Comfortable clean rooms, although our room overlooked the flat roofs of adjacent buildings. Spa pool and saunas were very nice and not too busy. We had a good breakfast, but the chef was unable to cook any simple pancakes for our daughter.

We stayed at this hotel a few times over the years visiting our son who was at uni in Bath. We returned in July 2024 with family to attend his graduation. It’s an impressive looking hotel with immaculate grounds in a great location (10 mins walk to town), but what has really gone downhill is the service. It looks like a 5 star hotel and has the facilities but the poorly trained staff and lack of management let the place down. Issues included: - ordering lunch before we left for the graduation. We ordered at 11.45 - they explained the chef didn’t start until 12 which was fine. However we didn’t get our sandwiches until 12.25. The staff knew our taxi was booked to leave at 12.45. I honestly don’t know why it took nearly 30 mins to make 4 sandwiches? - breakfast - total mayhem. Tables piled up with dirty crockery. It took 20 mins to get tea and coffee to our table. We ordered eggs Benedict/smoked salmon and eggs which each came with a £6 surcharge. The eggs were stone cold. Moody looking kitchen staff avoiding all eye contact so you had to get up and chase them down to ask about the various issues - issue with aircon. We reported non-working aircon on day 1 and this wasn’t fixed - reception was always busy full of other people complaining about things so we didn’t want to queue up and be surrounded by more misery I would urge the management of this hotel to actually view a breakfast service and sit on reception and hear all the issues first hand. We won’t be returning
