Reviews for The Bath Priory Hotel and Restaurant
Remarkable hotel!
Everything about this place is fantastic, we couldn't have been happier with the food, location, services, facility, or staff. We only stayed one night so we didn't have an opportunity to take advantage of any of their extra services (spa, etc.), but based on what we experienced I can only imagine those are top notch as well. Easy walking distance to the major tourist locations in Bath, and set in a residential neighborhood full of parks and pretty buildings. If you are looking for a high-end experience, this is a great place to stay while in Bath!

Great service, delicious food and nice country house ambience
We came here for a birthday celebration and were pleasantly surprised by the overall quality and friendliness. We received a very warm welcome and were given a short tour of the hotel, which has the feel of a country house, with lots of original paintings and a beautiful garden. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a well stocked bathroom. The spa and pool were warm and clean, with a calm and relaxing atmosphere. The five course tasting menu (six courses if you include the delicious amuse-bouches) was superb and there was a great choice of freshly prepared food for breakfast. The hotel is perhaps a little over-priced - £8 for a small beer and £17 for a Spritzer cocktail (with no nibbles!) is stretching it a bit - but overall the friendliness of the staff and the comfortable surroundings more than make up for this. A great experience!

Disappointing stay, far below expectations!
Our stay at The Priory was very disappointing and far from what we had expected. We were arriving from other stays at hotels within the Relais & Châteaux collection, where the standard had been consistently excellent, making the contrast even more striking. It was clear that the hotel suffers from serious lack of maintenance. Several light bulbs were not working, our curtain was torn, the carpet was dirty, and the stone around the bathtub was cracked, both in our room and in other areas of the property. The staff, although polite, appeared tired and overstretched, and this affected the quality of service. I had already read similar concerns in previous reviews, and sadly our experience fully confirmed them. The only real highlight was the breakfast, which was genuinely excellent — fresh, well prepared and very enjoyable. Unfortunately, aside from that, the experience was not pleasant. Considering its membership in Relais & Châteaux, the overall quality is deeply inconsistent with the standards expected. Regrettably, we would not return and cannot recommend the hotel in its current condition.

Celebrating the New Year in style
What a great way to end the year and start the next! My wife and I chose the Bath Priory to bring in the New Year and enjoyed their 2 night package. It was magical from start to finish. A cream tea on arrival, relaxing in our beautiful room before a champagne reception meeting the other guests and then an incredible 5 course dinner with paired wines before dancing the night away with some great tunes. So much fun. New Year’s Day brought a guided walking tour of Bath (we learned so much), relaxation at the Spa, before a final glass of champagne and wonderful 3 course dinner. Everything was just as it should be - fantastic food, drink, accommodation but above all the staff were absolutely brilliant - definitely service with a smile and nothing was ever too much trouble. They made it so special and managed to create a wonderful house party type vibe. We drove away having created so many new memories and felt we really had started the New Year in style. Thank you Bath Priory, we’ll definitely be back.

Great but some improvements needed
We had a lovely time here on Friday night, The room was lovely and spacious and bathroom was stunning, and the spa was a nice experience too. We only had lunch here and it was tasty. -We both did feel there was a few things missing for the price bracket its in, I have listed some things below not to complain but to give feedback, -Remote in the room did not work (lavender) volume buttons etc -When we ordered coffee to our room in the morning it took over half an hour, we had to go and remind them and then it came quickly. -Slightly dirty/outdated corridors. -When entering the spa for the first time we were told the pool was full capacity ( only around 5-8 people in there which it just felt bit stand offish for a first experience. -We sat in the lounge on multiple occasions and it just felt like it wasn't table service as took a while for someone to come over to see if we needed anything ( a few others had the same issue on the night) -Windows in the room didn't properly shut ( didn't effect us might might effect others) We would come back as it felt lovely and homely but we just feel it come improve slightly.
