The Gainsborough Bath Spa

In the heart of Bath, a 5-star city-center boutique hotel just steps from the Roman Baths and Thermae Bath Spa. Stall Street shopping, Bath Abbey, theatres and galleries are all a short stroll away, so culture, history and shopping are literally outside the door.

Rooms mix modern and period touches with custom furnishings, jewel tones and blackout curtains. Expect plush beds, flat-screen HD TVs, Roberts radios/Bluetooth, complimentary Wi‑Fi, heated bathroom floors, iPod docks and in‑room safes — some rooms include minibar items and robes/slippers.

An on-site full-service spa taps into Bath’s natural thermal waters and offers a thermal circuit, saunas, steam rooms, ice alcove and dedicated treatment rooms. Other highlights include a pool, 24-hour fitness centre, concierge services and valet parking (pre-booking required; fee applies). Spa access is age-restricted to adults and complimentary for residents during select morning and evening slots.

A 24-hour business centre, complimentary Wi‑Fi and 2 meeting rooms with 2,164 sq ft (201 m²) of event space make this a solid pick for small conferences and meetings. Dry cleaning and 24-hour front desk services keep business travel smooth.

On-site dining ranges from an all-day brasserie to a stylish bar and 24-hour room service. Enjoy an award-winning restaurant focused on seasonal West Country flavours, creative patisserie and classic afternoon tea, plus cocktails featuring local gin; English breakfast is served each morning for a fee.
