Our Bath, UK Accommodation
We stayed in this accommodation in the early days of spring. We had a good sleep every night because the surrounding area was quiet.
We were given a triple room that’s lovely all around. The walls were papered, the floor carpeted, and the heating worked wonderfully. That was just as well since it went below freezing point when we were there—talk about unpredictable English weather, I guess.
Tea and coffee-making facilities were available in the room, as well as free water and biscuits, and they were replenished daily. That was something we loved because not many hotels do that.
The bathroom was a modern and spacious number, which we liked. Toiletries were free, and the room was cleaned daily–and such a thorough cleaning, too!
No, we didn’t get a room with a view of the rolling hills, but the parking lot it overlooked was nice and quiet. The halls always smelled fragrant, like flowers, which we also loved.
Pub and Restaurant
We spent most of our supper at the pub and restaurant below. The food came in large servings and was delicious. Our hosts were thoughtful enough to make hefty servings of the dishes we loved–thank you!
Getting to Bath
As for traveling to the center of Bath and back, we found no problem with that at all. Bus lines with direct links to Bath’s city center run regularly (24/7, even) and the bus stop is practically in front of the hotel. The journey only takes a few minutes and we enjoyed the lovely views the ride afforded.
Cost
As to the accommodation’s price, it was reasonable–a cheap hotel in Bath even.
Wrap Up
All in all, the Prince of Wales is a great hotel in Bath and a great place to stay!
