Good - but a few important features missing

The two main missing features of the hotel are they're missing a business center and guest accessible laundry facilities. A pool and/or hot tub would have been nice, but not essential. Otherwise, it was very good. Food, proximity to necessary attractions, helpfulness of staff, cleanliness, etc. all were above average.

Outstanding Hotel

From the moment of check in I could tell this was a great hotel. I went up to my room, and it looked better than the pictures. I had a late dinner in the hotel restaurant, and the food was excellent. I will be back!

Rooms on 8th Floor will suffer.

I was placed on the 8th floor b/c I was attending a law school reunion. However, the first evening, before the reunion, the staff of this hotel disrupted sleep for all guests on the 8th floor by rearranging tables and chairs on the 9th floor. I called the front desk at 1:30AM but the noise continued for another 45 minutes. I cannot believe that any staff member could not have known that their actions were causing such a disruption. The next AM several guests in the elevator were discussing this nonesense that was very easily avoided.

Wonderful find!

Far exceeded our expectations! Our room was spotless, modern, and comfortable, the decor of the hotel is great, the service was good, and the location perfect. I couldn't believe we found such a gem of a hotel for such a reasonable price. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice Hotel but needs improvement

Very nice hotel but needs to improve customer service. The wet bar had expired product, warm beverages, someones left over food, and it was dirty. I asked four times for it to be taken care of and it was never attended too.

Great stay.

Good price, considering the high quality of the hotel and the fact that it is located right in the center of town. Very helpful, friendly staff. Occasionally noisy at night since my room was on the street side.

Good price, good location, clean room

I had a very comfortable 5-night stay at the Bristol. The room felt clean, the hotel atmosphere was pleasant without being pretentious, and the service was not the greatest, but was always responsive.

Great decor

I liked the color scheme and decor used in the renovations--very contemporary and comfy. Valet parking was slow.
