Top Clifton Observatory Hotel Reviews

Majestic Hotels Bristol

10/10 Excellent

"Really enjoyed the stay, great room and location, brilliant staff"

Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The best hotel in Bristol."

Delta Hotels by Marriott Bristol City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious room & a great breakfast"

ibis Bristol Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were really helpful and accommodating, stayed for pre birthday celebrations and had an amazing time, thank you!!"

Clifton Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall, we had a good stay at the Clifton Hotel. The room was comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The bathroom had been cleaned, but there were still some stains on the toilet, so I think a little more attention to detail with the cleaning would be helpful. The room also didn’t have a fridge, which would have been useful. Unfortunately, the hotel car park was full when we arrived, so we had to park on the street nearby. Despite these small issues, we had a pleasant stay overall and the hotel was good for our trip."

Rodney Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location. Staff and breakfast excellent. Room was a bit pokey and in the basement but no complaints. Quiet and parking right in front."

No 64 Georgian House - By Clifton Short Lets

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect base for a cycling weekend. Nice restaurants around and place not far from major attractions. Shared bathrooom was spotless. Good lounge and kitchen facilities. Perhaps a dedicated space for keeping bycicles (e.g., bike shed at the front would be useful 😉). I had a good, quiet stay."

Hotwells Your Apartment

8/10 Good

"Small clean room cosy and warm bus stop right outside the apartments but very noisy you can hear every move of other residents in the property"

Victoria Square Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel consists of two nice, old/character properties which are well-positioned for Clifton. They are well-maintained and clean. It's good that the property has it's own car park within the grounds for around a dozen cars, although I'm not sure why they would charge guests £9 per night to use it. The staff at breakfast were super and couldn't do enough, and the breakfast itself was good quality / choices. Our Check-in was a mixed experience, as they allocated us a room right at the top of the property (no lift!), which it turned out was an inferior room to the one we had booked. When we came back down to point this out, they did ultimately let us have the 'only room left', which was the Large Double Room we had reserved. Thought it a bit odd that they'd allocated the wrong room and then suddenly 'found' a room in an otherwise full hotel!"
