Fantastic
I used to stay at the Bull a lot on business. It was so pleasing to see that it is still as good as ever. Our room was so comfy, well appointed and in superb condition. The breakfast was really good too. The car park is free for staying guests too. I can't leave out the hotel staff who were all very helpful.

The Bull Hotel was a great stay. The room was compact and beds good. The ensuite was excellent with plenty of room. Bar area was amazing and good food served most of the day. So one could eat if arrived late. The decor was really done well

Generally great
On the whole it is a lovely hotel and room but not eco friendly. Old single glazed draughty window in the room which leaked heat. Other than that the hotel, room and position are great.

Don’t recommend
When I arrived to the hotel to checkin the male receptionist was clearly having a bad day, did not provide me any information about my stay. I had to ask for basic information like where was the lift (that does not exists) and the direction to my room. For my surprise my key card also didn’t work and I had to go down and ask for a new card, again the same receptionist didn’t apologize for the inconvenience and again very dry. The corridors had a strong smell of fresh paint and my room had a very strong smell, I am not sure where it came from, maybe it was the old carpet or something else but was definitely unpleasant. I had to take a pill for allergies as my skin started to flare up .

The hotel is lovely and the staff helpful. I asked for a room change because I like to look out onto the street, which they kindly did.
It is in the heart of town but that does mean its not the nicest of areas to walk around at night. Pubs and clubs are right there, so great if you're planning on going out out :)

The staff was excellent, especially the Assistant Manager. To properly identify her, she is from Sicily. The morning restaurant staff were outstanding. Very accommodating!
