    It is good to have work related meetings at this place while enjoying a nice coffee or tea. You can just go and have your breakfast while working on your laptop as they're offering free WiFi.

    Took my wife for a weekend away in Bristol, and chose Artist Residence. The service was lovely at check-in. We were blown away by the room - amazing size and decor. There was little to no noise from outside even though in city centre, Even had a brilliant bar just downstairs with a great selection and extremely hospitable bartenders. Cannot recommend this place enough and the only place I would want to stay when visiting Bristol.

    We had a lovely stay. Clean room, comfy bed, and loved the decor. The mini bar is well stocked with great products. Service at the bar was friendly and quick & the front desk had great recommendations for restaurants. The hotel is in a great location & highly recommend.

    We had a horrible stay, unfortunately. While our room was lovely and very cosy, the bar downstairs was incredibly noisy. There seemed to be a party going on, we could hear the bass thumping until well past midnight, and people chatting and drinking for much longer than that. Our floor was on the first floor above the bar, so we barely got any sleep. I wouldn't recommend staying there over the weekend, the bar is open until 1am Fri/Sat.
