Located on the outskirts of the city, it’s a short taxi from Bristol Parkway station.

There’s also plenty of parking space if you’d rather drive, including some with electric charging points.

What’s Mollie’s Motel Bristol like?

The beautiful interiors, great food and super friendly staff made it one of the best places I’ve stayed in the UK.

The hotel is simple but stylish – think wood-panelled walls and duck egg blue furniture, with retro light fittings.

Download the app before you get there, as you can check in, pre-book the restaurant and electric car charging bays, and pair with the Smart TVs in the room.

What is there to do at Mollie’s Motel Bristol?

The lobby is perfect for co-workers with plugs and free tea and coffee, as well as an outdoor terrace.

You’re also near the Cribbs Causeway shopping centre which has all the popular high street stores as well as a cinema, restaurants and Hollywood Bowl.

What is there to eat and drink at Mollie’s Motel Bristol?

You don’t need to go anywhere as Mollie’s Diner on-site serves breakfast, all-day lunch and dinner.

Word of warning, the food portions are American sizes so you will be well-fed with huge burgers and BBQ chicken, along with milkshakes to finish.

Make time for Waffle Wednesday – my favourite was the Oreo and cream.

Wash it all down with unlimited filter coffee, too.

What are the rooms like at Mollie’s Motel Bristol?

All of the rooms are the same size, although have a range of twin, double and bunk beds, many of which can be joined for families.

Each has swanky Cowshed toiletries, which you can also buy at reception, as well as a very fancy Dyson hairdryer and GHD straighteners.

There is tea and coffee in the room, but don’t worry about boiling a kettle as instant hot and cold taps can be found in the hallway.
