Apex City of Bath Hotel
Clean and comfortable, in a great location for exploring beautiful Bath! Staff excellent, really welcoming and professional. Only drawbacks were the bathroom amenities (not great) and water pressure on the lower end. And room rate felt quite expensive, but seems like that’s inkeeping with Bath more ...
