The Bath Priory Hotel, Restaurant & Spa

Type: Hotel

This delightful 31 room hotel with its Michelin star restaurant, has the feel of a country house hotel in the city. Built in 1835 of mellow Bath stone, it is a fine example of gothic architecture of the period. Set in four acres of award-winning gardens, the hotel grows much of its own herbs and vegetables. It has an outdoor pool in the gardens and an indoor pool in the Garden Spa where guests can use the gym, sauna and steam room on a complimentary basis.

All room prices are inclusive of bed and breakfast, use of the Garden Spa facilities, on-site parking, VAT and service. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and all except one room have a bath. The Classic and Deluxe rooms overlook the courtyard, while the Superior, Premier Deluxe and Junior Suite rooms overlook our four acres of landscaped gardens. Our suites are designed to cater for families and are in an adjacent building.

Romance breaks at the Priory include champagne and strawberries, red roses in the bath and candles, full English breakfast, use of the Garden Spa and dinner in the superb restaurant on one night. The restaurant at The Bath Priory boasts the only Michelin Star in the city, which it has retained since 1999, and offers guests a memorable experience of truly inspirational cuisine.

Please note The Bath Priory will be closed from 2 February 2009 for 6 weeks for major refurbishment works.
