Clayton Hotel Bristol City
It is well positioned for eating, drinking and theatre visits. Very clean and the staff were very helpful and friendly. If I had to say a negative, then it would be the shower, which was very weak I thought. But overall, I would recommend the Clayton.

Bristol Grand Hotel By Sunday
Stayed for one night , was ideal close to shopping and bars. The hotels bed itself was ok but the pillows were paper thin and the bed was on wheels so you could feel yourself moving whilst leaning against the headboard but apart from this we had a peasant stay
