Stay was lovely. Grounds are beautiful. The pool and spa area were very nice. Food service was slow, so make sure your pace is leisurely at mealtimes.

Bath priory
The service from the staff was fantastic. Particularly the lovely lady on reception.
The spa was also nice, very clean and well maintained.
The food, drinks etc were all very good!
Our only issue was that the room was very hot with no air con and the windows are fixed so they can’t be opened very far. We were so hot we hardly slept.

Lovely Stay in Bath with Room for Improvement
Bath is a beautiful town, and the hotel was in the perfect location. We were also lucky to have fantastic weather during our stay. The hotel has a beautiful garden, which was lovely to relax in.
The room, however, could use a little attention. There was a nearly dead plant on the table, a broken curtain, and a stained carpet, which took away from the overall experience.
I would probably stay there again, but a bit of maintenance and care would go a long way.

A beautiful property and very convenient in Bath. Just far enough away from the hustle and bustle to feel relaxed. I would give 5 stars but my room had no control over the heating and it was very hot during the night. Had to keep the windows opened.

Perfect Weekend Stay!
From the moment we arrived, our stay was perfect. Everything has been thought through; very kind room upgrade, birthday gift and card on arrival, radio playing Classic FM on entry into the room. It was all exceptional!
Room size was very good and the small table and chairs by the window made for a lovely morning coffee overlooking the grounds.
Every member of staff we encountered were friendly and helpful and this made for a wonderful atmosphere across the whole hotel.
Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay and we definitely will be back!

Birthday Celebration
My husband and I stayed at The Bath Priory Hotel to celebrate my birthday. It was truly wonderful and I was disappointed when we had to leave to go home.
All of the staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble.
Our room, 'Apple Blossom,' was superb with a stunning view of the garden. The bed was really comfortable and the tea and coffee facilities excellent.
We really enjoyed the breakfast and took the opportunity to sample different meals everyday. I would highly recommend the porridge.
We are looking to return in the Summer where we will be able to experience the garden in all it's glory and enjoy the outdoor swimming pool.
