The room was warm & cozy, but the guests in the other rooms were very noisy, either partying or arguing, but either way I couldn't sleep..plus the doors slam. Noise from the street was loud, too. This place is close to bars and patrons coming out of bars were rowdy. Not a good place to stay if you're looking for... More

I recently stayed at the Inn on the last leg of a move to New York....moving those last few precious items. I parked directly in front and everything was safe. I was so comfortable in a lovely room with a fireplace, I stayed an extra day! Unfortunately, the next week I had to return to Bristol for a memorial service....and... More

My husband and I stayed recently for a wedding in the area. The Inn's location is great as it is right on the water and close to several great restaurants and some interestering shops. Location aside, the inn was nothing special, particularly for the price. You are paying for location clearly. The rooms are quite small although clean and bright.... More

This hotel still feels like it is not quite complete. The fitness room is still a work in progress. When I arrived, there was absolutely no parking due to a wedding. I couldn't even unload my car and had to park a few blocks away. The room was very clean, but it was noisy. There was a wedding one night... More

We booked late so our room was rather small and overlooked a parking lot, but it was clean and served its purpose. We didn't spend a lot of time here anyway. Be forewarned that over the weekend they hosted two weddings so it was noisy with lots of drunk people wandering around. They put us at the very end of... More

My wife and stayed here while taking our son to college. This was my first visit, but my wifes second or third. The location is great, right on the water and in the center of Bristol, the home of the longest continuous 4th of July Celebration in the US. The end of August is almost off season, so it was...

Located in beautiful Bristol, the Bristol Harbor Inn is in a great location. Parking is off-premise and down the street. There is a complimentary breakfast at the deWolfe tavern, located on the premises, which is a nice gesture as the rooms seem expensive for what they are; this is not a new hotel. The front desk staff could not have... More

I brought six others to this location for a two-day, one night planning meeting. The rooms were comfortable, the staff was attentive and accommodating, and the snacks were very good! The price was very reasonable as well, and dinner at the DeWolf Tavern (on site) was out of this world. The hotel is really in the middle of it all,... More
