The hotel is conveniently situated and has a spa which is why I booked it. My room was upgraded and nicely decorated and quirky; the ceiling must be about 30 ft high! The air con can be a bit noisy but otherwise quiet. The staff were friendly and helpful. The spa is small but that's quirky, too - used to be a vault and you can still see the brick tunnel and heavy doors. Didn't try any of the dining options so unable to comment. Very enjoyable stay.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When booking it says hotel comes with pool and spa etc. when checking in your asked if you want to use it and what time. when you arrive to use the spa your asked if you would like a locker. So you can understand my shock while leaving the spa after using it I was told to pay £10. No where while booking does it say you have to pay extra, only that the room and hotel include these amenities. Which if you have to pay extra after booking I feel as if I was miss sold. Espially as I had a nicer room booked at hotel du vin around the corner. The rest of the hotel needs some TLC of alreast a fresh coat of paint. And I had not once but twice get a new room key as it wouldn’t work. First time after using the spa and being in robe and slippers, second time late at night and having to wait for some one to come to reception.

Quirky building being an old bank with the spa down in the basement vaults. Good service, lovely decor, great nights sleep. Fabulously tasty breakfast. Brilliant location right in the old quarter of St Nicholas market. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely break away

From the moment we arrived the staff were very friendly and helpful, they upgraded our room to superior which was so lovely! They even helped take bags to our room and showed us the way there. I liked that someone stayed on reception late at night and asked for peoples room number and names for added security because it is in the middle of a busy area. The room was very clean, huge bed was super comfy, mini fridge stocked although we didn’t have anything but nice to have the option. We didn’t eat here because we’re vegan and there weren’t many options but that wasn’t a priority because Bristol is full of vegan restaurants. So the only negative thing is that very late at night you can hear people sorting the bins out very loudly, but it wasn’t really an issue. Also the maid we bumped into was really nice and friendly too and done a great job on the room. Everything was amazing and would definitely stay again.

Didn't even end up staying here. The way the staff on reception spoke to and treated us, we decided it wasn't for us. We stayed in the Bristol Hotel instead, which was a massive blessing in disguise because it was absolutely brilliant. Would highly recommend trying the Bristol before you book here.
