Another Excellent stay at The Bristol Hotel

It was an excellent stay at the hotel. The staff are brilliant - so knowledgeable, helpful and polite - including catering, reception and domestic. Breakfast was superb. Loved the room and especially the location. It's why we always stay at The Bristol Hotel when in the city.

Hotel is in a great location. Within walking distance to Hippodrome and bars. The bar in the hotel is quiet and a lady playing the piano was a bonus as it was so relaxing. Our room overlooked the river, the only downside was the bars the otherside of the river did not close until after 2am so you could here the music.

Had an air conditioner but never got a comfortable temp. We had to switch between being hot and venting the window because the area was so loud at night it would wake us up.
