Pensford Vacations from $235

A comfortable and well-equipped studio that makes a great base for a stay in Bristol.

It was mostly clean. But for the price being paid, the care and hospitality provided was ungenerous. They wouldn't even give me the paper thin slippers without paying.

Amazing bed and pillows, and lovely room.

Great location in a quiet street with no access for vehicles. Hotel had no parking but there's plenty of car parks closeby. Self check in/out was easy and a member of staff on hand if you needed help. Room was very clean, beds comfy, toiletries and hairdryer, everything you need for a relaxing stay.stay. Central location meant shops, theatres, restaurants and public transport were a short walk from the hotel. We had breakfast and dinner in the hotel restaurant which was nice enough but the service was very slow. Buffet breakfast weren't being refreshed and when you asked for anything it took so long that the rest of your food was cold. Everything was served on cold plates, which is my pet hate, both at breakfast and dinner. Why serve hot food on cold plates? All staff at the hotel were really nice and helpful and did their best. My only other gripe was there was no shaving/makeup mirror in the bathroom.

The hotel is set in the most beautiful surroundings, a tree heaven. The building is majestic and the interior decor is lovely with interesting sculptures. Even though it was very busy, the staff were always helpful. They seemed to enjoy working there. The food was consistently delicious. The rooms were large and well equipped. The only problem was that you needed a map to find your way round.
