The hotel was lovely. My only complaint is they withheld 20% of my arrival deposit. Usually that is fully refund as there were no issues.

The Gainsborough Bath Spa was ideally located, enabling us to easily do and see what we wished during our 2-day stay in Bath. Of particular note and importance to us was the very comfortable bed since we’ve experienced many beds in Europe that are too firm for our comfort. We had exceptionally fine massages in their spa, for which we are thankful to Hana, our massage therapist.
