Rodney Hotel

Like home from home. Always a nice welcome, kind staff and delicious dessert!

I and my friend had a great short break. We each had a very comfortable single bedroom with ensuite. The staff were always very friendly, helpful and courteous. The location in Clifton is excellent and the main areas of Bristol are within easy walking distance. We had one evening meal in the restaurant and it was delicious. The only quibble was that the shower door could do with some attention at some point, a minor detail! Would definitely recommend.

Small room on top floor, not too convenient with all the stairs. Electric shower was not easy to use. But staff at lobby was friendly and helpful. Room service was not amazing, they changed linen after three days (if I remembered correctly) but didn’t clean the floor for you. They washed the mugs poorly and put them back (there were still tea marks). One day around midday, room service lady knocked the door, I told her to come back later because I was still getting ready, she told me but they finish at 12.30, so can only do 12.20 (I found it a bit bizarre that room service was done that early, you lose it if you don’t get out in the morning).

NOTE: This is a review of the Berkeley Square Hotel We were de-booked from the Rodney Hotel at short notice as they decided to close down for the period of our stay and placed us at the Berkeley Square Hotel at short notice. This is not in the part of Clifton that we needed but we accepted the change with such short notice to make alternative bookings. At check in we were informed that the restaurant, bar and lounge area were closed for preparation of a private fee paying new year party for non hotel residents (this is the New Year period). This meant that as a resident, we were excluded from all hotel amenities during our stay except our room. We protested but the hotel manager was intransignent and offered no concessions. In essence, residents were pushed to one side in favour of the ticket holding party goers. Later, I discovered that the bar and restaurant were only going to open up a week later, well after our departure. No concession was offered for this reduced service. On New Year's Eve I saw a note on the exit door to announce that there would be no room cleaning on New Year's Day. I complained but my complaint was dismissed due to staff shortages. I requested new towels be brought but never came. This could be a nice boutique style hotel but failed but failed on so many levels. I have become a frequent visitor to Bristol but I definitely won't return here.

Don’t book a single room if you are remotely claustrophobic. Tiny box room, en-suite was possibly larger than bed area. Mattress too soft, offered no back support. Room was hot and stuffy although it was mid October. I really did not enjoy my stay and won’t be back.

Just needed a few hours kip.

The Rodney was a convenient distance from the railway station. It was old but cared for. Perfect for my one night but would have been happy to stay longer if I needed to. Amber the waitress was great and I enjoyed the restaurant food

Perfect for Clifton and the city centre. The only improvement we would like is a lift.

Great location and friendly staff but it’s just too noisy for me. 6am bin collection across the road seemed to be endless- so unless you are an early riser be aware of road noise and external noise- everything else about the hotel was great 😊

Excellent hotel in a beautiful part of Bristol

Very nice hotel for the money, no aircon but had a fan and the room was comfortable. It’s clean and in good condition, service was freindly, parking is minimal outside the hotel but on street parking was perfectly fine.

They should state they only have 7 parking spaces. They should also be clear that if there are no spaces you have to park on the street (a mile away in my curcumstances) I was in room 30 up three flights of stairs. The room was so hit i left in the middle of the night.

Unfortunately, my room was on second(3rd in USA) floor. Bed was comfortable, bathroom shower facilities a bit tight for a big guy, mini frig didn't work. Otherwise, a delightful place to stay. Very convenient to cafes and pubs. Staff helpful and very friendly.

Great stay. Very comfortable hotel. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Good stay - great towels and really large room. Very convenient for Bristol. Parking limited and breakfast alright.

Nice small Boutique Hotel on great location

Nice small hotel right next door to the Suspension Bridge. Great restaurant inside, the ones nearby is also cool. Amazing breakfast as a huge plus to everything.

Great stay as always. I was up on the third floor in a single room, which is admittedly small, but it’s got everything I need. Clean, comfortable and well equipped. Complimentary fruit is a nice touch. No lift, but I’m an active 42 yr old, so no issue.

Hotel staff great, slightly annoyed that parking was an extra cost, only found out about it on arrival as nothing is mentioned on Hotels.com about the extra charge

Great location. Room ok but shower poor.
