+ Happy with the room, it wasn't very big but had everything you need and even though faced the road ( rooms facing harbour cost more I guess ), it was very quiet as far as street is concerned. + Nice bath tub in the ensuite + Amazing hotel bar, one of the nicest I've ever been to. Very comfortable, excellent service and view of the harbour. The interior design and lighting was spot on too, creating a calm serenity. + Didn't have breakfast but it looks like an amazing place to have it. + Location is incredible, near the beautiful Queen Square and harbourside areas. 12 mins walk from Temple Meads station.
NetherlandsAbsolutely loved the room, the staff and the location. Such special touches, room upgrade, complimentary prosseco and macaroons in our room for my birthday. Also in our friends who we travelled with room. Highly recommended. Will be back
United KingdomAll staff in the main hotel and restaurant were extremely polite, helpful and charming. The room was lovely - overlooking the waterside. Our evening meal was very good and breakfast was plentiful. Altogether an ideal overnight treat. Car parking next door was a bonus.
United KingdomBrilliant location, the car park next door was an added bonus, heavily discounted for guests! Staff were lovely, room was clean and a decent size. Our anniversary upgrade and gifts were a lovely touch!

United KingdomThe staff were super friendly and the hotel was clean and tidy. It was a comfortable over night stay.
United KingdomWe were only staying for one night and chose the hotel for it's excellent location and nearby parking. A member of staff called the day before our arrival to check our details and also to let us know how the car parking worked, which was very helpful. We arrived after a busy day and a long journey so the warm, sophisticated atmosphere was immediately relaxing, as was the friendly and efficient check in. Our room was lovely - not huge but perfectly proportioned with an extremely comfortable bed, a stylish bathroom and a level of luxury that made it feel like more than just a base for the night. Although we didn't use the restaurant, we had a drink in the bar after our night out and thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance. The hotel's location offers easy access for everything the centre has to offer so it was an ideal choice for us. We would definitely visit again.
