Very enjoyable stay.
Pros:

Didn't try breakfast, but had an evening meal that was delicious. Very clean comfortable room.

Cons:

Room was very warm. Couldn't open windows, we had to use a fan the whole time. Water ran cold.

Det var ok, men vil nok forsøge at finde et andet sted en anden gang i Bath.
Pros:

Det lå centralt ift. byen. Morgenmaden var ok god, især første dag.

Cons:

Det var noget slidt i kanterne. Og der var lidt trafikstøj. Udsigten var elendig… Og så lugtede der meget mærkeligt på vores værelse, da vi ankom, men det forsvandt efter vi lod vinduerne stå åbne under hele vores ophold.

Génial
Pros:

Personnel courtoie et efficace. Chambre spacieuse.

Cons:

Ce n'était pas la faute de l'hôtel, mais j'ai entendu les pas de la personne de la chambre située au-dessus de la mienne jusque tard dans la nuit.

LOVED it!! Such a great stay!
Pros:

We loved the staff and the facilities! It was super clean and quaint and right across from the train station in Bath. The staff gave us the best food recommendations and were so accommodating especially when we needed to store our bags there after check out. I would highly recommend this place!

Cons:

Nothing, it was perfect

世界遺産の街でクラッシック調のホテルに滞在
Pros:

駅に近く､市内中心にも歩いてアクセス可能。

Cons:

建物がクラッシックでそこが持ち味であるが故に､部屋にたどり着くのが迷路のようで､またWi-Fiなど電波の入りが悪い。

Brilliant - will remember the chats with the staff member on reception as the highlight of my stay.
Pros:

The staff were amazing - so friendly & had time to chat to someone travelling alone. The hotel is literally avross the road from the train station next to the new shopping centre and a stroll from the Abbey.

Cons:

Nothing - did not have any problems. I am positive the staff would have solved anything I needed but I had a good experience

Excellent location doesn’t justify high cost for tired and uncomfortable room
Pros:

The location is perfect, across the road from both train and bus stations and on the edge of the city centre.

Cons:

Availability of parking was a reason for booking but it wasn’t clear that this was charged as an extra on the booking website, which meant the overall cost was quite high.
The decor was “tired”, in need of a coat of paint, although it was clean.
The bed was not very comfortable, like sleeping on a trampoline! The pillows were awful and I regretted not bringing my own.
Our room was on the top floor and there was a pigeon infestation in the roof which was noisy and disconcerting.
I have had much cheaper and more comfortable stays in other Bath hotels and wouldn’t choose this one again, despite the excellent location

Pros:

The building is beautiful. Luckily they have not made a make over, and it still has that old classic hotel vibe.

Located directly opposite Bath station.
Pros:

Convenient location. Nice staff. Was able to leave luggage whilst waiting from my room. Pretty reasonable (for Bath) price for a single room.

Cons:

Room very hot and noisy (some mechanical-electrical equipment outside that ran all night). So not a great night's sleep.

A very pleasant stay in a conveniently located hotel which provides good customer service.
Pros:

The location opposite the railway station is excellent if you are travelling by train.
A nice looking historic building
Room was comfortable, a little noise as it was directly overlooking the station area but not excessive.
There is a bar and brasserie, we ate in the brasserie in the evening and the good was good. Also good service at breakfast.
Staff were very helpful and polite.
One feature we appreciated was that there was a free luggage storage facility available after check-out which made our second day exploring Bath much better unburdened by lots of luggage, it was easy to pick up our bags on our way back to the station to take the journey home.

Cons:

Very little. Lots of people milling around the general area on Saturday night but that was not really the fault of the hotel.

Both days I used bus or train transportation which was very handy from this hotel location.
Pros:

Room worked well for a single person and the location was excellent.

Cons:

Shower was a little too hot and I couldn't get it cooler. Might have been user error.

Mucho ruido, una lastima.
Pros:

La ubicación es perfecta para poder visitar la ciudad. El desayuno esta bien y en general los servicios que da el Hotel.

Cons:

Lo peor de todo es el ruido de la calle que se escucha dentro de la habitación, no hay prácticamente insonorización. Al estar pegado a la estación de tren, un semáforo con el pitido de paso para los invidentes, los coches al pasar y la propia gente. Es muy difícil conciliar el sueno y descansar. Una lastima porque el hotel en si esta bien.

Pros:

Skvělé místo, těsně u vlakového i autobusového nádraží, pár kroků do srdce Bathu, stejně jako k procházce podle kanálu Avon - Kennet
