6/10 Good

Clean rooms but surprised my room was not en suite, with a private bathroom up the corridor. Excellent staff. Dodgy door for access after 11pm. I was locked out and had to knock on the window. Also no breakfast available. Good beer in the pub itself.

A good place to stay .
Tim, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Avoid pub quiz night!

Pleasant, spacious room, friendly staff on arrival, however no parking available so had to park on the road outside. It was pub quiz night and my room was directly above the bar, so it was very noisy (suggest avoiding Tuesdays or arriving in time to get a parking space and joining in the quiz!). Other than this a pleasant stay.

Fab on a busy Pride weekend!

Really friendly at check in and throughout. Free parking a bonus. Room was great for what we needed with good facilities. Loved the fact there was a bar downstairs - very convenient for a nightcap. Not noisy at all. Room very hot (weather was extreme) and only one window to open but there was a fan. Would definitely stay again when in the area,

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommended

Friendly welcome, clean room (most important), comfortable bed (also important), nice view over park, excellent food and good choice of beers. Easy walk to Southmead hospital (saves a taxi fare, which was one of the reasons I chose it). What's not to like?

Comfortable family friendly

Nice family pub. It can be a bit noisy during pub open hours but my family were very comfortable and had a great nights sleep. The bar below sells nice selection of beers and the play area kept our daughter busy so we could relax.
