
"Reception staff were lovely and welcoming. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was gorgeous. However the spa area was dreadful, gym was small changing rooms were awful, run down and grubby. No private changing facilities. Tiles were mouldy the toilets smelt very bad. In the pool area the whole area was grubby bits of tiles missing and covered with masking tape. The tiles around the hot tub were mouldy, window sills were rotting and flaking away. Not what I expected from a luxury chain like the Hilton. Very disappointing. I would return to the hotel but would avoid the spa and pool area."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Ely?
The best time to visit Ely is typically during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn (May to September), when the weather is generally pleasant for exploring.

May and June offer milder temperatures and longer daylight hours, making it ideal for enjoying outdoor activities like boat trips on the River Great Ouse or exploring the Cathedral grounds. You'll also find the gardens in full bloom, adding to the city's beauty.

July and August are the warmest months, superb for those who enjoy sunny weather. This period often sees various local events and festivals, providing more entertainment options. However, it can also be the busiest time, so booking accommodation and popular attractions in advance is advisable.

September brings cooler, crisp air and often beautiful autumn colours, particularly appealing for walking or cycling around the Fens.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Ely hotel for you.
How much is the nightly rate at a Ely hotel?
Hotel prices in Ely often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
