Monmouthshire Vacations & Trips from $1,649

We attended a meeting opposite where the rooms were twice the price of The Lodge. It was an unexpected delight.

Great Hotel, very busy at breakfast.

Unsalted butter in the restaurant tastes like Lard, could do with a choice. Breakfast really good but very expensive, as were the bar prices.

Avon Gorge by Hotel du Vin has a fabulous location. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. It is an old building, however, and suffers some limitations from that. We chose a room which, basically, was not as "special" as we had hoped it would be, and as we had believed from the description. It was smaller that we expected, with a Gorge View as advertised, but I guess we had hoped for something closer to a panoramic view. The heating was difficult to control and the room was quite a lot warmer than we had hoped, leading to a less restful night. Nevertheless, we had a lovely time, and were able to walk around the Clifton Suspension Bridge, and to walk into the harbourside area of the city.

I stated for 3 nights for a conference at the university up the hill (U of Bristol). Excellent location, practically on campus. Beautiful well-kept hotel, top notch restaurant, very quiet, comfortable room with an immaculate, luxurious bathroom (including great L’Occitane toiletries!), and excellent wifi! A shout out to all the perfect, helpful staff who made my stay memorable with their kindness. I recommend eating takeout cake from Ahh Toots (around the corner) on the hotel’s beautiful enclosed patio. Made my work trip feel like a relaxing vacation!
