Comfortable stay near the station for a 2 night break to go on the Royal Duchy steam train
Pros:

Well located a short easy walk from Bristol Templemeads and the vibrant, interesting regenerated old harbour area for evening meal and stroll.
Comfortable bed, excellent efficient large walk in shower, good breakfast.
We reported an issue to the friendly young man on reception Monday morning and he was very responsive having the authority to sort it out to our satisfaction without hesitation.

Cons:

Our room was not serviced during our 2 night stay, reported to reception who agreed this was not their usual standard and quickly apologised and offered a complimentary breakfast.

Ok minus
Pros:

Hotel location.

Cons:

Found the breakfast a bit overpriced. Fairly standard.
Reasonable choice but had to request items which should have been available.
Didn't have breakfast on days 2 and 3 because the coffee was so poor.
The hotel vibe was very much that of a business facility. Eg Interviews (loudly) taking place in the guests lounge area.
Room looked tired eg curtains in poor quality not hung properly
The available robes would barely fit a child, although they were labelled large. I'm not that big.
My main gripe refers to the screen in the foyer promoting Uber taxis for guests. I used this, thinking I would pay U er prices. I was charged £29. My so arranged the taxi back, same journey but via the app and it cost £11. Very angry re that

Pros:

Comfy bed. Well appointed room. Clean and tidy.

Cons:

Broken furniture. Loose drain in shower. Bedside light that flickered. Not quite city centre as took 30 mins to get anywhere!
Alot of money for one night in a location which is not really that central.

Lovely hotel, managed really well and in a great location. Will definitely stay here again.
Pros:

Staff were friendly and welcoming and because our room was ready we were allowed to check in early without having to pay a fee, unlike when you stay at Premier Inn. The Hotel has parking which was another bonus.

Cons:

Nothing, everything was spot on.

Great value, exceptionally clean, comfortable sleep over
Pros:

Quick overnight stay, so can't attest to the facilities other than a very comfortable room that was fully equipped, exceptionally clean and fresh, and helpful staff that seemed happy to help you check in even at late night. Location is great, although within the Clean Air zone, so bear that in mind if you are driving. Plenty of parking spaces, although I was fortunate to find the last space due to late check in. Not the cheapest for 24h parking, but good value considering the convenience.

Cons:

Nothing unsatisfactory of note really. Considering I've stayed at tatty b&b for nearly the same price, I'd say Double Tree is fantastic value.

Pros:

Wygoda, estetyka i komfort calkiem ok, ale można poprawić zawsze

Cons:

Lokalizacja pokoju zbyt blisko wind co powodowało dyskomfort przechodzacych głośnych osób. Niektórzy nawet walili w drzwi pokoju wzniecając hałas.
