A lovely historic building with comfy and clean rooms, helpful and friendly staff, and great food (we are vegetarians and found the food options to be quite unique/interesting and good quality). We were also given a later checkout time due to travel connections, which was hugely appreciated.

£113 and breakfast was extra. Not worth it... if this is your budget, pay a little more and go to Cadbury House. Worth no more than £80/night. Rooms are a little tired and being woken up at 6am to a broken alarm was far from ideal! No communication from staff, just other people staying and it took about half an hour to sort! Wouldn't stay again at that price!

I loved the rooms and restaurant, staff were lovely. The only reason for the 3 stars is the location. The beautiful old building is right under Bristol airport flight path. From 6am, every 5 minutes, a plane flew overhead. Very early start to my day.

Good stop over

Staff very friendly. Most of our food was good. What needs pointing out is the restaurant times for dinner, as we booked for 7pm, and when I rang to say we could be later, due to work commitments, I was told they stopped taking food orders at 7.45. Some updating needed at this hotel, in the rooms, But we would definitely stay again. 😊
