YHA Bristol Reviews

1. No complimentary shower gel in the bathrooms & a free towel. 2. No proper safety deposit boxes 3. No FREE Wifi for guests 4. No continental breakfast included in the room rate as exists elsewhere.

THe hostel is in good location and also very clean, which is the cleanest hostel that I have stayed. And the staff is very helpful, and there is a river along the hostel.

It is near the river bank, so the scene is enjoyable. In addition, the elevater need the secury card to open, thus it is safe to live upstairs in the Hostel.

They have single rooms so if you are traveling alone, you don\'t need to pay for a double to have a private room. Location was great .

Abit expensive ,the prices have gone up substanially in comparison to last year

The location is great and close to everything. Chilling out in the afternoon in the games room was great very comfy and clean.

cleaner than expected

clean, good location. no free wifi. ridiculous shower room. light is motion detected n in the front part of the room, but shower is in behind, which means you have to come to the other side every 30 sec or so to activate the light or you'll be in the dark. what makes it worse is that the shower is also stupid. there's a button which u press so the water will come out. but it will automatically release in 30 sec (same time span as the light). all of these will keep u very busy during showering..

We had a nice Double Bedroom with a lovely view on the Bristol Harbour. The room was clean and beds were comfy. Self catering kitchen was easy to use, There were plenty of hobs, saucepans, bowls, enough plates, cutlery etc. for everyone. Bathrooms and showers were very clean plus no queuing. Bringing your own towels was okay but it would have been nicer if they had been provided. Also, in my opinion, a small breakfast should definitely be included for a hostel.

There was actually a kettle and cutlery in the kitchen this time but the members kitchen still feels neglected. Last year the kitchen was always busy but this year not many people were using it. Does the YHA have a policy of phasing out members kitchens and opening expensive cafes instead? Otherwise an excellent hostel. One of the best.

A decent hostel, but really nothing special. There wan't much of an atmosphere that can be found in some hostels, but if you're just looking for a bed for the night then it's just fine.

I had a very nice staying! My room was clean and the showers too. I used the self-catering kitchen and it was also clean. I was in Bristol to work and had 3 quiet nights. The location is perfect! The guy in the reception - sorry forgot his name - was very helpful and nice but the girl not so much.

The location is wonderful, right next to the harbour and a fifteen minute walk to the train station. The people were very kind and patient. They helped us with maps and finding our way around. I would definitely recommend this hostel.

Bit too hot in room at night.

Our room had not been cleaned when we arrived but once we complained, the staff fixed it very quickly

Lovely clean hostel, friendly staff, nice rooms and cosy beds.

It's a typical YHA hostel. Very reliable, great facilities, a bit lacking in atmosphere. Room was odd in that it had massive ceiling with a skylight that got bright very early and also had random things dropping to the ground from it. Glad I had a bottom bunk. Many different common areas here for whatever your tastes might be, which was great. Ensuite bathroom was clean. Really great location on the water (although i decent walk from the train/bus station, but worth it)

Great location. Facilites/atmosphere were as expected - you have what you need, but it's not particularly welcoming.. YHA is a bit like a hotel chain hostel; think I prefer independents.. Most disappointing was being told on arrival that HOSTELWORLD had quoted me a YHA member price, so I had to add £3 onto the rate or buy an annual membership. Seriously, Hostelworld?! After all the fun times we've shared.. tsk, tsk.

We had problems with our key card 4 times. it did´t work and the staff wasn´t that kind and helpful. The toiletts really were a mess, disgusting... ...and there were no sockets in our room nor in die bathroom. only one for shavers, which wouldn´t work for a hairdryer.

Good place to stay in the centre of Bristol, the only problem I had was that some idiot came in at gone midnight and woke the entire dorm!
