Artist Residence Bristol

Was perfect for my need

The room was beautiful and really well appointed but there was an event hosted in the hotel until 4am and it was very loud so we couldn’t sleep. Staff seemed very overstretched so it was hard to find anyone to check-in/checkout or help with queries. No one manning the front desk so anyone could just wander in via the bar and go up to the rooms which felt unsafe

Great stay at a very well put together hotel with a personal touch

Loved it

Pet friendly, professional and always so welcoming. We love the artist residence and highly recommend it

Short: recommend for short lazy trips, particularly for couples. Less suitable for extended stays, particularly working holidays. Long: while overall lovely, there were multiple things which were a little off and dismissed as either quirkiness of an “artist hotel”, an old building, or “standard practice”. However, as some greatly experienced with the hotel industry, these are more purposeful misdirections. There were many, but a few include: - the hotel is not “reasonably” accessible, and the elevator does not serve all floors. Keep in mind if you have mobility issues or significant luggage. - difficult to work if you are taking a “remote working holiday”. The “laptop work surface” in the rooms are just tiny low coffee tables with trendy big chairs that you’ll have to hunch over and your back will hurt in short order. - their LOVELY library is not a dedicated space, as it gets rented out and therefore can’t always be used by the guests (an issue compounded by the issue noted above), - the bar adjacent space is an alternative workspace for the above, but it is basically in a corridor slave and has loud-ish music, making concentration and calls difficult.

Front desk attendant was rarely there. We needed to bang on the door on repeated occasions to be let in to the hotel

Great hotel. Best staff and love being able to take my dog….

Great stay. Very cool place. Friendly staff.

Always a great stay

We loved everything

Gorgeous little bouji hotel in a great location.

Great stay. Room more than ample with some nice amenities

Lovely stay! Enjoyed the quieter location but still easy enough to walk everywhere

We liked the eclectic, informal and quirky art and decor. Rooms were comfortable and well appointed. The minibar was thoughtfully stocked and snacks were available. Showers were hot and clean.Staff were very considerate ,helpful and attentive.

Lovely hotel in an interesting old building. Great staff and cocktails.

This place is lovely, with lots of lovely details and touches, lovely lighting and bedding, beautiful place to stay.

Hotel in an old historic property. Lots of quirky artifacts in the room which is great for travelers. Suite was spacious. Only comment is that suite 11 on the second floor was above the basement bar and the music was loud until midnight when it closed. Upside was that the music was pretty good and I had jet lag so not really an issue.

Cutest hotel

Gorgeous property and staff were 10/10! Immediate area around the property was run down and didn’t feel particularly safe at night - Would still book though. Couple of noisy bars close by, but music finished by 1am.
