The quintessential English experience

There isn’t much more you can do to achieve a classic English holiday experience than stay in a hotel with its own spacious garden. Not only does a colourful and lush garden area make you feel like you’re a character out of Pride and Prejudice, it also gives you a secluded spot to take leisurely strolls, read a book or enjoy some tea and scones.

Hotels with gardens also tend to feature other fabulous luxuries such as The Bath Priory with its in-room fireplaces, the elegant rooms at The Tasburgh House and the thermal spa at the Macdonald Bath Spa Hotel.

Culture and fun in the historic centre

Make sure you get to see all the fascinating sights and do all the fun activities while visiting Bath by staying in the city’s historic centre. Visit the Roman Baths that were built over 2000 years ago and the former monastery of Bath Alley, or see the collections at the Jane Austen Centre and the Holburne Museum of Arts.

The River Avon, flowing around the city centre, means a lot of central hotels also have river views. The Hilton Bath City is a particularly elegant hotel with a French bistro restaurant and stunning views.

Bring the family together

Bath has a range of activities and sights that the entire family can enjoy. Catch a cultural performance at the Theatre Royal or see the newest films at The Odeon, attend a professional rugby union match at Bath Rugby Club, cycle the rolling countryside or more leisurely park routes, or shop for unique items at the Walcot Street markets.

The Halcyon’s affordable yet sumptuous rooms and its friendly atmosphere make it perfect for families. Enjoy the epitome of relaxation at The Royal Crescent Hotel either during a day spa treatment, while nibbling on afternoon tea in the hotel’s gardens or while lounging around in the spacious rooms.
