This is our Best Value pick in Bristol. It suits city-break couples, business travellers and anyone who wants to walk to shops and restaurants from a quiet street.
With more than 12,000 reviews, its score rests on a very large number of stays. That makes it a low-risk choice if you dislike surprises. Family rooms and a gym are listed.
Skip it if you are hunting for the lowest rate. It cost about €211 a night on our reference dates, above both of our other Bristol picks.
Location and getting around
The address is Broad Street, in Bristol Old City. Guests rate the location 9.4 out of 10 and describe a central setting near the Old City, shops and restaurants on a quiet pedestrian street.
The SS Great Britain is about 1.2 km away, around 15 minutes on foot. Clifton Suspension Bridge is about 2.3 km, around 29 minutes, which is a long walk. Ashton Gate stadium is about 2.5 km, around 31 minutes, so for a match plan on public transport or a taxi.
These are straight-line estimates that have not been checked on foot. Real routes, with hills and river crossings, may take longer. Parking is not listed, so drivers should ask the hotel.
What guests say
Clayton Hotel Bristol City scores 8.6 out of 10 from 12,023 reviews.
Guests praise the location most often, especially the quiet pedestrian street. Staff are described as a friendly, professional team with a warm welcome and helpful service.
Breakfast gets mixed comments. Guests like the variety and the taste, but say some items run out or are slow to be replenished. Arriving earlier in the service may help.
Price compared with our other two Bristol picks
The reference price was about €211 a night, close to €422 for two nights. That is a reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, not a live quote. Check today's price for your dates.
Our budget pick, Victoria Square Hotel Clifton Village, was about €109 a night with 8.2 and three stars. Our Luxury pick, Moxy Bristol, was about €146 with 8.7 and four stars.
To be plain: on those dates our Luxury pick was cheaper than this one and scored slightly higher. Clayton earns its place on review volume and location, not price. Compare all three on your own dates, since the gap may change.
Why it made our top 3

Our Best Value slot weighs guest score, number of reviews and price. Its price was above the €158 sample median, so the review count did most of the work here.
