[Zmugzy, 26.07.2007] According to the writer this hotel is a "stunning restored 19th-century mansion" that was returned to its "original grandeur" after the building had served a number of different uses. The Bath Spa hotel is situated "at the end of a tree-lined drive on 2.8 hectares of landscaped grounds" and is no more than a "10-minute walk from the centre of Bath".
Inside the hotel guests will discover "log fireplaces, elaborate moldings, and oak paneling" that evoke a "country-house charm". The "handsomely furnished" rooms are for the most part "spacious" with beds that are usually "doubles" and some that are "old-fashioned four-poster". There are also "marble bathrooms" that are described as being "among the city's finest". Each bathroom features "long tubs, hand-held showers, and deluxe toiletries".
Frommers has allocated a three star rating to the hotel.
