If you want to spend your summer at the seaside, England is hardly the place to go, but Bristol is the exception. The proximity to the coast and the port have been for centuries an engine for the prosperity of this city and now it continues to boost the economy via tourism. Hotels are affordable and plentiful so you'll find the perfect accommodation with ease, even during the sunny summer days. Besides laying down on the beach, tourists are invited to visit some impressive sights such as the Bristol Cathedral and the Bristol Bridge. The architecture is amazing and for almost one thousand years, various styles have coexisted in harmony, resulting in this nice mix of buildings. In addition, the Bristol Industrial Museum and the Old Vic Theatre Royal complex are going to entertain tourists who leave the hotel during rainy days.
