Nothing. Stay was superb, although very short.

Great British breakfast. Best of all, due to a late flight we didn't check in until 1am. We asked, more in hope than expectation, if we could have a drink from the bar? The two lady members of staff were happy to serve us a couple of drinks. Not many hotels do that these days. Well done Holiday inn Express Bristol!

Close to the city center

The rooms are dated Not enough plug sockets in the room, only 1 double socket We could hear outside noise from cars Our friends had a room situated at the front which they said was very noisy Room quite hot during the night made it difficult to sleep

Easy to find, right near the train station Comfy bed and pillows Great breakfast

Staff is not very friendly, as we leave at 3am we didn’t have breakfast ( we knew it and it was ok) but in Holiday Inn Express Birmingham City centre they offer us coffee to take away and some croissants

If you’re looking for a centrally located hotel near Bristol Temple Meads Station with clean rooms, and included breakfast, the Holiday Inn Express Bristol City Centre is a strong option—especially if you’re budgeting. However, if modern decor, soundproofing, or upgraded facilities matter to you, you may want to explore other alternatives or request quieter, higher-floor rooms when booking. We just spend the night because we were going to the airport and the bus it was just crossing the street

Nothing comes to mind.

The hotel is quite busy but once inside is really quiet and relaxing. The staff are very attentive and helpful plus the room are spotless and well maintained with little noise from the surrounding guests. The free breakfast is really very good and has a wide range of options and freshly cooked hot items. Ideally placed for access to Bristol Temple Meads Station and the bus to airport it is a real find and my only advice is, perhaps, to ask for a rear facing room as these are really quiet. The harbour is just a gentle 10 minutes stroll too.

Location was great as we needed to be at the train station early. Beds comfortable - air conditioning that actually worked and kept the room cool. Great breakfast!

Convenient

Well we kept getting only one towel after the room was made up. The breakfast was wonderful but the worker with the long loose blonde hair that was constantly being played with was a little off putting especially as she was dealing with topping up food in the buffet.

The property was central to our needs, the staff were friendly and professional and the breakfast was a wonderful start to the day

I’ve returned to this hotel after 5 years and I can clearly see that’s in need of a refresh.

Friendly and welcoming staff. The checkin was smooth and I like that breakfast is included, saving us the hassle of finding a place to eat in the morning.

The first member of staff I spoke to on arrival was quite perfunctory, and as the shift was changing over she passed us to the next group rather than just checking us in, which I did not appreciate. But once the next staff member took over, all the service from then on was great.

The location of the hotel is excellent for Bristol Temple Meads, so that was great; the room was clean and there were three mugs and glasses provided for the three of us (I have had issues with this in other hotels); beds were perfectly comfortable, and breakfast was better than anticipated.

Air con didn’t work despite staff doing their best to rectify the problem. Open window meant it was very noisy

Clean, well staffed, with excellent breakfast included. We liked having the bar to sit in during the evening. Good parking in the doorstep

WC on ground floor, off breakfast room, was out of order after breakfast I discovered. Therefore around noon, it wasn’t possible to have a drink from bar (non-alcoholic but it was a hot day).

Breakfast was good. Coffee machine not working for a while as spent coffee grinds box needed emptying.

The room was fine. Disappointment at breakfast as there was no bananas any mornings. When I have been at holiday Inns previously they always had bananas. Also juice glasses on the small side Sorry these comments should have been in next section
