The Channings

The location is good for Bristol, the hotel room was at the top of the building, very poor ventilation and although a fan was supplied, the room was very hot. Hotel room was very basic. We didn’t have the breakfast ,coffee was just a pot of filter coffee. The room seemed quite shabby, although was clean and the mattress comfortable.

Was reasonably priced for the area but still simple basics were missed and the top floor was far too hot. Two inches of window opening and a weak fan were not enough to prevent a terrible nights sleep.

This was a great location for us. It is only a 10 minute walk to the heart of downtown Bristol. We booked the family room. It offered plenty of space for my daughter and me. Around the corner is a GREAT sandwich shop called Sandwich Sandwiches. They close around 3pm so don't miss out on one of their freshly made masterpieces! 10 minutes away are lots of restaurant options for quick grab-and-go options. The hotel staff were awesome! I had a really long day of walking up and down hills and really needed an ice bath. The lady working the desk hooked me up and gave me a big bag of ice....very cool!

Good value room above a pub conveniently located

We stayed at Channings because it was convenient to visit family in Clifton. Rooms were fine for our needs, wifi was good enough for work-related video calls, continental breakfast was good. Staff were helpful. Since the rooms are above a bar, we were not surprised by typical noise from downstairs, and it did not affect our ability to rest and sleep.

Was Ok

Arrived and waited arou d 10-15 minutes for check in member of staff was looking to see where the lady was & unable to locate her. Was advised we were on the top floor....attic room was average size, very warm window opened slighly, view (brick wall) not great. Fan too small for room, tea/coffee etc supplied no option for cows milk or alternative. Shower was nice, water pressure was good. Was located right by the door on top floor so heard the door open everytime & people walking pass. Had food in restaurant was warm not hot.

Needed to be near Clifton and City centre so this ticked both boxes. The hotel/pub was comfortable with tea/coffee making facilities in the room which was replenished daily .Check in/out was easy and the staff were friendly and efficient. I was able to walk to Clifton village and Bristol city centre..As a female solo traveller I felt safe and would definitely use again
