Loved by The Black Fox guests
"This old building was quaint and exactly what we'd hoped."
"The bath tub was amazing, I took the longest bath ever."
"A major plus is its walkability to sites of interest (Thermae Spa, the Roman Baths, the Pump Room), all less than 10 minutes' walk."

“There's something appealing in how this property combines a traditional British pub with a place to stay, steps from Bath's Roman heart. I appreciate that the daily breakfast isn't an afterthought, and that they seem willing to work with dietary needs. The location certainly eases exploring the city; being that close to the train station is a definite plus.”

The breakfast included a good selection (it had both english and continental options). the room had a dyson fan, useful. the location was perfect for shopping. I could easily walk to many stores.
the floors were uneven, and i nearly fell into the door jamb. accessing the room required navigating a narrow stairwell. i found the advertised car park was actually a public car park a street away (a bit of a trek).
