I stay in Hull Once a Month on business, and have tried a variety of different Hotels. I chose the Whittington because of it's location - by the marina, and 5 mins from the center of town. The 4 star rating for the accommodation for the price also was attractive. The rooms are themed, I chose the Emerald room -... More

This pub could do with trying harder at being a B & B. it's lack lustre and dull and they can't even be bothered to do breakfast( you are instructed to go to a cupboard on the landing and help yourself?!!!!???) It's more like a hostel. And it needn't be because its clean and the room was decorated fairly well.

Great venue this. It is close enough to the town centre to be central but far enough away to be quiet. They have some lovely rooms which are clean, spacious and very reasonbly priced. But the best thing about this pub is the food and drink. Eaten here on numerous occasions and never had a bad meal, always excellent. Great... More

Spent just one night there, and sadly had a 4am start the next day, so didn't spend as much time in the lovely comfy bed in the lovely room as I'd have liked. I can't fault anything at all, and the staff that I met were very friendly and helpful.
