This hotel is in a great location with parking nearby Soon after arrival some workman had started to put up scaffolding outside my window! I could hear every word and every clang! I asked the front desk how long the scaffolders would be, she was curt with her response so no chance of a nap, off I went out again! The room was small but cosy, once I removed numerous cobwebs from the ceiling! Very noisy until late and then also in the morning, lots of chat from other guests on the way to their rooms Shower was only lukewarm However, breakfast was very good I did not feel rested after my stay, which was a shame as that was what I needed

Great Stay and Would Definitely Stay Again
The staff were very helpful, the food was excellent, and the room was very comfortable and fully modernised. Moreover, the room was extremely quiet considering it was at the very front of the hotel over-looking the main street. We stayed 6 nights and did not have any problems at all with noise from either inside or outside the hotel - even though we were quite close to the Main Ballroom and several evening events took place there during our stay. We would definitely stay again. The room did have a couple of maintenance points we would mention. The shaver point in the bathroom needed replacing because the internal connections on the 240v socket are no longer capable of holding in a modern (heavier) shaver plug which has its rectifier built-into the plug (instead of it being inside the shaver itself as they were in the past). Also, a knob was missing from the bottom drawer of the left hand bedside table which could easily be replaced even though it may not match the original. Without a knob the bottom drawer could not be used. Apart from those points though, the room was great.

The hotel car park is small, down small roads and hard to find without the name of the road to put into the GPS. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and the hotel/bar area/restaurant was extremely busy. We couldn’t find anywhere to sit so we went outside for a wander. The hotel is right on the Main Street and within walking distance of several pubs. After a drink and wander we arrived about an hour early at the hotel and they were very accommodating with an early check in, which was very much appreciated. The hotel room was extremely small, just enough room to walk around the bed, a tv and desk although the bathroom was actually a good size and big in comparison. The windows are wooden pull up/down windows and the wood was wearing. The room and bathroom were very clean although the shower seal was mouldy in places and in need of replacement. The shower was double size, so very nice and spacious and warm although i did notice the pressure the following morning wasn’t the best. The hotel was extremely noisy at night until almost 11pm when it finally quietened down. I must admit we were concerned about how noisy it was, banging of doors, people shouting and some other very random and loud noises. But it did go quiet about 11pm and stayed quiet until the extremely noisy seagulls in the morning! The breakfast was impressive, freshly cooked, with flexible options very enjoyable. They had a small buffet of pastries, jams etc as well which was very nice.

Quiet. Bed and Lenin was clean. Washroom and towels were clean. Parking direction should be provided in email after reservation confirmation. Difficultly finding a parking is very limited on the street in order to stop and inquire.

Perfect family mini-break
Spent a lovely 3 night stay here as a family. We took one the family rooms, which was great as our 4 yr old had their own room and bathroom, plus a door between his and our rooms once he was down! Main room had very comfy king size bed and en-suite. Hotel itself is very cosy with a couple of log fires going. We enjoyed our x3 breakfasts and a dinner one evening. All the staff were very friendly and attentive, it really was a treat to stay here. We used Bridport as a base to visit Lyme Regis, West Bay, Swanage and the general surrounding area. Thoroughly recommend The Bull Hotel!
