Set in Bath and with The Circus Bath reachable within 600 metres, The Yard in Bath Hotel offers a terrace, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a bar. This 4-star inn offers room service and luggage storage space. Private parking is available on site.

We loved staying at the apartment at The Yard-spacious, very comfortable with a lovely decor, a huge kitchen and bath, and many amenities. The hamper breakfast was perfect for us and they catered to my husband’s dietary needs.

Set in the centre of Bath, 700 metres from Bath Abbey, the historic Dukes Bath offers accommodation with free WiFi and a garden. This 5-star guest house offers full-day security and a concierge service. Private parking can be arranged at an extra charge.

The room I was initially given, the toilet unfortunately wasn't functioning. They then not only moved me but upgraded my room. I absolutely loved the room! The staff, Alex was helpful enough to sort my room out, he was very friendly and approachable. The owner, Carole was very kind as well. All in all, I loved my stay at Dukes! Will definitely recommend this place!

Warm, contemporary and attractive, Chestnut House is run by your hosts, Toni and Dawn, who pride themselves on offering superb hospitality in a romantic and relaxing atmosphere. With just 5 rooms, you can be sure of a friendly, personal service and a warm welcome.

The B&B is ideally located within walking distance of the key sites, yet removed enough from the centre to provide a quiet spot to relax after a day of site seeing. The room was very comfortable, clean & beautifully decorated. However, what makes Chestnuts exceptional is the delightful host, Toni, & thoughtful touches such as the homemade sweet treats left in the room each day. It was lovely to have a small piece of cake with a cup of tea. It was also nice that there was fresh milk in the fridge. The breakfasts were extraordinary & among the best I have ever had at a hotel or B&B. I was surprised by the choice on the menu, allowing for something different each morning (e.g. delicious full English, eggs Royal with smoked salmon, eggs Florentine). Toni was easy to communicate with, prompt in responding to queries in advance of arrival & a wonderful host. It was a fantastic experience & we very much look forward to a future opportunity to stay at Chestnuts B&B again.

Situated in Bath, less than 1 km from Bath Abbey and a 9-minute walk from The Roman Baths, White Guest House features accommodation with free WiFi in a historic building. This 3-star guest house offers luggage storage space and a housekeeping service. University of Bath is 2.7 km away and Oldfield Park Train Station is 3 km from the guest house.

Just 4 miles from Bath, The Wheatsheaf Combe Hay is a West Country inn dating back to the 1500s. A traditional pub and restaurant with log fire and an outdoor terrace, it offers stylish rooms with free parking and Wi-Fi.

    Charming guest house very close to the city center and the train station. Some quirky features to enjoy in the architecture, generous breakfasts and quiet room. They are quite accommodating and allowed me to drop my beg off early and leave it there later on the last day.

    Nice traditional bed and breakfast. But breakfast wasnt served. It was waiting in fridge, and it was just good. House has good feeling. Narrow stairs. Dont take oversize luggage. This guest house doesnt suit for modernists. Location is a little far away from city centre but walkable, and nice riverside route. Really helpfull owner who lives nextdoor. Quiet place and quiet street. Not cheap, but not so expensive as mony others in Bath.

    Excellent location for the centre of Bath, near all tourist hotspots but also quiet. Comfy bed and yummy breakfasts (and plenty of it!) Our room was right at the top so lots of steep stairs, but lovely roof top views. Quite a small room but quaint and very comfortable. Our host Christina was very helpful and friendly. We would definitely recommend this guest house and would stay there again should we make a return visit to Bath. Thank you Christina x

    Clean, comfortable, simply charming and most definitely a home away from home. This has to be one of the cosiest accommodations available in Bath. Quiet surroundings and good bus links in to the city centre are an added bonus. Not to mention a passionate hostess who has clearly thought about everything from milk in the fridge, ice in the freezer, books and games for entertainment and even a hot water bottle for those chilly nights. I highly recommend it and have plans to visit again.

    The room was very cozy and beautiful. Also it was very close to the city center, but still quiet at night 😊. It was very clean and neat and Steve was a very lovely host. Me and my sister felt very comfortable at the white guest house. We were very happy with our stay in Bath!
