Bristol Grand Hotel By Sunday
Great location for exploring the city , room was clean and warm (good heating). Bed comfortable. Walls paper thin tho , so had to listen to some party goers loud conversations at 3am. But we were there early Dec when the Christmas parties had kicked off, so bound to happen. Hotel Staff were friendly ...
