Good central location but too noisey and not great value for money
Pros:

Always stay in Harbour Hotels as they are good quality and this was very clean and tidy

Cons:

Didn’t sleep as the noise from outside was so loud in the evening and also the shutter blinds in the room let so much light in.
Also on top of paying for our room over £230 for one night we also had to pay an additional £10 each to use the pool facilities which we only used for 30 mins as it was underground and very claustrophobic and hot

Great central location, disappointing for price paid
Pros:

Lovely room, bed comfortable, bathroom big.
Good location for nightlife

Cons:

The parking was a 10 minute walk away nearest,
The bed was big although it came to light it was two smaller beds pushed together. The pool area had to pay extra for, and although nice the changing rooms where being decorated while people using facilities.

Group booking
Pros:

Group booking. A huge thank you to Alex and the rest of the team for supporting our group booking from the very start.
Alex was excellent in helping with the initial booking, providing options, and keeping me updated at every stage, which made the whole process feel smooth and well managed.

The feedback from our group was very positive, and many had not visited Bristol before and were really impressed with the hotel facilities, the location, and, most importantly, the level of attention and support provided by Alex and the team throughout.
