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.

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.

Staff was lovely.
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.
