Excellent location, really helpful staff- especially at the bar, and a great pool and steam room. Outstanding

Majestic Hotels Bristol
Great city centre location, but with nice, quiet rooms. Smart decor - it's a former Radisson hotel - and the staff were all friendly and welcoming.

The Z Hotel Bath
Exceptionally clean. Helpful staff. Great location. Despite being in a busy area I didn’t hear any noise. The rooms are tiny. Great for 1 but I would have struggled if I’d booked for a couple. I had a fab time and would definitely recommend for solo travellers

Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel
Not the best start when the fire alarm went off just after we'd arrived. Towels weren't changed until 4 pm. Long wait in restaurant. No sandwiches available on room service.
