Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel
"Was going to a concert at the Bristol Beacon so the location was perfect. Can’t really say much about the facilities or staff, but the bed was comfortable and the shower was good."

The Bristol Hotel
"Bar food not good and Sauvignon blanc at £12 for 175 ml a very high price. Lounge area low tables, loudish musac, and chairs very heavy to move closer together. Bed comfortable but standard room small with loud old aircon."

Clayton Hotel Bristol City
"This is a pretty average hotel. It’s very clean and the lobby looks very impressive. However beyond that the corridors are dark, looming never ending mazes that lead you to average rooms. Tiny double beds. The breakfast is pretty bad, looks like a generous buffet but the quality is not good."
