The room was much larger than I expected, and bright and airy, with a massive and very comfortable bed. I was a little worried about road noise when we arrived but it was absolutely fine. The pub is really nice with a great selection of drinks and meals, and it's close to bus stops for getting into town. We had come to Bristol for a particular event, and really appreciated the decor in our room. UTG :-)

Rosalind United Kingdom

The bar and food was great, team were very helpful! Room was good! I'll be back!

Joseph United Kingdom

Really nice welcome. Was given a tour around the hotel to help us get the lay of the land. Wish I hadn't eaten on the way up as the food and the atmosphere of the pub looked brilliant

Leanne United Kingdom

Staff lovely,location great for the hospital about two minutes away.

Lorraine United Kingdom

Clean room, happy and very helpful staff. Good food and comfortable bed.

Rebekah United Kingdom

Nice and warm and huge really comfy bed Comfortable stay for the price

Diane United Kingdom

Super friendly staff. Comfortable beds. Free tea and coffee and cereal bars :) large bathroom with a warm and powerful shower. Towels provided. 10% off food and drink at the bar.

Emily United Kingdom

A warm welcome by Ben, couldn’t have done enough and asked every correct question about my stay and needs. Clean towels laid on the bed which was enormous and incredibly comfortable. The room was spotless. Although the bathroom light didn’t work that didn’t bother me, I slept like a baby in the bed! Also the food is great, I sat alone and ate the hallumi burger which was so good!

Lewis United Kingdom

Handy for Bristol, very friendly staff, excellent food right under your feet on a rainy day very difficult to leave the pub ! :)

Sebastian United Kingdom

The room was bigger than expected and had everything you’d need plus little extra touches like fruit and snack bars.
