The best serviced apartments in Bristol

Pembroke Road, Clifton

Set on one of Clifton's most handsome residential streets, Pembroke House is the kind of address that makes you feel instantly at home in Bristol. Twelve thoughtfully designed apartments span one and three-bedroom configurations, all with sofa beds for when the group gets a little bigger than expected. The interiors are warm and considered rather than generic serviced-apartment beige, and the size of the spaces means you can actually spread out, cook a proper meal, and feel like you're living rather than just sleeping somewhere. Whiteladies Road is a short walk away, putting you within easy reach of excellent coffee, independent boutiques, and the kind of neighbourhood restaurants that don't need a Michelin star to be brilliant. For longer stays especially, it's hard to beat.

Best for: Groups & longer stays

Sleeps Up To: Between 2-8 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed, 2 Bed Apartments (all with sofa beds)

From price: £78.63 per night

Wapping Wharf, Cumberland Rd

Wapping Wharf has become one of Bristol's most talked-about neighbourhoods, a former dockyard reinvented as a collection of independent eateries, bars, and shops housed in repurposed shipping containers. These 13 brand-new studio apartments sit right in the middle of all of it. They're sleek, modern, and cosy in the way only a well-designed compact space can be, ideal for solo travellers or couples who want to be completely immersed in central Bristol life from the moment they step outside. You're also a short stroll from the wider harbourside and a handful of Bristol's best restaurants, meaning you could eat somewhere different every night of a week-long stay and still not run out of options. Late-night snack covered too, with a convenience shop close by.

Best for: Remote workers & explorers

Sleeps Up To: Between 2-8 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed, 2 Bed Apartments (all with sofa beds)

From price: £70 per night

Regent Street, Clifton

If there's one part of Bristol that visitors fall hardest for, it's Clifton Village, Georgian terraces, the great sweep of the Downs, Isambard Kingdom Brunel's Suspension Bridge framed at the end of every other street. These apartments put you right at the centre of it, with room configurations ranging from doubles to king studios, some with sofa beds for extra guests. The on-site coworking space is a proper bonus for remote workers, no hunting for a decent café with reliable wifi, and with the Clifton Triangle's restaurants and bars practically on your doorstep, you'll be finding excuses to extend your stay. On-site parking seals the deal for anyone driving in from outside the city.

Best for: Couples & solo travellers

Sleeps Up To: Between 2-8 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed Apartments (with sofa beds)

From price: £60 per night

Tyndall's Park Road, Clifton

Clifton House earns its place on this list through sheer range. From a single room to a super-king studio, there's a configuration for almost every type of trip here, solo business trip, couple's weekend, or a small group wanting to stay somewhere properly residential. The free parking alone makes it a standout in a neighbourhood where street parking is a competitive sport. Whiteladies Road and the Clifton Triangle are close by, meaning you've got everything from quick takeaway lunches to sit-down dinners sorted without needing to think too hard. Free super-fast wifi throughout means it works just as well as a base for getting things done as it does for switching off entirely.

Best for: Budget-conscious stays with a car

Sleeps Up To: Between 2-4 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed Apartments (with sofa beds)

From price: £60 per night

Cotham Hill, Cotham

Eight two-bedroom apartments, each sleeping up to six, tucked into a quiet residential pocket of Cotham, it's the kind of place that feels like you've borrowed a friend's flat rather than checked into somewhere. The apartments are genuinely spacious, with proper living areas and kitchens that make self-catering feel like a pleasure rather than a compromise. Cotham Hill's independent restaurant and bar strip is just around the corner, and you're an easy walk from Bristol University and the Clifton Triangle. For families who want space to decompress after a day exploring the city, or friends groups who'd rather eat in than battle for a restaurant table, Rowan Tree hits the spot.

Best for: Families & Small Groups

Sleeps Up To: Between 2-4 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed Apartments

From price: £90 per night

Cotham, Bristol

There's something quietly brilliant about staying in a converted pub. The Cotham Arms retains the warmth and character of its former life while offering five seriously comfortable two-bedroom apartments, the kind of spaces that feel considered and lived-in rather than lifted wholesale from a catalogue. You get the sense of a building with a story, which in Bristol, a city that cherishes its independent character, feels entirely appropriate. Cotham Hill's restaurant scene is practically outside your door, and Park Street and the Clifton Triangle are an easy stroll when you want to venture further. The kind of place you tell friends about when they ask for Bristol recommendations.

Best for: Character seekers & culture lovers

Sleeps Up To: Between 2 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed Apartments

From price: £70 per night

Cotham, Bristol

Frederick Place occupies a particularly pleasant residential corner of Clifton, quiet enough to sleep well, close enough to everything to not feel isolated. The mix of one and two-bedroom apartments sleeping up to six makes it versatile: it works equally well for a couple on a long weekend as it does for a small family doing Bristol properly over a week. What stands out is the genuine residential feel of the street, this is a neighbourhood people actually live in, and staying here gives you that. Bristol University, Clifton Village, and Whiteladies Road are all within comfortable walking distance, and Park Street's independent shops and cafés are just slightly further down the hill.

Best for: Quiet base, great access

Sleeps Up To: Between 2 - 6 People

Apartment Size: 1 - 4 Bed Apartments

From price: £70 per night

Hotwells, Bristol

Hotwells sits in a sweet spot between Clifton and the harbourside, a neighbourhood that's had something of a quiet renaissance in recent years, with independent cafés, good pubs, and a growing food scene filling the high street. The apartments here range from a single through to king beds, so whether you're travelling alone or as a pair, there's something that fits. You're within easy reach of the Suspension Bridge and the Downs for morning walks, and the harbourside's restaurant strip for evenings. It's also one of the closer bases to the M5 corridor, making it a smart choice for anyone combining a Bristol stay with travel further into the West Country.

Best for: Business stays

Sleeps Up To: Between 2 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed Apartments

From price: £60 per night

City Centre, Bristol

For those who want to be in the thick of it, close to the city centre, Temple Meads, and Avonmead Retail Park, Colston Street delivers. The apartments are generously sized for the price point, with two king beds and a double sofa bed making it a practical choice for small groups or families who need actual room to exist alongside each other. A large Sainsbury's nearby takes the stress out of stocking the kitchen for those nights you'd rather eat in, and the proximity to both Paintworks and Bristol's TV studios gives the location a quietly creative edge. Easy access to the M32 makes it a sensible pick for business travellers arriving by car too.

Best for: City Centre Access

Sleeps Up To: Between 2 - 4 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed Apartments (with sofa beds)

From price: £60 per night

Old Market, Bristol

Old Market has one of Bristol's most interesting and evolving characters, LGBTQ+ bars, independent food spots, vinyl shops, and a sense that something's always happening just around the corner. Arabica House leans into that energy, offering flexible one, two, and three-bedroom apartments that sleep anywhere from four to eight people, making it the best option on this list for larger groups who want to stay together. Cabot Circus is minutes away for those who want to shop, while Stokes Croft and the Cheltenham Road bar strip are close enough for a proper night out that doesn't involve getting a taxi home. If you want to feel like you're staying in the real Bristol rather than the sanitised version, this is it.

Best for: Groups who want to feel the city's pulse

Sleeps Up To: Between 2 - 6 People

Apartment Size: 1 Bed Apartments (with sofa beds)

From price: £80 per night
