Two groups peacefully gathered in Bristol city centre earlier to voice opposing views on immigration.
About 100 anti-immigration protesters turned up to a planned demonstration outside the Mercure Bristol Brigstow Hotel, which is housing asylum seekers, and near Bristol Bridge on Saturday afternoon.
A group of about 300 to 400 counter-protesters had arrived beforehand in support of the asylum seekers, surrounding the hotel.
Police kept the two groups apart for about 90 minutes until the anti-immigration protesters walked away.
Officers had been given enhanced powers which allow them to ask people to remove face coverings.
They have put in place a dispersal order which will allow them to move people on until 07:00 BST on Sunday.
