Nice hotel for a one night stopover on our way to Ireland.We had an evening meal with dessert which was quite nice although the service was slow. However, the manager and staff were polite and friendly although noticeably under pressure and doing their best to look after a steady stream of customers. Breakfast couldn't be faulted for variety and presentation and nice and hot too! We'll definitely be back.

Stayed one night prior to flying out on holiday - staff girl was on her own manning several areas but was fast and efficient and upbeat when dealing with customers. Rooms were tired but clean (except for behind the TV). Food was good and arrived fast, reasonably priced.

Great service. It was an emergency and last minute that I and my wife needed a place for the night. All the big names when I called them were all booked. Online they were not. Ramada Bristol Wyndham were helpful over the phone. I was guided to book online and it was effortless. Room was spacious and quite. Located well beside the M5.I recommend people to use them.Plus the hotel Internet works.😂

Stayed here before flying out from Bristol Airport the day after! Nice little hotel, the staff were friendly and bedroom was fine! Car park was hard to find, went around the services station 3 times (which meant around the motorway roundabout) need more signs for the car park! Apart from that everything was fine!

Fairly basic accommodation but polite, helpful staff. Cheap access to Bristol City Centre via the X4 bus, which runs late at night (at time of writing). This hotel plus bus fares was half the price of one in the centre

Customer service was top notch. Ramada Bristol M5, Gordano Service provided excellent price and quality service. Vash the Managing Director approach in the morning shows that they care about our experience. I recommend them. Near M5. Professionalism intertwined with great character
