Village Hotel Bristol in Bristol

If you're looking for something totally different from your average stag hotel then Village Hotel Bristol ticks all the boxes. It then redesigns all the boxes, adds funky cushions and then takes them to the gym before treating them to a coffee and a bagel.

Eight miles from Bristol city centre this designer hotel is a definite swerve from traditional stag weekends. You won't find guys in matching T-shirts, power drinking and arm wrestling. You'll find one of the UK's coolest hotel chains where they like to do things differently.

Just like any early risers, let's start in the state-of-the-art gym. For casual runners and big lifters, the fitness centre is fully equipped with a brilliant selection of machines and free weights for proper gym bunnies. If weights and cardio aren't your things you can start the day with a few laps in the pool. Still too much? How about the jacuzzi or hot tub? If even that seems like a step too far, you can simply head to the Starbucks on-site and let the coffee beans work their magic.

Evenings can begin in the grill restaurant that serves a great selection of burgers, steaks, hot wings and more. Or simply head to the pub, kick back with a glass of something cold while watching big screen live sports. And Friday nights there's even a happy hour with tiki cocktails! Grab your hula skirts and step this way!

As well as complete access to the gym and free parking, the hotel offers free WiFi plus tea and coffee facilities. Guest rooms have even more gadgets to enjoy, with Alexa in every room and HD TVs. The Premium Club rooms even come with Tassimo coffee machines and iPads.

All funky gadgets, cool designer touches and relaxing spaces: this is the beginning of totally modern weekend for cutting edge stags.
