We spent 17 days staying in boutique hotels all over England and Scotland, and only one other place matched Vila Magdala (that was Cringletie in Peebles, Scotland, if you're interested). As noted by others, the Villa has had a complete facelift. It's perfect. The husband-wife team who own and manage it are on site all the time, and the staff... More

Absolutely fabulous boudoir chic, spotlessly clean, flawless service from the 'team' so far removed from being termed 'staff' - style, service and quality at its best - 5*....a lesson in how it should be done!

Wow! Thank you - every single member of the team has seen this and loved it! We all do a bit of everything to make sure the place runs well so it's fantastic that you have recognised that. Many thanks from us all. More

Villa Magdala has been recently refurbished and to a very high standard. The attention to detail in the rooms and public areas was obvious to see. We were warmly welcomed by all the staff - the rooms were well furnished in 'boutique' style and very comfortable. The breakfast offered a good choice of well prepared cooked English breakfast, breads and... More

We recommend all our guests to book directly with us through our web-site or by phone to benefit from the free car parking - we do make a small charge for bookings made through third party booking agencies to offset the commision charges we have to pay. For guests making price comparisons between hotels - make sure you know the... More

I had read reviews of the Villa Magdala before booking and was impressed. It certainly lived up to its reputation. The staff and owners were friendly and helpful. Room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional with lots of choice, which included a bucks fizz. On a practical level it is within a short walking distance of... More

Thank you for the review. Our Good rooms are our smallest but they are still an excellent size with a king-size bed and offer great value for a city centre hotel in Bath. Billy says thank you for the mention too! More

I hadn't stayed at the Villa Magdala for over ten years. On returning, I found it having had a make-over without losing any of its charm. A really warm welcome greeted us and staff were warm and attentive throughout our stay. A beautiful spot - I can't imagine there's anywhere better to stay in Bath.

The best place we stayed in our 18 day trip. If you want to know what it's like to be treated like the Lord of the Manor, stay here! The hands-on owners of this lovely guest house and their impeccably trained staff offer a service that is rarely found in most hotels. The breakfast is worth the stay in and... More

I chose this B&B based on: location - quiet, but 5 minutes walk to town centre, car park, high standard of accommodation shown on website. I'm pleased to say it lived up to all our expectations. We had a Better room, dual aspect, with views over trees in the garden and park opposite. The birdsong in the mornings was delightful... More

Our group of 4 stayed for one night in a "Good" and "Best" room. Both rooms were very elegant with comfortable bedding. Good room (room 2) was just by the entrance and noisy at times. Best room (18) was at least 60% larger and well worth the extra cost. Breakfast was amazing - far better selection than any other B&B... More

Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are really proud of our breakfasts so good to know that you enjoyed it! Room 2 can be noisy but lots of guests like ti as it is on the ground floor - we have other ground floor rooms that are quieter though. Thanks again More

My wife booked us in to Villa Magdala for one night 08/05/12 and we couldn't have been more happy with the room, the people and the whole ambiance of the place. Attention to detail was excellent and we will definately be going back. The location is superb only a 5 minute walk to the centre of Bath.
