Yes, I recommend this property.
Ideal for the main railway station, and only a short 10 minutes walk to either the city centre or harbour side. On many bus routes, so not having a car isn't a problem.
Rooms are very well sound proofed, and air conditioned, so guaranteeing a decent nights sleep.
Staff very friendly, welcoming and helpful.

Ideal (and quiet) location in which to explore everything Belfast (and Northern Ireland) has to offer.
Easy walkable location from the main sights, (or indeed cheap taxi rides if that's your preference). Not far from both the Botanic Gardens and Botanic railway station, Rooms are a bit dated, but are airy and quiet. Staff are friendly and attentive, bar is well stocked, and for an Express, probably the BEST full Irish breakfast you'll ever have!! (Set's you up for a full days exploring). Evening meals are available on site, and if you want to eat out, then there are lots of choices within a 5-10 minute walk. Our 3 night stay here was extremely enjoyable. Would highly recommend staying here,.

IF you want to explore just Bristol, then I would use the Holiday Inn Bristol City Centre, as getting in and out of Bristol can be a nightmare if you are using your car, or indeed the busses, BUT if you are content with exploring what South Gloucestershire has to offer, then this would be the hotel for you. Also handy if needing a break on a long journey if using the M4/M5 Corridor.
Hotel is also handy for the Bristol Parkway railway station.
