The hotel offers rooms with great views on the higher floors, but there is no possibility to open the windows. The service was a mix of good and poor experiences. The location is very close to everything, although it can be crowded in the harbor area. The dining options may not cater well to vegetarians. Overall, a convenient location with some room for improvement.

The hotel offers stunning views of the Quayside area from the twin bedroom with a double bed, but the customer service was lacking in attentiveness.

The hotel offers a fantastic view of the Quayside area and is set up with a bathroom for a disabled user. The shower over setup is convenient for those on the lower floors. However, the service was lacking in terms of communication and knowledge about certain items. The location is superb, being in the city center close to many attractions. The options for dining, especially for vegetarians, could be improved. The facilities are adequate with some room for enhancement.

I had a fantastic stay at the hotel with an amazing view of Bristol. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had an excellent view over the harbor from the 16 floors. The service, unfortunately, was a letdown due to poor customer service at the reception desk. However, the hotel's location in the city center was perfect, right next to the river, with an exciting buzz as soon as I stepped out the front doors. The dining experience was good, with quality ingredients, although there were no eggs available, with good beers on tap. The facilities were adequate, but the service could use some improvement.
