Great location
Pros:

Location was perfect. Room was comfortable although it was a little cold as the heating wouldn’t work. Room had shower gel soap tissues nice towels. Coffee and a good selection of teas. Biscuits and a little late night mint. Food in the restaurant was OK but staff were excellent.

Cons:

I phoned the hotel the day before and was told everything was good and I had parking available. When I got to Bath and rang because I couldn’t find the car park to the hotel I was informed there was only parking for 6 cars and they were full. I had to park in the multi storey and incur £41 in charges. Had I known about the parking I would not have stayed there and booked a hotel with parking even though I might have cost more! I found a tablet by my bed on the second night I was there which had a had a child could have been dangerous- but where did it come from.

Zou hier zeker terug komen
Pros:

Erg charmant hotel gevestigd in een prachtig oud pand, direct naast het station van Bath gelegen. Hangt een fijne sfeer in het hotel en het personeel is behulpzaam en vriendelijk.
Het is fijn om in de ochtend een Egg Benedict te kunnen bestellen. Dit is inclusief bij het ontbijt.
Mijn 1 persoonskamer was charmant ingericht. Het bed was perfect.

Cons:

De kamer was wat te klein. Geen bureau of mogelijkheid om nog even de laptop open te klappen.
Op de badkamer is te weinig ruimte om de toilettas inclusief spullen fatsoenlijk neer te zetten. Zeker voor de zakelijke reiziger is het aan te raden om geen 1 persoonskamer te boeken.

A convenient and classy hotel with good restaurant food.
Pros:

The hotel is right opposite the station and in walking distance of the main sites. My room, though small, was beautifully decorated.

Cons:

I found it hard to get hot water. Boiled a kettle in order to wash. Fortunately I didn't need to shower. It might have been a problem if I was staying longer.

Comfortable and cosy. Excellent breakfast . Perfect location.
Pros:

Location couldn’t be better for city and train station .
Breakfast was excellent . Great choice of hot and cold including fish . Beautifully cooked and presented.

Cons:

We were originally given an old outdated tatty room but as soon as I mentioned this to reception we were immediately moved and upgraded to a new room . ( which I think most rooms have been refurbished ? ) I would still stay here again .
