The location was acceptable.

The room was small and lacked sufficient drawer space. The window was unclean and obstructed the view I paid extra for. The prices at the bar were very high.

the setting is fine with a gorgeous view of the clifton suspension bridge! the restaurant offered excellent options for breakfast and dinner. two bars to choose from. staff shortages seemed apparent, but the staff still did their best to assist. i took advantage of the eco-friendly scheme and got a drink voucher in exchange for skipping housekeeping one night.

the bedside light dimmer switch was not effective.

The breakfast included fresh food options. Staff offered attentive service throughout. the onsite pub features a huge outdoor terrace. This terrace offers views of the bridge. i consider this terrace a great perk.
