Bristol Vacation Homes

When the Bristol Gas and Electric Company was purchased in 1910 the new owners donated this advertising sign. The “Mammoth Electric Sign”, measuring 60’ wide by 35’ high, was shipped by rail and dedicated on July 4 to a crowd of over 3,000 citizens. For its first five years it was perched on the top of The Interstate Hardware building until it was removed in 1915 to its present location over State Street. The original slogan read, “Push, That’s Bristol”, which was the mantra for the era’s industrial “push” that centered in Bristol. In 1921 the polish of the sign had diminished Bristol’s marketing icon when its lights would flicker “PU” That’s Bristol or “SH” that’s Bristol, and a citywide campaign chose its current slogan. In 1988 it was accepted to the National Register of Historical Places.
In 2010 this enormous structure, the Bristol Slogan Sign, marked its 100th year on the eastern end of downtown Bristol, itself straddling State Street. It has been a part of community pride and the one structure in the city that has identified Bristol’s common purpose and heritage. The message on this sign has been the marketing slogan for the city for close to 90 of those years, and considered one of the oldest community slogans in the United States. It reads, “Bristol Va – Tenn, A Good Place To Live”.

Top Bristol Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Bristol

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent!! Clean and perfect room!! Definitely stay here again!!"

Extended Stay America Suites - Bristol

4/10 Poor

"It says they offer continental breakfast but they don't. They only offer muffins oatmeal packets and granola bars. The room was not very clean the shower head was disgusting I did not even shower. The pool was covered and drained. The beds were not very comfortable they are on Metal Frames and they're loud when you turn over. Not what I expected from an Extended Stay America."

Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Bristol

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very lovely 1 nt stay while receiving local VA services. We were early arriving, so 1st went to the Player’s Club desk w/ our Veteran IDs, where we were automatically upgraded to “Legend” status. We had lunch at the HR cafe & couldn’t have had friendlier service & b/c it was “Military Monday”, our lunch was 25% off! Hubby liked the mahi sandwich (we split) more than I did, but the fries were spot on."
