Future Inn Bristol Cabot Circus

Fab hotel, situated perfect for Cabot Circus, the Hypodrome and restaurants. They paid my parking bill for me as well. Rooms were comfy, big with all the extras you need. We got back to the hotel around 11-30pm, after the show and it was nice to see the bar open! The breakfast in the morning was a fab experience, the waiter, called DANIEL,went above and beyond, he welcomed us, made us comfy and explained all to us. After deciding what we wanted, including omelettes and poached eggs, Daniel left, sorted it out with the chef the delivered all our food nice and hot, he made us smile and put us in a good mood to start the day. We noticed he wished everyone a happy day as they left, cleaned all the tables straight away, very attentive to detail. I asked him his name, as I wanted to mention him in a review, if I run a catering business, I would like to employ people like Daniel! Give him a pat on the back or even better, a pay rise! Lovely hotel, will return.

When looking for a Saturday night hotel in Bristol for a getaway with the wife, Future Inn seemed like the best option, so I booked it through Booking.com, which was cheaper than through the hotel directly (which is frustrating). Booking was smooth and easy enough!||Free parking at Cabot Circus car park, right next to the hotel was a major factor in booking this hotel. You take a ticket upon entry and the hotel validate it on check out - however trying to exit the car park it said it wasn’t validated. A quick press of a button on the gate put me through to someone who just let us out, so not too bad. ||The hotel is very well placed, worryingly close to the main road but we barely heard any road noise except for sirens occasionally. Chap at reception was lovely, a warm greeting and issued us with cards to our room on the fourth floor via a lift. ||The room itself was pretty spacious, various usb sockets, a good shower and enough toiletries to last our stay. Wallpaper was slightly coming away from the wall in one part but overall a good clean room. Air con worked (probably too well, was cold at night! My fault!). ||We didn’t use the onsite restaurant for anything, so can’t comment on that. Pub just next door was decent. ||Good, solid stay, will go again when we next visit Bristol!

Location of the hotel is good and the nearby car park is useful for central Bristol. However, the reception staff were not at all welcoming and seemed more interested in making sure I didn't take one of his pens rather than giving me any information for my stay. Once in the room, it seemed OK, air con was not great, but needed as no opening windows. I had a shower, grabbed the first towel and found a big mud patch inside the towel. Luckily the other towel was ok, but didn't give me much confidence. Breakfast was good, staff attending breakfast were very nice and helpful. Nice time in Bristol will be somewhere else!

Stayed for two nights in June 2025. I arrived in Bristol at 4:10 am, and got to the hotel to request early check in - I was told to come back at around 12:00pm. I had requested early check-in beforehand through booking and was told that it would depend on the day, so I thought it was reasonable that early check in was not available. They were able to store my luggage while I roamed around Bristol from 5:00 am to 11:00 am. My room was available when I returned at 11:00 am. While the treatment was polite, I thought it was odd that they wouldn’t suggest that I wait in their lounge until my room became available (instead recommending I “come back later”) - there was nothing open at 5:00 am and I had to wander about aimlessly for a few hours until breakfast places opened. When I ultimately checked in they asked for my credit card details despite the fact that I had already paid. It is the first time a hotel has asked for that, usually a deposit or my passport is requested as insurance. I requested confirmation that my data was deleted but got none of that after checking out, as it was explained to me that it was not possible to provide it. Lastly, the fire alarm rang while I was in my room - it was a fire alarm test. I understand it must have been nevessary but it certainly interfered with my comfort at the time! The staff was generally kind, polite, and professional. My room was very nice, but under the sheets it smelled of cigarettes! Other than that it was clean.

Lovely hotel, ideally situated right opposite the Cabot Circus shopping centre, so perfect for somewhere to eat or some retail therapy. The rooms are a good size nicely decorated, bathroom quite small but adequate, shower good size and powerful enough, easy controls. The buffet breakfast was lovely, everything you need, and the on site restaurant is really nice, good menu and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Very nicely decorated a great place for a meal or just a drink.

Second time staying here. First time with a stag group. Second time night before flying from Bristol. ||The rooms are clean and tidy. |Beds are very soft. Comfortable, but my back wasn’t great in the morning. But not the hotels fault as such, can’t please every single person and their bodily needs. ||Annoyingly it’s a hotel with the typical lighting set up… no lights to see properly and window was only small in the second room. ||All in all a decent hotel though.

Hotel is ideally situated for shopping/dining but there are so many fantastic eateries we never actually ate here. Parking in Cabot Circus is complimentary and everything is clearly signposted to get to reception. Rooms are clean and have everything you need for a night away. Only complaint about sleep quality is hotel staff using "RefugeArea" from about 7am allowing the door to slam behind them EVERY TIME. Staff are pleasant and efficient but Daniel in the bar was something else! So friendly and chatty whilst still being excellent at his job. He's a real asset to the hotel. Would happily return in the future

Just about an adequate hotel, but definitely not a 4 star, room and communal area definitely in need of updating, reception staff although polite, not really helpful. The chophouse staff were very helpful and that area was always well presented. Adequate for a business trip but I wouldn't recommend for leisure.

Do not use this company. I have booked a room in this hotel in April only for the event I am going to to be cancelled. The hotel will more than likely be closed for the day in question due to the Corona Virus and they have told me that if this does happen I will not receive a refund of the money I have paid up front, no concessions at all. I will NEVER use this company again and they need to start treating there customers fairly and with a little more compassion!!
