Does iCloud store data after restoring iPhone and recovering data afterwards

I had a few glitches/ errors with my iPhone 4S, so I took it to the Genius Bar to see what they said. To cut a long story short, they said I should start restore my phone and start it from new as my previuos backup was corrupted. I know how to put all my music/apps/films but I was wondering how iCloud would work.
I have several apps which backup data to iCloud which I would need, can I just accsess all of that with after I restored my phone? What would be the best thing to do? Also, how does images work, I know I can backup them up on my computer and put them back on, but could I just accsess them from Photo Stream?
Or, what would be the best practise for getting back all my files and data on a newly restored phone?
Thanks in advance and sorry for a long post,

Hello.
If somehow your data has not been restored, you can go to Settings>general>reset>Reset all contents and settings. (WARNING- This will erase everything on your phone, so only do it if you take an iTunes backup beforehand atleast)
After this the iPhone will start the set-up wizard at the end of which you can choose to restore from iCloud backup.
Note that you will only get the complete cloud backup if you select restore from iCloud backup and not Set up as a new phone or Backup from iTunes.
Please keep in mind the restoring 3 GB of data will take a lot of time depending on your connection, and will not happen if the phone loses connection to your Network inbetween.
Good Day!
