We warmly welcomed upon arrival. The gentleman who took our luggages to store before check in was very thorough in his suggestions on what to do for our 24 hour visit in the area. All the front staff were warm and that really made us want to come back to Bath.

A stunning hotel conveniently located in the heart of Bath. Quiet and luxurious, and a perfect escape for couples. The bedrooms are impeccably clean, very spacious, quiet and comfortable. The spa is free to access between 8-10 am and 7-9 pm. We used the spa at 7pm, as did most other residents, however it wasn't too busy and was a lovely space to unwind before dinner. The cocktail bar has a good selection of spirits and drinks, and the lounge is relaxing to to enjoy them in. Note hotel parking is £40/day (not £21 as per the advert); we paid for parking in Southgate which is safe and £18/24 hours (alternatively Park & Ride is £2/day). Overall this was a fantastic hotel and we would recommend and return.

We had to walk down several corridors and up and down stairs to access our room — if you have mobility issues I would advise confirming what is required when assigned your room. Spa bath was pleasant, but spa services seemed overpriced and I had difficulty getting them to share the price list ahead of time. Tea service was fine, but not sure the value was there for the quality. Preferred to eat around town, but the canvas lounge was well-appointed. Not sure the value proposition would justify a return visit, but my stay was enjoyable.

Service

Very professional and friendly service at the reception and concierge, thank you Kimberley. Fantastic spa and lovely room with very comfortable bed. Unfortunately, the breakfast was a let down, very limited choice of continental products, hot food had to be ordered from the waiter. I had to chase after one, instead of them coming over to me with the menu, which I didn’t even know they had any. If it wasn’t for my partner who got to the breakfast before me, I wouldn’t have known about hot food menu, so had to improvise and asked for typical English breakfast items. The food quality was a let down, I expected something special for £35 per person breakfast. Coffee wasn’t best either. Breakfast service was very poor and the food was ok nothing special. I will definitely stay in this hotel again but won’t be having a breakfast. Can’t comment on dinner in the restaurant as ate elsewhere. All in all, a wonderful experience and highly recommend staying.

I recently stayed at the Gainsborough Spa Hotel, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, the staff were welcoming, attentive, and genuinely helpful. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Bath, making it easy to explore the city’s iconic sights. The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the spa facilities. The thermal spa is absolutely stunning, with a series of warm and cool pools that feel incredibly rejuvenating. I particularly enjoyed the infrared sauna, which offered a more gentle heat and left me feeling completely relaxed. The serene atmosphere of the spa made it easy to unwind, and I appreciated the thoughtful little touches like chilled water and plush towels throughout. The room itself was beautifully designed—elegant yet cosy, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud, and the attention to detail in the decor really enhanced the overall experience. I would highly recommend the Gainsborough Spa Hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and relaxing getaway in Bath. It’s the perfect combination of indulgence and charm, and I will definitely be returning.
