The Bull and The Hide  

In the heart of London City Centre, seconds from Liverpool Street Station and a short walk to The Gherkin, Royal Exchange and the Tower of London. Built in 1550, this smoke-free boutique inn puts Brick Lane and London Bridge within easy reach.

Part pub, part boutique hotel — the ground-floor houses a popular City pub, the first floor an intimate restaurant, and a small collection of individually designed rooms above. Rooms are air-conditioned with en-suite bathrooms, flat-screen TVs and creature comforts like desks, complimentary bottled water and electric kettles; two suites boast classic roll-top baths.

Grab a drink at the bar/lounge or unwind in the pub below. Complimentary Wi‑Fi and daily housekeeping keep things easy. Multilingual staff, ironing service and a doctor service are available, and the property maintains limited front-desk hours.

A conference hall is on-site for meetings, and rooms include desks and complimentary wireless internet to keep you connected.

Eat where the locals do — a proper City pub downstairs and an elegant restaurant upstairs. A snack bar/deli is on hand, and full breakfasts are served daily from 7 AM to 11 AM for a fee.
