Really comfortable hotel with great facilities and excellent location and staff.
Pros:

Staff were so lovely and helpful. Our room and particularly the bed was really comfortable and the room was quiet. We ate at the hotel on the Friday evening, service was excellent, food was good but not great.
You couldn’t get a better location you could walk everywhere. We booked a space in the car park which was just a few minutes walk away, we were asked to drop our bags before parking, we then parked the car and walked back at which point our bags had been taken to our rooms. The staff at this hotel went above and beyond to make our stay really enjoyable. Thank you.

Cons:

Food was average which didn’t fit with the quality of the rest of the hotel.

Pros:

Excellent location, excellent service and attention to detail with the room and facilities. Extremely clean and very helpful and assisting staff. Would stay here again.

Cons:

Wasn't informed there was no available parking prior to arrival. However parking round the corner at the Central parking in Bath, turned out to be cheaper anyway.
