Stayed here a couple of times now on visits to family. Decent hotel, large rooms, breakfast was also pretty decent as hotel breakfasts go. Staff have always been very friendly and welcoming here, particularly the staff at breakfast.
Lovely experience where on arrival we were told our room had been upgraded which was a nice surprise. Staff were friendly and attentive and great view from our room.
I always stay here when in Bristol. Right on the Harbour so walking to different places is easy.
The buffet breakfast is great with plenty of choices.
Nice front desk staff.
Really nice stay. Nice room and facilities. Staff nice. Stayed on 4th floor and was nice on final night to eee sunset. Close to everything. Bristol is a fantastic place. We loved it. Would stay again definitely.
We really loved this hotel, the staff were so polite and friendly, the room was gorgeous and comfortable, the breakfast in the morning was very very good. If we come to Bristol again we will definately stay in this hotel.
Lovely overnight stay at The Bristol Hotel. Staff were very friendly. Room was very clean, comfortable and stylish. Our second visit there, we would recommend staying there, excellent location
Great location for Hippodrome and Cabot Circus. Friendly staff. Comfy bed. Great selection at breakfast and pretty view from restaurant.
Would def stay again.
Our 4th visit to the Bristol and it was as fabulous as ever. Service is always impeccable rooms immaculate we were upgraded free of charge and had a lovely welcome note chocolates and drinks in our room for my husbands birthday. The beds are really comfortable and rooms have everything you need we love the central location on the river. Overall a lovely stay we will certainly be back
Great location, comfy bed. Staff were lovely and helpful about parking. Unfortunately Saturday night is always going to be loud but the room nextdoor decided playing 90s songs at top volume from 1am onwards was ok.
