Very comfortable stay with a good atmosphere
The staff at the pub were very friendly and the atmosphere was great. The room was as advertised, spacious with a comfy bed, Freeview TV, and ensuite which was a little snug but perfectly usable. The room got a little cold and I couldn't find a way to fully close the bathroom window but that didn't matter too much once I was under the duvet. I was warned that I was staying above a pub on a weekend even so, the noise never got too loud or disruptive, if anything it made my solo stay feel a little less solo. My only gripe was finding parking was a little challenging, I ended up parking behind the pub after getting a little lost down some one-way roads.

The staff and the room were absolutely lovely! The bed and ensuite bathroom were delightful after many days of travel. Provided me the much needed sleep and rest I needed to reset before the second leg of my trip around the U.K.!

Nice style and furnishings, all amenities I needed. Felt slightly wary arriving at night as access was an exterior side entrance with no working lighting. However I felt safe in the room and any noise from the pub downstairs was minimal. The room had signs of damp on some walls and the shower had mould patches. There were good quality tea and coffee options as well as toiletries. The bed was really comfy.
Overall a comfy and convenient stay.

Nice stay
It was a nice hotel room, what you would expect from staying above a pub on a Friday night. The only issue we had was the shower drain had not been cleaned properly but that was a quick fix. Other than that it was a really nice stay, bar staff were lovely and friendly as well.

A value for money clean bed for the night
The room was absolutely fine for one night's solo travel as I went to a friend's party. I didn't want to spend a fortune and the room was a good price in the right location. I hadn't expected tea and coffee making facilities, nor a hairdryer but was pleasantly surprised with both.
The bed was comfy and clean.
It's over a pub with a late license so there was a bit of noise but not enough to cause an issue. The bathroom was compact and apart from the mouldy seals in the shower it was clean. It did smell a bit damp/mouldy too.

Fine as a bed for the night - but it's a pub downstairs until midnight, so dont expect an early night. Quite shabby, smells damp, and grimy. Arrive late, sleep and leave early is my advice. That's what I did.

Did not like anything - we actually booked another hotel and stayed else where and came back in the morning to collect luggage as we had rush to go to an event in the evening. Would not recommend this property at all was very dirty and grimy - dust and mould throughout.

Great little find
Booked last minute as another hotel booking was messed up. Lady who showed us up to the room was lovely and helpful. The pub down stairs was a great little venue, my kinda pub! And the room was perfect.

Clean and comfortable. Access is through the rooftop terrace which is busy on nice days. Good location, very convenient for us. Although no parking available at the pub we easily found somewhere to park on nearby residential streets.

I like that the rooms are above a pub - very old English. The bed was also comfortable and clean. There is a beautiful park nearby.
The pub is obviously the priority for the property. The stairs to the rooms are in questionable condition - very steep and narrow wooden steps.
The shower does not drain well - have to turn off while showering to let water drain before continuing. There was mold in the shower. My booking did say a king bed but the bed in our room was not a king bed.
Not being able to check in until after 4 was an issue as there was no where to store luggage on the area.
Okay place for a couple of nights.

The room was very comfortable, I was warned about potential noise from the pub below on trivia night, still slept well despite this. Access via pub roof garden was unusual but security was good. Parking around the back was handy enough and free after hours plus for first 3 hours.

Not for everyone
Basic rooms above a noisy pub in a run down part of Bristol.
