The Bristol Hotel - Harbour Exterior

About

The Bristol enjoys an unbeatable waterfront location in the heart of one of the UK’s most exciting cities.

Blending a modernist façade with an interior where boutique-style warmth and contemporary design pervade throughout, The Bristol hotel is all at once a wonderful leisure and business destination.

With its lively harbourside position, The Bristol hotel is at the heart of a thriving creative quarter, restaurant and nightlife scene and perfectly placed to access Bristol’s theatres, museums and art galleries; shopping in Cabot Circus, home to ninety shops including Harvey Nichols and House of Fraser; local attractions like the Clifton Suspension Bridge and SS Great Britain; and the city’s aerospace, engineering and financial services companies.

Popular among Bristolians and offering lively local ambience, the hotel’s River Grille offers relaxed harbourside dining for all occasions coupled with lovely harbourside views, while The Bristol’s Meetings and Events Centre is one of the largest and most comprehensive in the South West of England.

Rick’s at the Bristol stands as the newest feature along the riverfront hotel, capturing the essence, tastes, and vitality of the dynamic and thrilling city. The chic cocktail bar whisks guests to a relaxed and exotic destination, evoking images of a bygone era, intertwined with the soothing tones of jazz and enticing clink of ice in a whiskey glass. Open until the late hours from Wednesday through Sunday, Rick’s provides an ideal backdrop for savouring signature cocktails over long leisurely get-togethers.
