Future Inn Bristol

The hotel is modern with nice large rooms. However it’s let down by a few things. One of the lifts was out of order. The others were perhaps the slowest I’ve ever been in. The hotel advertises parking. When I arrived I was told it was 5 min walk away. Not exactly on-site. There is actually parking behind the hotel, but it is all zoned off as 15min drop off zone! Madness. In the end I was able to park at the hotel as I have a disabled pass. Lots of people have mobility issues, without necessarily having a disabled pass. Don’t advertise parking in site when it’s not. It’s misleading. Once inside the hotel I put my keys and a grinder (for prescribed medical cannabis) on the counter whilst I checked in. I then was sharply “told off” by the receptionist “there’s no smoking in the rooms you know!” I had to correct her. 1. I don’t smoke. Medicinal cannabis has to be used via a medical vaporiser. 2. I was planning to use the vape unit whilst out of the room. 3. How dare she make assumptions and challenge me over this. She made an immediate assumption that I was smoking weed illegally. I was not. 4. The new 2026 police guidelines tell officers to approach cannabis users with the assumption that they are using it legally on prescription. Perhaps your staff should do the same. I don’t appreciate having to justify the use of a prescribed medication to your staff and to be treated like I’m a criminal.

Didn’t have breakfast

Very tired room, damaged bed and toilet seat. Felt low budget l.. breakfast was nice.

Staff did not offer to help with heavy luggage when I was wearing hand brace and finger splint! I had to ask several people to help me! The shower is not enclosed and flooded the entire bathroom floor! The breakfast hostess was discourteous and unfriendly.

Great location with free, easy accessible parking. Good Breakfast.

Room was clean, well equipped staff were helpful and friendly. Perfect location and price for a family of four. Thank you 🙏

The staff kept our bags safe as we arrived early. The room was nice and clean,I don’t like the shower in the bath(bath was too high.) and cracked tiles in bathroom. Parking was great, we would stay again.

Bathroom issue: bath and shower control snapped off pre are arrival. Leaving a sharp screw threds as the only means of selection. Temperature knob hand completly snapped off with no screw remaining. Snapped off handle later found loose next to sink with no means of reattaching or use as threds strip. Booking request made through hotel.com app not received. Reconfirm of all requirements made via direct phone call to premises day before staying requirements. As no bathroom or cot would have been provided on arrival as requested via app not received. Good breakfast options friendly helpful atmosphere within the hotel.

Stayed here for a mid week break. We were attracted by the free car parking in city centre, which was very convenient. Room was spacious with air conditioning. They also had a water cooler in the corridor which was a god-send in this warm weather. There were a couple of minor shortcomings- chair in room had a large stain on seat, false economy using such cheap toilet paper . Also the WiFi was slow which meant it was difficult to hold virtual meetings since kept freezing and impossible to stream any movies. However overall we were pleased and would use again.

Amazing position, clean and comfortable but the breakfast was too expensive

Thr Hotel is in a brilliant location right next to the main shopping area but also within reasonable walking distance to other attractions. The front desk staff are efficient but didn't come across particularly pleasant, that's not to say they are rude, more professional than personal. The rooms are pretty standard fair, we had decent sleep on the large bed. It's possibly on the soft side for some but we managed. The shower is OK, ours wasn't rainfall but just the old fashion single head style, again it does the job. Everything else was OK, couple of positive points. Free water dispenser near the lift which was great, and in this area a small basket had what we presume were free apples. The lifts are OK if not a little slow,the self service breakfast is good. Limited options but plenty enough to satisfy most I'm sure. I can't complain as I thoroughly enjoyed mine. Big bonus is the free parking on the multistorey carpark next to the hotel, and they also give you an hour after check out. I would be happy to stay here again and recommend to family.

There are many good things about this hotel as I prefer to stay here when in Bristol. The room I had this time on the ground floor was an accessible room which was fine but it was tired as a lot of things were loose such as light fittings etc. The door kept getting stuck on uneven carpet and did not shut on self so had to double check it locked as I left it open once. The bathroom door kept flying open and hitting yet main door as not level. The bed sank a lot which was totally different from other rooms. A little disappointed this stay. Also had not booked breakfast as let it open as not sure time was leaving and was told £18 on the day which was more expensive? Does the food get better? A little cheeky putting on excess fee when food is there already. Still great location and parking

Room was big and clean, great location, free sercue parking next door, Breakfast was superb as were the staff. Highly recommended.

Very good location. Room spacious with a nice view. Parking very useful. Deducted one star as could see some dust is higher areas and vacuums could not reach between wardrobe and window so was quite dusty.

We had two nights for a family wedding. The hotel was very good in a central position. 15mins walk from the railway station, 25mins walk through the shopping centre to the Quay side and bars etc. The breakfast was great and better than most hotels with a greater selection. We would stay here again when returning to Bristol.

Room was clean, but really needed updating, especially bathroom. So not as good as expected. Staff were polite. Didn't eat in restaurant, but one plus, there was an ice bucket in the room so just had to go down to bar to fill. Also water available at recepetion.

If you like cheap hotels and enjoy windows that aren't soundproof, next to a busy road, beds that are saggy, bathrooms that are dirty, rooms that are in need of repair, and an approach that smells of urine. This is the hotel for you. If you don't like those things, try any other hotel ever. The selling point for the hotel is the parking, right next to Cabot Circus, but that is literally all it has going for it.

Used this hotel several times before, but not for a good few years. Happy to report it hasn't deteriorated since. Didn't use parking but saw at reception that they were still validating parking in Cabot Circus. Well located, clean, warm and comfortable. Nice staff.

Parking was included in price.and in secure parking next door to hotel

Great that parking is included and great central location. We had to leave at 4am and the very kind gentleman in reception walked my mother and I to the car park as we were a little nervous.
