Fobbed off with the wrong room

We had paid for an executive room and were given a standard room where the aircon didn’t work and hadn’t been cleaned properly. We were robbed off that it was the correct room until they found out we have stayed before many times over the last 38 years. We were then moved to the correct room.

Have stayed number of times and this is a hotel with a great location, friendly staff and free car parking in the hotel private car park. Breakfast is excellent and a good choice of drinks at the bar. Only issue is the stairs to the room having to carry luggage !

The Bull Hotel proved to be a great choice for a quick stopover in Peterborough (7 minute walk from the train station). It’s an older hotel but has lots of charm. I’d recommend it for a short stay. A surprisingly good price was an extra bonus !
