This hotel sits in a great central location and the bar and service at the bar was excellent. The rooms were clean and ideal for the 1 night stay. We were a party of couples with 7 rooms hired. The one criticism, we arranged the night before that we would have breakfast together at 9.30am. Breakfast service was poor at best. The food was lovely, but we had couples waiting 45 minutes, with one couple not getting there breakfast until 10.30! Put a sad end to what was a great night.  

Great Location, Good bar. 

Magnificent, the welcome, the beer, the food, the room, the breakfast. I travel a lot and The Bull Inn at Woodbridge is the best place I've stayed at in a long while, and the previous night I was in a four star hotel!

Magnificent.

Room very noisy busy road,plumber working outside hammering from 9am to 5.15pm.
One hard chair as their was two of us one had to sit on the bed. The mirror in the bathroom was so high unable to see in it.
Mirror in bedroom so dark not much light in bedroom.couldn’t get Wi-Fi luckily the lady on reception was up and down the stairs to connect it.
With the noise in the bedroom the only other place to sit was the bar.
I must admit all the staff were good and the breakfast excellent.
Mentioned the noise to the owner and I was told a lot of maintenance needs doing on old buildings.
Parking a nightmare.
Would not stay there again.

Disappointing visit

Fantastic Sunday Roast was had by myself and wife. It was a late booking on line this morning but we had lovely time. The food was tasty and the service was excellent. Great pub and thoroughly recommended.

Great Sunday Roast 

Charming Pub & Hotel in Woodbridge on the edge of a marketplace. A variety of rooms and facilities therein. Parking is extremely limited so needs to be reserved in advance for an additional fee. The building is not accessible to those with mobility needs given its old/wonky floors layout. Our first floor room was on first view clean and tidy. Some minor points needed addressing such as a tiny fan with dust that was ineffectual against the heat of the night. Shower hose was disgusting and clearly hasn’t been cleaned in some time, full sized kettle cannot even be put under the small bathroom tap so I had to use the shower to fill it up! Loose handles on the wardrobe and untidy cables on the tv as well. Fire escape further down has cobwebs and holes in the wall exposing electrical cables ! This let down the overall presentation, had this been fixed it would’ve been a solid 5 on the scorecard. Messaged the hotel regards this but no response.

Charming Suffolk but not quite perfect.

We had a lovely lunch most polite and friendly staff. They advised us they had a big group in before us and that there maybe a wait but would do their best to get food out quickly. Food wasn’t long at all and was delicious. Dog friends lovely experience.

Lovely food and friendly staff.

Although they really, really could do with some soft furnishings - sound, aesthetics and definitely, definitely comfort… oh my word! Absolutely delicious. Made with such care and skill. Beautifully presented. Quality. The pudding was rhubarb, apple and ginger with an almond crumble and rhubarb and ginger ice cream. Presently with edible flowers and fruits - unbelievable at £7!

Sunday lunch

Visited the bull inn for two nights. The room was excellent with great amenities. The staff were very friendly and helpful. And the food was excellent. Will defiantly stay again.  Great value in a good  location. 

Thank you

Excellent stay.

Maybe New Year's Eve Brunch is not the best time to experience The Bull for the first time? We came away feeling disappointed and deflated after having such high hopes. The waiting staff appeared tired and bored and dare I say it a bit scruffy. No smile or small talk (even about the weather!). We were shown to a big table for 4 for only 2 of us and the table was sticky. There was no atmosphere in the dining room. We ordered coffees and had to ask for sugar. We ordered off the brunch menu but some items were not available. My husband asked for scrambled egg to be well done but it came soggy. My husband also doesn't like sourdough toast so asked for an alternative which was told was white or granary. He chose white which when it came was thin sliced white supermarket bread toasted. He also had to ask for butter which was just pack butter. I was supposed to have sourdough toast with my vegetarian breakfast but was told it was delayed (which then took ages) and then when it was finally served (after I had finished my meal), the young waitress was very apologetic admitting she  had forgotten about it! The hotel was setting up for their New Year's Eve dinner and a saxophonist was doing his sound checks which actually gave the room some ambience but that didn't last long. I got the feeling that maybe the hotel was saving the best to the main event and we were unlucky on our visit. My husband paid at the bar and wasn't even asked about his experience. It wasn't awful but overall disappointing. My husband asked me later which I preferred The Bull or The Crown (Woodbridge) for a coffee and Brunch experience and The Crown still wins I'm afraid. 

Disappointing Brunch experience 

We stayed here for a night to meet up with friends. Dinner was lovely, vegetarian options available and very nice, as there was at breakfast too. Compliments to the chef, lovely food. Great open fire and fab ambience. 
Snowballs were amazing! Locals were friendly, and the staff are helpful, with nothing too much trouble, an absolute credit to The Bull.
The only downside was that the room was really small, pretty expensive, and the gaps under the room door and thin walls meant everyone hears everything! 
Make sure you turn the heating down too or you’ll bake in bed in the winter!
