Lovely hotel, nice rooms, great service and breakfast, really convenient for shops. It's a shame the facilities are limited to over 16s, whilst advertising family friendly with a swimming pool. Apparently it's not a swimming pool and is a spa pool available for over 16s only. Recommend hotel for adults exploring Bath, but not a family hotel.
