Bath Travel Forum

Has anyone stayed at the Bath Hilton and could offer an assessment? I'm considering booking their for a night in July, and I wanted to make sure it was comfortable and in a good location. Thanks for any help.

if it is bath city hilton,there is nothing more central.
im sure its up to the usual hilton standards.

Have you checked their web site at http://www.hilton.co.uk/bathcity?WT.srch=1 ?
Out of interest I checked their prices. A one night stay cost upwards of £150, doesn't appear to include breakfast and to park your car at the hotel costs £9.50!
It seems that they are aiming to get the American type tourist who don't mind about the cost as much as the Hilton name.
I'm sure you can get a decent quality hotel for a lot less that this in Bath and an example is the Ayrlington hotel, which is also a 5 star establishment. Rooms cost from £80, includes a full English breakfast and secure parking is free. http://www.ayrlington.com/

yes dave not in my price bracket, but like you say
they probably aim at the american type,and the original post was american.
so i guessed he already knows hilton prices,and passed comment on location which was part of the original question.

The comparitive hotel I mentioned is also in the heart of Bath, so are several others.
Sorry if I offend anyone, but if someone is willing to put prestige above cost they have more money than sense.
For the price difference between these hotels you could hire a large saloon car for touring while on holiday.

No offense taken. I appreciate the candid comments. My trip through Bath is related to business travel, so the gaining of "hotel points" becomes part of the decision in choosing accomodations. Price also becomes a bit less of an issue (all hotels will be cheap relative to the room cost in London). I do, though, appreciate your suggestions of other more unique places in the Bath city center. Any other suggestions would be no less welcome. Thanks in advance.

no offence taken either dave,cost to me is most important as long as it is clean and welcoming.
most of my travels are budget based,it is my trump card when blagging a few days
away on my own.
back to Bath it seems from what i have seen,Bath is very compact,and everywhere
reachable on foot
