Best Western Bristol North The Gables Hotel

The bedrooms are really nice great location just outside of Bristol .. The food is good quality although very small portions for evening dinner. As a converse the breakfast is good self serve buffet .. staff are so friendly and cannot do enough for you. The staff who clean and tend the rooms do an amazing job ..! Would totally recommend if to stay two or three nights. less

The best thing about the Hotel were the staff. The worst thing was the breakfast, which although comprised good quality food was always cold. Upon arrival the hotel looked tired on the outside and the rooms needed some TLC. less

Pleasant stay overall good value for money, no complaints and helped by a big room although we did have to remind the room next door to keep noise to minimum ( no issues after that). Location suited our needs and bar service adequate for a two night stay. Overall happy and would stay again less

Useful location hand to the M5. Plenty of parking space. Good base for getting into Bristol, Gloucester, Cheltenham & Gloucestershire airport. Adequate facilities without being fussy, pleasant helpful staff & comfortable room. less

We stopped at The Gables Hotel for a second time primarily because of it's convenience for visiting WWT Slimbridge the following day. As on our first visit the pluses include a large free car park, a friendly & efficient check-in and a good-sized room with tea & coffee making facilities, a good-sized bed and a powerful & hot over-the-bath shower. The wi-fi was free and worked well. Our room this time was on the ground floor at the back of the hotel and this meant that we experienced loud lorry noise just after 7am, presumably for deliveries. We were also disturbed by countless doors banging in the hotel corridor around this time so this combination effectively curtailed our good night's sleep which was disappointing. Should we stay again we will ask for an upper floor room at the front of the hotel to try to avoid the problem although I would suggest that the hotel itself could ban deliveries before 8am which might help. Breakfast was of a reasonable quality although the hot buffet was looking a little tired when we got to it. The breakfast staff, however, were excellent being both friendly and attentive which was appreciated. In summary, this remains a decent hotel, particularly convenient for WWT Slimbridge, and if you can get a good rate for your stay it is worth it. Just ask for a room away from the delivery area if you fancy a pre-breakfast lie-in! less
