Personal comments
You hardly can get bored in Bristol during the night: go to Bristol Academy or Creation if you like hip-hop and r'n'b music (on thursday), try to get into the Massive Attack club, don't miss all the clubs on the Watershed. Enjoy tipical English pub from 7pm till 11pm: if you like jazz and want to have fun, go to the Old Duke.
To dance salsa or just to breath a "latin atmosphere" go to Fiesta Havana (my favourite!)...

Personal comments
In my opinion it's very useful to attend the House Search Event before the starting of the term because it gives you the opportunity to find easily an accomodation. Morover, the Accomodation office is always available to give you advices or to help you if you have any problem with you landlord.
