Liked: Staff & service
Welcoming helpful staff. The rooms were clean enough and beds comfortable. Breakfast and service was good. Thankfully we got a parking space so this was not an issue for us. The hotel is in a nice part of Bristol and close to the sites we wanted to see so we didn’t need the car. I would consider staying there again.
Lack of a lift was inconvenient at times.
The staff is amazing, the hotel is 20 minutes on foot to the center with plenty of buses going thru.
The facility is deplorable. Stayed at a single non-ensuite and the shared shower they had barely dispensed water. I kid you not, there was barely a trickle. Have yet to see a hotel stayer who does not need a shower, it's a basic deliverable from an accommodation business. Rate is not cheap for the absence of this important facility and no amount of budget rate will ever make me want to stay at a hotel with no working shower. WON'T RECOMMEND.
The hotel was scaffolded, so I am assuming that they will be doing some much needed updates to the property. It was a lovely old property that was in dire need of a facelift. The floorboards above were squeaky and their were poorly repaired cracks in the ceilings and walls. On the other hand, the bed was clean and comfortable. Only one person attending the desk, and they leave at 10pm.
Really enjoyed my stay at the Washington. Easy walk from Clifton Downs station. Good bars and restaurants nearby. Easy trip into Bristol city centre. Young staff at the hotel were all helpful and friendly. Nice touch having fruit in room. I’d be happy to stay again.
