Horts Townhouse City Centre, Bristol, BS1 2EP

  • 19 bedrooms

Boutique bedrooms in the heart of Bristol

Hort’s Townhouse is a beautifully restored Grade II listed pub. Behind its handsome frontage, you will find a lively pub with 19 colourful, individually designed boutique bedrooms above. This is everything you want from a good city pub: breakfast in the morning, seasonal British dishes throughout the day, cocktails and pints at the bar and generous roasts on Sundays. The historic Old City, St Nicholas Market and Bristol Harbour are close by, while the cathedral, M Shed, SS Great Britain and the city’s shops, bars and restaurants can all be explored on foot. Bristol Temple Meads is around a 15-minute walk away, making Hort’s an easy choice for a car-free weekend too.

The Times Wrote: “Bristol was crying out for some cool new places to stay, and then, like buses, two came along almost at once. Artist Residence opened in a former boot factory in the up-and-coming neighbourhood of St Paul’s, and now Hort’s, a former sports bar on Broad Street, has undergone an extensive eight-month renovation. The beautiful grade II listed pub remains, but the TV screens and sticky floors are gone. In their place is an upmarket art deco boozer with 19 boutique rooms upstairs.”
