Royal Bath Hotel

6/10 Okay

"The building was lovely, but we were on the lower ground and there was a wall obstructing our view out of the window. The room was very basic with no colour or decoration and seemed like it was put together at the last minute. We felt because we had booked via a deal we were given the very basic. Won't return"

Rhinefield House Hotel

8/10 Good

"A wonderful location and the property setting is breathtaking. The grounds are beautiful and an evening walk shouldn’t be missed. All the staff were helpful and made every effort to assist. Breakfast a little chaotic but again, staff were trying to help where they could. Our room was clean and comfortable and had all amenities we needed for a short stay. Public areas of the hotel were a little tired but those in the older part of the hotel were interesting and we could understand the wedding venue use. Our main gripe was about the poll. We had booked the hotel on the basis of the outdoor pool. We were disappointed as it is actually quite small (for the size of the hotel) and there were only three sun loungers that were immediately taken and kept by the same individuals all day. We felt pictures of the pool area provided led to incorrect assumptions about possible pool experience. No other areas were available for relaxing and sunbathing. There were wooden and rather uncomfortable tables and chairs on the patios that guests used, but these weren’t really suitable, especially as seat cushions were hard to find. Overall, a lovely venue, just in need of an uplift but not a place offering r&r round a pool."

Haven Hotel

8/10 Good

"The reception team were so friendly and helpful, so lovely. The outdoor pool was really hot and clean with plenty of space The bar area was great with beautiful views over the sea although there was a problem with the draught beers when we stayed and the staff didn’t seem very helpful or well trained The room was comfortable but a little dated"
