Guests frequently praise the hotel's excellent location near the harbour and restaurants, describing it as 'perfect overlooking the harbour'. Multiple reviews highlight the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms, including 'spotlessly clean' and 'bed was super comfortable'. Staff receive positive remarks for being friendly, helpful, and accommodating, with specific mention of exceptional service at the bar. The George White Suite was commended for hosting a successful private event without additional room hire charges. The hotel offers well-maintained facilities such as a fitness centre and a cosy lounge/bar area overlooking the river. Some guests noted small bathroom sizes, with one review calling the bathroom 'very small' and another describing accessibility issues in the superior accessible room. There are occasional complaints about inconsistent hot water temperatures and the breakfast experience, including limited seating and slow service. A few reviews mention signs of wear in rooms and uncomfortable beds, especially in accessible rooms. Limited accessibility inside the hotel was noted, as the bar area is not wheelchair accessible and there are no internal ramps to the restaurant.

Description

The Bristol Hotel is a four-star establishment built in 1966 and renovated in 2008, offering a wide range of room types from Economy Single rooms to expansive Presidential Suites and multi-bedroom apartments. Rated 9/10 overall, it scores consistently high in cleanliness, amenities, location, and service, each rated 9/10. Guests can expect services including free parking, WiFi, a fitness centre, a restaurant, and a bar with river views. The hotel also provides business facilities like a business centre and meeting rooms. Accessibility is thoughtfully addressed with some rooms designed to accommodate wheelchair users, though internal ramps are limited. The décor is traditional yet well maintained, and the hotel features a terrace and kid meal options. Practical conveniences like currency exchange, luggage storage, and express check-in/out contribute to a smooth stay.

Location

Located on Prince Street in Bristol, the hotel is just minutes from the harbour and waterfront attractions such as the SS Great Britain and Bristol Cathedral, both within a 10 to 20-minute walk. The hotel is near the vibrant restaurant and café scene including Bordeaux Quay (170 m), No.1 Harbourside (172 m), and Riverstation (298 m). Park Street, known for shopping and dining, is about a 5-minute walk away. The Bristol Hotel is 52 km from Cardiff Airport (CWL), making it accessible for travelers arriving by air. The proximity to cultural venues like the Arnolfini and Watershed adds to its appeal for visitors interested in Bristol’s arts scene.

Tips

  • Book a room on a higher floor away from the waterfront if you prefer a quieter stay, as some rooms face busy restaurant areas.

Nice comfortable hotel with very friendly reception staff and the rooms are also very clean. Bed was super comfortable, I really liked the setup of this hotel. Everything was perfect
16.06.2025 Guest
Excellent location- near the waterfront and attractions (for me, the Arnolfini and Watershed, where the film festival was held), and restaurants, cafes, etc. I had a room on the 6th floor, away from the waterfront, and it was great- roomy and quiet. Will definitely book again!
01.06.2025 AnniAus
Very comfortable hotel right at the canals. Very close to a major restaurant and club area so a bit loud in the evening but windows are well insulated. Comfortable bed and well maintained bathroom. Staff was friendly. There is a large parking garage next to the hotel and 24 hour parking, when paid at the hotel, is £18.

Super friendly staff, good people watching spot outside, (weather permitting), coffee a little cold, cups need warming first.
23.11.2017 Christopher
Popped in for coffee and cake. Excellent Belgian Tart (that's the cake, I mean!). Great waterfront location.
01.11.2017 rumiana
We were there on Sunday just between breakfast and lunch, it was 11:15am. For welcome the waiter sad to us you have 20 min to ordered breakfast so few of us did it strait away. Half hour later we tried to order from the lunch menu but we were told at 12. Any way half of us left hungry and disappointed.
18.09.2017 Peter
A quiet blustery Sunday, but the room feels nice. Friendly service, nice food. Superior fish & chips and a nice glass of wine. Just what I had in mind!
02.09.2017 Kat
The food was good and the service was ok. Only grumble was the toilets.. of the 4 one was broken (and according to the sign had been for 6 weeks) one had no light and one had no loo roll. It was 7pm and the place was almost empty no excuse.

Brilliant bar with a nice atmosphere. Decor is nice, service is always very friendly. Worth going there.
12.12.2017 Liz
Great waterside bar. Serve food and coffee. Ideal for pre theatre drinks as very close by.
24.11.2017 Remi
The long lasting popular entry in Bristol. Perfect for a pint before a night out and very well located on the Harbourside, where the heart of the city is. It is very casual and they do gigs all the time so whatever your music taste you will be entertained. Oh and they also do amazing meals for the day.
04.11.2017 Belinda
This is one of my favourite places to come when in Bristol - a fantastic spot for people watching and it has fabulous food. On my most recent visit we had just got a carafe of wine, when the waitress stuck a reserved label on our table despite there being other free tables. Felt really uncomfortable and awkward about the time after that and decided not to stay there for dinner that day.

Great restaurant to celebrate my mothers 80th birthday. Plenty of room for a large group without being too big. View across the river was great. Staff were very polite, friendly and attentive, noticing the little things which is a treasure in itself.
Food was all delicious, reasonably priced too. Wide variety of drinks selection. Good musical playlist. A sophisticated meal out for sure. Highly recommend a visit and we will return!
06.12.2017 Lucky
Excellent service and lovely food in this smart restaurant. The bar on the ground floor downstairs serves food from a desperate menu, and has comfortable vintage furniture. The upstairs is very spacious and airy, with great views of the canal. Works well as a romantic dinner choice, or for a large group social dinner.
28.11.2017 Jakub
The main attraction here is the location. Beautiful views over the river (although the reflections from the low autumn sun were blinding!) and friendly staff. Food was pretty good, but nothing to rave about.
22.11.2017 Daniel
Torn a little on this place. The food was excellent (we had the Sunday roast beef, which was perfectly done for our tastes, and they even catered to one of our group preferring his beef well done), but unfortunately the service was incredibly slow. We didn't have starters, so fairly quickly ordered and had our mains, but then it took a long time to get desert menus, and 15 minutes later we had to ask if we could actually order them! The deserts eventually arrived 1hr and 40 minutes into our visit. Far too slow.
18.11.2017 Kostantinos
A really nice dinner with my family, nice selection of wines and really tasty specials of the day! Good price and good service, recommended for couples as the view is really romantic if you grab a table by the windows.
