The Bristol exudes old world charm with a very traditional European clientele.The opposite of flashy. Excellent location. Generous rooms and well-appointed, modern bathrooms. More

We enjoyed 3 days here and it came up to scratch in all respects. The hotel remains family owned and is clearly loved and cherished, taking one back in time to what one imagines grand hotels were like in "the good old days". It retains so much of its historic character and decor, and is warm and welcoming and staffed... More

We spent 2 nights for the New Year celebration at the Bristol, taking three superior rooms. These face the Markartplatz, but we were not disturbed by any road noise, but obviously church bells and New Year's firecrackers were heard. Each room was different, and was individually named. The names tried to reflect the decor and colours, The rooms were large,... More

As previous reviewers have noted, the breakfast service is incredible; we also ate one evening in the restaurant and enjoyed food to an equally high standard. The... More
