Hotel Bristol

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

These hotels have nothing in common with each other except for their name. There appears to be a single reliable source discussing it (the Earl's biography) and that, in my opinion, does not confer notability on its own. TallNapoleon (talk) 18:59, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep, it's interesting and noteworthy. Gryffindor (talk) 21:42, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 *  Delete Keep - the article seems to be based on the contents of the book called The Hotel Bristol Project (citation 1 in the article) which seems to be wholly unnotable. I'm surprised this article has gone unnoticed for so long! Sionk (talk) 21:44, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Vote' changed. The general news sources about Hervey, pointed out by Arxiloxos and Ghmyrtle below, convince me I was wrong. Sionk (talk) 09:51, 17 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep. The Wall Street Journal article, currently listed under external links, demonstrates and describes the notability of the topic.--Arxiloxos (talk) 06:02, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep The tale of Frederick Hervey's travels giving rise to so many hotels of this name appears in numerous books. Warden (talk) 22:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't that best go on a page about Harvey? TallNapoleon (talk) 16:07, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep and improve per Arxiloxos' suggestion and other sources such as and, which provide the basis for an interesting and informative article.  The article on Frederick Hervey, 4th Earl of Bristol also needs improvement.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 09:33, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
