Overall a good place to stay. Breakfast was very nice and staff provide excellent service. The only minor inconvenience we experienced during our stay was the occasional noise at night during strong winds, likely due to vibrations from outside, possibly caused by the building’s age.

It was great to be in an old pub in the centre of Bath where the bed and bathroom were very clean and luxurious, and yet the pub still had that local vibe. Loved the rhubarb gin as well as the great pints of bitter. Would definitely stay at the pub again when we next visit Bath.

Overall a good stay, the rooms are dated and there were large damp patches on the walls but the beds were comfortable and the bathroom is nicely done. Very convenient location and a few minutes walk to the shopping and amenities. The pub itself is lovely, and the included breakfast was very nice.

Probably not everyone’s cup of tea. But I wanted a unique local experience in Bath. The property certainly delivered on that. There was a busy local pub. The breakfast was certainly one of the highlights. The room was large and the bed comfortable.
