Excellent stay, we would definitely rebook over any other hotel in Bath and would love to return!
Pros:

Hotel is wonderfully quirky, I had to take photos of the decor, all very well curated. Upgraded both our rooms on arrival. Both had great views. Fabulous breakfast which was ordered and served to us. Complementary waters, soft drinks, coffee machine, fruit choice and a sweetie bar. On departure we were given water and homemade flapjacks for the trip home. All the staff were a credit to the hotel. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Bath, the centre of which was only a 10 minute walk from the hotel.

Cons:

Parking charge of £20 per night seems a little steep but we did appreciate the freedom to park close to the hotel and not having to worry about the car being parked elsewhere.

Pros:

Everything! The Bird was an excellent hotel for us. Clean, quirky, modern bohemian vibe. Loved staying there..!!!

Cons:

Maybe the bathroom sink could have been smaller so I could get closer to the mirror for shaving, but I’m being picky here.

Overall an enjoyable stay in a quality hotel
Pros:

Friendly , helpful staff. Attractive surroundings.Delicious breakfast with homemade yoghurt and muesli a real winner. Quality towels,bedding and comfortable bed. Complimentary treats really appreciated.

Cons:

Unfortunately for us as we're older and less agile, the walk in shower I requested and the toilet and washbasin were actually in the bedroom itself and not in a separate bathroom. Although toilet and shower were either side of the wash stand,they were small and awkward for us to use. We'd definitely choose a different room next time.

Overall pleasant stay & positive experience but do check the parking issue point before you book !
Pros:

Nice, upmarket hotel and kind, hospitable team. Excellent breakfast.

The overall stay was pleasant and experience positive however notable negative issues are below.

Cons:

Watch out if you are booking because this place has parking.

Misleading information on this site states "Private parking is possible on site (reservation is not needed) "

Parking is in fact LIMITED on a first come first served basis and they only tell you this via email a few days before.

We had to park elsewhere which caused great inconvenience on check in and check out.


Not sound proofed so could hear extractor fans from other room and the piping to the bathroom heater was very noisy and didn't stop all night.
