Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Bristol is frequently praised for its convenient location, being a short walk from the train station and right by the river, with a red line e-bus stop also in front of it. Guests often highlight the wonderful breakfast, featuring a variety of yogurts, fresh breads, fruit, meats and cheeses. The views, particularly of the Matterhorn, are often described as amazing, with some rooms offering private patios; however, a few guests have mentioned that the bathrooms can be quite small. Shuttle service to the train station is a further appreciated convenience.

central locationsmall bathroomhairdryer issue
The location is central, close to both the train station and cable cars. The bus stop is right outside the hotel, a definite benefit.
The bathroom was small. There was nowhere to place personal items. The towels touched the shower door when on the rail. Two settings on the hairdryer did not work.
