Note: underwhelming, tiny rooms

The location and heritage building are the only positive aspects of this hotel - our room was so small that even walking past each other was a struggle, with a toddler and luggage in the room, it couldn’t have worked for more than x1 night. The decor was also extremely basic/low-budget. I couldn’t use the car park on day of departure too, so still had to find on-street parking first thing in the morning which wasn’t relaxing. Lastly, the breakfast was a little awkward. Having to ask for a tea/coffee top up (in a tiny cup) irks me - a pot on the table, or a self service station would improve that. The food was well cooked though.

Stayed one night, arrived early and was offered and staff were very accommodating im giving us a room before the 3pm check in. Didn’t have food so can’t comment . Pillows for me were too hard, but that’s just me. Good size large double (. 207) The hotel can do with having some general decorating , but it was clean . Fab location for Clifton village. This is our second time staying. Would recommend .

The property was good for an overnight stay but would not have been a choice for a longer stay. The staff were good and very helpful. There's parking available but make sure you get directions and don't rely on satnav. The entrance to the car park is small and not so obvious.

The hotel and room where excellent. Staff were all very friendly, room was spotless and the hotel is perfectly situated for all that Bristol had to offer. It was within walking distance of the SS Great Britain, the docks area, Clifton Bridge and the town centre. Alternative buses were very frequent and a bus stop was 20 yards away. The only issue would be the cost of the breakfast but overall excellent. A***

Good location

Good location in quiet square this traditional property looked filled with promise. The welcome was not warm or friendly and the staff appeared to be focused only on process. The decor is tired throughout and there was no sign of flexibility on breakfast , parking or local attractions or geography.
