Services

Bath Place Hotel offers free Wi-Fi and off-street parking for £30 per day. The hotel provides accommodations and parking since 1989. Dogs and cats are welcome in certain rooms for a one-off charge of £15 for stays of up to two nights.

“The hotel's location, a stone's throw from the Sheldonian Theatre and Bodleian Library, is undeniably a draw, as is its claimed historical ambiance within 17th-century cottages; the continental breakfast and dog-friendly rooms are nice touches. However, reports of maintenance issues and noise from the adjacent pub give me pause; it sounds like a mixed bag of character and potential inconvenience. Proceed with tempered expectations, balancing the allure of history with the realities of its upkeep.”

The staff was kind. They were always attentive to any needs i had. the bed in my room provided excellent comfort. i especially appreciated the generous in-room tea service. It included a selection of biscuits. the location proved perfect, providing easy access to many local attractions.
The television in my room was quite small. A more modern, larger one would have been preferable.
