The caffatiere with real coffee was a very nice and unexpected “extra”

Wendy, United Kingdom

Good Bristolian breakfast and friendly, helpful staff

Jackie, United Kingdom

Good location if Clifton is the area you want to explore. I was visiting The Performing Arts Centre which was a 5 minute walk away, ideal for me. Cabot Circus is about 30 minute walk away. The quality of the cooked breakfast was awesome, the sausages were particularly good. The staff were friendly and courteous.

Tash, United Kingdom

Staff were very friendly & helpful. Lovely downstairs bar. Cooked breakfast was excellent.

Emma, United Kingdom

Comfy bed. Very good breakast, quality ingredients.

Chris, United Kingdom

The location and room. Nice addition of some fruit in my room.

Paul, United Kingdom

The staff were helpful and happily moved my room when the restaurant proved too noisy to focus on my work. The maid even moved my bags to the new room. The coffee shop in the lobby was quite convenient when open. The location provided easy access to nearby university buildings. The daily helping of fruit, fresh tea and coffee, and the digestives was a nice treat.

Samuel, Switzerland

Nice coffee in the room. Staff did their best in the face of numerous complaints from a number of guests . The parking in the secure garage. This hotel is in a good position, it just needs a lot of updating.

Helen, United Kingdom

Racks bar was good, it had a nice atmosphere and good drinks and food selection. The location was ideal for both Clifton and the city centre.

Briony, United Kingdom

Being woken up just after 7am two mornings running by another guest slamming their door. They had as many keys on them as a prison warden. But being woken up by another guest is just one of those things. Creaky floorboards.

The noise from the restaurant in the cellar prevents sleeping on the weekends if your room is anywhere near the courtyard.

“Overpriced and disappointing ”

- • Stayed 1 night

There were a lot of poor maintenance issues. The stairs and some rooms were shabby. Broken window locks. Radiators not working properly. Light bulbs not working. Breakfast was disappointing, a poor choice of fruit, no croissants, horrible coffee. The single rooms were very small. Bed felt old and lumpy. Would have preferred duvet to the brown blanket. The breakfast was served in the bar with sticky tables. There was a musty smell in the hotel in general.
Nice coffee in the room. Staff did their best in the face of numerous complaints from a number of guests . The parking in the secure garage. This hotel is in a good position, it just needs a lot of updating.
