really nice accommodation and perfect location. Its in Clifton so its out of the main city but still very accessible for everything. I love walking around Clifton and the bridge is a really nice place to chill out. The cleaners are good at cleaning but sometimes take things abit too far, going through our cupboards to remove bottles, removing things from out pin boards. Socially its really good - the layout helps with this really well.

lovely accom, great location, and decent sized rooms. the gardens are lovely during the summer and the study zone is so helpful during exam season when the library is full. the jcr my year was really good, so i’m assuming they get a large budget. some of the showers have hot water issues- often you couldn’t get more than about 5 minutes of hot water in mine, but friends in other blocks didn’t have this issue. they aren’t always the most responsive in terms of maintenance requests, our extractor fan was broken from day one and they refused to fix it which led to mould growth, and i had a mould issue due to broken heating in my room during first term which took them a long time to fix. also, the clifton hill house postal room (where goldney post goes) is quite ****. they often loose packages or hold letters for weeks. be prepared to go bankrupt over the washers and dryers, they never work, and you end up losing a lot of money. NEVER use washer or dryer one, they’ve never worked.

Very nice accommodation, fairly close to the Uni (15-minute walk), and close to Sainsbury's and Clifton Suspension Bridge. The gardens are lovely on a sunny day, and the accommodation feels very safe. Rooms are nice, with adjustable heating, but can be a little drafty, and vary in size between standard rooms quite a bit. Some rooms get balconies, others don't, and some rooms are large whilst others are smaller. The disparity between sizes isn't too large tho. Cleaners arrive on the same day, at the same time, and clean the kitchen, corridor, and bathrooms very well, but will complain if the kitchen is left too messy. All repairs are done in a fairly timely manner. Nice quiet study space available, as well as a common room which has a pool table and foosball. Would recommend to anyone considering Goldney!

Goldney is exactly the same as every other bristol halls, expect you pay a lot more for it. The nice rooms you see on the website are not the reality. Expect more of a prison vibe, with less windows. The grounds are nice, but ask yourself - how much do u really wanna walk around a scenic garden in the rain. The bar is out of service, and the social areas of flats have to be kept clear in case of fire, so you're pretty much limited to the kitchen (if you're lucky enough to have working lights that is). A lot of the bathrooms are also out of action/only work intermittently. If you went to private school and like d n b, then this is the halls for you. It has somehow got the reputation as the nice halls, possibly because there's a cat, but I really wouldn't recommend it. Go to a cheaper halls and save your money.

Great people, place is a bit dated but everything works fine. Quite expensive for what it is.

Absolutely beautiful! Just the experience of living there, being able to walk round the gardens to relax or sit in the sun is worth every lack of star here. The cleaners we had were pretty grumpy, but all the other staff were hugely friendly, and really supportive in crises. Great location if you don't mind a hill (and at least you get leg muscles). If I had to choose all over again I'd go wholeheartedly for Goldney.
