We’ve stayed here several times.p and always been very happy. Our room was recently updated and was very good, the building work was ongoing, but didn’t disturb us. It did mean the small car park was closed, but public parking is within a few minutes walk.

Our stay was perfect and we look forward to staying there again. They were in the process of renovating some parts of the hotel when we stayed there and we were able to stay in one of the new rooms. It was fabulous. The staff was very helpful and kind. The hotel is walking distance of the Roman baths and the Jane Austen center and a lot of great restaurants and shops.

Our newly renovated room was amazing, but it was super difficult to come and go. The construction workers lectured us about walking down the hallway to our room. We had to arrive and exit through the back alley way through a construction zone. We even had to carry out our luggage through the back alley way when we left. The construction workers would wake us up at 6:00 a.m. banging right outside our room. It was awful. I understand and appreciate remodeling, but I don’t want to pay to be in the middle of it!

Superb staff saved the day for this property The internal condition of the hotel and our room were lovely - but the external renovations are making the reception to room experience pretty horrible. Once these external works are completed all should be well I rate highly the door guys, bar staff and restaurant team (fantastic food) The reception staff fall short and are not helping at all with the issues arising from the renovation.
