Bath: stay in a bed and breakfast


Bath is one of the most picturesque cities in the world. With its iconic buildings, the Roman baths, the Abbey and beautiful parks such as Victoria Park that overlook the entire city, it's no wonder tourists visit from all over the world.

Due to being a tourist hotspot, visitors often need a place to stay for a night or two. There aren't as many hotels in the area as you might think though. And you might find that the bed and breakfast places are nicer to sit in playing Partypoker when it rains on the city. Here's why you ought to choose a bed and breakfast in bath, over a hotel.

Quality - The quality of service in a B&B far outweighs that of a hotel. The owners of the B&Bs are happy to help, and their service is far more personal. You only have to look at how quickly the rooms are snapped up to know that people would recommend them over and over.

Old fashioned - Most of the old B&Bs in Bath are built within some of the oldest and most idyllic houses in the city. They are furnished exquisitely, and give you a real sense of an England that has passed us by. They are quaint and relaxing, and you almost feel like you are sat in the kind of room Jane Austen would have written in, when she visited the city.

Romantic - If you are visiting the city on a long weekend with you partner, the atmosphere in a B&B is far more romantic than the typical hotel. The decoration itself makes the experience unique. You don't need any gimmicky decorations to give off the air of relaxed romance.

Price - For what you are getting, the B&Bs are very reasonably priced in Bath. When you compare it to the Holiday Inn near the centre of town, there isn't much difference for a higher quality of service. B&B owners take pride in their homes, they don't over price, because they would love for you to come again.
