Getting to Bristol
From London Heathrow
There is a direct National Express Coach Service between Heathrow and Bristol. Alternatively, you can take the Heathrow Airport Express to London Paddington and a Great Western train from Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads station (NOT Bristol Parkway station). There is also a Railair link coach service which runs between Heathrow and Reading. Most Paddington to Bristol (Temple Meads) trains stop at Reading.
From Bristol Airport
Bristol International Airport is only 13 kilometres to the south of the city, situated beside the A38, as shown on the accompanying map. The airport has scheduled flights to many UK and European cities and charter flights to a wide variety of holiday destinations. For details, contact: Bristol International Airport, Bristol BS19 3DY, tel 0871 334 4444. Details of how to get to and from the airport are available on this phone number.
Alternatively, the Bristol International Flyer service operates between the airport and key destinations in Bristol. The 330 Flyer service stops at Clifton Triangle West (a five-minute walk from the University) and the 331 stops at Bristol Bus and Coach Station (a 20-minute walk from the University).
By rail
There are two mainline railway stations in Bristol, Temple Meads and Parkway. You are advised to arrive at Temple Meads as it is much closer to the selected Hotels and the Conference Venue, the Victoria Rooms in the University precinct at Clifton. From Temple Meads, you can take a bus or taxi to the hotels in Clifton or a taxi to the Ibis Hotel or Premier Inn. Walking to Clifton Hotels will take you about 30-45 minutes.
