The Bull is in a great location for Peterborough city centre. Close to shops, restaurants and the cathedral. The staff were friendly and professional. The bar was nice, a good selection of drinks. They were kind enough to make us sandwiches well after midnight. Unfortunately the rooms are quite tired, looking quite grubby. The car park was also partially flooded.

The room was very clean. There wasnt a lock on the bathroom door which didn't bother us but might not be the same for someone else staying in our room. The staff were amazing as always. This is our third time staying here and every time we've had a lovely stay, lovely food and always felt so welcoming

The exterior and foyer of the hotel look great. The rooms are ok, but virtually no soundproofing. Window wouldn’t shut properly. There was a large military party in the hotel. My corridor only had 8 rooms, I was the only room not part of the military group. I was woken up at 4:30am by drunk men shouting outside my door. This went on for half an hour. I told reception in the morning. They didn’t seem to care. As a woman travelling on my own, having a large group of drunk men shouting in the corridor outside my room was very unsettling. I’m not sure why they allocated me a room with that lot.

My stay ay the Bull

I had a little trouble finding the car park but the receptionist was brilliant in helping me out and giving me a pre-printed map and an accurate post code for my SatNav. Check-in was seamless. Food was excellent. Wonderful ambience in the bar. Comfy room.

Comfortable and central.

Central city location, just a short stroll to the New Theatre, and Lido. Comfortable (though dated) bedrooms. Welcoming communual bar and lounge facilities. Free on site parking was a bonus. We booked two double rooms for two nights. Staff were very pleasant and accommodating, and by prior arrangement, allocated us adjacent rooms.

Nightmare to find the place!!!

The place itself is terrible to find. The post code on the site is wrong, the hotel said they were having it corrected, I was at the hotel 5 months ago and they had the same incorrect post code back then so it took me a long time to find it. I had give the hotel a call twice for directions so they obviously haven’t had it corrected. It’s fuel and customer tome that’s being wasted. As a result, we were late to our evening event.
