What guests think

At Victoria Square Hotel Clifton Village, reviewers consistently praise the convenient Clifton location and friendly, helpful staff, while rooms are generally clean and comfortable but vary in size and style within this traditional, stair-filled heritage building.

On-site parking is a paid bonus but spaces can be limited or tight to access. Breakfast is often tasty, though several guests report slow service and the preorder system or pricing as drawbacks. Some mention noise between rooms, occasional maintenance issues, and a lack of air conditioning or fridges. Expect a characterful, well-located stay with warm service and a few practical trade-offs.

I have stayed here a number of times and it is always good with friendly helpful staff and clean and comfortable rooms. There is a car park which is helpful although it can get a bit full at times I have never failed to find a space.

The hotel is super well situated in Clifton. I chose this hotel specifically because of the location and because it was dog friendly. For anyone bringing a dog, call ahead to make sure you reserve a dog friendly room (I booked and then rang immediately and they sorted this right away). There is also a very nice grassy area just across the road for a dog to run around (which is where I took him in the morning). The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, everything was clean, and the location was really great. I struggled for parking as it was fully booked that day. Luckily my car is tiny and I could squeeze in the last available spot, but most cars would have struggled. As it was a weekend, on street parking near the hotel was all full, but I did notice that a few streets away it was more available. I'd definitely stay again.

A very substantial breakfast in a light and airy dining room. Easy walking to the Clifton Suspension Bridge and the lovely park above it. Bus service to the center of town is just across the street. And if you have the Freedom Pass, the buses are free, though sometimes the drivers don't know that! The on site parking is not free (£9 per day) stung a bit, as many other places (perhaps not in Bristol) offer free parking to paying guests. Lovely staff. As it is a property with character, that means many, many steps. Elegant steps, but lots of them.

The property was good for an overnight stay but would not have been a choice for a longer stay. The staff were good and very helpful. There's parking available but make sure you get directions and don't rely on satnav. The entrance to the car park is small and not so obvious.

The location and heritage building are the only positive aspects of this hotel - our room was so small that even walking past each other was a struggle, with a toddler and luggage in the room, it couldn’t have worked for more than x1 night. The decor was also extremely basic/low-budget. I couldn’t use the car park on day of departure too, so still had to find on-street parking first thing in the morning which wasn’t relaxing. Lastly, the breakfast was a little awkward. Having to ask for a tea/coffee top up (in a tiny cup) irks me - a pot on the table, or a self service station would improve that. The food was well cooked though.

Pillows for me were too hard, but that’s just me. Good size large double (. 207) The hotel can do with having some general decorating , but it was clean . Fab location for Clifton village.

The room was very nice, perhaps some things a bit old but pretty anyway. Beds comfy, bathroom very nice, spotlessly clean. Staff we met were lovely. The one huge negative was the noise - particularly banging doors. We were in room 214 opposite a room used by staff. Woken both days at 6.10am by that door, then lots of door banging from below our room where the entrance door was. In the evening woken by doors banging as guests came up to rooms. All this could be remedied by fitting slow closure hinges on all the doors adjusted to prevent doors closing with force. This is a good hotel in every other way.

Our room was newly decorated and was superb, peaceful, calm and comfortable, we could easily have stayed longer! The hotel was perfect for us as it’s one of the very few located in Clifton where we base ourselves. Parking is a gift, £9 per night and plenty of spaces although it’s first come first served. We didn’t have breakfast but there are several options in this fantastic area. We’ll return!

The hotel is in a nice location in a quiet square in the middle of Clifton Village. The room was comfortable and had everything I needed When I checked in the staff member on reception was quite pushy about getting a credit card number from me, to cover damages, even though I had paid for the room in advance and was only staying one night. I was told the room was on the first floor so I asked if there was a lift. I was told there was no lift available; the staff member made no offer to help me with my luggage. After looking all around the first floor I found my room was actually on the second floor.

This hotel is in a great location in Clifton. Easy walking to amazing restaurants and independent shops. And right on the frequent #8 bus route if you're coming from the train station. It's a 3-star hotel so as long as you're not expecting 5-star facilities, it's good. Very clean with friendly staff. My only complaint was that our room (actually the whole 2nd floor) didn't smell great.

The hotel is very clean and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. We were that happy we booked in on our return journey from Devon. The hotel faces the Victoria Square Garden, with a short walk through the garden you’re into Clifton village. There’s restaurants and shops within walking distance. Also the bus stop is outside the hotel, where the No8 takes you into the city, and the return stop is also outside the hotel. I would recommend staying here !

Great location and lovely building. Parking on site is available for c. 10 cars which is great, although there is also parking in the surrounding area. About a 20 minute to the centre and lots of cafes/shops within a 5 minute stroll. The only negative we had was that we found it quite noisy, not the road outside but the hotel guests and so I think the walls must have been thin. That being said, we would definitely stay here again and the staff were really friendly.

We had too ask the young girl too serve us, she was more intent on cleaning tables, which I found a bit odd as there were only 2 tables having breskfast. We had to continually ask for coffee/ orange juice. We waited over 20 minutes for our breakfast to arrive, yet we had ordered it when we arrived.

Really enjoyed our stay here and the area is very pretty and high quality.The room was great very clean and had everything we needed.Location was good as a stroll away were the main amenities with great shops bars restaurants and green spaces. My only concern was we got the impression there may have been staffing issues as we waited for our breakfast for quite a while (we had to pre fill in breakfast forms) plus the portions/accesible items were not very substantial.Tea/coffee/juice had to be pre ordered the sugar and butter portions were brought to our table instead of being accessible...for the price we paid for breakfast it felt a little underwhelming as if they were being careful with portions.If staying here try to get a room at the rear of the property as road noise can be disturbing.

Pros great location for Clifton Village and the lovely nearby restaurants. Staff are freindly and breakfast is good. Cons charge for parking. Extra parking charge if you leave it later than 11am on day of departure. Some rooms are in another building. Some rooms are 3 star standard and OK but the family room i was in was easy for refurbishment, e.g the furnishings didn't match and were mostly ready for the skip, the walls needed repainting and the flat screen tv was the smallest I've ever seen. Also for breakfast there's a strange prices where you have to book a time slot, which is understandable. However, having to choose your breakfast the day before doesn't really work and then needing to go back to reception every time if you want to change it for the following day is just a waste of time. Try a menu on the table!
