Bathroom wooden panels shabby
Bathroom shabby, sink had big splintered crack,hole in enamel which had clearly been there a long time. Wooden panels in bathroom & door plinth to bathroom very shabby. Bedroom itself was great. Bathroom let it down. Lovely Elemis products in bathroom, bed comfy. Breakfast was ok. Coffee was weak (basically hot coloured water) & waited 10 mins for it. Hot cooked breakfast took 20 mins to arrive. Croissant was stale (it made a sound on the plate when tapping it!). The bread my poached eggs were served on tasted stale. Staff were excellent, very professional, hotel was beautifully decorated with Christmas decorations. Lovely hot outdoor pool, steam sauna wasn’t working, dry sauna was great, ice room was great, indoor pool was quite cold.

Great break
Beautiful hotel and great service. We stayed for one night whilst visiting the Bath Christmas Market which was in walking distance. We ate in the restaurant and had the Christmas menu. The starters were good but the main course was a little basic, the desert was amazing and we ate everything and left full. Its not cheap, but it was a nice treat to ourselves. The Spa facilities are good, although one of the saunas was out of order but they do have 2. We had a really nice suite in the Imperial Apartments. A really nice break and would recommend to everyone

Disappointing..
We've stayed a few times at this hotel. On this occasion there was a different vibe. The rooms were clean and tidy. Very comfortable apart from the heating system. The room was cold and the thermostat was uncontrollable. The receptionist explained that the rooms are set with a communal heating system.(around 30 rooms). The bar staff (1 person) on the evening just didnt want to engage. AS if they were reading from a script and just did not want to be there. The wine list was confusing. You can ask for a glass only on some wines that suggest you can only buy a bottle. The Merlot is a good example. When in the restaurant, the waitress suggested get your own drink from the bar as it would be quicker. The restaurant was clearly understaffed. On order we were not informed of dishes that were not available.After a long wait again to order. In all fairness the meal i had was excellent. . Having spoken with the manager on duty the next morning, she was very understanding and apologised on behalf of the management staff. I did explain we were only for the one night, but best to report the cold room. It wouldn't be fair for the next person to check in the same room. So hopefully it was corrected.

We had an excellent time during our stay at this hotel, which has become a yearly tradition for us. This was our third time here, and we keep coming back because it consistently delivers a fantastic experience. The hotel is clean, safe, and beautifully decorated, especially during Christmas—it really adds to the festive atmosphere. One of our favorite features is the heated outdoor swimming pool. There’s nothing quite like enjoying a warm swim on a chilly night. The ambiance is relaxing and inviting. However, we would love it if the pool’s opening hours could be extended until 10 pm instead of closing at 9 pm. While most aspects of our stay were superb, the breakfast experience fell a little short. The staff seemed rushed, and the options were not clearly communicated. Although we paid for breakfast, we were surprised to find additional charges for certain items like a cappuccino. While this was resolved at checkout without any issue, it would be great if the complimentary options were explained more clearly and offered proactively. Overall, though, everything else was fantastic, as it has been every year. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
