We stayed here for one night for valentines, the hotel was quite busy but the service was very good. We stayed in an executive room which was big enough for what we needed. We found the check in very easy and Laurie was polite and professional. We had afternoon tea in the bar lounge area which was very good as... More

The Bull hotel has a good hotel and other reviews have given clear adequately explained the various amenities; my perspective on the service was mixed - mainly because check in was rather cold and un-effecient (the usual; answer a phone, ignore a human being right in front of you...). Outside of check in the service was great in other areas;... More

The Bull Hotel is ideally located in the city centre of Peterborough, within walking distance from the cathedral, restaurants, drinks, and stores. Parking is free, but only accessed from the east. (Entry at corner of Broadway & Fitzwillam) Rooms are nicely appointed, generally clean (carpet could have vaccuumed at bit better) with the en-suite bathroom at a very high standard.... More

Dear Pigfarm9, I am glad that you enjoyed your return trip to us. You're right, the Gold Bar promotion is exceptional value for money, and includes a three course dinner taken from our Prix Fixe menu. It is customary on these offers to pay the supplement when choosing from the full menu. Nevertheless, I am so glad that you enjoyed... More

Stayed here for business for a few nights. It was ok. The lobby/foyer is the best bit, all fancy and ornate, but dont let that fool you! The rooms are pretty pants to be honest. Mine reminded me of that travelodge that Alan Partridge stays in. Shabby, worn out, wallpaper peeling - and I had to retune the TV myself.... More

Fickle_barista, I am not sure what to make of your review, and the words Meh, and Bleugh do not feature in my vocabulary. Your comments do not sound like, or resemble the hotel that I have been proud to be associated with for over ten years. Nor are they representative of the majority of the comments posted on this site.... More

The staff at this hotel really need a lesson in customer service. Apart from the barman, the rest couldn't have cared less. In particular, one lady who checked me in (eventually) on Wednesday 18th Jan in the evening. After waiting nearly 10 minutes whilst she took numerous phone calls and left the reception desk, I was finally checked in. Her... More
