The rooms were clean with comfy beds. Despite being in a pub, it was really quiet. The food was really nice, and breakfast starting at 7 meant we could eat before we went to work. All the staff were really friendly. They even fetched water out for the dog owners who had fetched their dogs to sit outside. The beer garden is really cosy and set back from the road and has plenty of cover for if it rains.

Not me personally, but I’m guessing some people might complain about the parking being limited, but there is plenty of parking close by. We has a large pickup which I usually have problems parking in most car parks so it wasn’t an issue for us.

I stayed in one of the apartments belonging to the Old Bull Inn - the apartments are in an annex building a few steps away from the main building, but I still had access to all the same perks (breakfast, etc) as any other guest. The apartment was absolutely beautiful - spotlessly clean and well-kept - and the Inn's staff were wonderful from the time of my arrival, carrying my luggage over to the annex and up the single flight of stairs for me (there is no lift, so be warned if that's an issue for you), and seeing that I was comfortably installed. I ate my meals at the Old Bull, and the food and service were both excellent. I had a wonderful stay here, and would happily return.

There was nothing that I didn't like, I very much enjoyed my stay.

The historical building. Would have liked to know more of its history as a coaching Inn. Staff helpful. Room generally comfortable. We were out in the evening so sadly didn't use the hotel bar or restaurant. Situation was excellent.

WiFi very patchy upstairs. Pillows uncomfortable. Decidlely lumpy! No bath plug. Breakfast fine but unimaginative in its range. I (Female) didn't like facing an array of shelved magazines at breakfast (admittedly only Sunday supplements! ) with pouting/posing females on the covers. It looked as if someone had deliberately arranged them so!

We have just had a lovely break in Royston and the Old Bull's central location was perfect. The staff were all lovely and the food superb, very generous portions. We wanted to come and stay again next month but unfortunately there are no vacancies.

Nothing really. The carpark is quite small but we were lucky to get a spot every day after our trips out.

Location is excellent. Near super market, near coffee place, near bars and restaurants. I have slept in the softest bed in the world! The building was absolutely gorgeous full of character. A tasty breakfast was included in the price. The apartment i've stayed in was very clean and well equipped. It felt like a home.

That I couldn't sleep more hours on that amazing mattress!!!

Its a v old pub, full of history. The hotel bar and catering are extremely popular and the accommodation is dated , but appropriate to the era it was built. The cooked breakfast was lovely and the staff v welcoming and our 4 poster room was huge and high, with effective heating, except in the bathroom.

The decor is in need of refreshing as the window frames around the hotel are flaking and it’s generally a bit jaded.

An old Inn well maintained considering its age, still some traditional features, above a good pub with good food. The staff were friendly, the location was ideal at the edge of the town center so not too busy but still having access to eth amenities

Nothing really, The rooms do show their age as you would expect, but not really a dislike more of an observation.

The Inn was excellent for it's age, both in comfort and amenities. Breakfast was always a good way to start the day and the pub was nice for a late night drink. The room was fairly quiet for being over the pub and beer garden. Only wish we had the chance to try a meal, other than breakfast, downstairs.

Though the claw foot tub was nice, it was difficult to get in and out of and might be a problem for those who can't step that high. The shower curtain made you a little closed in.

the staff was friendly, rooms big and comfy and breakfast was nice.

it would have been nice if at check in we were advised to pre book a taxi if one was needed. luckily we had friends staying close by who could pick us up to pick our car up. As we phoned for a taxi in the morning and was advised that the closest taxi was 5 hours away

Lovely staff, really special building and easy access. Perfectly nice room and facilities. Not a cheap option but very much what I expected and I was very happy with my choice.

I felt I was very lucky to get a space behind the pub as there was only one left – a minor disaster avoided, as Royston is a maze of one-way streets and charged car parks. I don't know what I would have done if I couldn't park up in good time! (I know I'd been told that reserving one wasn't possible.) One other really tiny thing – my poached egg at an otherwise excellent breakfast was very overcooked!
