The Bull is centrally located in Bridport with all the towns facilities within easy walking distance. The hotel itsrlf was very welcoming and the staff efficient and helpful. Our room was clean and well appointed. We stayed on a bed and breakfast tariff and breakfast was plentiful and of good quality. We took advantage of the guest car park which was safe and easily reached through the hotel. Would stay again if in the local area.
The room was amazing!! We had a great time exploring around the town. The parking was a little tricky but being there on a weekend meant we were able to use the additional parking from the business next door.
The Bull Hotel is a great option for Bridgnorth town centre if you can afford it. Our room was very nice and comfortable with very good facilities. The bar and restaurant downstairs are of good quality and the staff are really friendly. Breakfast is a high standard with plenty of choice on the menu. You can park for free as well. A good choice.
A excellent stay at Bridport , on arrival we were greeted by Emily who was friendly, helpful and efficient.
Lunch and dinner were both very good, again Emily was our dinner server and made the experience very enjoyable.
Our room was warm and comfortable although we found the pillows to be a bit hard , this of course is a personal thing.
Breakfast was very good and the servers were again polite and helpful.
Your staff are a credit to the hotel, an enjoyable stay and hopefully not our last.
Parking at the rear of the hotel was a bonus.
Lovely, clean hotel. Decent sized mugs for a cuppa in the room. Fantastic shower. Gorgeous breakfast. Quick and easy book in and out. Will definitely return if I'm next in the area.
Booked for a short break. Comfortable, well supplied bedroom, excellent restaurant with good food and service. Unexpectedly great breakfast menu. Highly recommended.
