Excellent welcoming staff and great rooms and food

How do you expect business people to use your facility ,have breakfast after 7.30 and still get into Reading at a sensible time? The stairs are dangerous point blank Adding padding to low ceiling beams whilst helpful doesn’t stop you hitting your head despite no signs anywhere. The hallways are impossible to move suitcases through them.The parking is cramped and difficult to reverse out off. Oh and locking doors is never a good fire precaution for people with impairments. Safe to say never again

Very friendly staff, beautiful food, good value, a huge, comfortable bed. Beautiful setting, lovely beer and wine. The room was really quirky and well decorated and the ensuite was too. Nothing not to like.

This is a fantastic place to stay on The Thames. Beautiful rooms, great pub and a fantastic bartender Ray. Breakfast included and it was delicious. Highly recommend

Everything was fine would definitely stay there again.

If you are looking for a historic pub to stay in this is the place. Built in the 1500’s yet clean and modern inside. Food was wonderful and staff was very helpful.

Best hotel I’ve had and the staff couldn’t do enough for you. Perfect location for exploring the area

What a delightful stay in this ancient inn. All the staff we encountered were friendly & helpful and seemed genuinely pleased to look after us. Our bedroom was bijou but very well thought out with switches in the right place and plenty of sockets. A free welcome drink at bar was greatly appreciated. Dinner was tasty and breakfast was great, freshly cooked to order. We would most definitely stay here again, although I imagine it might be quite noisy on a summer’s evening.

Breakfast was fresh and good.

Great room, spotless clean and very helpful staff - thank you!

Fantastic pub and hotel, recently renovated, great restaurant

Yes, very nice room and friendly staff

Staff were great, room was comfortable, good food

A wonderful welcome and our room was lovely. The dining area was busy with both residents and local people. The menu offered a good variety and food arrived very hot and well presented. We wouldn’t hesitate to return but would advise that the age of the building means that stairs are very steep and the floors are uneven.

We had a lovely stay at The Bull. The history of the building and the quirky slopes and design features all added to the charm. The beds were super comfortable and the room very clean and well decorated. only downside was the limited parking which we knew about and the noise from people in the pub below, but you would expect this staying above a pub:)

All great

Wonderful stay, great staff, amazing food and setting.

Perfect welcome, first free drink at the bar, open fire, what more could you ask for. Room spotless and very friendly

The room was smallish but had everything we could need. The staff were excellent both friendly and helpful. Breakfast was ok.

Our room was lovely and clean, complimentary toiletries, and a good choice of coffee. We didn’t use the bar because we went out somewhere else, but we will go back to try their daytime dining. Breakfast had a wide selection. The stairs were steep, but we had been warned, the fire escape stairwell was easier to use in the evening when the pub was closed.
