The Best Value Hotel in Bristol

Our Café hotel has a vibrant atmosphere focusing on fun and indulgence. Its proximity to the city centre and all of the local attractions make it one of the most accessible places to stay in Bristol. The ideal location means you are only a 10 minutes walk to Bristol city centre where you can enjoy shopping in Broadmead or Cabot Circus, explore the harbourside and some of Bristol's facinating history, see the stunning Bristol Cathedral or take in some of the street art that makes up Bristol's unique creative landscape. A 5 minute walk in the opposite direction will find you in the heart of the beautiful Clifton Village where you can visit the famous Clifton Suspension Bridge and enjoy some stunning views or perhaps head out on a famly trip to Bristol Zoo, famous for its award-winning gardens and the variety of exotic and endangered animals it houses.
