Pros:

Excellent location on the harbour, convenient and reasonably priced car park

Cons:

Our room wasn't serviced and when we pointed this out, there was no apology - although the room did then get cleaned

Nice hotel and restaurant in the centre of Bristol
Pros:

Central Location, good breakfast, rooms are a generous size, mine was quiet. Staff were friendly and there were always enough of them so you didn´t have to wait to be attended.

Cons:

There are only two lifts and one was broken so in peak times this can be an issue although I never felt I was waiting too long despite that.

Pros:

The location was great and staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

I booked a deluxe room but it seemed very standard. There wasn't enough tea available and one of the milk cartons was sour. The decor and bathroom was very dated.

Will use again for location. Very overpriced for what’s on offer. The cleaning is the main issue and the reception staff
Pros:

I like the foyer and the bar and restaurant

Cons:

The hotel room was dirty. Stains all on carpet. Black mould in the bathrooms and ridiculously small bathroom. Dirt under beds and filthy skirting boards . As a professional cleaner this is simply unacceptable. Hair dryer was broken and had to wait nearly a hour for a replacement leaving me sat wet and cold.
