This is centrally located (5 minutes from the Hippodrome) in bristol in a beautiful old warehouse that has been converted. Brilliant conversion keeping old exposed brickwork but marrying it up with loads of glass etc - really nicely done.

The rooms are great - VERY comfortable beds, a great great shower and everything spotlessly clean. think crisp white linen and beautiful wooden bed frame.

The food is fantastic. Breakfast outstanding - dinner menu brilliant - none of this is cheap but it is luxurious. Great bar area with huge leather sofas and a cocktail menu to die for - they also have a small courtyard area outside, lovely library for functions for an after dinner relaxing drink.

Obviously the wine list is fab; it's what they do, and the service is immaculate from sommalier to chambermaid.

The hotel is located so you can "do" the city centre including @ bristol (the science museum), the now trendy harbourside development, the imax cinema - if its still open - and it is only a stone's throw to the cathedral - brilliant traditional choir - go and sit in a 5.15 evensong every weekday if you can.

Expect to pay £150 for a double room for the night. Oooh so worth it if you are looking for a bit of luxury.

They are aiming for the luxury market - elegant classic yet quirky, unique and not stuffy or old-fashioned. The food is modern french-style bistro and top quality, the rooms are lovely without a hint of chintz.
