# Regus Castlemead

Castlemead is the 18-storey brutalist tower on Lower Castle Street that has dominated Bristol's skyline since the early 1980s. At about 80 metres it was the tallest building in the city for roughly four decades, until newer towers overtook it, and the operator still presents it as the place to aim high, with sweeping views from the upper floors. It stands on the edge of Castle Park, the green space that occupies the site of Bristol Castle, which gives the concrete tower an unexpectedly open foreground.

Regus has its serviced offices here, and the operator describes a bright, modern reception to welcome guests and meeting rooms with impressive views of the Bristol skyline. The listing names a lounge area, meeting rooms, parking, wheelchair access and surveillance cameras. The parking is the practical headline: on-site spaces are rare in the centre of Bristol, and they make the tower a realistic choice for visiting clients, sales teams and anyone who drives in from Gloucestershire, Somerset or South Wales.

The location is central without being in the busiest part of town. Castle Park is opposite, with the ruins of St Peter's Church, the old castle remains and a riverside walk; the Cabot Circus shopping centre is a short stroll to the east, and the Old City and the harbour are within easy reach. Bristol Temple Meads is about 1 km to the south in a straight line, and buses serve the streets around the tower. For evenings, the restaurants and bars of the harbour area, as the operator notes, are a short stroll away.

Compared with the harbourside offices, Castlemead gives you height instead of water. The upper floors look across the roofs of the Old City, the cathedral and the hills of Clifton, and a client meeting held at the top of a tower makes a different impression from one held in a ground-floor suite, and the daylight that reaches an upper floor is a quiet productivity gain for people who spend all day at a screen. Ask which floor your office would be on and what it faces, and if possible see it on a clear day, as the outlook varies between the park side and the city side.

Who is it for? Professional-services firms, consultancies, technology and digital companies, and the Bristol office of a national or foreign business that wants a recognisable tower address with parking. It suits a regional director who wants to show visitors a view, a sales team that needs parking for demonstration vehicles or samples, and a firm whose clients are public-sector bodies and corporates in the centre.

The trade-offs are those of a 1970s tower. The architecture is polarising, lifts and security add steps to every arrival, and the surroundings are busier and less pretty than the harbourside. If you want a historic Georgian address, Queen Square is the alternative; if you want a modern business park with easy motorway access, look at Aztec West or Almondsbury.

On the facilities side, a staffed reception, furnished offices and bookable meeting rooms come in the usual Regus format, and the lounge gives teams somewhere to take a call. The details of the office sizes and the finish are best judged on a visit, so ask to see the one you would actually take.

Availability, terms and contract length are for the operator to confirm. Ask which offices are free and on which floor, how the meeting rooms and lounge are booked, how parking is allocated and what access is like outside normal hours. A request through CoworkingView puts your team size and start date in front of the operator.
