Lonely Planet "Has lots in its favour – riverside location, luxurious rooms, bistro – but it's pretty pricey and frequented by a businessy crowd... No car park, but there's an NCP next door." Full review
Time Out "This hotel is under the Doyle Collection umbrella, so there's plenty of class." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Concrete outside, chic inside, this smart harbourside hotel is the pick of the places to stay in the city centre, with elegant rooms and a great riverfront brasserie." Full review
Independent "Brutalism isn’t for everyone, but The Bristol, a beacon of 1960s architecture, is certainly the city’s most distinctive hotel – and it’s also the only one on the river (unless you count the Kyle Blue luxury hostel boat, but you’ll need sea legs for that)"
