Car Parking for Overnight Guests
Free parking is available for one car per room at the Cabot Circus multi-storey car park, located directly opposite the hotel.
From 4 November 2025, Cabot Circus will operate a paperless system. You will not receive a physical ticket on arrival. Please provide your vehicle registration number to our Reception Team, who will validate your free parking. Please note that refunds cannot be issued if your registration is not validated at Reception.
Any additional vehicles will need to be paid for separately. All traditional pay points have been removed. Instead, QR codes have been installed around the car park. Future Inns also have QR codes available at Reception for easy access. Guests should scan a QR code to access the payment page. If you intend to come and go from the car park during your stay, there is a Drive In Drive Out option, so you won't have to process a payment on each visit.
Car Parking for Restaurant & Conference Guests
Chophouse Restaurant diners receive 50% off parking. The process is the same - please give your vehicle registration number at Reception.
Business conference visitors can access discounted parking if arranged in advance.
Accessing the Car Park
EV Charging – Pod Point
Cabot Circus also offers Pod Point EV chargers for electric vehicles. These bays are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and standard Pod Point charging rates apply. Guests will need to follow the Pod Point app instructions to begin charging.
Drop Off Zone
To the rear of the hotel, there is a drop-off zone where parking is permitted for 15 minutes only. After this time, a parking charge notice will be issued.
Blue badge holders can park in the drop-off zone. These spaces are limited and are on a first-come, first-served basis. Your vehicle must be registered at Reception upon arrival; failure to do so will result in a penalty parking notice.
Please note that our hotel's drop-off zone is located within the Bristol Clean Air Zone. You may wish to double-check if you will be charged beforehand.
Bristol Clean Air Zone
Bristol's Clean Air Zone has been established to help reduce pollution and congestion, creating a healthier city. A daily charge is now in place. Many vehicles are exempt. You may wish to double-check if you will be charged beforehand.
Please note, to park at Cabot Circus and avoid entering the chargeable Bristol Clean Air Zone, you must use the M32 into the city. If your vehicle is not compliant and you enter and exit the car park via the main entrance, you will have to pay the daily charge. Enter via Houlton Street and exit again on the same street, turning right towards Lawrence Hill to avoid paying the daily charge. We recommend double-checking your car's eligibility before travelling.
