Was reasonably priced for the area but still simple basics were missed and the top floor was far too hot. Two inches of window opening and a weak fan were not enough to prevent a terrible nights sleep.

This was a great location for us. It is only a 10 minute walk to the heart of downtown Bristol. We booked the family room. It offered plenty of space for my daughter and me. Around the corner is a GREAT sandwich shop called Sandwich Sandwiches. They close around 3pm so don't miss out on one of their freshly made masterpieces! 10 minutes away are lots of restaurant options for quick grab-and-go options. The hotel staff were awesome! I had a really long day of walking up and down hills and really needed an ice bath. The lady working the desk hooked me up and gave me a big bag of ice....very cool!

Good value room above a pub conveniently located

We stayed at Channings because it was convenient to visit family in Clifton. Rooms were fine for our needs, wifi was good enough for work-related video calls, continental breakfast was good. Staff were helpful. Since the rooms are above a bar, we were not surprised by typical noise from downstairs, and it did not affect our ability to rest and sleep.

Needed to be near Clifton and City centre so this ticked both boxes. The hotel/pub was comfortable with tea/coffee making facilities in the room which was replenished daily .Check in/out was easy and the staff were friendly and efficient. I was able to walk to Clifton village and Bristol city centre..As a female solo traveller I felt safe and would definitely use again

Dated and run down but didn't spoil our stay

The room was large and comfy but very very old and aged. Not sure anything but a lock of paint has been done to the rooms for 20 years plus! It didn't spoil our stay and I liked that the room was large, but have low expectations about the room! Walls also paper thin but quiet location on a Sunday night.

Comfortable but dated

The hotel is ok but needs a lot of TLC. It is functional but certainly don’t book if you are looking for a spacious room with a modern feel. The room we had was small and outdated with a double bed that was comfortable. We did use the restaurant downstairs for dinner, which was reasonably priced and food was good. Breakfast was your normal continental or cooked breakfast and again it was ok. Parking in the area is a nightmare and the hotel does not have any or even one space where you can off load your bags. We ended up parking about a 10 minute walk away.

We stayed here as 2 families: 3 adults and 4 children. The family rooms were spacious and equipped with comfortable beds. The breakfast was excellent value and very tasty. The building itself needs a little TLC, but that didn’t lessen our experience. All of the staff we encountered were very helpful and friendly. They helped us with looking after our bags and transport queries. They were even patient with our excited children. The location is nice and quiet. It is in a pub so there’s bound to be some noise at closing time, but that’s to be expected. There are several buses available nearby and it’s only a short walk to the suspension bridge & play park. We would definitely stay here again.

Renovation needed

This was the 2nd time we had stayed at Channings, it suited our needs perfectly as family live close by.My criticism is with regard to the general state of the decor in our room,(22). It was tired and in parts rather shabby. I am certain that there is a programme for renovation but I believe there needs to be a sense of urgency with this. Our room was cleaned well and the water fabulously hot, for which I thank you.Reception staff were friendly and helpful.
