This was my first visit to Bristol and I'm glad I found The Bristol Hotel. Excellent location, extremely nice reception staff and a very pleasant room. Indeed, as a seasoned traveller, this was the first time in a long time that I did not ask to change rooms.

We had a lovely stay at The Bristol Hotel, we had a great welcome, staff were lovely and always willing to help. Location of the Hotel is perfect, in the centre of the City and close to all amenities. If we come again to Bristol, we will certainly stay there. Rooms are clean and tidy, the main lounge is wonderful.

A nice friendly welcome. Lovely comfy bed, and nice shower. It was quite a warm day so used the air con which wasn't that great and a bit noisy but that was the only negative. Had a drink in the bar which was nice and chilled.

Excellent location to see all that Bristol has to offer, check-in was prompt and friendly and the lobby area was spacious. The double room was perfect for our stay with coffee and tea facilities, iron and ironing board. The bathroom was on the small side but it did have a bath with a shower and toiletries provided and the towels were amazing. The overall sleep quality was excellent the bed and pillows were so comfy. The hotel has a lovely restaurant The River Grille and Ricks Bar, they are both reasonably priced and fantastic choice.
