The Washington

It was a pleasant 10-minute stroll into Clifton Village across the green, where we found excellent restaurants and pubs. There was a bus stop just round the corner for getting to and from Bristol city centre. The hotel staff were all very pleasant. Breakfast was good with quite a choice of food and was included in the price. We were lucky to get a space in the small car-park as there didn't seem anywhere else to leave the car long term.

The musty 'closed-up' smell in our room. We had a basement room which smelled quite musty, although it was clean. The window looked out onto the basement wall with light coming in from above so it was a little dark in the room.

Breakfast was good, only one egg with the full breakfast though.

The doors to the rooms are terrible. There was a large gap between the door and the floor, so light streams in all night (as the corridor lights are not switched off) and thus of course one can hear everything that takes place during the night as people walk/run past. Investing in doors that make the room somewhat more soundproof would be the best thing this establishment could do. Otherwise, would not recommend it to others, given the price.

Location and staff

Bit shabby

Friendly staff and good breakfast. Great location.

Needs an overall and room's on the ground floor for people with disabilities.. also the towel's were changed after one night, not very green friendly.
