The beautiful scent in reception - I wish I could buy it for my home! Gorgeous room, comfortable bed and pillows, spa was a delight. Vellore restaurant was lovely.
An amazing hotel from start to finish. The staff cant be more friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and fresh looking with robes and slippers provided. A bottle of water is also provided on arrival alongside biscuits, teas and coffees. Lovely cooked breakfast in the morning.
Bath main town is a short walk away (15 / 20 mins) but be aware that there is a steep hill returning back to the hotel if walking that might be a challege for those less mobile.
Would highly recommend a stay here.
Room was good
Location great ten minute uber to the centre for £7/8
Spa is nice for a hotel spa
Decoration for Xmas time was lovely
Only thing that let it down was the breakfast it was very poor and not worth the money and very poorly organised
Handsome hotel, lovely grounds and interior. Staff friendly and helpful.
Parking for disabled a little limited and required a walk.
Our room was impressive but also a little tired.
We had a wonderful stay at this luxurious period property and the spa facilities were an added bonus. Some areas were in need of some TLC, but we appreciate the enormity of maintaining a building of this scale.
