Hotel had parking which was great for a city but chargeable . Had a great guy on evening reception who was very helpful and friendly and could not do enough . The hotel coming in from the car park shows its age and my room had black mould around the windows but they are old and would probably need regular black mould sorry this time of the year . The shower worked fine but looked pretty well used and generally it’s all in need of some renovation . Understand that’s on the cards . Other than the need for updating as wallpaper is peeling away above the bed very noticeably and mould it was ok.There is a lot of other places around to choose from . Anyway people were great , maintenance not so great !

Breakfast area was full even though I’d booked, was therefore unable to eat and it closed before any space became available. Room unfortunately had mould and damp on the walls. Staff service and friendliness was great however!

Angelina, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great staycst the Washington. I loved the older feel of this hotel and the staff were so friendly and helpful. I think the place is just needing some redecoration where paint is ageing and chipping. Loved the fresh ground coffee option in the room, just maybe needed a little more of that in the jar. I would stay here again.
Tony, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel was in a good location and the reception staff were friendly. It felt very safe as a solo, female traveller. For the price, the bedroom and en-suite were well designed and very comfortable. However, there was a bit of a damp smell in my basement room, there were several patches of peeled paint, neither bedside lamp worked and the sash window rattled considerably. Unfortunately, they were unable to move me without me checking out at 11 and checking in again at 3, which wasn’t possible due to a wedding. With a bit of maintenance, the room would be excellent for the price.

Welcomed with worm welcome by receptionist, room was great for what i wanted it for. The evening receptionist was so lovely, she was so helpful with knowledge of the area and help with extra bedding

Fantastic breakfast

The location was great for exploring Bristol. We were very lucky to be able to park at the hotel. The breakfast and service was excellent. However the hotel was very tired and not as clean as it should have been. When we went to our room the dirty towels and bedding were outside our door so we had to step over them. They were eventually removed once we contacted reception. It was good value but could have been cleaner.

Old and worn, not worth the money

I had booked a single room, but the bed was approximately 165 cm long! I am 180, so I had to upgrade to a double room and pay 20 pounds extra for each night! I was told that all the singleroom beds were the same size, and I find it a bit strange that they dont inform about the size when you make the reservation. The room also smelled of mold. The double room was ok, but the bathroom could have been cleaner, it was obvious that it has been a while since they did anything more than the routine cleaning. On the carpet in the room there where lots of hair... I stayed for three nights, and they did not make the bed or change the towels once. On the plus side, the staff was superfriendly, and the location is fine. You can walk to the centre in 20 minutes, and there is a bus stop 2 mins away, and they run regularly downtown to the train station. The full english breakfast was also ok. But if I am to return to Bristol I will find another hotel.
