During the warmer weather there are several live music events, so there is a potential for noise. However, there is a city ordinance that all music must end at 11 pm.


This building is over 100 years old and we have beautifully restored it. You will find lots of charm with a modern flair! We have preserved the original brick walls in the loft. We have very high cleaning standards, but you may find the naturally occurring brick dust occasionally. In the loft you will find exposed beams in the ceiling and lots of character throughout the loft.


We have several fitness centers located close by that offer daily rates.

Love this downtown Bristol property

I have stayed at Live like a local Loft three times now. I stayed in a different unit each time. The units are beautifully appointed, immaculately clean, and provide the guest with everything they need in the kitchen and bath. You feel as if you are in your own home. Karen Hester is very responsive to all messages and is ready to make your stay as pleasant as all three of my stays have been. I will stay here every time I visit Bristol in the future.
