"Family Visit to Bristol"

Myself and my daughter had booked two separate rooms and arrived at around 4pm on Saturday. The check-in was very easy and although one of the rooms still needed to be cleaned it was only a 10 minute wait. The rooms were very clean and had tea and coffee making facilities on hand which was very welcome after a long trip. Although we were able to park the car park was very full and when we returned from a family visit around 8pm there were very few spaces available. We didn't eat at the hotel so can't comment on the food. Check out was also very quick and easy just leaving your door key card in a receptacle on the wall. All in all very impressed - would recommend and will return for sure!

"A lovely Premier Inn in very nice suroundings"

Never stopped at this Premier Inn before and was surprised at the building as we later found out it had been 5 star Motel at some point and we must Admit on our arrival was unsure what to expect as it looked a bit 60`s looking in design, Nothing wrong with the 60`s we was there. We was welcomed by a very nice lady and given our keys to room 103 it was upstairs and it was in very good condition the bed was very comfortable it had a walk in shower in a very modern and clean bathroom with plenty of clean towels. The room also had a Private balcony overlooking the local cricket field and the double glazed door locked up so we felt safe, We had a great nights sleep in The very comfortable bed with no noise what so ever the room had all the usual Premier Inn facilities Tea,Coffee and large TV and I will stay there next year on our return trip from Cornwall, A great place to break your journey as it was adjacent to a lovely Pub/Restaurant serving very nice food in a pleasant atmosphere.....

"Lovely food chaotic service"

We were a party of 4. There were 2 young girls looking after every one and it was apparent they were new staff. We booked In advance but neither of the girls new the password for their computer so they couldn't check the booking so told us to sit anywhere. When we eventually after about 20 mins got to order our drinks the girl said to point out what we wanted on the drinks menu as she didn't know about drinks. It was about another 20 mins before we got to order food. We ordered a turkey dinner, a sirloin steak no chips but a salad, another steak with a baked potato instead of chips. Then a bowl of soup as the 4th person wasn't feeling well. Unfortunately that was where things went completely haywire. The soup came as the only starter although it was for a main. The turkey was missing potatoes, devil on horseback, Yorkshire pud, gravy and cranberry . Half the meal. The one steak came with chips even though we ordered baked potato. The other was actually right. The baked potato was fetched when we pointed it out but then it was black in the middle. We gave up and had the chips which were against our slimming world diet. Eventually we got to eat and the food particularly the steaks were excellent. We waited some time after we finished the mains. 2 dishes were then removed but it was some time and not until we called for service that the other plates were removed and our orders for sweet taken. We ordered a sharing board of sweets. We were then informed this was not available and most of the other sweets were run out. We were then told the sweets were finished but then a few minutes later they were back on. We ordered 3 mini sweets of cheesecake and coffees And even that had a swap to a different cheese cake.it was a very nice millionaires cheese cake when it came. The 2 girls serving were very pleasant and were trying their very best. Their was a lady in charge who spent most of the evening dealing with everyone's complaints as most of the other customers we could see also seamed to have problems. It was very nice at the end to be told that due to our problems the one steak meal had been removed from our bill. We actually enjoyed our meal very much but it was apparent the staff needed training and more back up which was not available. A badly run business. A lot of people will be put off if this is the normal standard. The problem is at the top of the business and not with those who tried to give us a great night.

"Don't bother"

The first room he receptionist gave us had an aircon technician trying to fix the air con for that block of rooms. We went back to reception and complained about the lack of air-con. Eventually, the receptionist and another employee went off in search of a suitable room, which to their credit they found such a room. It was very very clean to their credit, but the bed was so hard we both had difficulty sleeping and getting up from the bed. I do have a back problem, but my husband does not. Not until then anyway. Breakfast was a scam really, I had paid for 2 continental breakfasts. There was NOT any fruit offered and the choice of 3 cereal types, toast and plain croissants. There were no cheeses, cold meat, or fruit!

Hotel description Premier Inn Bristol Alveston gives you the best of both worlds: a lovely rural setting paired with top-notch transport links. Close to the M5, M4 and M48 we're a great stop-off on the road to Cornwall, Devon and Wales, as well as local attractions. Hit the shops at Cribbs Causeway or hit the greens at Thornbury Golf Club. Get your fashion fix in Bristol City Centre. Or, if you're here on business, you'll find Thornbury Trading Estate, Aztec West and Filton Airbus just minutes away. Once you're done, come back and relax in one of our new generation bedrooms featuring an impressive 40" flat screen TV, bright, modern bathroom with large shower head, and slumber-inducing Hypnos bed.
