The staff made the difference between being just another faceless hotel to a warm, welcome and memorable stay. Ok, the hotel could do with a bit of TLC but that was part of the charm. Everything was clean and comfortable and perfect for a night in Bath. Thank you.

This is quaint old hotel, very reasonably priced, so we weren't expecting modern luxury. It is super convenient for the railway station and close to all the things you want to see in the city. We wanted to drop our bags off early, and the desk staff could not have been more helpful, and he was very friendly for our whole visit. Our room was smaller than some of the other ones we saw, but fine for us. All in all, we were very happy with our choice.

We booked the hotel primarily because it has a few customer car parking spaces round the back. The location was good and the building historic, having been designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, when it was called the Royal Station Hotel. Our room was a little tired but fine for our needs. It did not look like any of the photos on the website. The hot water supply was a little reluctant, taking well over a minute to arrive in the room. Even though the hotel was directly opposite the train station it was not too noisy. Breakfast was very good. There was a good selection of fruit, cooked options, pastries, yogurt and cereals. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had a great couple of days exploring Bath and the Royal Hotel was a good base.

The Pros Clean room, Comfy Bed Nice selection of beverages Nice dinner Good location The Cons Breakfast was mediocre Shower had mind of its own going from boiling to freezing Room very hot and stuffy, small fan not adequate for room size The location was good but there was alot of noise at night if you had windows open. No wardrobe in room No fridge Tv only had minimal freeview channels. No Internet channels and view was obscured from one side of bed. Although room info said morning papers were available this is not a service offered.

We had a lovely stay, close to the train station and walking around Bath city. Staff were very helpful and quite professional. Breakfast was served and a great choice. Being close to the station meant some late night noise, but nothing to spoil the stay. Parking is available but limited. I would definitely recommend this hotel to you!

Perfect location just across from the rail station and close to retaurants and attractions. The room was comfortable and clean. The staff was helpful and friendly. The hotel was built in the 1840s and you may need to run the tap for 2-3 minutes to get hot water for your shower.

The Royal Hotel has a couple of things going for it — it’s directly across the street from the train station AND it has a lift! A couple of things going against it — the WiFi reminded me of dial-up, glacially slow and iffy. Also, there doesn’t seem to be a way for a guest to set the room temp. Unless you count the tabletop plug-in fan? Staff were generally helpful, Tim at the front desk and the women working the breakfast room, too. LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION

The hotel was very cute and cozy which was nice. It was very clean and tidy. The staff was great and breakfast which was included was very good. However if you like having hot water when you turn it on (I’m not kidding it took over five minutes of running the hot water until the water started getting warm), if you like your shower to be warm and comfortable, if you like to use the hotel WiFi, if you like your room’s door to lock when you close it (the door to my room would not lock, the staff did offer to change rooms) if you want convenient parking then maybe look elsewhere. I would not return to The Royal Hotel

Convenient location to the train and bus staions, however, I would not stay here again. I could have stayed at a nicer place for the same price if I had walked another block. The door to the room and the door to the bathroom were both in exceptionally poor condition. The bed was uncomfortable and the carpeting was old. I should have selected a hotel than was centrally located rather than near transportation.
