Chief Inspector Vicks Hayward-Melen confirmed the other victims were a seven-year-old boy and a three-year-old girl.
Officers were called to the property in the Sea Mills area of the city on Sunday morning by a member of the public concerned for the welfare of the people inside.
The victims, who have not been named by detectives, were found inside the property and pronounced dead at the scene just after 12.40pm.
