The Guest House is located in the Clifton suburb of Bristol, and sits along the edge of a plateau. The rooms at the back have therefore a good view on the city center. The Guest House is situated along a large park, along a road with rather heavy trafic. Our rooms were at the back. No problems parking the car... more

I recently stayed in Downs View with my husband in a ground floor en suite bedroom. My son also stayed for one night on the second floor. We were very comfortable. The room and bathroom were very clean and the breakfast was fine. It was good value for money. As we will be visiting Bristol frequently in the future we... more

I took my mum to Clifton for a weekend in March to celebrate her 50th birthday. We stayed in the twin ensuite room which is at the very top of the house and has absolutely fantastic views overlooking the downs. I had bought some balloons and a banner that i planned to decorate the room with on our arrival, but... more

We stayed at Downs View for 2 nights on the 10th and 11th August which was the weekend of the Balloon Fiesta in Bristol so everywhere was very busy. We were lucky to get our room as we left it fairly late in booking. As a result, we could not get the twin en-suite that we had hoped for -... more

I booked the cheapest room which is on the lower ground floor but despite that i still had a good view of the city. The room was clean clear and airy. .

We stayed here on the basis of the previous Trip Advisor comments but were disappointed in a couple of things. Firstly on arrival, are designated room had not been 'made up' and so we were given another room (substantially smaller) The owner was rather cold and did not offer to give any help on local information but the breakfast was... more

We stayed here twice during our vacation--the first two days and the last--and absolutely loved the experience. No review of this B&B can go without mentioning the incredible breakfasts offered here--they were hands down the best of our entire vacation (the Sundancer Eggs in particular are fantastic). You are asked to order breakfast the night before but only because the... more

Excellent location to visit our son who is at the University. Clean, comfortable and efficient, with great breakfast including home made jam etc. On the other hand, the welcome was not overly warm. We felt a bit as though we were intruding into the owners' comfortable lives. For instance, the breakfast had to be ordered the night before, we had... more

This is an ideally located b&b with rooms overlooking the downs at the front and the whole of Bristol to the rear. Rooms were clean with TV, and wash basin. Decor quite old fashioned but generally in good condition.The breakfasts were also good! I paid £55 for a double without en-suite but shower and toilet were opposite the room both... more
