I have stayed here several times. Normally very good, and I shall still use in the future. This time, however, was a little disappointing. I rang through to reception at 5:30 PM, as I was cold in my room, as the weather is now clearly into the cold winter mode. I explained I was going out at 7 anyway, but was not sure as to why the radiator was not working. I was informed it operated on a timer, and would come on at 8, but only for 2 hours. I feel the heating, at this time of year, should not be restricted to a mere 2 hours. I was informed I had a heater fan in the closet, but there was none provided for my room 45. I let that that drop at the time, as I was going out shortly, but I did draw the absence of the fan heater to the attention of the reception as I departed for a few hours. Upon return, no fan heater had been supplied, so I used the extra covers that were supplied within the upper closet. No big deal, but 2 hours at this time of year for automatic heating is insufficent, in my opinion. The room was very clean, and the bed very comfortable. The lovely breakfast is always a nice start to the day, and I really love the place and the staff. Price wise, my rate was very competitive, indeed, substantially less than Hotels literally just up the road. I shall be back, for sure, but the oversight of the fan heater, and the general heating policy in general, took the shine off this particular visit.

The breakfast girls Izzy & Darmian was very kind , considerate & professional Rest for consecutive 02 nights, my room heating was not working properly , regardless of multiple requests on the main reservation counter, nobody turned up to correct it It was quite chilly to sleep for 02 nights If the heating was out of order, room should not be allocated and a better replacement was expected which was not there at all in first place

This was a good find. Quiet non-smoking room overlooking trees. Parking, excellent location. Staff extremely nice. Generous breakfast. Very good value for money. Hot powerful shower. Only problem that there is no room for plugs to fit in the three plug sockets above the dressing table. So I had to boil the kettle on the bedside table.

Welcoming helpful staff. The rooms were clean enough and beds comfortable. Breakfast and service was good. Thankfully we got a parking space so this was not an issue for us. The hotel is in a nice part of Bristol and close to the sites we wanted to see so we didn’t need the car. I would consider staying there again. Lack of a lift was inconvenient at times.

The staff is amazing, the hotel is 20 minutes on foot to the center with plenty of buses going thru. The facility is deplorable. Stayed at a single non-ensuite and the shared shower they had barely dispensed water. I kid you not, there was barely a trickle. Have yet to see a hotel stayer who does not need a shower, it's a basic deliverable from an accommodation business. Rate is not cheap for the absence of this important facility and no amount of budget rate will ever make me want to stay at a hotel with no working shower. WON'T RECOMMEND.
