Not impressed

Stayed in Bristol the night prior for half the money, cleaner hotel, better service, better amenities and no issues. The Grand was very expensive for the room quality, issues with the Aircon, no window to open, door frame hanging off, dirty carpet in the corridors, holes in the bathroom tiles, dirty pillows

Our initial twin room was very small and smelt strongly of bleech on entering. The aircon unit did not work so asked to be moved. Were moved to a room with a balcony. The balcony was dirty but the room was much more of a standard that we would have expected in the first place. The room photos on expedia are very deceptive and are similar to the upgraded room we ended up in rather than the standard room we initially booked.

Right by train station

Stayed overnight with friends in a triple room which is nice to have as an option. Not all hotels have this. Was a pretty basic room but would expect that for the price. Ideal location literally right outside the train station. More expensive rooms look lovely so would come again and give them a go. No early check in offered even if room is ready which is a shame.

Hotel location is pretty good. Stayed in a classic double room which is said to have air con…. It’s one of the hottest weeks of the year and I purposed searched for air con rooms. NO AIR CON!! Also bathroom absolutely stunk of bleach. To the point my feet were stinging when I first used the shower.
