A gem in Bath
Pros:

I have stopped in many hotels over the years and this is by far the best I’ve stayed at.
It’s quirky and full of charm the minute you enter the reception area. The rooms were beautiful and the little touches, like the the sweet and drinks area area, made it stand out even more. The staff were all friendly and knowledgeable of the local area. I will definitely be returning!

Overnight stay in Bath
Pros:

We had to stay in Bath overnight so our daughter could attend an interview nearby and we traveled down from Sheffield so needed something quite central to Bath but with parking facilities. We were so impressed on arrival with the warm friendly welcome and the beautiful decor and furnishings. Our rooms were very comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. Just a short 10 min walk in to Bath which was great and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We appreciated all the nice touches at the hotel which just showed us that the team really care about their customers experience.

Recent Stay, Slightly Underwhelming
Pros:

We stayed for the night in Feb 2026 and were somewhat underwhelmed by the Bird.

The room was ok, but lacked the finishing touches that would make it justify the price tag and reputation.

Our stay was also disrupted by a 3am fire alarm for which we received no apology on check out.

Quirky and beautiful place to stay in Bath
Pros:

Lovely comfy stay in a small but perfectly formed “Dinky Room”. Great nights sleep and the perfect morning shower with delicious Bramley products and fluffy towels. Breakfast was a treat with the best porridge EVER. Service was friendly and welcoming - what a great team. Will definitely be back when I need another trip to the Thermae Spa. Thank you!

Review of deluxe king room with Jacuzzi bath
Pros:

The staff who work here are excellent and we received a warm welcome to the hotel.

We stayed in the deluxe king room, which was beautifully furnished and had a lovely Jacuzzi bath and rainfall shower. There were also some nice touches to our stay, like access to a free larder and water and rocky road provided for our journey home.

The only thing that was a slight negative for us was the position of the room next to the restaurant. It was quite odd to have people hanging up their coats next to our room door and the restaurant was quite noisy at night.

Gorgeous hotel and great location
Pros:

Just spot on overall. Lovely staff, incredible rooms, great service, walking distance to everything. We got a package that included time at the Thermae Spa and we walked there in a few minutes. The roll top bath was well worth it. Just everything. Had the sleep of the century in that bed! Just the nicest staff as well, especially in the restaurant. Can't reccommend enough. We'll be back!

Perfect
Pros:

Great location really close to the roman baths. When we got there we realised the pillows and duvet were feathers which we are both allergic to, we called down to reception and the woman on duty brought us some new pillows and a duvet and took the feather ones away. They also have a complimentary sweet stand with a drink fridge at the bottom of the stairs. The water pressure in the shower was amazing.

Cons:
