After one night at the Bristol Hotel<\/a> to spend my D$, I extended my stay by a couple of nights at the Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel<\/a>. The hotel has a good reputation, and it’s not every day that you see a hotel call itself Royal<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hotel is on the other side of the canal, opposite to the Bristol Hotel. It’s a more lively area with quite a few shops and restaurants nearby. It’s a lovely weekend and the park in front attracts many sunbathers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hotel boasts its Victorian style, and has been welcoming guests for 150 years. The design of its public areas is very carefully curated to reflect its history and elegance, and I can’t say I’m not impressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although it’s definitely not at that level, the hotel reminds me of Hotel Bristol in Vienna<\/a> in a lot of ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately the hotel is fully booked, and I was only given one-level upgrade to a Superior Room. Some guest rooms are located in the Royal Wing<\/em>, but from what I can tell it’s not really physically separated or come with additional perks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The room is okay, just what you’d expect from a standard Marriott hotel, and there isn’t really anything Royal <\/em>about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The room is back facing and very quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Breakfast is served in the restaurant, which is complimentary for Platinum members and above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pastry offering is excellent – the croissants and pains au chocolat are very fresh, and amongst the best quality ones that I’ve had at any hotel for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, only black coffee is free and you’d have to pay for Cappuccino etc, which is quite stingy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m not a fan of hotel gyms in general, but this one is quite nicely decorated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some reviews I read online spoke very highly of this property, which almost made it an attraction in Bristol itself. I also agree it’s a good one, but nothing outstanding – it’s possibly one of the top accommodation choices in the city, however don’t be fooled by the Royal <\/em>name, as it’s still just a four-star hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
