The entrance
From the garden and the sitting-area outside. I can imagine it would be beautiful here in the summertime.We arrived to the hotel late in the evening. There were no problem with checking in.
The room was nice so was the bathroom. The toiletries were from Molton Brown.
The only complaint about the bed was that there was no duvet. I would believe a 5* hotel should have real duvets, not only blankets.
It was nice to have a sitting-area. We also got complimentary bottled water. Nice touch!
The hotel is situated in the outskirt of Bath, about 15 min. walking distance from the city-center.
We had continental breakfast in our room-rate. We could get cooked, full English breakfast for 6 pound extra, but found the continental breakfast to be enough. There were cerials, milk, juices, water, bread, butter, marmalade, fruits and even some ham.
I tried to get an appointment at the spa, but it was fully booked. However I had an hour in the swimming-pool and the spa-area and really got "my eyes up" for visiting the spa-area. There were a large swimming-pool inside connected to a smaller one outside. The outside had bubbles and it felt very nice to swim in the hot water while there was only 5*c outside! There were also 6 different steam-rooms. Do I need to say that I liked this after a hectic day? :-D
Was this a true 5*? Well, it looked like, but I never got the 5* "feeling". It's difficult to explain that feeling, but I got it at Palacio Estoril in Portugal.
