Travelled with family
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was clean in places, but finer details such as the shower and corners of the room had debris and collected dirt. The noise was the main concern as the floor boards and doors created a lot of noise around the building. The doors do not have anti slam mechanisms, causing them to slam loudly whenever anyone uses them. Didn’t get much sleep. Parking should also be free for guests.

Friendly, helpful staff. Room was clean and functional with everything I needed. On-site parking was a bonus and a very good breakfast (huge sausage!). I'd been disappointed with my stays in other Clifton hotels so was very please to have found this one. I will stay again.

The hotel is very clean and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. We were that happy we booked in on our return journey from Devon. The hotel faces the Victoria Square Garden, with a short walk through the garden you’re into Clifton village. There’s restaurants and shops within walking distance. Also the bus stop is outside the hotel, where the No8 takes you into the city, and the return stop is also outside the hotel. I would recommend staying here !

Clean hotel, comfortable stay, good location for my needs. Shops and pubs within walking distance. Only criticism is the room I had could do with a bit of maintenance care; the light above the bed had a loose bulb, the shower head rail was loose on the wall and the plug didn’t fit the sink.

Great heritage hotel in good location for Clifton

Lovely traditional hotel in a great location. We would say that anyone with mobility issues may struggle with the flights of stairs in this heritage building. Rooms were spacious with nice views and bathroom was very nice.
