   Staying here was a last minute decision whilst on a business trip and I'm so glad I did. Staff are so friendly and helpful (big shout out to Harriet!). My room was really well presented, even with Classic FM playing on the radio as I walked in and cosy lighting well positioned. Everything here was pristine. Food and drinks service down in the bar was excellent also. If I had one constructive criticism it would be to please make breakfast available earlier than 8am (maybe from 7?) to accommodate those that need to be up and out fairly handy. In summary, a lovely experience and I would definitely recommend staying here. Keep up the good work Team Rising Sun!

   This was a great stopover for Bristol airport, only 10 minutes' drive away. The room was very comfortable and the food was excellent - it was the best full English breakfast we've had for a very long time. There's also a huge garden area at the back with plenty of tables and benches and a kids' play area.

   Stayed here on way to a recent trip to Bath. Flight ended up several hours late meaning I didnt get there till the early hours. Had contacted the hotel before hand and kept them updated, who had sent me very a clear late check in process which was reassuring as travel as a solo female. Room lovely and clean and felt very welcoming and breakfast next morning delicious. Staff all friendly and chatty and so helpful. Would definately return.

   It was a surprise and pleasure to enter tbe pub which was bright and welcoming. All the staff were cheerful and helpful. This was in contrast to a previous visit, some time ago, which was a dreary experience. The food was ok and served with a smile and cheerful exchange which was welcome and appropriate. It’s understandable that the menu choice is limited. Our friends from Ukraine are used to a greater choice. Parking was easy and the place warm.

   Excellent food, although some portions a little on the small side. Chips possibly the best I have ever tasted. 20% discount on Wednesdays make it a great choice in these times

   Far improved from last time we went, new owners have done well. Staff were friendly and service was quick and the food was nice. Menu is fairly small but all dishes were lovely.

   Excellent range of AF drinks. Bit pricey but so good to have a choice. It'd be nice to have AF wines and fizz served by the glass. But loved the zero IPA and will be back for more!
