Best Hotels near Newquay Road Playpark, Bristol

A two night stay for two couples meeting at Bristol for a weekend getaway Stay could have been better in all areas Having not known what time we would arrive and not knowing the area we had pre-booked a table for evening meal at Chophouse the restaurant attached to the hotel, we thought this to be the easiest option. Very quiet in both the bar and restaurant area we expected a first class service … unfortunately not what we got! Cocktails took over 20 minutes to make which was really disappointing (they were nice enough when they finally arrived) We went through to the restaurant offered a set menu and normal menu Two chops were ordered from the set menu which ironically (chophouse) were not available a burger and fish off the main menu were also ordered, the fish resembling a sprat was quite disappointing, the burger was good - thank goodness the company was fantastic as the food didn’t surpass much more than ok. Having experienced the evening bar and the slow service well the breakfast experience downstairs was something else!! 2 mornings for breakfast quite a contrast too, Saturday morning was quite good, everything was available, cereal, juices, selection of breads, pots of yogurt and granola, smoked salmon and hot food we had breakfast at 9.00am, the restaurant Sunday we had breakfast at 9.30am, what a contrast, tables hadn’t been cleared (there were several empty and in this state) we cleared a table ourselves and had to request for a waitress to clean and wipe the table down. Where we had placed the previous used plates and cups , were left there and not cleared by the waitress. We went to the service area and it was a nightmare; throughout the time we were there the service was poor with lack of food displays and lack of cutlery and bowls, there was just chaos and what seemed like one guy working and trying to keep the place moving. In contrast to the day before, juices were running out, no available cereal bowls, no bread for toasting, no yoghurt granolas, at one point no mugs or glasses to drink from and the hot food ran out with something constantly being waited on. There were two waitresses that were a waste of time, they needed to be managed and to be productive, they had no idea about offering great service …. When we commented to the guy about being busy he said this is nothing 😳 The room was on the first floor at the rear, quiet and a comfortable bed. However, the door didn’t shut properly and had to be pulled / pushed hard to ensure was shut. The bathroom was ok however the shower tray filled and you were standing in water that took an eternity to drain away

Stayed as at an event in Bristol. Declined to have breakfast @ £18 which I felt was way over the top. Chose to nip over the road to Costa and for what I wanted it was far more value for money. Car parking was also dear @ £14/night but after researching elsewhere it seems it was competitive. Have stayed at this Hotel many times over the last 30 years and it is still outstanding

Good basic facilities and a great breakfast. The guest house is in the centre of the club and bar area of Bristol, so lots of noise all night. There is no parking and you have to leave the car in a multi story car park about a ten minute walk away. Which cost £36 for my weekend. No facilities for disabled, but does have a small lift. No view except the back of other buildings. I was arriving about 9.00pm and informed reception before hand. I was hot, tired and sticky. The girl manning the desk at night was really miserable handed me my keys and told me that my breakfast wasn’t included and I would have to pay £13 for each meal and left me wondering what the hell was going on. I was too tired to argue and went to my room. It was a small double that overlooked a grubby, dark courtyard. Another building was right in front of me with windows looking straight into mine. No wardrobe as room was too small. Good breakfast with great waiters. Another miserable girl behind the counter, who wouldn’t speak. The day staff were lovely though. All in all, a tiring weekend with very little sleep due to the noise and heat. The two nights cost me £232.20 and no, I didn’t have to pay extra for breakfast. Would I stay again. NO!

We had a wonderful time during our stay, the view overlooking the harbour was beautiful and the staff were amazingly helpful and very professional, making our trip feel all the more special. Adam, Bea, Daniel and Rosabel from reception went above and beyond for us. Will 100% stay again and would recommend others to do the same!

Nice hotel, the windows and curtains were good enough to make the room suitably dark and quiet for a comfortable night's sleep. Staff were friendly, and the luggage storage worked well.

Incredible staff. That’s the first thing to stay, they really make the difference. The hotel itself is very on trend, you get a free cocktail on arrival, and the breakfast which isn’t expensive, is good. The room is very comfy and well appointed, the bed was comfortable and the shower room, although small, was more than adequate. It’s all about the staff though, incredible service.

Hotel located in the town center and closed to the famous historic spots. Within 10 minutes walk and you could do shopping, sightseeing and dinning whatever you like. Hotel breakfast is great with vary choices of food. Additional a large car parking facility and supermarket just next to the hotel. It’s make your trip more convenient. Must book again if I go to Bath next time.

The location of the hotel was amazing, right at the centre, quick access for shopping and about 6mins walk from railway and bus station. The staff was super friendly, they greet you everytime you enter the hotel. It feels very homely! Will definitely visit again if I visit bath :)

Honestly, the team here at the Mercure have gone above and beyond. I’m here for a business trip as I’m attending a trade show within the hotel and I have found the whole experience brilliant. I checked into my room but my toilet had a bit of an overexcited flush, the maintenance team came out to rectify but they upgraded my room without hesitation. I mentioned that I would be back here in 4 days time to stay due to my sister getting married around the corner and when I say that they are pulling out all the stops for her for that evening before the wedding, that isn’t even the half of it. I can’t say too much incase she reads this review beforehand but thank you a million times to Mahin and Stan for everything you’re doing for her. You’re making a Big Sister and her favourite person very happy! We’ll definitely be back!

Comfy well cleaned room and bathroom. Lacks a fridge which would have been welcome. Decent gym and the swimming pool is a great way to stay active away from home. Staff all good and seem well trained and personable Restaurant is poor for choice, quality and expensive- just parted with nearly £6 for a pint followed by £17 for a risotto which had nearly zero flavour served so fast it must’ve been microwaved. Breakfasts are good with decent hot and cold choice
