Reviews for The Bath Priory Hotel and Restaurant
Fabulous food and cozy environment!
The food is fabulous. We ordered the pork belly and the chicken and both were superb! We also got room upgraded on our arrival which was a pleasant surprise. We got a spacious two bedroom with separate sitting/living room area that was very nice and cozy. Great homey feeling to the place. Beautiful gardens as well! Also very accesible walking to town. You get a great walk to town without it being excessive. Staff was very nice. Would definetely come back.

A bit disappointing
The hotel looks beautiful and promising. However, it quickly falls short of expectations. The service is very slow. Even for q glass of tap water. Somebody called us on the room phone at 6.30 am when we had not asked for a wake up call and we had no expectation or apology about it. The bed sheets had dirt marks on them. The sheets were not dirty but the marks/stains had not been removed. The food was okay, beautifully presented but equally, not something that I will remember. Except for their souffle. There is nothing horrible about this hotel. It just does not deliver a 5 star hotel treatment. Or maybe we were unlucky?

Rooms need a complete refurb.
This is a nice place to stay in the lovely town of Bath. Our slight problem was that our previous stay here was 10 years ago and despite being upgraded from a Classic room to a Premium room overlooking the front of the hotel the room badly needed modernising - it looked much more than 10 years old. Everything worked in the room although the shower in the bathroom was of the ‘over the bath’ type where you had to clamber over a very broad marble edge to get in….. not particularly safe…. and these days we expect a walk in shower with this standard of hotel. The floor tiles and toilet had also seen better days. The downstairs public rooms are comfortable and appear to have been updated since our last visit. Breakfast was a disappointment- I chose Eggs Benedict & I should have sent it back as the eggs were over cooked ( they were solid) & the sauce was almost gelatinous - I did point this out but didn’t receive an apology. My wife’s bacon was similar to the American streaky stuff (but we’re in England) & the sausage was also somewhat below par! Other than that if they added a lift, tidied up the reception area, and updated the rooms we might try it again but it did give us the impression it was living off past glories. Is this a consequence of the current ownership?

Nearly Very good!
An excellent hotel with a great location within 20 mins walk to the Royal Crescent. Disappointed with a couple of disappointments: 1. Restaurant was closed and Pantry had very limited menu. 2. Shower in room was small and old. Bathroom was very large and needs to accommodate a better shower. Staff were great and parking was good. Think reception area needs an up date.

Tale of two Hotels
Tale of two hotels Staff excellent more than helpful, accommodating. Pleasant at all times. Hotel is not dusty as one reviewer mentioned it is a period hotel and does not profess to be anything else. Main Restaurant was closed for one night but open for Dinning and was fine, food tasty no issues, Plenty of car parking. Easy walk into Bath but Taxi back as uphill. This would have been a three / four star review if not for above drawing it to four star Just in our view. Pool and Spa Small but more than adequate very pleasant and pool temp perfect. Our fair observations. Room was in need of some maintenance a little bit of TLC would have made all the difference, shower cubicle small old. Taps need to be replaced one thinks, dimmer switch manky and not sure what one even does. Furnishings re fresh would not cost much but make world difference. Wait at Breakfast to be seated, in the end had to find some one, apologies but at this price range ummm. We did enjoy are stay and see no reason not to re visit in the future.
