I enjoyed the Mercure Brigstow Bristol for its lovely river views and conveniently central location, which made exploring the area easy. However, I felt the service could improve, especially regarding the parking situation and the room cleanliness. Overall, while the experience had its highs, it didn't completely meet my expectations for a four-star hotel. 😊
