| Hotel is in a fabulous location. Quite amazed though as despite the high price for the room the TV was very small (i believe it was a 14inch screen) and there was no minibar in the room. Otherwise very nice room with gret views onto the communal gardens. |

| The food was amazing! It is without doubt the best meal we have had in any 4 or 5* hotel anywhere in Europe.The opportunity to sit in the beautiful garden was perfect after some sightseeing and being able to drive up to the front door and have the car valet parked was just ideal. The staff were great - professional and appropriately friendly. We will certainly return. If you are looking for somewhere special, but relaxing, this is the place! |

| Stayed for two nights, dining in the second. Breakfast was great and the window table a bonus. The spa was very well appointed.A definite plus. The room was good but the bathroom plumbing was antique with no standing shower. The setting is one of the greatest in England. |

| The hotel is in a superb location of Bath. We spent two nights to celebrate my wifes birthday and had a most enjoyable stay. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome. The staff could not have been more helpful, from assisting with luggage, taking the car away and making sure we settled into our room. All the staff were very friendly, nothing was too much trouble for them. Time spent in the pool area a real treat and so relaxing. Would definately recommend the hotel for that extra special treat. |

| This is a spectacularly over the top Hotel . The location alone is worth a dig into the depths of your pocket, BUT the bar is ludicrously placed by a set of doors which leave a constant draft blowing through into the dining room, as well as the rather grim grey decor area of the bar itself. Too many of the staff are germanically efficent which does leave a taste of over regimentation, where a more homely feel would be appreciated. Could do with friendly seating area instead of the 2 main reception rooms which look like exhibits from The British Museum. |

| A beautiful hotel in a wonderful location, however the hotel room we stayed in would benefit from some refresh of decoration as some elements were a little shabby. Excellent service from all staff we encountered. |

| We stayed a Sunday night to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary - it was an excellent choice for almost 24 hours (you can check out at 12 noon!) of absolute relaxation and luxury.The RCH occupies a prime location in Georgian Bath - the exact middle of the Royal Cresent (have a look on google image) with a garden at the back leading to a bar, restaurant, the Bath House (complete with small candle lit pool) plus sauna and beauty therapy rooms.Staff were welcoming and friendly without being overbearing. All facilities were faultless.Ate out so cannot comment on dinner.And there's no need to worry about parking - a porter takes the car away and sorts out your bags when it's time to go.Will definitely return for another special occasion. |

| Easy to chill out from the moment you arrive. Well worth a visit provided you don't have to pay full price for a room. Eating in the hotel would probably double the cost of your stay, but local bars and restaurants are within 5 mins walk. |

| Not just a hotel - an experience. Fabulous service, delicious food (legendary cheese board), and the most relaxing spa/pool complex I've ever visited. It's expensive, but it's worth it. If you're deciding between this & any other hotel in the city - book this one. |

| Fantastic hotel for a special occasion, formal yet attentive. Great to find bedrooms that are better than home - a rarity in the UK.My wife and I travelled from Cheshire by train as the location is only a 10 minute walk to the main shops and restaurants. The rail, however, was four and a half hours! |
