Hotels in Bristol City Centre? For a unique, luxury stay there's nothing that beats the Berkeley Square Hotel.

When looking for hotels in Bristol city centre, there really is no better choice than the Berkeley Square Hotel. There are almost too many unique features of this stunning boutique hotel to mention. As part of Bristol’s only independent hotel group, Clifton Hotels, staying at the Berkeley Square is a memorable and delightful experience.

The elegant Georgian Grade II listed building coupled with the vibrancy of the Square Club give an atmosphere and style that simply is not found anywhere else.

As Bristol’s first Art hotel the Berkeley Square stands out from the range of hotels in Bristol city centre as a place for those with a creative side that are tired of the blandness of the large chains, where individuality is not always as evident.  The hotel is home to the Square Gallery which showcases exhibitions from cutting edge artist and even celebrities, including the DJ Goldie and the Stone Roses’ bassist John Squire in recent times.  Also displaying intriguing pieces from local talent throughout the building, the Berkeley Square’s tasteful style is plain for all to see.

The hotel sits in a quiet Georgian Square surrounding peaceful gardens with established trees and a park. It can be hard to believe that your are so close to the city centre, with Park Street and the Triangle right next to you, but the square has Brandon Hill, a large public park and home to the Cabot Tower viewpoint on its other side meaning no traffic passes through the square.

The Berkeley Square Hotel is also alone among hotels in Bristol city centre in having its very only private members club, also welcoming all hotel guests. The Square Club is a fascinating venue with a vibrant, quirky style that stands out from the crowd entirely.  The lower deck is home to the cocktail bar, ideal for an event like no other.

The Square Kitchen serves exquisite 2AA Rosette awarded food from a varied seasonal menu, full of surprise twists on classic dishes. With Sunday Roasts to die for and light lunches too there’s a menu to suit any time. The restaurant makes every effort to source local food, making it the top venue in the city for sampling the best of the West.

The Square Kitchen also offers the best breakfast range found in hotels in Bristol city centre with full English and Continental breakfasts being served as well as Smoked Salmon, Toasted Muffins and Waffles too making their way onto the menu.

The Square’s lounge makes for an ideal spot for relaxing with a coffee, treating yourself to afternoon tea or holding an informal meeting.  With ArtScape’s video art on display and all manner of interesting furnishings for you to soak up, it’s a location like no other for a spot relaxation and unwinding after a long day.

Also part of the Square Club is the terrace, recently voted as ‘the best outside dining in Bristol’. Perfectly suited to some al fresco nosh or even a barbeque the outdoor space comes with chunky wooden furniture, outdoor art and soothing chilled out music. Not something you’d normally associated with hotels in Bristol city centre.

To add to all this the Berkeley Square Hotel and Square Club are now a licensed wedding venue, providing the most memorable and unique venue for the big day. A ceremony in the light and airy upper deck, drinks on the terrace, the reception in our award winning restaurant with fine food prepared by our highly talented chefs and an evening reception in the lower deck cocktail bar all tailored to your vision and combined to make a very special wedding. Our in house wedding planner will be on hand to assist you throughout the preparation and planning process.

As well as local entertainment the Berkeley Square is a stone’s throw from Bristol City Centre’s most independent shopping street – Park Street, which offers something a little different from the Broadmead area.

On our very doorstep you’ll find the University of Bristol, with some departments in the Square alongside the hotel and the rest just a couple of minutes away. This makes the Berkeley Square the nearest of all the hotels in Bristol city centre to Bristol University. BBC Bristol, home to the world renowned Natural History Unit, is also just around the corner making the hotel popular with media professionals and academics travelling to Bristol.
