Our Story

Preserving what is timeless about our stunning Grade II* listed building, we transformed the interior with a modern twist into luxurious hotel suites in Bristol. It keeps us current, yet rooted in our community – the place that makes us who and what we are.

Each luxury apartment has been specifically designed to enhance the guest experience and deliver an unforgettable stay.

Our history

The Clifton Hotels Group started as a small bed and breakfast. From the outset, guest experience was key as we aimed to provide a haven where guests could sleep, eat, work and play any time of day. Over time, our portfolio has grown and evolved into a collection of the best independent hotels in Bristol.

In recent years the company has grown into a community of boutique hotels, unique workspaces, stylish bars and award-winning restaurants. With over 60 years of hospitality experience, we can guarantee an unrivalled Clifton stay. All of our venues are brimming with character and individuality and each guarantees the personal service and individuality you’d expect from an independent hotel in Bristol.

Events & exhibitions

Across our portfolio of venues we host a varied programme of events including networking groups, wellness sessions and workshops. Our neighbours and sister brand, The Square Club, are Bristol’s premier private members club for creatives and are home to a quarterly, revolving art exhibition of local talent in the Square Gallery. We also host ‘How The Light Gets In,’ a nationally renowned Philosophy and Music Festival.

Your experience

We provide our guests with award-winning, luxury accommodation in Bristol and are proud to have won the Conde Nast Johansens Award for Excellence two years running, beating competition from across the UK. It’s our aim to help you have the best experience of Bristol, so whether you’re looking for a leisurely weekend getaway, a bridal suite for a wedding or corporate accommodation for a business event, Berkeley Suites offers a refreshing stay in the heart of Clifton.
