I was disappointed with the Bull and the Hide. Whilst booking the room via e
Expedia I only booked one night instead of two, it was my mistake. However, when I tried to contact the Bull and the Hide via their wesite to remedy my mistake and I heard nothing back. I contacted Expedia hoping to extend my stay to two nights and, while I was on line with the Expedia agent, they tried to contact the Bull and the Hide but nobody answered.

By the time Expedia got back to me (over 24 hours had passed) and a second night was not available. The Bull and the Hide would not allow me to cancel the original reservation, which was made on June 9, 2026 for a June 21, 2026 stay. This was almost two weeks in advance of my I intended to stay.

Like I said it was my mistake on the original booking but given the circumstances I feel the Bull and the Hide could have been a little more forgiving.

This is a great little hotel room in a central location. Easily accessed on the Elizabeth line from Heathrow.
The rooms are well looked after, beautifully presented and lots of nice little touches.
The only down side is the street noise (to be expected in central London but bring earplugs!)

Had a great stay at The Bull. The room was clean, comfortable bed and well presented, with thoughtful amenities provided including a dental kit, which came in surprisingly handy!

The only thing to be aware of is that if you're allocated a room at the top of the stairs, it's quite a climb, especially with luggage. Not a complaint, just something worth noting.

Overall, a lovely stay with great attention to detail and guest comfort.

We chose this property because it was convenient to Liverpool St., Station. It’s a straight shot from Heathrow on the Elizabeth line and we had to get to Stansted two days later, so this spot was perfect. For that convenience and for the price, I really cannot complain. We had the Devonshire suite which was spacious with a nice big bathroom and a lovely tub. The bed was comfortable and the bedding, clean and stylish there were a few scuffs on the walls and marks on the carpet from people‘s luggage, but overall the place was clean. The bigger problem was the lack of service the pub/reception desk saw us checked in by a young woman who really didn’t have much to say and when we asked her about why the TV and Wi-Fi didn’t work the answer was pretty much too bad. It didn’t sound like there. Was anyone on hand to come and fix the problems. But for a short stay, it wasn’t a dealbreaker. There’s a fair bit of noise that filters up from the alley below so earplugs are a good idea, but the blackout curtains in the room work well you get what you pay for and for what we paid this was a good deal for us.

The stay was OK… of course the location was great, just a couple of minutes walk from Liverpool st station, but the stay itself felt a little impersonal. I suppose we were expecting a ‘boutique’ experience from the write up and the photos, but it was somewhat ‘no frills’ in the end, which was a bit disappointing. The staff welcome was adequate but bare minimum. We found out our room was on the top floor - 75 steps up - there had been no warning of this. Luckily we were able to manage this, but I think it could have been an issue for some people and there was no indication from the staff that they would offer to help if needed. Also, on night one we only had enough hot water for one shower, and there was no hot water the next morning. We reported it and it was fixed by the time we came back that afternoon, but again, there was no ‘apology’ or acknowledgment from the staff that there had been a problem. Other small points - the plug in the basin didn’t hold water, the grouting in the shower was a bit grubby and there was thick dust on the lamp shade over the desk. But the bed was very comfortable. Overall, just ‘OK’ considering the cost - and it could have been made better with a little more personal attention from staff .

We arrived quite late, but Anisoara had everything organised — the keys, the access code, and clear directions. The room itself was very comfortable, with a large bed, good-quality bedding, and a proper full-size bath. Because the hotel sits on a pedestrian street, it was peaceful throughout the night and we slept really well.

Although we arrived later in the evening, Anisoara had everything sorted — clear instructions, keys ready, and the entry code sent straight over. The room was comfortable with a big bed and great sheets, plus a full-size bath. Being down a pedestrian street meant it was very quiet, and we had a solid night’s sleep.

Fair stay, good location, great staff

The good: location, amazing staff, early checkin, bag storage, bed really comfy, flat screen, amenities and really good cookies!
The bad: staircases, it’s an old building so understandable but very tricky to go down, the curtains won’t block all the light, very noisy area and if you have a light sleep I’d recommend some noise canceling solution.
The ugly: the sink had its drain fully closed, I had to unscrew it for the water to run and then a terrible smell came out of it, the shower heads looks like were never cleaned from the build up calcium, the air vent in the toilet was also full of build up dust.

The room was above the Pub in a nice alleyway. After work hours there was a mob outside and a bit noisy until 10:30pm. I knew that could be the case, so it did not bother me. The beer was cold! Per the web the pub was supposed to have food, but this was not the case. Otherwise, I may have given 5 Stars. However, there were plenty of other options in the area. A great stay.

Great stay in this centrally located room

Great location. It is connected to the pub and in a renovated building. I have a nice room and each floor has snacks and drinks available. The young lady that checked me in was nice enough to carry my bags up the 3 floors, there is not elevator. The room is very nice and the bathrool has toiletris that were nice to have. I didn't hear any noise and I felt very centrally located. I would recommend and stay again. Once you check in you have your own private entrance to the building and everything is secure. TV did not work and batteries were needed for remote, I was too tired to walk down the stairs to ask for them. :). Wifi was strong.

Very unusual property. There is no hotel lobby per se - the check in area was the bar downstairs. It wasn't entirely clear upon arrival where to check in. Was shown to room, but no introduction to the WiFi. On checkout, had to search the back rooms for someone to give my key to. Strange \"hotel\". It was more of a bar with some rooms upstairs. Rooms were fine, though, if a bit tight.

The Bull is the downstairs pub. The Hide is the rooms above said pub. All the staff were very friendly and pleasant. The building is certainly more than 100 years old, but the rooms are nice. They are clean, roomy, comfortable and nicely updated. This location is just across the street from the Liverpool railway/subway station. The location is really convenient for transportation around London. There are a multitude of dining and drinking establishments and a wide variety of services within walking distance. The neighborhood is extremely busy. Don't come here expecting peace and quiet! That being said, the Hide has done a pretty good job of soundproofing the sleeping areas of the rooms. Bring your earplugs and enjoy the people and variety of the area.

Great location. However, check in is at the bar, which at 5pm on a weekday is very busy. Not ideal. And streets outside still noisy at midnight with people shouting and bottles being cleared... so not a great night's sleep. But room very nice and comfortable. Finally, no instructions given for checking out, and no staff around in the morning. Left key in thr room with the door unlocked. No idea if that was the right thing to do or not!

It didn't help that the England football team was playing at the time that we arrived but the check in process was not very good.

This is the perfect boutique hotel in a prime location. It is literally across the street from the Liverpool Street station and Eatly. The rooms are quiet even with an active pub and busy neighborhood downstairs. There is no lift and a tight stairwell which wasn’t a problem for us, but something to be aware of. They even had our room available early for luggage drop off.

Mixed Bag

We had a mixed experience here. The location is excellent, and the room itself was very nice. Customer service was close to zero. An email I sent to the hotel about check-in was never answered (I sent it more than a day ahead of time), and the first person we dealt with at the adjoining pub (there is no actual hotel reception desk) could barely be bothered to say hello or tell us anything about check-out, WIFI, etc. (he did however carry a suitcase up for us, which was much appreciated). The rooms here are essentially an appendage to the pub and are treated accordingly.

CONSTRUCTION!!! STAY CLEAR!

Be ready for a noisy stay!!! The Bar runs the Apartments above which was an interesting check-in. No elevator so pack light because you are carrying your bag upstairs. The rooms are quite nice per their pictures but very noisy as they are right above the bar. Bring earplugs if you want to sleep. While it is loud outside with people drinking on the street, be ready for the Kegs that get delivered on Wednesday at 6:10 am as they roll them down the street. My biggest complaint is the lack of transparency when I checked in and their disrespect of doing construction during my stay. I wish I hadn't prepaid and that they were open about the construction or gave me a discount. The construction started every day between 7-8 am and they left debris in the hall I had to climb over. See the pictures below and lower your standards if you stay here. I advise not paying in advance.

Pleasant stay - great breakfast

The room was lovely but a little tired in places. A bedside lamp was hanging off the wall. The sheepskin rug over the chair needed to be thrown away it just looked gross! Bed very comfortable, bathroom huge and very modern. The pub itself was lovely and great atmosphere but when we returned from the theatre it was already shut we had hoped to have a couple more drinks before bed! Breakfast the next morning was delicious, well presented lots of choice and our server was very pleasant. Only issue I had was at night you could hear the noise from outside despite the extra glazing unit in the window. Each room had access to a pantry with complimentary tea coffees soft drinks crisps and biscuits this was a nice touch. We stayed in Fishers Folly at the very top so there were about 70 stairs to climb!!

Great room, lovely pub. Only issue was Wifi did not work at all in room. Nice guy at reception tried to fix it on the first day, it worked for about half hour and then stopped and at night and early morning there was nobody around to help so I could not get any work done.

4 Nights in London!

Right in the heart of London is this unique B&B that is like none other. Located above a pub, we are steps from the Tube and close to many stores and restaurants. The staff was great and once we found our way around we had a great time! Lots of stairs to climb though…

Wonderful east end location

Our stay was execellent. I loved the historic building the hotel was in. If you dont like stairs I wouldnt stay in fishers folly. Lol. We didnt mind at all. The service was awesome. Breakfast menu was small but the options i felt were perfect for any taste. I also really appreciated them holding our bags behind the bar as we were early arriving in London. There is also a pantry i believe on all the floors that have complimantary coffee, tea, pop, water, cookies and chips. All and all i would definitely stay there again. Its very close to Liverpool street station as well.

A 50/50 satisfaction stay

I was in the Brick Lane room, which is very noisy at night because of the noise of a compressor going on and off throughout the night. I mentioned it to the staff, and it seems to be a problem for others too. The carpet near the bathroom was soaking wet due to a leak somewhere, which meant I had to put a towel down to get to the bathroom without wet feet. Although the bedsheets had been changed and the room had fresh towels, there was evidence of no further cleaning. For example, a receipt for someone else's food, a half-used small bottle of body lotion in the bathroom, deep dust on the table lamp. The staff at the Bull were lovely and did everything to make us feel welcome and accommodate us. The room also had a great choice of complimentary tea, coffee and soft drinks, plus crisps and biscuits.

Reasons to stay; location, breakfast, and customer

The hotel is ideally located about 500 meters from the Liverpool St Station, with fast-food and supermarket metros close by. All rooms are located above the Bull pub which looks like a nice local to have a pint or two to drink in.

We were staying in London to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday, The Bull was contacted prior and Ryan arranged for a bottle of champagne and some balloons, which she really appreciated.

Great little find

Excellent breakfast. Room was small but comfortable. Pantry was a good addition (on the top floor as they didn’t mention it to us). Location is fantastic as it’s 2 mins from Liverpool Street station which has both national rail and a tube stop with access to various lines so you can easily get to most parts of London quickly. Shower was decent and the pub it’s part of was nice with their own wine and a happy hour (although sadly it was really quiet when we were there due to covid so had to close early each night). Overall an excellent place to stay and good value for an excellent location in London.

Will be looking at booking again!

We had a lovely stay here. The room was modern and comfy and the building is very full of history. The staff were friendly and there were lots of lovely little touches such as a little pantry on each floor full of little goodies. The room was generally clean, just a couple of small issues that made the bathroom look a little tired, such as the button missing on the toilet flush and the shower needing some new corking. Otherwise the shower was really good and always hot and we were given clean towels daily which was fab! We did have a little disappointment on the first day as there was an issue in the kitchen and we were unable to have breakfast, the staff were very apologetic but nothing was offered in its place or to compensate which I think would have a been a good customer care move. The breakfast on our second morning was outstanding!!! The location is also great near the tube and plenty of places to shop, eat and tourist attractions on the doorstep. The pub itself also seemed to have a good atmosphere. We will definitely be looking to book again. Thank you very much.

A gem of a place

A gem of a place, really well positioned, very friendly and helpful staff, beautiful room which was surprisingly quiet given the great location. If you’re used to staying in hotels, just accept that there isn’t a 24 hour reception but as we didn’t need it, it really wasn’t a problem. If we need to be in this area of London again, i wouldn’t hesitate to return, thank you for a great stay

Great location! Hidden gem! Cute room!

Amazing little gem hidden outside liverpool st station. Perfect walking distance to eataly and spitalfields market, great location! Very noisy ac unit outside that kept turning off and on 2 minutes throughout the night, this was the only minor let down.

Hotel provides a variety of choice in breakfast dishes. Still and sparkling bottled water is included in the room. Staff are friendly and attentive.

Would definitely stay again!

The hotel is great, really clean and cosy rooms, great service and great location! The staff were all really friendly and the breakfast was lovely and an added bonus as we hadn’t realised it was included! The guest pantry was a lovely little touch too and the location right beside Liverpool Street made getting around so easy! The only slight downfall that we had was that some of the other guests were really noisy when coming in at 4.30am but that was nothing to do with the hotel or it’s staff, just some people being inconsiderate to others! Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again and recommend to others!
