I’d never stay here again, nor recommend it to others. Disappointing on almost every level. Complicated check-in where a code is supposed to be sent to your phone, doesn’t arrive and you end up having to phone an out of hours number. Grubby public areas and staircase. Pokey room with furniture stuffed into it. Dirty carpet. Noisy toilet. Tricky shower. Shampoo in a foil sachet like ketchup for your chips.

Dirty shower. Tired furniture. Uncomfortable bed. Just an old place, not worth what they're charging, by far not worth it. Even down to the little sachets of shampoo. Like ketchup. Can you not just get a bottle?

We were looking for an old English character house/hotel and found it here. We loved our short stay. Clean, quiet, delicious English style breakfast, affordable room. Slept soundly. It’s roughly a 200 year old house, so expect a few rough corners. It was exactly what we wanted.
Key pad self check in had me double thinking our stay but it worked flawlessly

Lovely location in Bath, and the staff lady there was really friendly and helpful. I was put into a room with the biggest four poster bed I've ever had and slept quite well. Breakfast was lovely. I do have some things to note though that they could improve upon.

Parts of the room were quite tired with wallpaper coming off the wall in places, and the lampshade above the four poster was a veritable graveyard for flies which was a bit gross. Two of the electric sockets didn't work in the room either.

That said, I did enjoy my stay there and it was excellent for the price. With a bit of TLC on the property, this place would be exceptional.

The room was clean, bedding, etc. The floors were aweful squeaky, so we could hear when the folks in the room above us moved around, so between the night owls above us, and our own night visits to the rest room..it wasn't a restful sleep. It's an old historic building and beautiful, but definitely needs tlc in the rooms, and most definitely the floors. The building is unmanned which we did not realize until check in for those who prefer on prem staffing.The hot breakfast was good, but pricey for the serving size provided. Breakfast is served between 8-9:30 as an fyi.The breakfast staff member was amazing and friendly!

The initial booking in was a nightmare as we were not sent the check in email. Had it not been for friends travelling with us we would not have got access as even after Expedia customer services tried we still couldn't check in. Adding to that the third couple that we were travelling with had not been booked by expedia i tobthe hotel despite having a confirmation email fro january 2025!
The room was in poor condition with black mould in the shower. Floor tiles on the shower not bonded to the floor well and grouting cracked. Fitted carpets not actually fitted properly and looked like a patch job. The plug socket for the room kettle was not working and as such we had to carry boiling water across the room from the only working sockets. The front edge of the shelf behindcthe toilet had a dangerous edge with no rounded tile trim the exposed cut edge of the tile making it hazardous if the bathroom floor was wet. No hot water for showering.
However on the plus side breakfast was of a good quality and fresh the staff were very friendly and clearly made the best of a bad situation with Vipin going above and beyond waiting for us to arrive beyond his finishing time to assist us getting us all accommodated.

1. Unlit driveway entrance making it hard to find after dark..
2 . No reception for enquiries we had for extra supplies needed
3. Uneven floors underneath very dated carpets making it dangerous for anyone unsteady on feet
4. Worn out firnishings ..like Ripped couch in one of rooms, very tired wing chairs that need reupholstry
5. Unclean conditions
Sadly we had not much choice at the time of booking so had to settle for this place
On the passable ... Bedding was clean & down was confortable
We had the lower garden suite with 2nd bedroom ..thd extra space was good.
Bathroom refreshed but not for a person taller than 6' !

Location was excellent. Check in was smooth. Towels and bedding were clean.
The rooms were warm and that’s where the bad stuff starts. The decor was clean but very uninspiring, the furnishings some were old and dirty and damaged. This could all be improved. What can’t be changed is the second bedroom. This room has two single beds between the main bed room and the bathroom. I’m not claustrophobic but I’m not exaggerating to say I had a panic attack sleeping in there. It’s a big room with no windows, it was pitch black with lights off and unbearably warm. There was a night light provided which was too bright and if you open the door to the bathroom which was cold there was a constant drip. I found it oppressive and barely slept.
The bath room was ok for one night but I wouldn’t want to shower there, they’ve tried to make it look good but it’s shabby and tiny with a very low roof.
With an update on the furnishings and layout the rest could be improved but the second bedroom without any natural light or air can’t be changed. Not to put people off just so your aware .

This is clearly a new property for Oyo judging by the temporary signs, non working mobile number at the entrance, temporary heaters in public areas etc
It is a very old building suffering from its age; damaged ceilings, poor paintwork, loose shower fittings to name what was immediately obvious. I’m sure it’ll improve but needs serious investment.

When we drove up to the property, we thought, “What did we get ourselves into?” But then we found our room and it was splendid.

The hotel is a bit outside the city center, but getting to the city center is walkable. There are sidewalks the full 1.9 miles, and there’s only one semi-dangerous traffic circle.

The Bailbrook Lodge is a very old, traditional hotel, shabby but spotlessly clean with lovely white linen. Our en suite had a rolltop bath. Rumour has it the room next to ours is haunted but we heard no noise whatsoever during our stay. As it is pretty close to the centre of Bath we got a taxi in and out to the sights rather than take the car. Staff were very friendly and I would recommend a stay here. Only downside was the Wifi which only worked intermittantly and on the ground floor rather than upstairs in the rooms.

I read the many scathing reviews and found OYO (who manage this place) an absolutely infuriating company to deal with and feared the worst. But the codes to access our rooms came through on time (2 hours before check in) and we didn’t need them anyway as there was a very helpful guy to welcome us in person. The room had lots and lots of charm but it’s an old place and there’s not really any glass-and-chrome if you know what I mean. We had “superior” rooms which may well have made a difference and weren’t too pricey. I’d stay again but OYO you have to raise your game!

Dissatisfaction

To whom it may concern

I did not enjoy my stay last night and I will leave a review for you and I will be writing to hotels.com also to register my dissatisfaction with the following;

Unclean room.
Damp room with a piece of paper covering this.
Tatty and well worn Furniture and carpet.
Mirror dirty spots on it and is cracked.
One towel not fresh, blank marks on it.
Shower not fit sit purpose, too hot as temperature control did not work, I have to get out of the shower snd washed mr hair in the sink this morning. In addition as not secured to the wall properly.
Sink plug home blocked easily and then gurgled when taking time to drain.
TV stand leg broken.

I arrived after 9pm last night and left at 6.30am so no time this morning when I discovered the main faults of the shower facilities etc. to report them.

This is to list the main complaints:

I would like to hear your reply and justification for the sub-standard room and lack of cleanliness.

I very unhappy customer.

Bring your own shower gel & shampoos.

Small things can really be really annoying; like I broke my finger nail trying to open the shower gel sachet. Even my husband couldn’t open it. Had to use my nail cutter to open in the end. For future trip, I advise myself to bring my own shower gel and shampoos.

I was greeted by the manager of the hotel who was friendly and was also friendly and accommodating throughout my stay.
I had an issue with the shower which was dealt with efficiency.
The room was novice and the Bed was very comfy.
I would add that there was mould on one of the walls and the wall paper was coming away and mould in the bathroom, also under the toilet seat was damaged. All of these things are easy to fix and would make the room more appealable.

I would never recommend this hotel. Our room was on the 3rd floor, no elevator and the room was shocking. Worn and dilapidated. There is no one to talk to, no lobby or anyone working there. we only saw one person ( very friendly) who was doing breakfast which was £8 continental (pretty dismal) or £15 for hot breakfast which we never had.
The reviews gave it a rating of 8.8, but if you look, that number was from years ago. The shower drizzles out and you have to run it for ages before you get hot water. Once that came in it was fine. Again, we could not wait to get out of there.

When we arrived the door to our room had a programmed key pad which was not working properly and would not respond to the codes we entered. The one staff person who was there dismissively tried to help us and had to call his boss to find out how to circumvent the locking system on the door. The man he called had no solutions, so the young male person who was helping us, used force to bust into the room. He was then able to fix the locking mechanism and instructed us not to use the dead bolt lock that was operated from the inside of the room. There was no signage in the room to indicate that no one should use the dead bolt lock. So we did not feel safe. The carpet in the hotel looked filthy and the place had a musty smell. It took 30 minutes to get into our room.

Quite a disappointment.

We were fortunate that a young man happened to be there when we checked in to show us how to get into our room. I suppose it was an attempt to have antiques, but that does not mean comfort. The bed needs to be put out to pasture. The drapes were threadbare. Our interior door knob came totally off. The light over the bathroom did not work. The water pressure was barely enough to rinse the soap off. We did not choose the continental breakfast which consisted of cereal toast for 8 pounds. We walked out into the back garden, and there was trash all against the building. Not a very pleasant place to sit and enjoy.

Was obviously nice once but now very run down. Staff friendly, free parking. Bus stop very close and best way of getting into the city. Also a short walk. Breakfast is best avoided, recommend Cosy Club in the city, it was also cheaper! You get what you pay for here and it is comparatively cheap. The photos on the website were obviously taken in a better era or heavily edited, they do not portray the premises as it is now. If you just want a cheapish room within easy distance of the city then this is ok.

For the price, absolutely no complaints!

Especially in Bath, hotels are very expensive. This hotel was significantly cheaper. Even compared to the (proper) Bailbrook hotel (which will be nicer), I would definitely say it's worth saving the money and come here.

It's somewhat dated (I haven't seen a Corby trouser press before, I thought it was a myth!), but for the cash you get a nice bathroom, tea/coffee facilities and a comfy bed. What more do you want for half the price of a 4 star or a Travelodge?

On top of this, you get free parking (although it is limited), and therefore easily outweighs and negatives.

The only thing I would say is that they really need to modernise the bathroom, the shower was awful in term of pressure and was either too hot or not hot enough at times.

The manager provided exceptional service - and this was for a facility that was offering a code to self-serve your check-in. We were advised about bus routes into Bath (there is a congestion toll for drivers) which were very close by, the breakfast was very well priced with excellent service provided, we were allowed to leave our car after checkout until the afternoon, the road is a little busy for walking but the room was quiet and spacious.

The worst hotel I’ve ever seen

It was my worst experience with a hotel ever. First thing I noticed when we arrived is that everything in this hotel was extremely old and the hotel had an overall atmosphere of a hunted house from a movie. When we checked in we were given a dirty room with stains and dust everywhere + pee stains on the toilet (simply disgusting). When we tried to boil some water we noticed that a kettle had mold inside of it. When I sat on the bed I realised that it was lumpy as well. We asked a receptionist to change a room, on which he replied that there wouldn’t be much difference because all rooms are the same (dirty and old I assume). He advised that they understand our concerns and would reimburse what we paid if we chose to leave. Since we arrived quite late I decided to stay for that night, just shower and go to bed, and leave the next day (it was booked for 2 days). However, the cherry on top was the fact that didn’t have any hot water (when you switch to hot, water just stops). I could not believe it, this is literally a bare minimum. I told the receptionist that I will not stay in this conditions and asked if he would process a refund. He promised me that I will receive it in a couple of days. I left basically in the middle of the night to go look for another hotel. Needless to say, that they never provided me with any promised refund and hotels.com was not able to help me either.

Step back in time

Booked for a girls night away to visit the spa in Bath & visit xmas markets.
I can only describe the lodge as in desperate need of a referb, it was like stepping back in time.
The room was twin but the beds were sunk in the middle & looked like they were from the 80s. You could see the line across the wall where an old double bed was previously. The wallpaper was peeling off & a water stain apparent across the ceiling from a previous leak. Drafty window which was kept at bay by the shutters & curtains but i suspect if going in icy conditions then the room would be cold. The carpet was dirty & stained. The bathroom was mouldy & we chose not to shower because we both felt cleaner by not doing so, the whole bathroom needed gutting.
The place has got a 2* overall for the basic but nice enough continental breakfast.
Both staff we dealt with were lovely.
The cost was £121 which for the state of the place is ludicrous to be honest. It could be lovely but needs a lot of money spending on it to bring it up to standard.

Comfortable and Friendly

This was a convenient hotel about 10 minutes by taxi from the city centre. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted and our room was spacious with good amenities. The bed was extremely comfortable and the shower although a bit cramped was powerful. It was lovely that you were provided with a fob to gain access to the hotel outside of operating hours. Although the hotel may be in need of an update, our state was pleasant and comfortable.

Apart from the duty manager (who for some reason says he’s worked at the Hotel for a few years … why !) who was polite and at least apologetic, the Bailbrook lodge which has massive potential has been let down by underinvestment. We had room 9 in the dungeon (basement) - TV ariel connection broken (was fixed but why in that state in the first place) , Toilet needed strongman strength to repeatedly flush to get water to do its thing. But the shower room was so grubby and dirty - no one heard of bleach or steam cleaners ? Hotel breakfast was not one to take up after hearing it was continental only. Such a shame we stayed here before COVID when it wasn’t an OYO and was great. Save yourselves and book the Bailbrook House next door instead. Only redeeming features is its location to Bath and bus stops.

Historic gem

Only rated condition to warn you that this is a vintage property with vintage furnishings. For me that is a positive! It was just lovely and historic.
Great to have ample parking in Bath. Just be aware it is a single narrow driveway, second on the north if coming off the A46, by the time you see it you are past. So go slow! It is very hard to turn around on those streets. (The very first entrance to some parking behind a low stone wall IS NOT the hotel!) Take the drive immediately east and go up the hill.
Breakfast wasn’t huge but included everything that should be in a continental so a pleasant surprise.
Not a lot within walking distance but there is a good grocery store less than a mile away (Morrisons) and bus service is good in Bath.
I had to travel to Bath unexpectedly because of a family emergency and this was a great place to land, very reasonable and with great character.

Lovely charming stay

Well reading the reviews before our stay this seems to be a 'marmite' hotel.
In our opinion, it was wonderful... lovely room with 4 poster bed and lovely friendly service.
We went out for breakfast there are numerous options near by.
It isn't a modern shiny, characterless hotel. It's a delightful hotel full of charm and original features.
Thank you.

Would not recommend

Very out dated hotel, shower didn't have any hot water. The room felt unclean, the whole vibe I got from the hotel was the type of hotel that you would see in a horror/haunted hotel movie. I don't think it was worth the price at all, could do with a good clean and decoration refresh.

This was such a lovely hotel. It is a little further out, but the bus stops right across the street and is a 10 minute drive to the Bath Abbey. You could also probably walk it in 30 minutes.

The manager was very accommodating when we arrived late. No fuss.Beautiful period room.
Perhaps some areas of tiredness in the room. Like the carpet but it was clean and the bed was very comfortable.
Fantastic view.
Short distance from the bus stop. Free parking.

A very lovely period hotel set amongst a beautiful garden. Convenient for trips around the Bath area without the worry of parking in central Bath when you return. Just under a 2 mile walk to Roman Baths, but there are other sights not much more than a mile away, and there is a nice walk in via the the canal to the centre.

1* at best

The photos on the site look like the building has old building charm, in reality it is run down and money needs to be spent to stop it from being totally ruined
Broken windows, shower head disgusting, windows don’t stay open, bed and pillows very soft and very lumpy

This hotel is a short bus ride from the city centre which we used regularly. Free parking and a very helpful host that could not do enough.

Friendly, helpful staff. Room was clean, good bed and shower although some furniture and flooring was very worn. Can't comment on breakfast as I had to leave early. Overall a reasonable stay.

Excellent bed; weak supporting cast

Beautiful building on a nice location. Staff very friendly. Beautiful bedroom with antique furniture including a (comfy) oak four-poster bed. Sadly, the ensuite was also fairly antiquated: getting the shower to temperature required a combination of regular mechanically-sympathetic tweaking of the controls, and some appropriate utterances to the minor deities of plumbing. Bring your own toiletries or prepare to be frustrated by tiny tear-open packets, which provide the opposite of the eco-friendly credentials they claim. No aircon in the room, either, so expect it's hot in summer! Breakfast offering fairly weak - for the price, I would rather go to a local cafe.

The host was fantastic and helped me plan an easy walk to a great pub for dinner and a Spectacular trip to Bradford on Avon and Castle Combs. This historic property was fully booked, and I never saw or heard another guest. It was so quiet and pleasant.

A bit tired and showing its age. The shower only kicked out scalding hot water and dribbled out. The toilet wouldn’t flush and when it did barely.

The location and property is stunning as always just needs a sprucing up!
