Get a gorge view room. Gorge is not the bristolian slang term for gorgeous in this sense, although it could be used to describe the view.

Lovely 2 night stay. Super Comfy bed which is a plus for those with a bad back or hip..slept so well. Spacious room even though we booked the smallest category. Wonderful rain shower. L'Occitane branded hand wash, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Quiet air con so was able to keep on all night without it being noisy. Window opens ever so slightly so lovely breeze comes in. We were there when the weather was +30 degrees celcuis. Great views of the Gorge and Clifton Bridge from the bar /pub terrace! Staff friendly and will helpful to ensure you have a pleasant stay. Lovely ambience in the hotel. Quiet at night. Didn't hear any noise in the morning, not even from the house maids. They have certain number of parking permits for those with a car or there's paid parking £12 at the back of the hotel. Free parking after 9pm ON Saturday on Monday 9am. Clifton is a lovely area to stay away from the city noise yet so close to get into the city. Several buses serve the city or a short taxi ride. Highly recommend.
