Hotels & Bed & Breakfasts in Bristol
Bristol is a busy metropolitan city ideal for a weekend away or short break. For ideas on things to do in the area go to Tourist Attractions in Bristol
If you are looking for accommodation in the in the centre of Bristol, the City Inn, Bristol is an ideal location. It is close to Temple Quay and just 2 minutes on foot away from Bristol Temple Meads railway station.
The hotel is modern and contemporary. The rooms are stylish with a host of features to make your stay as comfortable as possible. An example of the attention to detail offered in City Inns hotels is the bathroom mirror – it is heated so that it does not steam up after a bath or shower.
In this hotel, eating in the restaurant is highly recommended. Dine at the City Café and you can enjoy fresh, seasonal dishes, al fresco dining, extensive vegetarian options and imaginative wine lists in cool surroundings with a warm atmosphere.
If you become a fan of delicious food served in the restaurant, remember to ask for a copy of The City Café Cookbook. This recipe book presents a selection of dishes created by City Café chefs, past and present.
Within the hotel, there is a 24 hour workout room which is exclusively available to hotel guests. There is cardiovascular equipment and a multi gym.
Parking can be tricky in Bristol but the City Inn has its own car park and, if that is full, there is a public car park very close by. This car park is free overnight.
If you are travelling to Bristol for a flight, the Holiday Inn at Bristol airport is ideally located. It is the only hotel at Bristol International Airport and features 80 modern rooms all equipped with an en-suite bathroom, direct dial telephone, hairdryer, tea/coffee making facilities and colour TV with in-house movies and internet connection.
Although the location of the hotel is rural, the hotel is within easy access of the M4, M% and M32 motorways.
Park ‘n’ Fly packages which included one night’s accommodation and parking are available.
If you prefer to stay outside the City Centre, then consider two Bed & Breakfasts just outside Bristol. The first is Sunnyside Guest House in Yate. Bed & Breakfast is offered (2007) at around £29.50 per person per night with breakfast being served from 7.30 – 9.00 am.
Bristol Parkway Station is 15 minutes away by car there is a rail link from Yate into City.
As well as being close to Bristol, Sunnyside is close to the Cotswolds and could provide a good base for exploring further afield.
Kim and Kevin Green offer a warm welcome at Greenfields B&B in the market town of Keynsham. Greenfields is ideal if you would like to visit both Bristol and Bath. It is situated on the A4 between the two cities.
A complimentary full English Breakfast is included in the price of the room and is served in the pleasant and airy breakfast room.
During the summer month, the double French doors in the breakfast room can be opened to a beautiful view of the garden and open fields.
Once you have stayed at one of these Bed & Breakfasts or hotels, please contact us with your comments. We would also be pleased to hear of any other accommodation in or near Bristol which you think we should include on Local Service Guide.
