6/10 Good

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!
Hannah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was lovely. Tea, coffee etc very good. Linens and towels pristine. Bed was exceptionally comfortable. Bathroom was adequate, clean but shabby. The day I was there the chef was off sick, so no hot food. Overall very good.
Jane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

a pleasant stay in Bristol

nice, friendly welcome from the woman on reception. I had my single room upgraded to a larger room too which was nice. plenty of tea and coffee in the room along with some biscuits and some fresh fruit. didn’t have time for the cooked breakfast in the morning as i had a train to catch but they arranged for me to have a bacon and egg sandwich to take away with me which was tasty. would definitely stay here again when i next come to Bristol

10/10 Exceptional

Good stay

Quick check in polite staff thought £12 per night parking was a little steep but was worth paying for private parking in a city room clean tidy good choice of beverages and fruit hot chocolate and coffee including a ground and cafetière bed comfy and clean there was a good hearty full English breakfast included with also continental meats and cheeses and fruit overall an excellent experience thank you
Stewart, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Wonderful staff, rooms in poor condition.

Staff were very welcoming and professional. The building is old and that is reflected in it's condition. The window in our room rattled which added to our poor night's sleep. We could hear everything going on in the reception area. The bathroom was a joke. Knees nearly touched the wall when seated on the toilet and when flushing the toilet a pump could be heard for an extended period of time. Not a great experience especially for the price.

A basic guest house, nice enough staff but some attention to decor needed.
Benjamin, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Good location but expensive for a three star hotel

Breakfast was average with some items missing from the English breakfast - on both days we were there. The toast making facilities were very bad. The room was average with one of the beds nearly blocking the bathroom door. There was no extractor fan in the bathroom.
