Room spotless, tea & coffee options but no hot chocolate. Building still being renovated so no lift available and I was in the 3rd floor. But staff very helpful and did try to see if there was another room available but to no avail was a busy weekend in Bath. Staff carried my luggage up to my room and back down when I left. Breakfast was very nice. Would stay again.

Beautiful hotel in a great location. The desk staff and the doormen were all fabulous. The lift wasn’t working but we were okay taking the stairs. I wouldn’t recommend breakfast as there are cheaper and better options nearby. The breakfast staff seemed very disorganized when we were there. Just a heads up that there is a discretionary gratuity mentioned at checkout. I wish I had known in advance as it caught me off guard.

We’ve stayed here several times.p and always been very happy. Our room was recently updated and was very good, the building work was ongoing, but didn’t disturb us. It did mean the small car park was closed, but public parking is within a few minutes walk.

Fabulous hotel

Part of the hotel was under renovation, so we had to do a detour out of the building to our room, however the staff walked us to the room and it was lovely. Spacious, a radio was playing gently on arrival providing a great ambiance. Mini bar with soft drinks was complimentary. Location was perfect also.

I requested a late check-out (just one hour), but the negative response was delivered in a rather unfriendly, frosty manner — not what I would expect from a hotel of this standard. I travel frequently, and this experience with reception felt really below par. 21/09/25

Francis Hotel Bath is currently undergoing some refurbishment so unfortunately there was no lift to the third floor. The hotel warned us of the on-going work before our arrival which was very much appreciated. The staff made us feel very welcome and I very much appreciated the facilities provided in the bedroom. It was a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

High standard without elevator

We had a great stay at the Francis hotel in the city center. The standard of the hotel was fantastic, but no elevator made the return to the room 3rd floor a nightmare. Parts of the hotel were under construction but thatvdidn’t affect our stay.
