This is a charming and wonderful stay in the heart of Bristol.
Pros:

This was a fantastic stay in the heart of Bristol. We were only there one night, but were more than happy with the facilities and staff.

Cons:

The elevator was a little bit finicky to use, particularly getting luggage in and out with the double door into the elevator area, but other than that, everything was great.

Pros:

Reception staff pleasant. Bathroom well designed and up to date. I appreciated the coffee/tea, biscuit and fruit. Location good. Not a hotel chain--very much felt like a boutique hotel.

Cons:

I reserved a "cozy" room which didn't really have enough space for my things (carry on suitcase)--only 3 hangers, no drawer space, small bedside table instead of desk, no shelves in bathroom. And it was on the 3rd floor, which got a bit hot during the day. But everything was well designed, clean, and I appreciated the coffee/tea and biscuit. I think next time I will simply reserve a larger room and I will be more comfortable.

Pleasant stay in an old conservation style apartment.
Pros:

Location was very good. Love the old English conservation styled apartment. English buffet breakfast was very good too. They even gave us a welcome drink and fruits

Cons:

Tap in the kitchen was loose. Found the apartment a bit dark. Have to climb stairs with luggages. No aircon

Great location if you want to be in this area, but underwhelming for the price.
Pros:

Location was brilliant; centrally located in a lovely Georgian square, just behind the Wills Memorial University building. An easy walk down the hill to the Cathedral and harbour, or a longer walk up the hill to Clifton. The Bathroom was quite good; small but modern, clean and functional. Towels were white and fluffy, and the bed, whilst only a double was clean and comfortable. The addition of a large floor fan was a nice (but essential) touch. Secure underground parking available a short distance away - but at extra cost, and not pre-bookable.

Cons:

Our room on the 2/F was tiny, and the decor mis-matched and dated/old. The breakfast room was similarly in need of updating. Anything other than filter coffee - such as a flat white or a latte was an additional charge, which seemed petty. The quality of the breakfast was poor - a limited selection which appeared to consist of cheap ingredients looked unappetising. We opted to have breakfast at a local coffee shop on our second morning. Didn't try the restaurant as there was a private function.

Overall I was happy with the facilities and quality of the room but it was tough to have two sleepless nights ahead of t
Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable. Nicely appointed and excellent quality bedding, towels.

Cons:

Noisy although I was in the ‘quiet’ section of the hotel. Parties going on outside my window until the wee hours and due to the high temperatures, impossible to even consider closing the window. A used bath towel was taken but not replaced with a fresh one.

Avoid in the summer, no aircon and unbearable heat in the bedrooms
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Unbearable heat in bedrooms, possibly the worst nights sleep ever. No aircon, window opened only 6 inches for “health and safety reasons”, the fan just blew hot air round the room. Avoid in the summer.
