Lovely stay at the Bull Hotel, Bridport
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 27 Jun 2017
A pleasant surprise to find this lovely pub/hotel which has obviously undergone refurbishment quite recently to provide a lovely, boutique-style hotel in the heart of Bridport. The accommodation is nicely decorated and has lovely touches like Clipper teabags and a huge bathroom with freestanding bath and walk-in shower. The food at both dinner and breakfast was very good - I would highly recommend it.

Central, atmospheric, brimming with character. This place has friendly welcoming staff, a real comfortable & chic feel to all areas and great food too. Lovely touches in the rooms and a beautiful courtyard to relax in after a busy days sightseeing.

We stayed for 3 nights last week on a planned short break to Dorset and were very happy with the hotel. The breakfast was good and some of the evening meals likewise. There is a very pretty courtyard area to the rear of the hotel with tables, flowers and lights in the evening where you can eat if preferred. The staff were very friendly and helpful and our room was excellent although a little noisy as it was on the first floor in the front facing the street. It was unusually hot weather so we had to open the window because there was no air conditioning or a fan. It could have been improved with a small fridge, a fan and some voile curtains to give some privacy during daylight hours. However the room was very comfortable with a queen sized bed and nice bathroom.
Bridport is an excellent location to the surrounding area and the best beach was at Burton Bradstock about 5 miles away with a National Trust car park and the Hive Café.

Thank you Vanessa for taking the time to write a review, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay at The Bull. We take on board your feedback about the heat in our rooms and have ordered some high powered Dyson fans for them, as the hotter weather looks to continue. We hope to see you again on your next trip to Dorset.

The location is excellent for visiting the Jurassic coast. The hotel is very friendly with helpful staff and the rooms are very clean and the decor is fab. We had drinks in the garden followed by a top quality dinner and wine. This is a real hidden gem and we defiantly be coming back again soon.

Came for a weekend with a couple of friends. The bedrooms are all individually designed, and stylishly so. A nice courtyard in the hotel good for coffee or lunch. The breakfasts were very good (perfectly cooked poached eggs). The bread is home made in the kitchen, as are cakes, jams and other baked goods. Very friendly and accommodating service.

We had a lovely 2 night stay in Bridport at The Bull hotel. We were given a room in the Old Stables which was very nice... but seemed very expensive for what it was at £220 per night. We stayed on a very hot June weekend and the lack of air con was problematic and stopped us going back to the hotel during the day for chillout time as it was just too warm. Underneath us was a family room - the children were well-behaved but on a couples break we felt that the little courtyard area was taken over somewhat and there was some noise. The courtyard with fairy lights is lovely - you can get restaurant food or cocktails in the bar and The Stables pizzeria was in the same small courtyard. The courtyard closed at 10pm so little noise from the restaurants but there was noise from the small hotel car park and a (restaurant?) vent. The linen was average and the bed wasn't very comfortable - a bit disappointing! Breakfast is nice - freshly baked bread and croissants... all cooked breakfasts made to order which makes such a difference. Recommend Dorshi next door for Asian inspired cuisine but book as it's small! And Gelateria Beppino is worth a visit too! We wanted to love this hotel as it was a much needed break! ...And we went for a Mr and Mrs Smith (first experience) recommended one but came away feeling a bit like we couldn't really recommend it to friends for the price....

Thank you Alexandra_on_holiday for you review and feedback. As we are a listed building we are unable to install air conditioning. The good news is that we are currently awaiting a delayed delivery of high tech cooler fans to be installed in each room so please be assured that this is being addressed. I also appreciate your feedback regarding rates and just want to mention that these are in accordance with industry rates and demand in this area however I do fully appreciate your commments. Our rates are lower in the quieter season aswell as that fact we won't be in a heat wave and I therefore hope you would consider returning as we would love to see you again.
