All the staff I encountered at this hotel were very friendly and service minded. The bed and pillows were very comfortable in room. Had breakfast in room following morning, toast arrived warm enough to melt the butter :) The natural yogurt I ordered was smooth as velvet. I would go back here again!

Arriving at the hotel at 2.20pm on a Sunday afternoon we knew that we probably wouldn't be able to check in as check in time was 3pm but thought it worth checking. Upon check in we asked the receptionist if it was possible to check in of which we were told 'no your room is not ready, it will be... More

Finally we have found another good one. The only problem here is depending on your arrival time you may well have to park away from the hotel, because it's so wonderfully central, a LOT of tourist busses pull up out side and you are not allowed to stop.... However there is a long term car park just around the corner... More

Fantastic location. Friendly staff. Amazing triple sized bed which was very comfy. Different to other reviews it appears that the owners continue to work hard to update the hotel as all corridor and hall carpets we saw were fairly new. Breakfast was lovely...I had granola with yogurt and properly poached eggs on toast...delicious. We didn't eat in the restaurant but... More

We stayed in the Abbey Hotel over the bank holiday weekend, normally stay in Travellodges so not used to luxury but decided to stay in a nicer hotel this time. Booked the room online, don't remember booking a small double but looking at other reviews and judging by the size of the room that's what we got! It was very... More

We chose the hotel purely because it was one of the better looking dog friendly hotels in Bath City. Having not visited Bath before we weren't sure of the location but it turned out to be excellent. It's very close to the train station, the centre of town and of course the big attractions the Abbey and the Roman Baths.... More

Our room was barably okey, but bathroom need a desperate upgrade. Previous work must have been done by uncertified joiners and plubers. However the beed was excellent. Buffet breakfast was good, with a big pluss to the south African female reseptionist and the male bar tender that gave good advise on what to see in the area.

Was a bit differcult to see as I was looking for a large Best Western sign rather than the abbey. The staff were extremely helpful. The hotel was clean. I was in one of the rooms in the basement, sounds bad but was actually quite pleasant as there wasn't numerous people walking past looking for rooms. Would certainly stay again... More

The location of The Abbey cannot be better. We had a wonderful view across Bath and the hills. The hotel upgraded us to a larger room and it was large and the bed very comfortable. Nice and clean. Yes the carpet in the corridors and stairs are a little dated, and the lift is very small, but overall it was... More

A stylish hotel in the town centre. Rooms are fairly basic and can be small but the communal areas and restaurant are top class. The breakfasts are great and the service is professional, the Alium restaurant is one of the best in the city. Recommended for business or pleasure.
