Default Bristol Advice please

So I have to be in a meeting in Lower Castle Street, Bristol. Next week.

Can anyone advise a decent local hotel, Budget ~£75 that has overnight carparking.

Is there any parking (all day) in the area of Lower Castle Street?

Thanks

Only just seen this but if it's not too late then for an extra £20 this is bang on where you need to be.

Or there's this one which is decent too and is a five minute walk away.

Worth a look to see if you can get a good deal at either one. All day parking can be had at either Cabots circus shopping centre or the mall galleries shopping centre which are both within a five minute walk also. I think there used to be an NCP on lower castle street next to the Marriott as well but can't remember if it's still there.

The company have booked me in the Ramada as I couldn't find anywhere that doesn't bust my hotel allowance, doesn't look to have a good write up though. It seems Bristol town centre is expensive! Why?

So tonights task is to find dinner at less that £18. (With of course a few beers)

Ramada's a decent hotel close to the station and a tip toe away from the city centre! You'll defo find places to eat for under £18 mate! I think the hotel has covered secured parking there on a first come basis but worth a check.
When do you arrive?

Decent maybe, but want to charge for internet. No way So got my 3g dongle plugged in. Seems clean enough, some building work going on so bar etc relocated into "ballroom". Got a few can with me as I don't fancy southern prices. that way my bar bill won't upset the bean counters.
