I have adored my stay at The Dolphin Hotel. It has been a perfect haven and a truly indulgent experience. I am most grateful to the manager for a generous room upgrade and to all staff for making me feel so welcome and at home. The bed and bedding is divine, and the decor and choice of artwork just my cup of tea. I love the little touches, the retro radio with Bluetooth so you can play your own music, retro kettle, excellent choice of drinks & daily biscuits. All has been perfection. Breakfast is very good too!

Lovely location overlooking the river. Walking distance to the Park and Ride bus into Bath, which was very convenient. The staff were very friendly and approachable and the food in the pub was excellent. Warm and comfortable room. The balcony to Room 5 needs replacing as some of the wood is rotten, but it is still pleasant to sit out when the weather is ok.

The room was spotless, well arranged, and the view from the balcony was lovely in the sunshine on Saturday. We ate in the restaurant and the staff couldn’t be faulted and were very attentive and helpful. In my honest opinion I feel the room was a bit overpriced as there were no additional facilities other than the river and the pub.

The Boathouse has fast become my favourite place to stay in Bath. It may not be city central but this riverside setting has a unique charm and the bedrooms are divine. The Boathouse has a Wind in the Willows theme, influencing the character of each bedroom. I’ve stayed in three rooms and each one is a delight. The beds are extremely comfortable; the shower & bath products are high quality & even their teas and coffee are chosen for indulgence, not bare necessity.

This hotel was outstanding from the beauty of the building and it's surroundings and the great internal decor and artifacts. With the history maintained while at the same time making it modern and comfortable. Staff were absolutely great, friendly and attentive and made sure our stay was all it could be! There is plenty of parking but I didn't require this. Breakfast was great with a good self service continental selection plus a decent cooked breakfast served to the table. My only note to the hotel for improvement is to change the sausages used, but this could simply be my preference as the current ones used are good. In addition the price for including breakfast on your booking is very reasonable unlike some hotels including the so called budget chains! Staying in Bath...then stay at The Boathouse!
