Not bad but not spectacular either
Pros:

Good location with an integral car park

Cons:

Awkward to get into the car park
Also quite expensive to park the car on top of the price to stay
Room was ok but not outstanding for the price

Pros:

Very spacious room.
High ceilings.
Large bed.
Nice toiletries.
Beautiful hotel interior.
Polite staff.
Charging points both sides of bed.
Nice bathroom, very spacious and attractive.

Cons:

Poor view, we were hoping for a view, but were facing a wall.
We were surprised to find a bouncer at the door of the hotel when we arrived back in the evening who interrogated us. Not very classy. I would recommend a doorman for such a high class hotel rather than a club style bouncer.

Lovely hotel shame it’s let down by kitchen extractor fan issue
Pros:

Air conditioning in rooms
It was clean and well equipped
Large carpark
Central location

Cons:

We were disappointed with our room. We realised the room had a strong extractor fan / grease smell . Tried ringing from the room but unable to get through to reception so we had to go down to complain , and it’s a very long walk ! . We moved rooms only to find there was construction on the floor above !! Drilling and banging noises went on until well after 6.00pm and the started up before 8.00 am . At that point we were too hot and bothered to ask to move again but I would have if it we had been staying more than one night

Bardzo dobry hotel w świetnym punkcie z rewelacyjną restauracją.
Pros:

Bardzo dobry hotel w wielkim starym pałacu położony tuz obok katedry w Bristol. Wnętrza bardzo stylowe. personel miły i uczynny. Pokoje duże i wszystko w nich jest, co potrzeba - w odpowiedniej dobrej jakości. Restauracja fantastyczna - steak-house. Steki są najwyższej jakości, podane z bardzo ciekawymi dodatkami - a smak niezapomniany. Cena taka jak w Warszawie. Obsługa rewelacyjna. Lokalizacja hotelu bardzo dobra. Okolica bezpieczna i ładna. Parking w garażu podziemnym - goście mają 50% zniżki, płaci się 17 GBP za dobę.

Cons:

Śniadanie było bardzo sztampowe, nic twórczego, smak też średni.
