Bathroom had Mold around shower, walls in bathroom were dusty. Faulty light in mirror. The first night I had a bad headache from travelling but couldn’t get my head down as banging music from bar till midnight which is normally ok if you don’t have a headache and just wanted a room that you could sleep in. This caused me to have a migraine that ruined my trip. If I knew it was above a bar I wouldn’t have booked it. That’s my error. The only good thing was the location. Safe to say will not be staying there again

Super value and a very nice breakfast. Also the best WiFi I’ve ever experienced in any hotel; puts a lot of bigger hotels and chains to shame - super fast. Staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent

Tired…
Start with the positives, the outdoor / basement bar was very Mediterranean with a lovely feel to it. Nice to sit outside until late enjoying a few drinks. The choice was excellent too. We were staying close to the Uni for my daughters graduation. As for the rooms, we arrived to a dirty towel left in the shower and a glass by the foot of the door. There is no air conditioning which meant the room was very uncomfortable, the fan helpful but noisy. The hotel has a very tired feel to it and the tiny car park was stressful to say the least.

The staff at Clifton Hotel were very nice and supportive - helpful with the needs of our baby, as well as giving us useful info on parking. They even placed us in a quieter area of the hotel without us asking. The room was excellent for our needs, with the added bonus of a fridge, which was helpful for medication.

The standard of a bad hostel
The hotel's standard does not justify a £120 per night rate. It feels more like a hostel than a hotel. The staff have an unhelpful attitude and cannot give directions to the hidden car park. The process to obtain a parking key is inconvenient - you have to park, pay, and then go into reception to get a key, even though there's nowhere to park without it. They could easily buzz you in from the intercom and you could pay during check-in, but they seem to strictly adhere to the current process. The bathroom is in a bad state and needs refurbishment. I believe the rate should be no more than £50 per night.

Nice hotel in good area.
We had a nice 2 night stay here. Helpful and friendly check-in with instructions as to where to park our car.... it was very safe in underground garage. Unfortunately the lift in the hotel wasn't working and although we are in no way incapacitated, it was a bit of a trudge to the 2nd floor and down a long corridor with heavy cases. the receptionist DID offer to help though. Our room was quiet, warm and clean, with a comfortable bed, although the shower tray could have been a bit cleaner. We had a meal in the cellar bar Racks one evening. The food was good but it was very noisy with a stag party in the adjoining room. However, the Clifton is in a nice area and handy for visiting the bridge and other places of interest. We would definitely stay there again. The outside needs a bit of TLC.
