At Channings Hotel by Greene King Inns, guests praise the friendly staff and convenient location near Clifton and central Bristol, while opinions on room quality and the building’s condition are mixed, with comfort varying notably by room type and floor.
Many appreciate the on-site pub and generally friendly service, with some family rooms described as spacious and comfortable. Regular drawbacks include very warm top-floor rooms with limited ventilation, occasional noise from the bar or corridors, and challenging street parking. Expect a simple pub-accommodation stay where location and staff stand out more than polish.

room was clean . Bathroom, bath and basin very clean. Towel rail missing from wall. The basin tap hot and cold indicators are worn off and should be replaced with new ones costing a few pence. Wood chip wallpaper not very attractive but probably hides poor plasterwork. The mat/carpet at the entrance to the bar/dining area is GRIM. This should be replaced as soon as possible as it does not give a good impression of cleanliness. It is a popular pub and restaurant and I had a good overall stay.

The hotel is ok but needs a lot of TLC. It is functional but certainly don’t book if you are looking for a spacious room with a modern feel. The room we had was small and outdated with a double bed that was comfortable. We did use the restaurant downstairs for dinner, which was reasonably priced and food was good. Breakfast was your normal continental or cooked breakfast and again it was ok. Parking in the area is a nightmare and the hotel does not have any or even one space where you can off load your bags. We ended up parking about a 10 minute walk away.

Very poor for a Green King. Property surrounded by resident permit bays only, which was not mentioned when booking, only no on site parking. Room was awful and grubby, in desperate need of updating (see photos) I would be embarrassed to have any family stay in this family room, it was that bad we almost left but decided to go out all evening and only reluctantly sleep there. Had i known the state of the place I would have stayed well clear. I have stayed at Green King places before and been generally happy, but this was a awful room. The busy pub downstairs was freindly and ok. Would not stay again and probably steer clear of Green Kings in future now. Cant add photos , but trust me it was very sub standard.

Towels were good but hand towel had a hole in it. Staff were friendly. If you want to travel back in time to a shabby, doleful BnB but pay extra then stay here. Don’t stay in Winter, the window doesn’t close (or open for that matter). I expected more for the price.

We chose a family room because we needed two beds but the condition of the room was terrible. The state of decoration was terrible and the luggage rack was non useable because it was hanging off the wall. There was no toilet roll holder, just the bracket on the wall, so the toilet roll was on the floor. Senior management of Greene King should try staying in their hotels and ask themselves if they would personally pay £135 to stay in that room.

The location is good for Bristol, the hotel room was at the top of the building, very poor ventilation and although a fan was supplied, the room was very hot. Hotel room was very basic. We didn’t have the breakfast ,coffee was just a pot of filter coffee. The room seemed quite shabby, although was clean and the mattress comfortable.

Was reasonably priced for the area but still simple basics were missed and the top floor was far too hot. Two inches of window opening and a weak fan were not enough to prevent a terrible nights sleep.

It is Hotel & Pub. So be prepared for the loud noise till late at night. Even though the pub closed around 11pm, people were hanging around on the road till 2pm. The rooms were very dated & uncomfortable. They didn't have enough digital keys for the guest to check in. The only thing nice about this Hotel were the staff. They were very polite & friendly.

This was a great location for us. It is only a 10 minute walk to the heart of downtown Bristol. We booked the family room. It offered plenty of space for my daughter and me. Around the corner is a GREAT sandwich shop called Sandwich Sandwiches. They close around 3pm so don't miss out on one of their freshly made masterpieces! 10 minutes away are lots of restaurant options for quick grab-and-go options. The hotel staff were awesome! I had a really long day of walking up and down hills and really needed an ice bath. The lady working the desk hooked me up and gave me a big bag of ice....very cool!

We stayed at Channings because it was convenient to visit family in Clifton. Rooms were fine for our needs, wifi was good enough for work-related video calls, continental breakfast was good. Staff were helpful. Since the rooms are above a bar, we were not surprised by typical noise from downstairs, and it did not affect our ability to rest and sleep.

We stayed here as 2 families: 3 adults and 4 children. The family rooms were spacious and equipped with comfortable beds. The breakfast was excellent value and very tasty. The building itself needs a little TLC, but that didn’t lessen our experience. All of the staff we encountered were very helpful and friendly. They helped us with looking after our bags and transport queries. They were even patient with our excited children. The location is nice and quiet. It is in a pub so there’s bound to be some noise at closing time, but that’s to be expected. There are several buses available nearby and it’s only a short walk to the suspension bridge & play park. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely NOT worth for the price I paid. In my room the heating didn't work so I asked for the room to be changed (which thankfully they did) The room furniture was badly chipped as well as the bath tube.an extremely old TV : no way I could connect an amazon firestick. I was the only costumer sitting for breakfast and I had to wait more than 20 minutes to make my order. I kindly asked the receptionist to send me an invoice via email which she never did. Quality of the food served not bad.

The hotel is ok but needs a lot of TLC. It is functional but certainly don’t book if you are looking for a spacious room with a modern feel. The room we had was small and outdated with a double bed that was comfortable. We did use the restaurant downstairs for dinner, which was reasonably priced and food was good. Breakfast was your normal continental or cooked breakfast and again it was ok. Parking in the area is a nightmare and the hotel does not have any or even one space where you can off load your bags. We ended up parking about a 10 minute walk away.

We stayed here as 2 families: 3 adults and 4 children. The family rooms were spacious and equipped with comfortable beds. The breakfast was excellent value and very tasty. The building itself needs a little TLC, but that didn’t lessen our experience. All of the staff we encountered were very helpful and friendly. They helped us with looking after our bags and transport queries. They were even patient with our excited children. The location is nice and quiet. It is in a pub so there’s bound to be some noise at closing time, but that’s to be expected. There are several buses available nearby and it’s only a short walk to the suspension bridge & play park. We would definitely stay here again.

The location is good for Bristol, the hotel room was at the top of the building, very poor ventilation and although a fan was supplied, the room was very hot. Hotel room was very basic. We didn’t have the breakfast ,coffee was just a pot of filter coffee. The room seemed quite shabby, although was clean and the mattress comfortable.

This was a great location for us. It is only a 10 minute walk to the heart of downtown Bristol. We booked the family room. It offered plenty of space for my daughter and me. Around the corner is a GREAT sandwich shop called Sandwich Sandwiches. They close around 3pm so don't miss out on one of their freshly made masterpieces! 10 minutes away are lots of restaurant options for quick grab-and-go options. The hotel staff were awesome! I had a really long day of walking up and down hills and really needed an ice bath. The lady working the desk hooked me up and gave me a big bag of ice....very cool!

We stayed at Channings because it was convenient to visit family in Clifton. Rooms were fine for our needs, wifi was good enough for work-related video calls, continental breakfast was good. Staff were helpful. Since the rooms are above a bar, we were not surprised by typical noise from downstairs, and it did not affect our ability to rest and sleep.

Quick check in The room needed updating. There we no plugs near the bed. I found the bed Very hard and uncomfortable. The extractor fan in the bathroom didn't do to work. Breakfast was very poor and my partner couldn't eat it.

Plenty of space in the familybroom in thenrop turret room. 4 proper beds, 2 together as.a double. Its an old building and hence an old hotel. Great location for clifton and cliften down, once the pub shut it was very quiet. The included breakfast includes any of the hot options. Only disappointment was only filter coffee rather than a bean to cup type machine for espresso based drinks

The staff were lovely, and the breakfast was excellent for the price. The girl at the bar went the extra mile to prepare a delicious gluten-free breakfast for me, which I really appreciated. The family room was clean and very spacious. Overall, it was exactly what it promised and very good value for money. The location was great too.
