Bathroom wooden panels shabby
Bathroom shabby, sink had big splintered crack,hole in enamel which had clearly been there a long time. Wooden panels in bathroom & door plinth to bathroom very shabby. Bedroom itself was great. Bathroom let it down. Lovely Elemis products in bathroom, bed comfy. Breakfast was ok. Coffee was weak (basically hot coloured water) & waited 10 mins for it. Hot cooked breakfast took 20 mins to arrive. Croissant was stale (it made a sound on the plate when tapping it!). The bread my poached eggs were served on tasted stale. Staff were excellent, very professional, hotel was beautifully decorated with Christmas decorations. Lovely hot outdoor pool, steam sauna wasn’t working, dry sauna was great, ice room was great, indoor pool was quite cold.

Great break
Beautiful hotel and great service. We stayed for one night whilst visiting the Bath Christmas Market which was in walking distance. We ate in the restaurant and had the Christmas menu. The starters were good but the main course was a little basic, the desert was amazing and we ate everything and left full. Its not cheap, but it was a nice treat to ourselves. The Spa facilities are good, although one of the saunas was out of order but they do have 2. We had a really nice suite in the Imperial Apartments. A really nice break and would recommend to everyone

Disappointing..
We've stayed a few times at this hotel. On this occasion there was a different vibe. The rooms were clean and tidy. Very comfortable apart from the heating system. The room was cold and the thermostat was uncontrollable. The receptionist explained that the rooms are set with a communal heating system.(around 30 rooms). The bar staff (1 person) on the evening just didnt want to engage. AS if they were reading from a script and just did not want to be there. The wine list was confusing. You can ask for a glass only on some wines that suggest you can only buy a bottle. The Merlot is a good example. When in the restaurant, the waitress suggested get your own drink from the bar as it would be quicker. The restaurant was clearly understaffed. On order we were not informed of dishes that were not available.After a long wait again to order. In all fairness the meal i had was excellent. . Having spoken with the manager on duty the next morning, she was very understanding and apologised on behalf of the management staff. I did explain we were only for the one night, but best to report the cold room. It wouldn't be fair for the next person to check in the same room. So hopefully it was corrected.

Lovely Two Night Stay despite horrible weather
There were some unfair comments online made about the hotel which I disagree with. The hotel met our expectations and the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was just transitioning into Christmas and the decorations and aroma in reception and the lounges was beautiful. The Spa was reasonably quiet and we found the saunas and outdoor pool to be clean and enjoyable. Our room was also lovely and our only issue was that it took ages to get warm (not hot) water from bath and sink taps. The towel rail was also cold throughout the duration of our two night stay. However, it was probably our fault for not complaining about his

Everything was great until breakfast, which was absolutely awful. Dirty table which the waitress wiped with her hand, had to ask for our hot drinks 3 times, waited 10 minutes for the orange juice to be refilled, brought my partners scrambled egg and smoked salmon but not the toast ( asked again but still no delivery of toast). By the time it did come the egg was stone cold so I asked for the order to be replaced. Basically they stuck it in the microwave and gave it back to her ( still wasn’t very hot). By this time my cooked breakfast was cold. Staff all looked very stressed and were matching about - very inattentive I should really have asked for a full refund but as there was only one staff member on reception when we checked out I just left it I have to say we were very disappointed
