Who are we?
The Lido is an outdoor swimming pool surrounded by an award-winning restaurant, tapas bar and spa. Dating back to 1849 the Lido is one of the oldest surviving Lido’s in the UK, allowing all-year-round swimming. The Lido opened its doors once more to Bristol and beyond in December 2008 and has since become a venue for every occasion from daily swims, celebrations and holidays. The award-winning restaurant is situated in the old viewing gallery of the Clifton Pool. The idea is for guests to sit back, enjoy being served by friendly staff whilst watching the swimmers below and your food being prepared in the Wood (now Gas fuel to support the survival of the environment) fired oven. Our Spa provides a holistic approach to tailored massages, using bespoke Lido oils, guests can relax while hearing the lapping of the water on the pool's edge.
Our unique setting sets us apart from many venues, and for that reason we are dedicated to recruiting a team that thrive on our values and ethos so that every guest leaves with that same feeling of calm and wellbeing.
