In ILGA-Europe‘s 2015 review of LGBT rights, the UK received the highest score in Europe, with 86% progress toward “respect of human rights and full equality” for LGBT people and 92% in Scotland alone.

My Partner and I have stayed at HDV The Sugar House twice now; once last December and then again this weekend. We book it confidently knowing that we are going to receive excellent service, a completely relaxing experience, great food and the best hotel room we know of in England. It is in a good location – the only thing that could be improved is if the hotel had free, on-site parking as the NCP car park adds on an additional £26 to the stay. As much as I love the individual L’Occitane toiletries’ on offer; they aren’t very eco-friendly and most hotels I have stayed in have now eradicated these to reduce plastic.
The reception team is fabulous, they will always go the extra mile to make sure your stay is amazing. A huge thank you to Jema at reception who always remembers us and our requests which is a lovely personal touch. The bar staff, bistro, housekeeping, I can’t praise them enough for always making our stay one to remember.
Room was great, only a standard but a good size with a huge bathroom equipped with a fabulous monsoon shower & claw foot tub. It was lovely & quiet, couldn’t hear the traffic outside at all. We ate in the restaurant and had a drink in the bar. The food & drink were lovely but it’s the HDV staff which make it.
ugely comfortable and pleasantly quirky. A real change from huge, bland corporate sameness.
Delightful old building, spacious standard room, good sound insulation (we faced the main road but heard nothing). Slightly noisy pipes in the middle of the night, but not too intrusive.
Excellent range of refreshments in the room.
Situated right in the middle of the city centre, 5mins stroll from the O2 Academy, Colston Hall and waterfront.
Loved the sensitively-converted old building, the beautiful bathroom (roll top bath; monsoon shower; fluffy bathrobes) and splendid breakfast fare. Lots of choice, hot and cold; plenty of treats and healthy options.
Plus points excellent service across the stay.
Bar is excellent – and open 24 hours.
We had a standard room, which had a great bathroom, lots of space, big bath, great walk in monsoon shower.
Minor issues – sleeping area in our standard room had a few issues. It’s in a historic building which creates some compromises. Tight spaces between the bed and other furniture, sloping ceiling very close to the bed. Room needed more power sockets.

The hotel couldn’t be more handy for the Cabot Circus Shopping Centre and a short walk to the Gay/Gay Friendly Venues in Old Market.
Our Superior Double room at the Future Inn was brilliant. The Hotel is in the most convenient of positions situated across the road from Bristol’s impressive Cabot Circus Shopping Centre.
The Reception was very welcoming, very clean with numerous sanitisers in convenient places, the Free Wi-Fi was very efficient and the Hotel has a small car park for which again there is no charge. Cooked Breakfasts are made to order, and the service was very good.
Our room was spacious and air conditioned. Although we were overlooking the main road and the shopping Centre opposite, it was quiet.
There are no rooms specifically for the less abled but there are good rails in the bathtub. We were very impressed with all the staff at the Future Inn which will be our No 1 choice Hotel for Bristol.
The sleek modern hotel is conveniently located by Cabot Circus shopping centre.
The free parking this hotel offers at Cabot Circus car park is a real money saver. It’s also only a 15 minute walk to the harbour and older areas of Bristol so you get the best of both worlds.
Great location, ten minutes walking from the coach station, shopping center opposite. The room was great, early check in, bed enormous super comfy and spotless (great job Housekeeping) staff friendly and polite.
The room was spacious, with a king size bed, a sofa, a table and 2 chairs, with a long workstation/dressing table . There was ample storage for clothes – a wardrobe and a separate drawer unit. An iron, ironing board and hairdryer were stored in the wardrobe. A bathrobe and slippers and provided. Parking is in the Cabot Circus car park, 40 metres away.
The reception staff were very efficient and friendly, as were the catering staff at breakfast. As stated, I was very happy with my stay and will be using The Future Inn as my hotel of choice when I am next in Bristol.
Staff are helpful and check in was easy and fast. We didn’t have dinner there, however there is currently a new menu (£18 – 3 course meal) to take advantage of. However, you are spoilt with choices just at the hotel’s door step. And then there’s the free parking and you can’t beat that for central Bristol.
Breakfast was good and filling and the choices were enough to satisfy all.
The room was spacious and comfortable, and when I needed to upgrade to a room with a bath it was very easy to do so. The staff were courteous and friendly. The food was very good, a little pricey, but there was also a set menu of upto 3 courses for only £18.00.
I personally would recommend the Fillet steak. There was one night though (Saturday) when there seemed to be a little issue with getting the food out in good time, but even during this the staff remained professional and friendly. The Hotel is conveniently placed across from Cabots circus shopping centre, then a further walk to another shopping centre. Also at this time of year there is a wonderful “German style” Christmas market.
