8/10 Very good

Friendly staff, comfortable room, friendly staff
ian, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel was easy to find and in a good location near lots of things to do. Receptionist at check in was an absolute doll, very friendly and my room was even upgraded for free. The room was clean, bed soft, noise level was pretty good. The building itself is pretty old, the rooms have physical keys and old style doors and the floors are a bit creaky, but that's not a problem. Great place for the price, would absolutely stay there again.

Good location,staff were lovely, room was ok,but was cold in the night ! And two beds pushed togeather to make a big one wasn't very comfortable! Especially for the price! But was nice and would stay again.

10/10 Exceptional

A lovely hotel with very helpful staff. The only downside is noise from a cellar wine bar. I was fortunately able to change room. However, ground floor rooms can be disturbed by noisy parties.

Nice base for Bristol

Lovely hotel in a good location near most things in Bristol. Room is comfortable, a little small, but fine for a couple of nights. Staff were lovely and friendly.

All round excellent

From the moment you arrive you are made to feel welcome. Reception staff and check in excellent. The room was lovely. Very clean and with good coffee etc. I will definitely make this my first choice in Bristol.

Warm welcome Hot shower Comfy bed ticked all the boxes when the chain hotels were ridiculously priced, this was a pleasant surprise, & a hotel I’ll use again !!
Bryan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The area is quiet and nice and the staff very polite. The rooms are clean but they are super hot without a proper ventilation other than a small fan and a window that you can lift no more than 2 inches..
Tasos, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

gggGGGREAT!

Chloe and Flo’s welcome on the front desk was the best way to start a day for a cranky overtired traveller such as myself. The guys serving the breakfast were equally friendly and spritely. They have the best staff and the hotel location and setting are gggGGGREAT!
Mark, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Comparable to a hostel

Room had a crushed biscuit under the bed visible from bathroom. Sheets smelt used. The room was hot. My suggestion would be to close down in honesty.
Kenneth, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Was a good stay, staff were very nice and helpful. Hotel is in a good location too!
Mazin, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The check in was fine. The room was on the ground floor above a night club which were not made aware. The music was so loud that we were unable to hear the TV and trying to get to sleep was pointless, at one point people were banging on the ceiling which was our floor!! This has got to be the worst Hotel room I have ever stayed in. Also the shower head won't hold up when you have a shower. On a positive the bedding was crisp and clean. Room 12 avoid. When we checked out they said the management would be in touch!!!! Still waiting.

Ahmed, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

The windows did not open and there was no climate control in the room - only a fan. I was in desperate need of fresh air/climate control throughout the night and hardly slept at all.
Jane, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice friendly staff

Everyone at reception was helpful and friendly. Great central location. There was a heatwave and despite being provided a fan the room was extremely hot. Not much the hotel can do about it but might be worth considering a newer hotel with air con instead if travelling during heat waves.
