Looking for some travel accommodation. Any recommendations would be much appreciated. I really don't want to have to stay at a hostel.
Based on your previous posts about attending your first concert is CA, I'm going to assume that you're from North America (please correct me if I am wrong here) and are travelling a great distance to the UK to attend the concert. Given this, you probably have the means to stay at a relatively moderate accommodation. If that is the case you will most certainly opt for a room that is "en suite" - that's the non-American term for a room with it's own bathroom. You should probably look for this term or the term "private bathroom" as you have commented that you do not want to stay at a hostel which would undoubtedly have shared facilities.
Since you have not stated how long you are staying, what your other travel plans are, or any hints as to your budget I will limit my response to two locations: (1) London and (2) Ely and will stick to a middle of the road budget.
London
As you will be travelling from somewhere in North America you will more than likely pass through London. There are many little hotels available around St Pancras Station in London, many of them are en suite. The reason I recommend staying near St Pancras is that it gives you a central location in London from which you can see the city itself easily, and walking distance to the train that will take you directly to Ely. If you are a first time traveller to the UK this would alleviate any trepidation you may have about accessing transit.
Others here who are more familiar with London than I am may give you far better advice, but I am just giving you what would seem easiest to me if I were travelling there.
To find a suitable hotel at the price point you want in London I would suggest using
Hotels.com entering in your city as "London" and the nights that you would want to stay. Then sort the hotels by distance to St Pancras.
If this is all too much then my suggestion would be the
Alhambra Hotel. It was the one I would have likely stayed at had my plans to go to this Ely concert materialized. At about $130 (US dollars) per night for a single room with a private bathroom it's extremely reasonable when you consider the central location in London and that a full breakfast is included. There are other options but you may have to research them yourself. If you have the means to afford a better accommodation then the sky is the limit in downtown London, but to me that is a fair mix of price and location for my own budget.
Ely
From my research, and other fans will affirm this, Ely is a tiny town that is exceedingly walkable. However, the accommodation choices are extremely limited, and so you must make haste in reserving an accommodation in Ely as soon as possible. Alternatively, you could travel back to London by train the night of the concert. For reference, the train journey is about 1.5 hours each way.
I suggest you do the same search on Hotels.com as with London, but there are only about 4 hotels in Ely itself (Lamb Hotel, Ely Guest House, Poets House, and The Nyton). Poet's House is well over $200/night so you may wish to avoid that unless you have the means. The rest are low to moderately priced, but to me the best value for your money seems to be
The Nyton which has a variety of rooms on offer but has a room for about $100/night en suite.
Others, particular those who have traveled to Ely, may have far better suggestions than I do, but given that I was just about to pull the trigger on this trip and had already done all of the research, perhaps you can find this helpful. It's too bad I will not be joining you in Ely but now that we know you are going, you will owe us a concert review.
