Brooks Guesthouse is a mid-range boutique hotel with a fun retro vibe located right next to the lively St. Nicholas Market in the center of Bristol. The 23 guest rooms run small and are sparsely furnished, but are clean and comfortable overall, save for a few signs of wear and tear. The Rocket Rooms are actually vintage-style camper trailers parked on the hotel's roof, but come equipped with all the comforts. Wi-Fi is free while breakfast is charged extra -- but it's pretty cheap if booked via the hotel website. The garden courtyard offers a place for guests to relax outdoors with a drink from the honesty bar. On the downside, noise from nearby bars is an issue, and there's no parking. For a property with more features, including a mini gym, travelers could consider the Holiday Inn Bristol City Centre.
