I cannot believe how small this room was. I have no idea how the photographer got the image he did which they have on their website! Our room mwas at the back and it was so hot at night. Others also complained about this the next morning. We had to pay extra to park the car - which I thought... More

The Rodney Hotel staff were extremely helpful and attentive throughout my stay. After a long flight I arrived early in to Bristol and the lovely receptionist ( Leah ) arranged for an early check in for me, helped me carry my luggage to my room and organised for a coffee to be brought up to my room. I was thrilled... More

Dear Mrs. Fallows, Thank you for taking the time to review the Rodney Hotel. As our usual arrival time is 2pm and your party had requested an early arrival, it is our policy for our reception staff to just double check that the rooms are ready. As check out time is 11am and the request was made for 12pm this... More

As my son has just started Bristol University my husband and I were keen to visit the city as we had heard such good things. My son recommended we stay in Clifton and we found the Rodney Hotel on line. I was a little concerned by some of the reviews I had seen on Trip Advisor but felt that the... More

Our stay at The Rodney was short, just an overnight stay this weekend. First impressions on entering the hotel were good. A well decorated and tastefully furnished entrance, reception and a quick peep into the bar and dining room confirmed the same. We parked right by the front door (at extra cost) and were greeted by extremely helpful Reception staff... More

Despite a last minute decision to go to Bristol and arriving at nearly 10pm, the welcome was warm and helpful and the receptionist found a parking bay for us. The room was not large but warm and adequate. Best bit was comiong in after a late dinner and having drinks in front a real fire. Good breakfast.

We had a very helpful receptionist and a warm welcome. However, this was let down by the state of the room. It was right at the top and showed, with peeling wallpaper in the window alcove, that there was a damp problem. The bathroom was tired and needs a complete renovation. If you are allocated a room at the top... More

Dear renardIsleworth, I am terribly sorry that you were disappointed by the standard of your room with us at the Rodney Hotel. I have looked in detail at the issue with the wall in the room you stayed in and it would appear that there are some problems with the adjoining wall of the property next door and so as... More

My partner and I stayed there for a weekend, with our two dogs. We had a comfortable and peaceful stay. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and well appointed. The breakfasts were certainly plentiful! All in all, a welcoming and pleasant place to stay.

This place really got me happy and angry in one go!
