Nice independent hotel in a great central location
Pros:

This is a nice hotel in a quiet square very near to the main University buildings. My room was clean and comfortable, with a view of the city to the west (I think). It was, as clearly described on the website, very 'cosy', perfectly comfortable for a single guest but I think it might have felt crowded if there had been two of us. I stayed in the middle of an oppressive heatwave but the room remained a comfortable temperature thanks to smallish windows and a decent fan. There was also a separate DAB radio, which is a really nice touch. Service was friendly. Breakfast was good, and also good value compared with other prices in the neighbourhood. Although the room was small, the bed itself was a decent size (I'm 6'2") and very comfortable.

Cons:

My room was very small, perfect for a single person but could have been more difficult for a couple. In fairness, the hotel website is absolutely clear about this.

Na sowas.....!9
Pros:

Gute Lage zu Fuss war vieles erreichbar

Cons:

Nachts leider lärmige Umgebung. Während einer Hochzeit konnte ich als Hotelgast nicht ins Hotel und musste vor der Haustüre warten bis die Zeremonie fertig war. Wie wärs mit separatem Raum für Hochzeit? Sodass Hotelgäste nicht draussen warten müssen. Finde das geht gar nicht.

Pros:

Posizione e cordialita' del personale

Cons:

La struttura ha bisogno di essere rimodernata. Dall' ascensore al carpet allo stile delle stanze. Il carpet, I divanetti e la testata del letto in in velluto stile anni 90 non e' igienico e non permette una pulizia accurata.

Friendly helpful staff, excellent location, clean, safe and quiet.
Pros:

Very friendly, helpful staff. Nice and quiet on the top floor, with a very comfortable bed. Excellent location, close to the Museum and convenient for a lot of town. Car park is first come first served. I had to park on the square for my first night, but this was free overnight, and as guests left in the morning I got my car into the car park which was very secure, and reasonably priced for central Bristol. No air conditioning in room, but there was in the hallways. Recently decorated room with lots of nice little touches.

Cons:

Cosy room is, well, very cosy, i.e. small and hot (but I was staying during the heat wave).

Pros:

Very friendly and welcoming. Easy check-in and nice layout in the bedroom. Fairly clean room, but it needed an extra clean in certain areas e.g. window frames, walls.

Cons:

I know the hotel can't have air conditioning because it's a listed building, but one fan in a large room is not adequate, especially with the hotter days. I was unable to have a good nights sleep. The breakfast was pretty standard but needs the cooked food to be hotter.
