Bath Spa Railway Station and the main Bus station are about 15-20 minutes flat walk away from the hotel, and we would encourage you to take the walk as it passes the Abbey, the Parade Gardens and Pulteney Bridge en route.

Roman Baths
The stunning roman remains over Bath's natural hot springs is one of those must sees of any trip to England. The remains give a vivid impression of life nearly 2000 years ago under Roman occupation.
Pump Rooms
Above the Roman Baths Temple, designed by Thomas Baldwin (the same guy that designed Carfax!), this elegant building became a popular meeting place in the C18. Today you can take afternoon tea to the accompaniment of the Pump Room Trio.
Royal Crescent
The grandest of Bath's many Georgian crescents, the Royal Crescent was built by John Wood the Younger between 1767 and 1774.
It consists of thirty elegant mansions of freestone, uniformly built. Breathtakingly a 'Must See'.
Museum of Costume
Fantastic permenant exhibits of 18th centuary clothing, and internationally acclaimed changing exhibitions of many stlyes and periods.
