Very friendly helpful staff, slightly noisy rooms ( creaking floors) probably expected in an older building.
Quite a lot of noise between rooms (in my case at least). Restaurant / breakfast was very good though.
sarah.partnerNov 01, 2024 Staff were very friendly and helpful; breakfast was good and the cafetière in the room was a bonus. We’ll definitely stay again as great value for money when visiting our children at uni in Bristol.
Good value and great location
Good value hotel, especially considering the location. Room was clean with all the usual stuff. Good shower and there was undercover secure parking for an extra charge, which was well worth it. Down side; didn’t find the bed that comfortable, but that’s probably down to personal preference. Overall I’d definitely recommend
shower floor was dangerously slippy.no hand rail or seat
Parking is tough and the walls a bit thin but it was okay. Close to Clifton etc and service was good. Good value
Really friendly and helpful staff. Nice food in basement restaurant.
Bit of a trek up the hill from work, but competitive rate. Room needs a bit of a spruce up and there was no Aircon so very hot overnight. Ground coffee and cafetiere
kristina.partnerSep 03, 2024 Bathroom had Mold around shower, walls in bathroom were dusty. Faulty light in mirror. The first night I had a bad headache from travelling but couldn’t get my head down as banging music from bar till midnight which is normally ok if you don’t have a headache and just wanted a room that you could sleep in. This caused me to have a migraine that ruined my trip. If I knew it was above a bar I wouldn’t have booked it. That’s my error. The only good thing was the location. Safe to say will not be staying there again
Great staff and Breakfast would recommend.
Super value and a very nice breakfast. Also the best WiFi I’ve ever experienced in any hotel; puts a lot of bigger hotels and chains to shame - super fast. Staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent
sacha.partnerJul 28, 2024 The hotel is lovely; it just needs a modern carpet update.
Start with the positives, the outdoor / basement bar was very Mediterranean with a lovely feel to it. Nice to sit outside until late enjoying a few drinks. The choice was excellent too.
We were staying close to the Uni for my daughters graduation.
As for the rooms, we arrived to a dirty towel left in the shower and a glass by the foot of the door. There is no air conditioning which meant the room was very uncomfortable, the fan helpful but noisy. The hotel has a very tired feel to it and the tiny car park was stressful to say the least.
caitlin.family_with_childrenJun 26, 2024 The staff at Clifton Hotel were very nice and supportive - helpful with the needs of our baby, as well as giving us useful info on parking. They even placed us in a quieter area of the hotel without us asking.
The room was excellent for our needs, with the added bonus of a fridge, which was helpful for medication.
The standard of a bad hostel
The hotel's standard does not justify a £120 per night rate. It feels more like a hostel than a hotel. The staff have an unhelpful attitude and cannot give directions to the hidden car park. The process to obtain a parking key is inconvenient - you have to park, pay, and then go into reception to get a key, even though there's nowhere to park without it. They could easily buzz you in from the intercom and you could pay during check-in, but they seem to strictly adhere to the current process. The bathroom is in a bad state and needs refurbishment. I believe the rate should be no more than £50 per night.
The location of the hotel is great
Room was ok comfy beds, fruit, ground coffee. staff friendly. Nice breakfast. Only downside was the curtains in the room they were too small for the width of the window gaps both sides and didn’t meet in the middle so let in light I like a dark room
We had a nice 2 night stay here.
Helpful and friendly check-in with instructions as to where to park our car.... it was very safe in underground garage. Unfortunately the lift in the hotel wasn't working and although we are in no way incapacitated, it was a bit of a trudge to the 2nd floor and down a long corridor with heavy cases. the receptionist DID offer to help though.
Our room was quiet, warm and clean, with a comfortable bed, although the shower tray could have been a bit cleaner.
We had a meal in the cellar bar Racks one evening. The food was good but it was very noisy with a stag party in the adjoining room.
However, the Clifton is in a nice area and handy for visiting the bridge and other places of interest.
We would definitely stay there again.
The outside needs a bit of TLC.
allison.partnerMar 27, 2024 The room was warm but absolutely tiny. Did not even have a full size double bed. We also were not made away of the 12 a night parking charge. Staff were pleasant.
Lovely staff and hotel great location
