Sleep close to
Bristol Airport

Bristol Airport sits in the countryside on the A38, so only a few beds are close. Here is how many minutes each one really is on foot to the departures entrance, and why a city hotel can work for a 06:00 flight too.

What you only find here

Booking sites say "100 m" from the airport. We worked out the walking route from each bed to the departures entrance on the map, and checked the official bus timetable data: the A1 to Bristol runs all night, so a city hotel also works for the first flight.

Pick the one that fits

Very early flight

Sleep at the Hampton by Hilton for a 5-minute walk, or in the city and take the A1, which also runs at night.

You land late

The A1 runs day and night, so you are not stuck at the airport after a late landing.

You like to walk

Forge Motel and Hathway House are about 11 minutes on foot. The Lodge and Cedarwood are about 18 minutes.

You come by car

Ask your hotel about parking during your trip. We did not check parking rules for this page.

  • The walk from The Lodge uses 62 m of West Lane, with no pavement on the map. Take care in the dark.[8] Calculated from map data

Times, routes and fares can change. We show what the official source said on the date we checked it; always check the operator before you travel.

How we know

Every fact has a label

Measured by us

Someone from our team checked it on the spot, for example walked the route with a stopwatch. We say when.

Calculated from map data

Worked out from OpenStreetMap, for example a walking time along the footpaths. Good, but nobody walked it for this page.

Reported by official source

Taken from the airport, the transport company or the hotel's own website, with the date we checked.
