Although the hotel itself is very nice, the noise from the street outside was terrible. We stayed on a Friday night and could hear noise from the bars, people out on the street shouting/swearing. This went on until 4am so we had very little sleep (we were on the 5th floor). When I told the receptionist when we checked out she said it was because it’s a city centre on a Friday night so is to be expected!

The hotel was easy to get to from Bristol airport. The room was very comfortable. We had breakfast each day and although limited enough the quality of the food was excellent. The restaurant has a lovely view over the harbour area. We had an evening meal there one night during our short stay and the food and ambiance were excellent.

Breakfast was poor for the money, sausages were like bullets, waited ages for bacon as it was empty , eggs like rubber, it seems it was all pre cooked and warmed up and waited over 10 minutes to be offered a table, not good for £18 each

Our room was somewhat small, considering we hadn’t booked the cheapest room and it was standard size. I’d say the bathroom was the biggest issue as the door opened inwards so you had to sort of squeeze around it to get in and out so felt a little claustrophobic. There was no fridge in our room which was ok for a single nights’ stay but had we been there longer, this would have been disappointing. Room was a little warm and so we did open the window but couldn’t leave it open all night as it was loud outside (undetectable for a Friday night in the city to be fair). It was a decent stay in a very good location but not sure if we would stay again or try somewhere else.
