Very comfortable room and excellent and helpful host. Breakfast was very good and we would certainly stay here again and have no hesitation in recommending it
No bad points, although parking can be a bit of a squeeze.

Bull Lodge Guest House, York - Reviews & Ratings"The Bull Lodge was a comfortable place to stay and I have no complaints about it." (107850685)
I was pleased to have found a place that was relatively inexpensive and which provided excellent service (particularly the breakfast). The manager was very helpful and informative.
The only negative point was that the Lodge was some way from the centre of town and it took a bit of effort to locate it initially. Of course, that was not the fault of the hotel, but the information on the general website. Then again, I would have had to pay more for more centrally located accomodation.

Bull Lodge Guest House, York - Reviews & Ratings"The operators of Bull Lodge were very helpful about places to visit and where to eat. They have a complete selction of brochures and maps to get you started on your visit to York. The lodge is on a side street within walking distance of the city walls and in a very safe and quiet spot. The breakfast was delicious and very filling. I didn't get hungry for lunch until mid afternoon." (99617996)
The room was spotless and serviced just as meticulously the following day.

Bull Lodge Guest House, York - Reviews & Ratings"Roy the owner was pleasant and helpful. The hotel was quiet as were the guests - only seen at breakfast.Sharing a bathroom was not inconvenient (single room) but a more forceful shower would have been appreciated. I didn't use the lounge but it looked well stocked with TV and books etc. The TV in my bedroom was old but adequate with terrestrial reception." (3305062424)

Bull Lodge Guest House, York - Reviews & Ratings"The Bull Lodge is a small B&B in a residential part of York but very close to the City walls and the city centre. Also very handy for the University. The rooms are not huge, but comfortable, with tv, hairdryer and kettle. Our ensuite bathroom was small but with a good shower. Everything is spotless, and the owners are extremely helpful, answering any questions and going out of their way to help. Breakfasts are cooked to order and are wonderful. There is parking round the back of the B&B for about 3 or 4 cars. Guests are given a key and are free to come and go as they please. There is a great pub a short walk away towards the city walls (Rose and Crown) which does huge plates of food and good beer." (3304831997)
Very clean, quite cosy in a quaint cottagey style. Owners extremely helpful, attentive and friendly. Breakfasts were excellent.
Bedroom curtains were very thin, meaning we awoke to bright daylight early every morning whether we wanted to or not.

Bull Lodge Guest House, York - Reviews & Ratings"Bull Lodge is but a brisk quarter of an hour walk to the centre of York and is in side street, a quiet location for such a central site. The hosts care for their guests' needs, if possible a little too intrusively (a matter of taste!). The driving directions to the Lodge are very explicit but contain too much detail, distracting a driver rather than improving the route! Notices in the accommodation display the same pernickitiness (e.g. how to open a window). The hosts are clearly proud of their accommodation and service; the hotel is clean, the breakfast freshly cooked to order." (3304958626)
There was a warm welcome and attention to our needs. The accomodation was pristine.
A cramped bedroom with little space even to place two suitcases. the ensuite showerroom was similarly tight, although there was also a further large bathroom available for any guest to use.

Bull Lodge Guest House, York - Reviews & Ratings"The Bull Lodge was conviently located to the city walls, about a 5 to 6 minute or so walk away, set it a quiet location. About a 3 pound cab ride back from the center of the city. The staff was friendly and provided me with maps and phamplets of the city upon arriving. On site parking was available, which also made it easy. Thanks!" (3305226530)

Bull Lodge Guest House, York - Reviews & Ratings"The hotel was easy to find from the directions and was easy (5Mins)walking distance from the town just as the description said. We were welcomed by the owner and made to feel at home . He made space in his garage for my motorcycle so that it would be secure. The accomodation was clean and comfortable. The ownwer provided us with a map and locations of some recommended places to eat. Whilst we were out on our second day the owner even hung out some washing we had done and left on the radiator, and returned it to our room when it was dry. Its the little things that make the difference. I would certainly recommend the Bull Lodge to friends and will stay there again in the future." (3304562603)
friendly, helpful staff. Clean facilities. Secure gated parking
Couldn't single out anything that we actually disliked
