Our Story

'A new way to stay'

The most luxurious hotel suites in Bristol. With individuality, quality and comfort at the heart of our designs, our suites will dazzle with style. Nothing is too much trouble and with 24hr service available, you will always find assistance should you need it.  

With over 50 years of hospitality experience you can rest assured you are in good hands. The Clifton Hotel  started as a small bed and breakfast in Clifton back in the 1960’s. Right from the get go we were never just about offering a bed for the night, we wanted to be more than that, providing a place where people could eat, drink, work and play anytime of day.

We've evolved into Clifton Hotels, now run by the next generation; our company has grown into a community of boutique hotels, unique residential accommodation, vibrant cafes, stylish bars and award winning restaurants.  We host an exciting events program across our venues, run the City’s premier private members club for the TV and media industries, curate a quarterly revolving art exhibition of local talent in the Square Gallery and run ‘How The Light Gets In’ a nationally renowned Philosophy and Music Festival.

Each of our venues is unique however at all of them you are guaranteed the personal service and individuality you’d expect from a Bristol independent passionate about our City. Now we are offering the next step in overnight accommodation - the luxury of an apartment in Clifton with all the flexibility and benefits of a hotel.  

‘I’m really excited about Berkeley Suites as it is a completely unique concept in Bristol.  We’ve been running residential accommodation and boutique hotels in Clifton for over 50 years, so for us offering luxury hotel suites has been a natural progression.  We now offer our guests the ultimate combined experience; the services you’d expect from a boutique hotel, the exclusivity of your own luxury suite in a stunning Grade II* listed building, full access to our private members club on top of the normal perks all our guests get by being part of the Clifton Hotels community’.
