Hotel Indigo Bath by IHG

Hotel Indigo Bath by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Hotel Indigo may be the prettiest hotel I have stayed at, and especially for a book lover. You know a hotel is pretty when you're taking pics of the general bathroom stalls and sending them to you friends. But seriously, what an amazing hotel. Every part was beautifully set up my room was delightful and lovely. The staff were so helpful, both from taking my luggage when I was too early for checkin (and took it up and had it in the room ready for me) to recommending where to go and what to do. The hotel breakfast was excellent and the bar was perfecr for a late night drink. Location wise it is barely a 5 min walk from the Bath station and within walking distance of EVERYTHING you'd want to go and see and do. I have not stopped talking about how much I enjoyed my 2 day stay there and am in fact planning a trip back before end of year solely to be able to stay there again! 5 stars, A plus and every other superlative you can think of."
