Tyndalls Park Hotel

Really enjoyed my visit. The ship is amazing and there is plenty to see and do around on the dock. The whole dock itself has been made into a museum with a horse-drawn carriage, travellers' trunks, anchors etc. On the ship, visitors can look in the bowels of the ship to see the propeller and up on deck, where there are seats to enjoy the view. The ship is supposed to be disabled friendly, with ramps and lifts.

However the lift wasn't working on the day we visited. There is a interesting shop and a museum. A cafe can be found near to the entrance with lovely fresh sandwiches, hot snacks and pastries. I would love to say it was an excellent facility, but we were totally ignored at the counter for quite some time before being served. There are plenty of toilets throughout.

They are very clean and the best thing is that one can read poetry whilst sat on the throne! If I could recommend something, it would be clearer signposting. All in all however, it was a great attraction, with plenty to see and do. I would certainly return.

This place has a lot of history. The ship is well maintained and its impressive how much they do to even maintain this ship. Specially to stop it from getting rusty. For a 10 additional cost you may climb up to the pole of the ship. The inside of the ship is well maintained and displayed. You can even smell the things inside the rooms which was really unexpected. Figures have been placed all over to explain what they do in each room. These figures are also well made. It's a must visit place if you are in Bristol. The ticket costs 19 and is valid upto an year

Day trip with daughter to look around ship. Very interactive and staff on board being informative. Definitely a good few hours walking round. Daughter loved it. Tickets last a year so Definitely get your moneys worth.

This really is an astounding museum. The ship is fantastic and the other exhibit and collections are also fantastic. But perhaps the most amazing thing, is the recreation of the lower decks with all the sights and sounds and the SMELLS. It really does feel authentic and you can easily imagine you are actually there on a voyage in the middle of the ocean.

The staff 'crew' all very knowledgeable and clearly love their roles and the ship. Really, this is one of the best living museum experiences you can have. I can't recommend it highly enough.

So much to see! The models and sound effects in the ship are incredibly realistic and really enrich the experience. The museum areas are extensive and give the site a 'tardis' like quality. One of the best gift shops I've seen in a while. Excellent value for money!

A fantastic floating museum (though, technically speaking, it is in dry Dock- few holes in the Hull, you know). Brilliant restoration that gave you a feeling of what it must have been like to travel to Australia in the 1800s. Certainly the size of the berths gave you a feeling for how much smaller people were then. The whole centre is worth a visit as the story of the SS Great Britain and how it came to return to Bristol is pretty incredible. You'll spend a good couple of hours there. And there's a little shop. Of course.

A great time for all ages, although starting to show its age when I was there with a few of the interactive bits not working. Ships wheel and propeller lift. Quite expensive at 19 per adult but you can easily spend 3 hours mooching around all the displays and the ship is amazing. Good Cafe, toilets and things to keep kids happy

An absolutely fantastic day out! Second visit in just a few months as you get free re entry for a year when you buy your tickets. Staff were so friendly and helpful and good with my little ones. There is so much to see and do, x2 museums, the boat itself, inside and out. Thoroughly recommend. Can't wait to go again!

It was interesting sight to see and definitely kids friendly with lots of games for kids, but there were no tour guides or electronic tours. It was great fun but not for those who are new to the site, I would say bring your reading glasses.

We had a fantastic morning visiting the SS Great Britain with our grand daughter. The volunteer staff were universally superb - special thanks to Sue Clerk and Roger for exceptional service. The dry dock was fascinating and being able to walk underneath the ship was quite incredible. It was also interesting to see the cabins that passengers had, certainly tougher people then than we are!

We will definitely be back to go through the areas we skimmed over as our grand daughter had reached the limits of her interest. Superb day and excellent value with the year ticket.
