Wentworth House - Free Parking

We verbleven één nacht in Wentworth House. De locatie was handig – slechts 6 à 7 minuten met de taxi naar het centrum van Bath. Parkeren op eigen terrein was gratis, wat altijd prettig is, hoewel er beperkte parkeerplaatsen waren. De douche werkte prima met goed warm water, en met £120 per nacht voor drie personen was de prijs niet onredelijk voor Bath. Een minpuntje is dat het hotel erg gedateerd is en een flinke modernisering kan gebruiken. Onze kamer rook muf en de enkelvoudige beglazing hielp niet om de kamer warm of stil te houden. Over het eten kan ik niets zeggen, want we hebben er niet gegeten, maar over het algemeen is het een prima optie als je gewoon een plek zoekt voor een nacht en niet al te kieskeurig bent – ​​al zou een opknapbeurt de plek echt een stuk beter maken.

De kamer ruikt naar verf, waardoor ik het gevoel heb dat er iets giftigs in de kamer zit. Bovendien loopt het water in de doucheruimte helemaal niet weg.

The room and bed were excellent, and the service friendly and attentive. The only thing I would have preferred was some proper coffee at breakfast - only instant coffee was available. Otherwise, exceedingly content.

Danny on reception was great, he made us feel welcome and offered some tips and advice for enjoying Bath and beyond. Location is good, we walked down to the centre of town in around 20-25 minutes (downhill all the way in, uphill all the way back), there are shared bikes/scooters around as well if you're inclined to make use of electrical motor assistance. The nearby recreational park has nice views over Bath, as do parts of the hotel grounds. The hotel has a homely feel, though it also features a large flat screen TV in the room (Not sure why anyone visiting Bath would be staying in watching TV) It's situated along a smaller side-road, and we had a quiet stay overnight after returning from Bath. There's plenty of outdoor space for relaxing in too, with benches and grass- felt like a beer garden. The room itself was decent, bed large and comfortable, though the carpet had seen better days, and the shower cubicle could do with some love. The shower itself ran just fine, and the complimentary gels/shampoos were a nice touch. Our room featured a conservatory, which was a nice touch, though the patio door lock didn't seem to lock. Not a big issue as the doors at entry/exit for the room had locks too, but worth noting. Overall, Wentworth House offers good value, in a decent location, and will see you through pretty well if you're looking to see Bath without dealing with parking, expensive hotels or extra fuss.

Bed had two mattresses on it, the top one was very soft and I couldn't get to sleep until about 4am, when I removed it and slept on the bottom (harder) mattress. Shower was fine.

Nice location with free car parking space, suitable for a short trip in Bath

Expensive for the quality

The place the village views

Lovely place to stay for a weekend getaway. Cosy and small room which was perfect for two of us!
