Great Find
Amazing views and although an old hotel, the amenities were amazing. It had a very nice bar and Bistrot. The only issue I had was parking was very difficult.

Terrible hotel
This is the first time I have ever written a bad review of a hotel (and I travel all the time for work - so it must be really bad!). There were many things wrong with our stay, but I'll mention a few. The hotel seems to have a policy of ripping off its clients. We ate in the restaurant on two evenings and both times they tried to charge us a significant amount too much. When we checked out we were due a £15 refund, but they actually took £15 from my bank account instead. We tried to sort it out by phone, after we discovered what they had done, but the duty manager (Michele) was very rude and unhelpful and never called back despite promises by his (much friendlier) staff. We gave up in the end. It's a very dark and dingy hotel, with little natural light. We paid extra for a view of Avon Gorge and, admittedly, we could see the tops of the trees on the far side of the gorge out of the small window, but most of the view was of a horrible roof. And, finally, the hotel claims it has parking - which it does for a handful of cars - but most of its clients have to park on the street (and it's not easy to find a space anywhere near the hotel much of the time). We definitely will never stay there again.

Stunning views.
Lovely hotel, and the view from the terrace is just breathtaking. Our room was dark and the lighting was very poor. Staff were very polite and efficient. The bed was comfortable, pillows not so much. I'm wondering why the underfloor heating in the bathroom was on? Also, the heated towel rail was very hot. Both really not needed in August. Our dinner was lovely, the only fault was the steak was VERY salty. Try the Clifton Puff, it's delicious. Parking can be an issue, but that's to be expected in Clifton. We will definitely be returning. I think the £315 per night was a little pricey, but it did include dinner.

Just had one night stay with work. Great location and great view from the terrace overlooking the gorge and Clifton suspension bridge just a 3-4min walk away. However the attached bar and restaurant to the hotel I thought was overpriced for what was being offered. I had one pint, steak & chips and a side and it was over £60. The room itself was very nice, clean and comfortable. Parking is an extra payment of £12 which I hadn’t noticed on the Expedia app as well.

I disagree with some of the negative reviews about the property. It was beautiful inside and I recommend requesting a room with the view of the bridge and the gorge - just stunning. Staff were lovely as well.

This is a historic hotel located in the walkable and heavily gentrified Clifton Village area. It is a popular spot for afternoon drinks and cocktails, bachelor and bachelorette parties, birthdays, etc. the rooms are well appointed but small. The air conditioning was sporadic. The windows do not open, presumably for safety reasons , But this means that the view rooms offer very little apart from a glimpse. There is only street parking and a complementary neighbourhood placard. Parking in Bristol is it a premium and the best of times, so failing to offer a valet or some other service for cars Seems like a significant oversight on the part of the hotel

The check in process was quick and easy, we stayed in a “cosy room” which was more than adequate in terms of space for a pitstop 1 night stay. The bar staff were very friendly and overall the stay was perfect for what we were looking for.
