Excellent hotel if you want to be near the sration and Bath centre .The cystomer service was superb very helpful and informative .Breakfast was served in the Brasserie and of a very high standard the young man serving us was so good and helpful my husband gave him a five pound tip .The hotel is tired it does need refurbishment but the rooms are very clean and spacious ,the bed wasnt very comfortable bit lumpy but we slept quite well.All in all a good stay in a well run hotel.

Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy my stay at this hotel. I was expecting old fashioned, but the room was extremely tired, scruffy and unloved. A lick of paint and new wallpaper would have made a huge difference at minor expense. I was glad I didn't have to spend much time there. The only good point of the room was nice towels, duvet and pillows. Word of warning, if you end up with the last parking space like me, it is tiny. They should really be reduced to 5 spaces rather than 6. Southgate multi-storey is a much better option and only minutes away. I don't recommend this hotel as there are far better choices in Bath for the same cost.

Stayed at the Royal as we were going to a concert at the Forum which is just nearby. Girl at reception extremely friendly and helpful. We managed to book one of the psrking spaces belonging to the hotel just round the corner which was very convenient. Would stay again.

It's a lovely old place to stay. The staff is courteous and helpful. It feels safe and it was fairly quiet but for the gulls who make a fuss all night. My room was fairly small, but the bathroom was large enough. I had some trouble with hot water, and because of the heat it was troublesome to sleep. There's no AC, which makes sense given the location, but if you are staying in summer hopefully they can start providing some fans to create airflow. The bed wasn't terribly comfortable. The room was otherwise very clean and room service did a great job on my second day. If you plan to travel by rail or bus, this is a fantastic place to stay. I needed to be at Heathrow early on a Sunday morning and that's difficult from most cities. The Royal is directly across from the train station and the bus depot making it very convenient. It's a lovely walk to downtown and there's a shopping center next door, as well.

Lovely hotel and we would Book again. Our room looked a bit tired but we understand they are going through refurbishment. Lovely Comfy bed and everything you need in the room. Like the choice on The breakfast menu makes a change from the normal fry up!

Only difficulty was hot water in the bathroom, took a long time to get warm, never really hot. Everything else was great. Very surprised that room was cleaned and linen charged on a Sunday. Would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay in Bath. Just outside the hubbub of the city, but very much walkable to the main attractions. Would definitely stay here again. Pay for parking at hotel, or public pay parking very close. It's old, but that's the charm!! Great bar/lounge on first floor, made yummy drinks and loved the local cider. Didn't eat at the restaurant though. Near market as well.

We had a great stay. Wish our room had had air conditioning. The windows opened onto flower boxes and a very busy street and curtains were a problem. We waited a long time for hot water for first shower. Breakfasts were great, staff extremely friendly and helpful and room was a nice size. We would stay again.

The hotel is lovely, right across the street from the railway station. It had several adverts on line and I thought I booked The Royal about 6 km away. I assumed a king size bed but it turned out to be a large double. The room was lovely, windows opened, but it was hot. Even with the fan we were uncomfortable.

This is an old hotel in a run down area of Bath our room only had access to hot water at certain times of the day. Even then it was insufficient to risk taking a shower so we didn't bother. We had a water leak which wasn't huge but but looked like it had been there for a long time and was routinely ignored by the staff. The room overlooked a pretty disgusting rooftop which didn't help. The only positive thing was the location. Would we go back? No.

Right opposite the train station so very handy for anyone who has mobility problems. Much quieter than I was expecting and the bed was extremely comfortable. Bedroom had plenty of supplies - including Earl Grey teabags, a cafetière and ground coffee, biscuits etc, also towelling robes and slippers. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. No food service after 6pm but within a short walking distance of many restaurants and bars.

This hotel has a lovely location and could be a wonderful gem in Bath. The woman who checked us in was so gracious and wonderful. We arrived at our room (107) and the bedding and bathroom were spotless. The room smelled strongly of Clorox or some very strong cleanser. The room is in serious need of good maintenance. The wallpaper is peeling up in multiple places. The carpet is loose, the caulk is gross on the step to the shower. There is a weird gap in the bathroom ceiling with an open chasm of cobwebs. We had to ask for help because our bedside light and several outlets were not powered, despite flipping the on button beside it. When we expressed concerns to the man who was working the front desk he came up and fixed it, but was extremely dismissive to our other concerns. In the end, the bed was relatively comfortable, with quality sheets and comforter. I think I would be content with this hotel for a lower rate, but thought the price value was way off for $225/night. This was our second stay in bath- and we found the Bird Bath to be a much superior hotel, for a similar rate.

Incredible!! Loved everything about our stay in this historic hotel. The reception staff was unparalleled- so warm and friendly and helpful with local tips (thank you Andrea & Tim!!). The rooms were comfortable and clean and well stocked with what we needed for our overnight stay. Only regret is that we weren’t there longer!! The house restaurant menu looked great and the prices were very competitive. Just no time to actually try it. Maybe another time.

Do not stay on the 4th floor. The birds will keep you up all night! Also, the breakfast is NOT free. They don't tell you it is $12.95 each morning.

The staff were welcoming and friendly, the room was wonderful, there were three of us, my husband , and adult daughter and myself. The room and bathroom were spacey, clean and comfortable. They are in a great location across from the train station (not noisy) and a walk to all lot of sites, no need for a car.

The Royal is a beautiful and historic hotel. The location is close to the train station and an easy walk to the historic centre of Bath. The staff are lovely and the welcome was warm. The room was comfortable and breakfast was good. I would stay here again.

I did not realise that I needed to book for breakfast and evening meals as I had not had to do this before in my, not very frequent, stays in hotels in the UK. Consequently, my disabled wife and myself had to go out for meals. A disappointment for us. The staff were very considerate and understanding of our deafness and my wife's mobility problems.
