Reviews and Ratings
My stay here was incredibly disappointing. The location seemed promising, close to many attractions, but the room conditions were unacceptable. It was noisy, unclean, and I felt unsafe. I would highly recommend looking elsewhere as I left halfway through my booking even though I had paid in advance.
My experience at Hotel Bristol was quite mixed. While the friendly service from staff members made me feel welcomed, the noise level in the hotel was simply unbearable. The rooms were not up to par in terms of cleanliness and comfort, which was really disappointing. The location might be convenient for nightlife, but it comes at the cost of a peaceful stay.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. While the price was incredibly low and the location was prime with easy access to local attractions, the overall experience left much to be desired. The noise levels were unbearable due to poorly insulated walls, and the cleanliness of the rooms was questionable. It’s perfect for budget travelers but not ideal for those seeking comfort or a peaceful night's sleep.
The hotel has a great location near downtown and various attractions, making it convenient for exploring. However, the noise levels are excessive due to paper-thin walls and nearby bars, and the cleanliness leaves much to be desired. Overall, it may not be worth the stay unless improvements are made.
