Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were comfortable and had everything we needed, although they lacked some usual amenities like slippers and a dressing gown. The service was outstanding, especially with the staff promptly addressing noisy neighbors. The location was superb, close to many attractions and with picturesque views. The dining experience was not great, and the prices could have been more justified. The hotel facilities were satisfactory.
My stay at this hotel was quite a mixed experience. The rooms, although clean and well-equipped, were constantly disrupted by ongoing drilling from the lower ground. On the bright side, the room overlooked a tranquil inner courtyard, making it a peaceful retreat easily accessible to the main areas. The service was top-notch with helpful and efficient staff, though there were slight discrepancies in information provided. The location was ideal for our trip, offering secure parking and easy access to the town center and park street. However, the dining experience fell short of expectations in terms of quality and price. Overall, a stay with some highs and some lows.
I had a great time at the hotel! The room, with a coffee machine and hot drink facilities plus a small fridge, was very comfortable, and the view of the Cathedral was excellent. The location is amazing, perfect for sightseeing and close to bars and restaurants. However, the dining experience wasn't excellent, and the coffee was served in a paper cup without a coffee presse, which was a letdown.
The hotel offers nice and spacious rooms, some without external windows, clean with good showers but slightly dated. The service is brilliant, with helpful staff despite a slightly harried look. Location is excellent for exploring Bristol, just around the corner from the Theatre with perfect facilities. The dining experience, although not clear at booking, offers many choices with good quality. Overall, a comfortable stay with great service and excellent location.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. On the bright side, the hotel was conveniently located near Bristol Cathedral, allowing us to drop off our belongings early and explore. However, being placed on the ground floor for the second time was a letdown, especially during the hottest day in the UK. The room had a direct view of the cathedral but unfortunately had issues with the air conditioning, which pumped hot air into the room.
The hotel is located right beside vibrant bars and restaurants near the harbor, offering a great atmosphere. The rooms are modern, spacious, and clean, though there were some noises from generators or fans in the corridor. The service was fantastic with friendly and attentive staff, making our stay enjoyable. The dining experience didn't quite meet the high standards expected, and there were some issues with pricing and availability of items. Overall, the stay was pleasant with wonderful service and a central location.
Arriving early afternoon, the room was made available within an hour, lacking some character but spacious. The option of breakfast in the room was a nice touch, though the price paid was on the higher side.
My stay at the hotel was mixed. The rooms were a bit tired with some stains on the wallpaper, but they were spacious and had a lovely bathroom. The service staff were helpful and friendly overall, except for a mishap during breakfast. The location was excellent for exploring Bristol, although there was some noise at night from the harbor area. The dining experience was great with delicious options, making it a top choice if I returned to Bristol. Overall, it was a decent stay with both positive and negative aspects.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable, but a bit small and warm despite the air conditioning. The location was fantastic, right next to shops and restaurants on the waterside, making it convenient for exploring the city center. The service was friendly, although there were some unprofessional incidents. The dining experience was good with plenty of options, but breakfast could use some improvement.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a separate living area, including a large TV and extra sofa bed. However, the lack of functioning lifts and room temperature being too hot were drawbacks. The friendly and efficient service, with thoughtful gestures like sport drinks for marathon participants, added to the positive experience.
The hotel rooms were a good size and of a high standard. Unfortunately, the disco and entertainment below my room were quite noisy, disrupting the experience. The spa, pool, steam room, and jacuzzi were all closed without prior notice, which was a letdown for what was supposed to be a romantic spa weekend with my partner.
The hotel offers cool, comfortable, and spacious rooms throughout the whole hotel, including the room, with fantastic amenities like a coffee machine and hot drink facilities, plus a small fridge. Service went above and beyond to provide an enjoyable experience, from a great gym to a cozy sleeping environment. The location was amazing for exploring the city and convenient to many attractions, despite occasional disturbances. Dining offered variety but lacked specific dietary options. Overall, a great stay with some minor downsides.
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were nice, though a bit dark on the lower floor, and the bed was comfy, although the pillows were too soft. The lack of noise despite a Xmas party was a bonus, but not being able to access the spa really put a damper on what was meant to be a romantic spa weekend with my partner. The pool area was disappointing due to closures, dampness, and out-of-order facilities.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms offered stunning views overlooking the water and Watershed area, but the hot water in the shower wasn't working during my visit. Despite being comfortable and spacious, the room felt a bit dated and small.
