Abbey Hotel Bath, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
4/5115 Reviews
Bath City Center
Bath Abbey Hotel, a Marriott Tribute Portfolio Property I booked this hotel in Bath through trip.com. I took advantage of two promotions on the platform: a £5.99 railcard purchase and £5 off train tickets, both requiring booking a European hotel within 26 days through trip.com. Considering that the official website’s prices were quite similar, I went with the trip.com booking. I reserved a cozy room for 1 adult without breakfast for £113. Money-saving tip: I used TopCashback to access trip.com, earning $7.67 cashback for this booking. After I checked out, trip.com triggered an immediate discount of £10.46, which I applied to my next train ticket purchase. ❤️ Third-party Marriott members get perks, too! This hotel falls under the Marriott Tribute Portfolio, embracing a boutique hotel approach. The entire establishment dates back to 1739, boasting a historic exterior. It’s conveniently situated just about 3 minutes’ walk from the Roman Baths and across from Sally Lunn’s. With my Marriott Platinum Card, even with a third-party reservation, the hotel upgraded us to a larger ground floor room facing the street after matching our account, but it’s not advisable due to potential noise. They also offered complimentary à la carte breakfast. Breakfast slots had to be reserved during check-in, and we chose a table at 10 AM. The breakfast was abundant, and the restaurant had a charming and lovely atmosphere. The experience was excellent (the best things are free!). Unfortunately, I don’t have space for more photos, but I’ll post one of the restaurant later. The room was quite small, designed in a modern British style, with a movie-themed decor according to the posters on the wall. All the amenities were provided, with local brand toiletries available for purchase at the front desk for £25 for two bottles. They were decent, but nothing extraordinary to consider bringing back home. The minibar had coffee, various teas, semi-skimmed milk packets, and biscuits. The bottled still water was in an aesthetically pleasing canned form. 🌟 There’s an Elemis sleep kit on the bedside: temple balm/sleep mist/eye cream, placed over a hotel postcard, looking quite exquisite. The bed was very comfortable. ❌ However, there were a few drawbacks to this place… a bit unnerving… I’m not sure if I just had bad luck. The hotel corridors were somewhat confusing, and I accidentally opened the wrong room door once using my own room card. Strangely, the next day around ten o’clock, while I was in the bathroom and my son was on the bed, despite securing the latch on our door, someone managed to open it slightly, presumably seeing my son on the bed, and then closed the door. Perhaps it was a housekeeping staff member wanting to clean the room? Regardless, it felt quite odd… a little unsettling, to be honest

The location is amazing. If you come to Bath by train, you must stay at this hotel. It is just across the road from the train station, and it is convenient to go shopping. Very old English hotel with great breakfast and great service.
Sand Bay Holiday Village - Adults Only
3.6/592 Reviews
This was our 4th visit/break here in the last 12 months. This was the first fri-mon stay(3 night) as we would normally opt for the 4 night mon-fri. However this was their first West End break and we were not disappointed (unless you ask if we had wished it was longer). We, as always, booked club rooms. This gives a better quality room, early check-in, bottle of wine, tea, coffee and milk etc, and a newspaper each day. Having said that we have met others who regularly use the standard rooms and have never heard any complaints. The entertainment, as always, was first class, and plentiful. There was daytime entertainment, quizzes, games etc and karaoke during our stay. In addition there is a chip and putt course... although there are no ”greens” , which often adds to the fun(or pain). There is a crazy golf course and an area for boules. Indoors there is a pool table, snooker room with ”free light” and a couple of table tennis tables. The swimming pool hasn't reopened yet but it is not far off being completed. The bar, cafe and reception staff are extremely helpful and always have a smile and greeting for us. The bluecoats work hard to keep us all entertained. Finally a word about the guests. Yes, the majority of guests are boomers, so if you don't like words and phrases like ”after you”, ”please”, ”thank you”, or don't like the door being held open for you (whether male or female), maybe this place isn't for you. The guests here are polite and cheerful, just the way we like it
Holiday Inn Express Bath
4.3/5129 Reviews
Just returned from a 2 night stay and the hotel was spot on ! I had to ring the evening before as I had booked the wrong date, Sam was super helpful and continued to be so when we checked in the following day and he was on reception, greeted me as a gold member . He had a room ready and offered an early check in, and even accommodated ensuring I had a quiet room. Breakfast was better than expected considering it was included, and there were plenty of extra tea bags and coffee sachets by the lifts if you needed more for your room. Staff were friendly and room was basic but comfortable - as advertised ! Big thanks to Sam, as this trip could have started very differently ….. Will definitely work myself back to platinum with IHG now. :-)
The Gainsborough Bath Spa
4.7/548 Reviews
Bath City Center
Had high expectations of my stay and it was completely fulfilled and I was impressed. Overall welcome and ambience was just right being professional and sincere. Our bed room, junior suite after upgrading with extra fee, was reasonably sized although the bathroom with the layout of the door made it difficult and slightly dangerous to enter / close behind guest. The spa village was busy but understandable; it felt clean and very updated overall so there was less of a concern on hygiene which is understood can be difficult to maintain standards. The breakfast room, choices and service was fine as expected so it’s worth signing up for. Although by day 2, it was hard fo imagine having another breakfast so possibly having breakfast for one day as an option would be good. Would have liked to have body lotion in bathroom as I had to rely on the one available in the spa village… and with 2 nights stay, toiletries were not replenished … Always a nice welcome when soft drinks / mini bar is complimentary ; although it doesn’t cost a lot to fill a fridge but small gestures like these make guests feel more welcomed Thanks for a great stay; would like to take my 80 year old mum here sometime in future as she would enjoy it tremendously !!
DoubleTree by Hilton Bath
4.3/5188 Reviews
Location of the hotel is superb, with walking distance of 10 minutes to the city centre near Romans bath. General atmosphere of the hotel is good. Room is comfy and nicely decorated. However, when we first got into the room, I noticed there was a used bath towel (probably left by the previous guest) left hanging inside the bathroom which is not so good…..😊 Otherwise it is good and I highly recommend it to everyone seeking a decent good hotel near city centre.
Lansdown Grove Hotel
4.2/5119 Reviews
This hotel is in a beautiful building that was originally a house. It's sits on top of a very steep hill and therefore has excellent views of the city below. The incline is a difficult walk but there is a bus that drops ypu right outside from the city centre (number 31) . Recommend this option after a day of walking ! It's about a 10-15 min walk straight down the hill into the city,along a busy raod . However, the hotel is quite close to the Royal Crescent. I recommend walking that way into town as there is less traffic and a wonderful park (Royal victoria park) that leads straight into the heart of Bath centre. The park also has a botanical gardens should you want to visit plus an excellent play park for children. Landsdown Grove is a good option if you enjoy being close to the attractions in Bath but with a bit more peaceful surroundings. The hotel sits in its own gardens but when we were there , there was a lot of building work going on. I understand this must be done to maintain the building but the gardens were littered with workmans equipment, parts taped off and drilling ,banging and loud talking from very early in the morning. Workmen were also at room windows, making it slightly uncomfortable. Not sure why unoccupied rooms can't be done first or even later in the day when people are out. We booked a patio room. The doors opened out onto a little garden with table and chairs. The patio was shared with 2 other rooms which was fine as it was spacious. The rooms can be accessed via the grounds instead of walking through the hotel. However , this seems to be a gathering place for staff on breaks . This didn't bother me as such but when the builders were gathering there at 7 in the morning, talking loudly etc, it was off putting to sit out and enjoy a coffee. This wasn't very relaxing. At night though , it was quiet and even manged to see a friendly fox that visited each evening :) The room itself was accessed inside through a maze of corridors and steps. Wouldn't be suitable for anyone with mobility issues or prams. The room was clean , can't fault that. People have commented that the hotel is dated. It's an old building and it's huge. It's is dated in parts but that's to be expected. The issue I had was more that the cleaners items (hoovers , cages of laundry ,cleaning trolley) were littering the hallways and the builders tools littering outside in the grounds ,making it dangerous at times to navigate . The grounds also seemed neglected which is a pity. Our room was cold , even when I turned the heat up. It had tea and coffee making facilities and a mini fridge. Bathroom was nice with plenty of towels and hot water. The room decor was bright. Not a lot of space to move around though. Staff were friendly and helpful and aside from the manager (?) In the restaurant ,were knowledgeable about customer care. Restaurant itself was a huge let down. Breakfast was ordered from a menu , which I like because it's usually hotter. However, both m
The Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa

Bath City Center
Its meant to be a luxury-ish short weekend getaways before my job starts as my partner can't take a long leave. The delux double room is a huge disappointmemt.Understably, it is a very premium location and other guest probably pay a lot more. However, I wouldn't think of paying over £300 to get a room feeling like a old day servant's room. Being placed at the roof extension room with the view mostly blocked, the floor makes the typical old wooden cracking noise as we walk. The curtain, carpet and bathroom are not in the best condition. The glass on top of the table and desk are not well fitted. Another thing is that, without any previous notice, the spa closed foe maintenance the morning we leave. The fake plants make it look less luxury than its branded. The plus side, it is kind of inclusive which the spa pool, gym and breakfast are included. The breakfast is quite nice if you like English breakfast or they have some basic buffet.
Castle Hotel
4.2/559 Reviews
I booked a deluxe double room for just one night. We were very happy with our room, which was spacious, clean and well appointed. The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. The welcome from Reception was warm and friendly. There is parking at the hotel but this is run by NCP and costs just under £10 for a 24 hour stay. Payment is via an APP so I suggest installing that on your phone before you arrive. There is not the option to pay by cash or card at the machine. The hotel itself is very charming, with individually decorated bedrooms and a host of period features and furniture in the public rooms. We were meeting my son for dinner in a nearby restaurant for dinner so cannot comment on the Dining Room and we opted out of breakfast as we had an early lunch arranged. We did enjoy some cocktails in Brazz, where the service and quality of the drinks were appreciated.
Best Western Limpley Stoke Hotel

Lovely hotel with great views. Arrived quite late but the receptionist was very welcoming and had our room key ready. Chris working at the bar allowed us a quick drink before he closed up which we appreciated, after having a very long day. Lovely room and comfy bed, breakfast in the morning was sufficient.
