The room was fantastic and we slept incredibly well. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great facilities and able to use the pub for food and drink too . Easy access to the city and we also went for a run to the Clifton Downs - all great. We had a great stay and will be back - great value for money.
Really enjoyed our stay, everything was as we expected and very friendly staff. Would recommend.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff were very friendly but it was unclear that the rooms were above a pub. Check in was a little confusing to find and access to the rooms through the pub was closed off after hours. If the pub was closed you had to enter through the fire escape. There were no staff after hours in case anything happened. The bed was two twins pushed together so for two people it was a bit uncomfortable. The breakfast was delicious and the pub atmosphere on a Friday/Saturday night was fun with live music. Overall, the Wellington was enjoyable as a pub but not as comfortable for a weekend stay.
Very nice room well equipped bit of a trek up the stairs comfortable I would definitely stay here again. Food is good and reasonable priced.

I like every thing. But it is important to provide telephone in rooms. Especially if needs assistance of some stuff.?Like my case I needed an iron I have to come down on my night dress and dressing gown. Communication in rooms is important. Also try to find a carpet cleaner for the stairs. Otherwise is very pleasant place. Thanks
Parking available on street if pub car park full.
Friendly welcome on arrival and help with bags up stairs.
Room clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Music in pub below stopped at 11pm so we got a good night's sleep. Air conditioning in the room was very welcome as it was particularly hot when we stayed there.
Only negative really is the carpet up to the rooms is exceedingly dirty and has an unpleasant odour. Needs a good clean!
Pleasant friendly staff. Good sized room and bathroom for a couple of nights stay.
Breakfast was limited to cooked food only so felt restricted, no fruit, yoghurt or pastries options which would have been my preference and no fruit juice offered. Cooked food was good on Saturday morning but not so good and half portions on Sunday morning and not so well presented which was a shame.
A bit noisy in the evenings for us but food was good if a little slow to arrive on Friday evening.

Very Noisy due to entertainment in the bar area. No hot water for a shower
I've not stayed here before and was satisfied overall.
It is a pub so a little noisy when in the hotel room as it stays open until 12. However, given it is a pub this is to be expected and not really a criticism. (I booked it knowing it was a pub so my own fault!)
Facilities in the room were good - excellent shower and bathroom; tea and coffee-making equipment.
Breakfast was good, pricing seems similar to other hotels in the city.
There was some dust on surfaces in the room.
What really stands out here is the staff who were all very friendly and efficient. I can't imagine you get a personal tour of the room in a chain hotel!!
It was a lovely stay. We stayed for three nights and it was a lovely room. Didn’t hear the pub downstairs at all. Down the road is a dominos and a lovely Indian next door i reccomend it was great! We have breakfast served in the morning but something went wrong w the kitchen but it was still a lovely breakfast.
