“There's a striking commitment to local art in this historic Grade II listed building, centrally located in Bristol. The reimagined interiors and imaginative dining options offer a modern counterpoint to the building's old bones. Still, it's worth noting that some accommodations miss the mark, and breakfast costs add up quickly.”
