"I stayed at the Victoria Square hotel for two nights. What a lovely hotel in a wonderful park setting in the heart of Clifton.Staff very friendly and helpful and a first class breakfast in the morning. I thoroughly recommend a visit to this hotel. David R.. Oxford"

"Great room. Very comfortable and a lovely bar"

"Hotel is close to Bristol city center and lots of local restaurant nearby just 10, 15 mins walk also not far from clifton 20-25 mins walk which is main part for me. No need to drive around unless you really want to. My room was on ground floor so could hear sound outside at night and in morning. Bathroom is very tiny and small. 1 person can bare fit. Staff were really helpful and nice. Room was clean and tidy however could smell as its located on ground floor. Limited parking available on rear of the hotel and its £12 per night which is quite expensive. Overall its good hotel center located for 1,2 night and would not recommend for longer stay. Thanks"

"Always a dependable hotel to stay in. Room was quite snug for the price but did the job. Always helpful staff and clean rooms."

"I can't fault this hotel or the staff we met. We had a great night's sleep in a very comfortable bed. Lovely touches like a mini bar with complimentary soft drinks. It is in a central location, and apart from the fact it doesn't have a car park it is an ideal place to stay. A special shout out to Jenny at reception who went out of her way to be helpful."

"On arrival were greeted by a friendly man on reception and check in was smooth. We were in room 105. The room was cleaned to a satisfactory level. A couple of hairs were found on the pillow cases. The bathroom was clean but the quality of the toilet roll was the worst I’ve ever experienced. The only real issue we had with the room was the mattress. It needs throwing away and replacing. There was a huge dip in the middle of the mattress and as a heavily pregnant woman, I couldn’t get comfortable and had an awful nights sleep. Breakfast was a very basic continental breakfast but it served its purpose and filled a hole! I would return here, however I would make sure to inspect the mattress before bedtime in order to be able to speak to reception before it’s too late. And I would take my own toilet roll!"

"Hotel is in an excellent location.It is surrounded by restaurants and cafes and it is within an easy 5 min walk of the hippodrome theatre. A decent size secure carpark is across a small, quiet road from the hotel. The room was large and clean. The breakfast was good- plenty of choice and easy to find a table. Staff were pleasant and helpful. It is a large hotel but only has 2 lifts which state they hold 8 but were full with 5 in. It was a very busy weekend as the Bristol half marathon was on the Sunday but only one of the lifts were working so there were always long waits for the lift. We were on the 3rd floor and due to the hotel’s location could hear music and people until after midnight. The noise wasn’t particularly loud but I could see some guests having an issue with it. "

"Enjoyed our overnight stay in the Celtic Manor and had time to recharge our batteries. The male member of staff at Reception was exceptional! (Sorry we didn't make a note of his name.) He was particularly welcoming, helpful and informative about all amenities available and booked all the little extras for us. The staff at 'The Grill' were also great, where we enjoyed a tasty meal in a relaxing atmosphere. Additionally, the breakfast offered plenty of variety the following morning. We opted to pay extra for a room with a balcony, however, although it was clean, comfortable and looked nice enough, on close inspection it needed a make-over and a lot of TLC. The balcony was shoddy and the door leading out to it didn't close properly so it was draughty. However, the worst experience for us during this visit was the pool and spa. Despite booking our 'slot', it was full to the brim. There were adults and children diving in to the pool even though there were lifeguards on duty and signs to discourage this. The steam room and jacuzzi / hot tubs were also jammed packed, and so were impossible to sample and enjoy. This aspect was disappointing and unacceptable."

"Staff were fab and friendly Hotel was lovely Room was lovely, however... The beds are so hard, its like sleeping in a slab of concrete and the air con was a massive noise box on the floor. Breakfast was delicious and the free flowing nutella was lovely."
