the staff was very helpful and friendly and made us feel comfortable. Room was lovely, clean and had great facilities (it just took us a minute to work out the heater/air con) and the bar had a good selection of drinks. We would stay here again as it was a great location too.

The Bristol Hotel
The room was clean, the hotel itself was nice but the room was very basic and old fashioned! It also did not have a heating but they provided a portable heater which was sufficient.
