Lansdown Grove
Traditional old establishment with many original features. Clean room, breakfast good, staff very polite and helpful. Having parking in bath was a plus. The location is also good proving the opportunity to walk down to the town, with the option to walk back or take the bus which stops right outside ...

Hotel was fully booked due to The Greatest Showman press ...
