Hotel spa was not available due to maintenance, which was disappointing, but complimentary use spa across the street. Staff was lovely, breakfast wonderful and facilities modern, clean and well kept.

We had a wonderful experience at the Gainsborough Bath Spa hotel during a short visit to town. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We had a couples massage during our stay and the spa in the hotel is top notch. The room was gorgeous with high ceilings and a nice separation of spaces. The nightly turndown service was unexpected and appreciated. We pretty much loved everything about this place!

The spa is terrific for adults only, and a great feature to have access in the morning and night for guests. Be aware rooms listed as 'sleeps 3' is incorrect. We had a six year old and thought a bed for parents and pull-out couch or cot was available and it was not. So if you have non-baby children, best get additional rooms, or stay elsewhere.

The building has that to the manor born vibe, and the rooms were spacious and comfy, with the requisite furnishings. The one glaring issue for me was the bathtub/shower. The unit stands high, so very typical of many European baths, and while there was a safety bar handle on the far wall to assist with getting into or up from the tub, there was not one on the wall where you would enter and exit the bathtub itself. This is such a major safety issue. It’s a no-brainer to address so am surprised that such an elite hotel would overlook something so basic. Also, the hotel needs to up its eco-friendliness. Small plastic toiletries might seem luxurious but at this point it’s just irresponsible! They can provide name-brand bathroom amenities in a socially responsible way!

Nice hotel, although I don’t feel as though the advertising on children not being able to use the indoor pool was at all clear. For this reason I would have stayed elsewhere. Also I think for the nightly rates the spa access window should be bigger. Other than that, decent hotel in a good location.

Fantastic customer service.
The property is unbelievably fantastic. The spa was what you expect. Very nice fitness center. The staff was friendly and helpful. our sleeping room was extremely comfortable. The only thing that I could say was if you stay on the first floor, the outside noise in the morning from all the deliveries is extremely loud. That basically is the only negative information.

Excellent 5 star stay!
An excellent stay for 2 nights in Bath for our anniversary. Staff were extremely helpful and went above and beyond to accommodate us. The spa was brilliant, we had a bath spa room so could access at any time and was good to have time that was less busy. Great central location. We would definitely reccomend!!

Great Spa facilities
Really nice hotel for thermal waters. Spa reception was super helpful and very welcoming, different pools allow warm or hot water and although one of the saunas was out of order for the 2 day duration we were there, the infrared sauna was working (except for one infrared panel out of about 6). The steam room worked incredibly well and the fresh towels with essential oils and fresh waters with cucumber were a delight to have at hand. The pool area is kept very clean and there are plenty of towels and great facilities in the changing rooms. We had to remind one of the room cleaners to give us clean spoons, cups and paper toasters the second day, but they were incredibly prompt to provide these and overall service was good. One expects very high quality service at a 5* hotel and the Gainsborough certainly fulfilled it.

My second time visiting and again a very enjoyable stay. The hotel is lovely and in a convenient location for the town and train station. Staff were very helpful during our stay and the spa area is a real highlight. Only minor disappointment vs previous stay was limited opening times for the spa that were complementary. As a result during these times it was very busy. Overall though I’d recommend if you’re visiting Bath then to stay here.

Ideal location and Helpful staff
The hotel is ideally located nearly in the center of Bath and, importantly, atop one of the hot spring outlets that give Bath its name and history. Each morning and each evening, guests can use the baths for free for two hours. This is not at all the normal thing I would do but because of the Roman connection, I tried it. It was a great experience in many ways. The entire staff of the hotel was well-trained and eager to help. The concierge staff was particularly sharp and I asked plenty of them. They always came through. We stayed in a newer wing of the hotel which involved a bit of a maze getting from the lobby to the room. But it was quiet and getting to the street took less time.
