The building is gorgeous. There is a wonderful self catering kitchen (though it could use a cooktop). The views are extraordinary. And the staff is stellar to a person!!!

I had a good stay at the YHA in Bath. The staff were helpful, and the facilities were clean. It was great to have an extra toilet in the dorm room. The bed was comfy and everyone in the dorm was considerate and kept noise levels down. The location is great for exploring Bath.

Bath YHA is set high on a hill just outside the city centre, but is well serviced by public transport. A beautiful, calming green space with nearby walks into town with breathtaking views. The staff were friendly and helpful, our private family room suited our purpose well, and the breakfast (extra cost) was decent. Would recommend the Bath YHA as a great budget option for exploring beautiful Bath.

We really enjoyed our stay at YHA Bath during the Jane Austen festival. Simone went above and beyond, giving us great recommendations for local restaurants, sights to see and how to get to places. She let us store our luggage before check-in and after check-out so we could explore the surrounding area. She even took photos for us when we got dressed up for the ball!

It was my first time staying at one of the YHA hostels in bath. Their service was great! They have a self catering kitchen and great food and meals daily. The rooms were very clean and it had a great view of the city. Highly recommend it. 10/10

Great views from property and surrounds. Good staff. Overpriced food and drink at house- TV dinner quality for restaurant prices and charges for everything. But clean room, good bed, and decent spot- overpriced for a hostel but every thing is in that town. Family- multigenerational friendly
