    The location is perfect! 2 minutes to Liverpool Street station to access Stansted Airport and also the underground. A lot of restaurant and cafe around The Bull. The free mini bar is also wonderful.

    My key stuck in the middle of the night gave me a panic. Couldnt unlock the door for 10mins. No available person to help. Fortunately it did work after a while but it definitely shouldn’t be that hard

    The bar was open when arrived, staff gave me the key in a minute and everything was set. No one bothered me after i got the key until the check-out. Very good location if you are going to take the train to the airport. There are Good restaurants and markets nearby.

    Nice pub, but overpriced

    It’s exceptionally overpriced for the quality of what you’re getting. I noticed that the bathroom door and wall were filthy. The bedroom ceiling and wall were filthy (I only took two photos from the bed). No attention to detail by cleaner. The towel rail was ripped off the wall, something small that should be fixed between guests. Handle of the toilet smashed against the cistern when flushed. For £261 for ONE night, there should be no niggles. I’d have expected these things from a £75 b&b, not a room presented and charged as a luxury. Whilst the distance to the underground is a plus (2 minute walk) should the unlikely event that happened to us happen to you, and the exit to Liverpool St be blocked, the next nearest station is a 15 minute walk.

    The decor is not quite as extravagant as pictured but the vibe is as nice. The bedding is clean and the amenities are modern. It’s nice that it’s typically London and above a nice typical London pub. I was worried it would be loud come bedtime; but it wasn’t. Smart TV included was nice, and the free “pantry” was a good touch, however for the price of the room it was almost a “I should think so”.

    Nothing. I never drank or ate, or even really stayed in the property long, but ultimately there was nothing to complain about.

    The property was perfectly located to Liverpool Street station. With its country pub vibe in the city, it was better than staying in a atmosphere-less clinical hotel.

    The only problem for us was the three flights of stairs that we had to go up to get to our room. Great for young healthy people, not so great for older folks who have problem climbing stairs.

    The location was excellent. The room large and comfortable with a large bath and plenty of hot water.

    Could have had more coffee in the room.

    Perfect location to stay for a city break. It is next to Liverpool St station so really easy to get around using the underground network. The room size was large and very comfortable. The bar on the ground floor is nice and cosy for a drink after a day spent sightseeing and / or before going out for the evening. My only slight negative would be the cost of the room but it is, relatively speaking for London, good value for the size of the room and relative to hotels in London in general which charge similar prices for a smaller space.

    The reception is not 24/7 so be very careful when you arrive! We has to wait for somebody to get us the keys since we arrived too early. The room is small and you have to climb some stairs to get to it

    Location is perfect for getting around. The interior is cute and everything is clean
