Location of the Holiday Inn Express, Bristol
Our stay at the Holiday Inn Express was good and we would stay there again due to the location - close to the railway station and airport bus.

A VERY nice place to stay. Close to the train station, but not so close to noise. Breakfast was really good, the staff were excellent, and was an easy walk to where we wanted to go. Would definitely stay again.

Aug 3, 2025
Nice hotel i had room 105. The guests in 107 had no respect for other residents. They were loud, swearing and playing music until 9.30pm. They then went out returning at 4.30am. Shouting swearing playing loud music until 7am when i assume they fell asleep. I was exhausted. I did mention to reception when i checked out at 9am. They said they would speak to the guests!!! Which was a little too late!!!
