The Bath Priory - A Relais & Chateaux Hotel

Underbart boende även om det börjar bli lite slitet, dock inget som störde

Hotel and staff were amazing from the moment we walked through the door they could not do enough to assist to make our stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible, I thought I had booked a twin bed room but was given a double, which was quickly resolved with no fuss, the breakfast was amazing, we did not use the spa but the gardens were also amazing an worth a little wander around.

This feels like a country spa hotel, but is within the beautiful City of Bath. It's an amazing place for a lovely relaxing break. I didn't try the smart dining room, but the casual bar and restaurant was perfect and the food was good. Loved the art and this really feels like a family run hotel. Room was gorgeous and I had lovely views across the beautifully kept gardens, which were lovely to explore. There was a Wedding reception in the gardens whilst I was there, and couldn't have been a more picturesque venue. Would definitely recommend for someone who wants a relaxing, quiet break with access to a historic city. I will go back.

Overall our stay was pleasant. The room and hotel itself is beautiful. Our issue came with the food. We wanted some food at about 9:15pm sent to our room and all that was available were tiny sandwiches which were not substantial. I have stayed at many 5 star hotels that offer far greater choice and variety with room service, especially when it’s at a relatively normal hour. We had high hopes for the breakfast but unfortunately was underwhelming for a whopping £30 per person I was expecting a lot more choice. The flavours and offerings for a 5 star hotel were sub par. The eggs benedict felt like it was made at a 2 star hotel. I would say that also waiting about 20 mins for each dish was far too long. It looks like the hotel is lacking a proper breakfast buffet reminiscent of what you would expect at a luxury hotel. It’s safe to say although the hotel is beautiful I will not be staying again although the spa and massages we had were lovely.

Great pool. Had the best whiskey sour ever. Room had leftover biscuit and peanuts behind to that added to the character. Fabulous service until the last breakfast which felt like it was struggling with limited staff! Would definitely stay here again.
