Also had safe, covered parking

Compact well appointed room in elegant setting
Pros:

Great location.
I had to use on street parking. Get the Ringgo Ap for that.
Good shower & bath.
Mini bag handy & kettle good.
Good comfy bed & linen.
Lots of tea & chilled milk included.
Great breakfast.
Traditional Victorian/ Georgian style hotel vibe.
Quiet despite location.

Cons:

Had to clamber over bed to get at window, curtains, room phone, radio & sockets: felt clumsy and student digs vibe with built in sofa/seat.
A wedding meant no restaurant or bar, wasn't a big deal.
The site says dbls are "cosy" but it's difficult to envisage it. 2 people would have been a crush. The description is accurate but prepare for not much foog space
Stairs a bit tired.
Felt student-studio-stylee.
No room safe.
No additional door bolt security beyond key+operated DBL lock.
Air con control but no apparent air con. Could be hot in summer?

Comfy and Friendly
Pros:

The staff on site were incredible and friendly. Despite my comment below the staff kept us informed anyway. The hotel for what I seen was lovely. The room was comfortable and the little extras placed out were a nice touch. I would come back as the location is perfect and the room and staff itself, make this a great place to stay.

Cons:

Even though I was told weddings were taking place during our visit, it was a few days before our stay. If I was told in advance I probably would have rebooked elsewhere. we were unable to use the bar or restaurant there. We were offered to go to the sister hotel and they always kept me informed. Would have been nice to see more of the hotel as our room was below street level.

Un hôtel à recommander notamment pour les universitaires en contact avec l'Université de Bristol
Pros:

Je m'attendais à un banal hôtel construit dans un building "froid et anonyme" comme il s'en construit des milliers aujourd'hui et je me suis retrouvé dans un magnifique bâtiment de l'époque "Regency" beau, mais aussi plein de charme, situé dans un square vert à la belle unité architecturale : un bel endroit !

Cons:

Un micro détail : j'avais réservé le breakfast tous les jours, mais le samedi matin, la porte du restaurant m'a été refusée (par une dame peu aimable et très intransigeante) à mon grand étonnement : on avait oublié de me prévenir que les heures du petit-déjeuner avait été exceptionnellement modifiée ce jour-là. Mais rien de grave : le quartier pullule de cafés où trouver des breakfasts.

Disappointed
Pros:

Location...superb for sightseeing/ahopping and only 10 minutesby car ro BristolTemple Meads Train Parkway...lots of parking and area quiet despite being just off the high street.

Cons:

Room was dirty stauned walls , dust every where ledges/telephibe/desk/ cistern top was grimey and the quilt cover had a mark on it and including bedding we had to complain twice as no management on site over the weekend.
We sat in the lounge as we were able to until 1430 on Saturday but found the table sticky...book stuck firmly to the top...the wall under the coffee machine was absolutely grubby and stained.. This made us look more carefully at our surroundings and the hotel is in need of refreshing and better cleaning staff as they so a mediocre job of cleaning
The hotel had an event on which we were called and advided on but we were not advised that the facilities of the hotel was closed to hotel users so no access to bar or restaurant
For a 4* hotel it was far from it, however upon leaving the hotel we met with a Manager who like the receptionists listened to us and promised changes and also made compensation for our poor stay aa they didn't want us to leave unheard. Thank you Miguel as we said with better cleaning, a refresh and better communication would make this hotel what we expected.
