Top drawer!
Couldn’t be better placed for the major sights of Bath. The suite was a great standard and the extra touches very pleasant. Great gifts and little touches that made all the difference. If I had one criticism, there were three of us in the suite. It should have been set up with each towel size times three and the same for toiletries.

Never stayed in a 5* hotel before so nothing to compare it to but definitely seemed a high quality hotel. Disappointing that my pregnant wife was not even allowed to sit in the pool area though

I stayed here for my birthday and it was absolutely phenomenal. The breakfast was the best I’ve ever had, and the staff could not help you enough! The Spa facilities are small but never busy and exquisite. I left feeling like a new person- thank you so much!

The stairs were stained and dirty throughout the building. The bathroom was also dirty. The bed was really droopy in the middle and also very bouncy every time you moved on it. The rooms are located on a busy street with people Shouting outside until 2.30am. You have to pay EXTRA £70 per person to use the on site Spa facilities at a normal time. Which is a Bit of a Con after paying £350/night for a room identical to a Premier Inn room…
