Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel
This hotel was amazing! We received a very warm welcome and were checked in early as a room was ready. The hotel was very clean and pristine. The room was huge and clean with all the amenities we needed. We wanted to stay in to enjoy the hotel.

ibis Bristol Centre
Good basic hotel. Card only payments is annoying but the room itself was clean and just right for a weekend away. Would choose a different hotel for a longer stay as I would prefer a larger bed after 2 or 3 nights.
