Good base if you are going out and about in bristol. About a 20 minute walk from bristol temple meads station, 6 minute walk from bristol hippodrome. Really close to the aquarium and food places.

We are pleased to hear that our location served as a convenient base for your activities in Bristol, allowing you to easily access nearby attractions such as the aquarium and the Bristol Hippodrome.

Penny F. Couples - 4/10/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Double bed was two singles pushed together, which we've not had before. No tv remote - again, not had this before. Asked for extra coffee sachets but could only be offered decaf.

Natalia P. Couples - 4/9/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Everything looks new, modern, and clean. The bed and mattress were very comfortable, and we slept perfectly. The bathroom is a built-in plastic unit with plenty of space, which I think is a very practical solution. The WiFi was excellent with good speed. The staff were very friendly and always ready to help. We were given a hotel promo code for parking, but I would have preferred parking to be included.

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful experience at ibis Bristol Centre. We are delighted to hear that you found our hotel modern, well-located, and impeccably clean. It is gratifying to know that you enjoyed the comfort of our beds and the spaciousness of our bathrooms, as we strive to provide a relaxing environment for all our guests. We appreciate your kind words regarding our staff, who are indeed dedicated to offering friendly and helpful service. Your feedback about the parking arrangements has been duly noted. While we do offer a discount code for parking, we understand that some guests prefer different options. Your preferences are invaluable to us as we continually assess our services and offerings. Thank you once again for your positive feedback. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back on your next visit to Bristol. Kind regards, Diana, ibis Bristol Centre

Harriet W. Business - 4/9/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

The man on reception who checked me in (circa 4.45pm 07/04/26) was absolutely miserable and made me feel like I was inconveniencing him by checking in. He also forgot to charge me for the room. This was rectified later in the evening when my key card didn't work and the 2 women that sorted it out were lovely. Usually the staff are all very friendly and welcoming which made this experience so disappointing.
