First of all, the good, reception were excellent, we needed a parking permit when we arrived as we were holding up traffic! - it arrived very quickly and check in was very efficient. Room 5 was well proportioned, nice layout and a nice bathroom (even if it had a very cheap plastic toilet seat!) BUT - Room 5 should really not be a guest bedroom. Situated between the restaurant, the bar and the kitchen, it felt like all the food coming from the kitchen to the dining room was coming through our room! The entrance to the room is shared with a "Private" door which is the route to the kitchen! In addition, there is a door to the garden from the restaurant with a set of stairs right beside our bedroom window so you look at through the window and are literally face to face with someone on the stairs! I could have asked for another room, but knew hotel was full, so no point. TBH, we didn't use any of the hotel facilities so cannot comment on those, room was fine, but location of room abysmal.

The room was in the eaves so headroom awkward on one side of bed. Differing levels in bathroom too. Reception service was a bit haphazard - hadn't a clue when reception unattended if they knew you were there. Parking was also a bit hit & miss and unclear, but it is the same price as overnight parking on the street.

Loud - don’t go if you actually want to sleep. I stayed before a job interview and was put in a basement room. The noise from the dining room above, the loud music being played until 23:00 plus the staff toilets next to my room and staff shouting meant I slept from 00:00 until 6:30 when all the noise started again. So if you only need little sleep it’s fine. Staff did nothing said it needed a manager then when I said I would come back to discuss, they said the manager wouldn’t be in which I imagine isn’t truthful. Won’t be staying again.

Room was fine but located downstairs below the dining room so people dragging their chairs across a wooden floor for an hour or so was slightly annoying but otherwise all good.

I and my friend had a great short break. We each had a very comfortable single bedroom with ensuite. The staff were always very friendly, helpful and courteous. The location in Clifton is excellent and the main areas of Bristol are within easy walking distance. We had one evening meal in the restaurant and it was delicious. The only quibble was that the shower door could do with some attention at some point, a minor detail! Would definitely recommend.

Friendly staff but not great conditions

Small room on top floor, not too convenient with all the stairs. Electric shower was not easy to use. But staff at lobby was friendly and helpful. Room service was not amazing, they changed linen after three days (if I remembered correctly) but didn’t clean the floor for you. They washed the mugs poorly and put them back (there were still tea marks). One day around midday, room service lady knocked the door, I told her to come back later because I was still getting ready, she told me but they finish at 12.30, so can only do 12.20 (I found it a bit bizarre that room service was done that early, you lose it if you don’t get out in the morning).
