I sent an email to the property stating the time of my arrival. I never got a response. When i arrived at the property it was closed with no reception available to check me in. At midnight, i now had to find another hotel so i won't be stranded on the streets. The number they also provided is saying that it is not valid. I emailed over and over again and still no reply from them.

Nice stay

It was a nice hotel room, what you would expect from staying above a pub on a Friday night. The only issue we had was the shower drain had not been cleaned properly but that was a quick fix. Other than that it was a really nice stay, bar staff were lovely and friendly as well.

The staff and the room were absolutely lovely! The bed and ensuite bathroom were delightful after many days of travel. Provided me the much needed sleep and rest I needed to reset before the second leg of my trip around the U.K.!

Perfect stay

**Review of The Dark Horse Pub Hotel, Bristol** I stayed at The Dark Horse Pub Hotel in Bristol from the 10th to the 11th of July in a double room, booked through Hotels.com. The booking process was easy, and the check-in experience was fantastic, thanks to the friendly and accommodating staff. Our room was clean and comfortable, with good quality TV and toiletries. However, the Wi-Fi was not working, and I had poor mobile signal. The bathroom was pleasant and functional. The pub downstairs offered a great selection of drinks, and the hotel’s location on the outskirts of central Bristol was convenient, with shops and food places nearby. We drove to the hotel and used taxi services to attend an event in Bristol, finding the location accessible. There was some noise from the street and the pub, which was expected, but it wasn’t disturbing. The checkout process was seamless and contactless, as we left the key in the door upon departure. Overall, our stay at The Dark Horse Pub Hotel was fantastic. We encountered no issues and would happily stay here again if we are in Bristol. Highly recommended for its charm and convenience.

The room is dirty with damp and cracks on the walls. No contact number to complain or speak to anyone. We didn’t stay due to the state of the room.

Avoid

Would not recommend. There was no hot water to the bathroom sink and hand to use the shower to fill the sink. The shower tiles and door was filthy with black mould. I was informed on check in that the pub quiz was on till 10 and music till 11. It was very loud till then. Don’t stay here is you want an early night. Understand this is above a pub. There was parking to the rear on a road but the area felt very unsafe. It was also lovely to find a used make up remover pad next to the bed. See photo

Great little find

Booked last minute as another hotel booking was messed up. Lady who showed us up to the room was lovely and helpful. The pub down stairs was a great little venue, my kinda pub! And the room was perfect.
