All but 1 member of staff were very helpful, kind and joyful. Hotel is clean and tidy. Breakfast was decent and plentiful. The mattresses are very firm but pillows and duvets were nice. Our aircon didn’t work and we found out that the hotel was aware of this, a week prior to our arrival. However, they decided not inform us and expected that it was perhaps our fault for not asking if it worked, at check in. At £220 a night - I did expect a lot more. The toilet seat was also broken.

Convenient and close to the Temple Meads train station. Staff were friendly, helpful and cheerful. Good selection for breakfast! Lighting in the bathroom is terrible. Bed was comfy but not big enough for 2 people. This stop served our purpose for a short stay.

Great staff, AC problem
The staff in the evening and the morning were all very helpful and went out of their way to help us. We had a problem with our room air conditioning. Even with help, the room never really got cool, which made for an uncomfortable night for sleeping.

Don't stay here
I checked out 10 minutes after I checked in. The room was small and dirty and hot and not up to Holiday Inn standards. I was assured by the desk clerk that I wouldn't be charged, but I was. I'm currently contesting the charge

Two minutes walk from Bristol railway station. Cleanliness of room excellent, breakfast constantly topped up. On upper floor, no traffic noise though overlooking main road. No corridor noise, comfortable room. Just one issue, only one lift for the whole of the building, we had to walk up and downstairs several times.

Room very clean and comfortable. Ensuite toilet and shower also very clean. Shower had plenty of hot water. Breakfast was really good. Plenty of choice of food and beverages, both hot and cold. Noise from traffic was noticeable even from the 6th floor, but this did not disturb my sleep. Wifi was a decent speed, but it did not permit me using apps like BBC IPlayer, Pluto TV and ITVX. This may have been a temporary glitch, but it only occurred in the hotel. Good location.
