I read the other reviews here and decided that for 1 night I could risk it ... Now, the online room rate (single) was only £37 but when I tried to book over the phone the price doubled ... so I booked online! I would rather have spent double and had a clean room. My room was on the 2nd... more

I chose this hotel as it was the closest hotel to where I have been posted for work and is in the nicest area of bristol! The welcome was very friendly - I walked in to all the staff in fits of laughter, it made a change from the grunt I normally receive from hotel receptionists! An efficient check in... more

My Girlfriend, her mother and myself stayed for one night last month. I had read the reviews, but seeing how the hotel was already booked, i guessed it was too late. When we arrived, I was so suprised. I Was expecting a dump, but the lobby was fresh and modern. The bar was also fantastic. The rooms where good, and... more

I booked this hotel for a business trip due to its convenient location and apparently comfortable appearance from the website. However, my room was tiny, shabby and smelled of what can only be described as stale curry, I'm assuming from the restaurant/bar downstairs. And although the bar was handy for a drink and late dinner on arrival, it was also... more

This has to be the worst hotel I have every stayed in. Had to move room as there seemed to be either makeup or blood on the wall, side of bath falling off, hairdryer not working (last electrical checked in 2005!). Helpful staffed moved us room. 2nd room had countless things broken in it, holes in the walls, damp etc... more

I stayed here for business last year, I would not stay again. The rooms are tiny, boiling hot (I was offered a fan) and unclean, my shower even had a hole in the lovely plastic wall panel. When I next stayed in Bristol a premier inn provided a cheaper, cleaner, nicer option more

My husband and I have just returned from a pleasant one night stay at this hotel. We didn't book in advance, walked in off the street and asked for the best rate for that night. Told it should be £86 without breakfast but they would do breakfast included for £81. Had a really lovely breakfast, one full english , one... more

1/1 found this review helpful

We stayed at The Clifton last year and decided to stay there again because of the great experience we had. This hotel is a short bus ride from the train station (the bus stops a few building from the hotel) and is located near the Bristol Zoo, Broadmead Shopping Centre and University campus buildings. Our room was cozy, but very... more

We stayed here for two nights! Never again, whilst the Manager when we saw her on Sunday morning was helpful and realistic, even she was shocked at the problems we experienced. The room we were allocated was shocking, 2nd floor the bed was soft and uncomfortable, the room was small and poky, but reasonably clean unlike the windows. The walls... more

Although the staff were nice the hotel left a lot to be desired. I was in a very very small room on the top floor. The room was unbearably hot compared to outside and the entire floor was permeated by smells of cooking. I thus had to leave the window open but was kept awake by shouting and noise from... more
