Arnos Manor Hotel

Built in the 18th Century, this historic hotel boasts many original features recalling its days as the luxurious home of wealthy Bristol merchant William Reeve. As you enter between the twin turrets you are greeted by an ornate twin staircase and carved ceiling which recall its former glory. The building's history includes a spell as a convent - and the hotel even has its very own ghost or two!

Situated some 10/15 minutes from the M4 corridor, yet conveniently only a short distance from the city centre and airport. Having its own free car park for over 200 cars makes this an ideal Bristol base.

This impressive hotel has 73 bedrooms all of which are en-suite with some having spa baths.

The Cloisters Restaurant serves a wide selection of dishes, with beef from naturally reared, grass fed cattle and is matured on the bone for a minimum of 21 days.

The bar and Chapel lounge offers superb historic surroundings in which to enjoy a pre-dinner drink.

The hotel's conference facilities can cater from small business meetings to banqueting and conferences up to 150 delegates.

For those who are looking for a venue to complete your wedding day, the hotel is fully licensed for wedding ceremonies. The landscaped gardens and the Georgian Gothic buildings are an ideal backdrop for wedding photographs.
