Rock N Bowl Hostel Reviews

It's a little bit loud at night but I guess there is no choice

Very friendly staff, I loved that. I liked the free wi fi and the location. I didn't like the common toilet and showers.

The bathrooms were coed and the showers were very dirty. The room was clean, but the only locker storage was on the main floor. The hostel was extremely loud as it was next to a bowling alley with live music playing outside. The kitchen was great.

Great hostel, 100% recommended!

This hostel is almost impossible to find if you are going off google maps as there is two different Nelson streets in Bristol, the one in the centre is the right one but on google maps it says the rock n bowl is in a residential area quite a way out of the city. The hostel is on top of a bowling alley/nightclub so our room was vibrating from the loud music that was being played.

Really nice hostel. I'm trying to find something bad but I can't do it. The rooms and the whole hostel is modern, spacious and well cleaned. I realised most of the people there were long-term guess and it seems that makes the hostel to be lively, friendly but also respectful. All the staff (I think I've spoken with three or four guys) were really nice and helpful but Adam deserves special mention for his easygoing but effective help. It was a pitty I could only be one day there. Thanks :)

Nice to have the Bowling Lane right in the cellar. Tiny rooms for 3 ppl too tiny. Cleanliness of bathroom is poor. But just for sleeping it is OK.

There should be free european plug-in conventers for all rooms.

Very good Hostel! There are a pub "under" the hostel, very very cool! Highly reccomended

Well located, close to the bus station and Nelson street. Gets very noisy at night due to the bar downstairs, but they provide earplugs if you ask for them. No breakfast and the kitchen is quite messy. Some of the beds are comfortable, others aren't.

A great stay, will definitely be back. Thanks!

It´s a great hostel in the city center clean and every thing quite good. And for the people who like you can go to the bowling in the ground floor and get reduce Price for stay in the hostel

Very big Hostel, located right in the center of Bristol, very close to the Coach Station. There's always someone hanging out in the kitchen or the large recreation room which is nice if you like to be in good company. Some of the toilets were out of order, though. Nevertheless, a nice hostel!

Very nice staff and very comfortable beds. In a great location.

Warm and cozy, it was a good place to rest up after a 24hr flight. Late checkout, free wifi, good character and atmosphere. The only bad point was the place needs a good fix up, it's in a bit of a sorry state.

It's a godd hostel, perfect location but a little bit old. I enjoyed it anyway.

Best hostel I've ever sleep!!! Very nice place!

Staff was nice when we checked in and showed us to our room. It would have been nice to know we could have been fined for checking out a little late. They shouldn't assume that we just know the rules, since we don't stay at hostels ever. It was loud, I agree with the other comments. But I was so tired from the day that I didn't notice much. Bathrooms were clean and the beds were clean and comfortable. Would have been nice to have some tea or something like that in the morning, though.

all good, no problem with anything

Don't come here if you want to sleep! Having read other reviews, I was expecting noise until 3 am. No complaints there, I knew what I was getting myself into. What I was wasn't expecting was the noise on the street outside until nearly 5 am. Also, there were no power sockets in the bedroom which was a serious pain. Bathrooms/kitchen/lounge area were all fine, and the staff were friendly and helpful. No lockers in the room, but there was a steel cage under bed which you could put a padlock on.
