Hotel du Vin can be found on Bristol’s rejuvenated, stylish waterfront. The magnificent Grade II listed 18 th Century Sugar House has been converted into a chic hotel with all the trademarks of the Hotel du Vin group. It is a great base from which to sample the architecture, the history, the culture, shopping and entertainment of the city of Bristol, not to mention the lively nightlife for which Bristol is so renowned.

Bristol’s great heritage started from humble beginnings. An Anglo-Saxon settlement by the name of Brigstowe steadily grew into a thriving port. After the Norman invasion of 1066, a castle was built in what is now known as Castle Park. The port continued to flourish and Bristol became one of England’s principal ports. John Cabot sailed from Bristol aboard The Matthew in 1497, a voyage that led to him discovering Newfoundland. Bristol continued to expand over the following centuries and much of the city’s most celebrated architecture sprang up during the 17 th and 18 th Centuries, at a time when cane sugar, tobacco, rum and cocoa poured into the city, swelling its economy. Isambard Kingdom Brunel is synonymous with Bristol; the great engineer is responsible for some of the city's most famous features, including the Clifton Suspension Bridge, the great iron ship the SS Great Britain and Temple Meads Station, terminus for the Great Western Railway.

The port of Bristol had, by the 1970s, fallen into decline, yet with great vision and determination, the waterfront area today is a beautifully revived part of the historic city. Hotel du Vin stands proudly at the heart of this revitalised area.

Hotel du Vin can be found in a landmark building on Bristol’s superbly revived waterfront, a place of great historical interest, as well as a home to much of the city’s renowned culture, commerce and some very desirable dwellings. Hotel du Vin’s personality typifies that of the surrounding area, with style, sophistication, character and charm. Each of the 40 stylish rooms has been designed with flair and verve. They are both pleasing to the eye and satisfyingly comfortable. The attention to detail, as at any Hotel du Vin, is impeccable. The rooms are equipped with a plethora of facilities that will satisfy even the most demanding guest, whether they visit for business or pleasure.
