Lovely hotel

Lovely quality hotel with great attentive staff. Easy walking distance into Bath. So great location. The pool and spa area is looking a little tired. Some of the mosaic tiles are missing around the outside pool and because of this my hair was pulled a bit when it got caught in one of the gaps. Would be good if this is looked into

Enjoyable Easter Break.

My wife & myself spent 2 nights. The room was very nice, with a mix of traditional & modern elements. We had Easter lunch, which was excellent. The spa is a must to visit, the hydro-pool was a very pleasant surprise. Staff were very friendly & helpful throughout our stay. Very well situated for visiting Bath, with the bonus of hotel parking.

A beautiful hotel. The room was lovely, everything was very clean, the pool and spa area were great (we even used the outdoor pool as it was heated!) and the staff were all friendly and very helpful. It was about a 15 minute walk into the very centre of Bath through a nice park and less than 5 minutes in a taxi which we got in the evening. Would definitely recommend.
