Absolutely first rate room. Very luxurious. We’d have welcomed a fridge, but otherwise absolute perfection. The bedroom and bathroom were enormous with whirlpool bath and shower. Breakfast was so good. Immaculate breakfast room and lovely staff. Freshly cooked to order with some pastries and yoghurt on a self serve area. Short walk to town which didn’t bother us. Parking was great. Nice touches here and there like water and umbrellas. A first rate place. Top end for a good price. We did find it odd that the self serve bar was shut so early. Wouldn’t it make more sense to have a mini bar in the rooms? And the shower grout needed a good scrub in some areas. These were the downsides and we’ll definitely be back.

We had a wonderful stay at Leighton House and giving the parking situation in Bath I was very relieved the hotel had a small onsite parking lot. The staff are very helpful and friendly. I was a little disappointed with the daily room service. We stayed 3 nights and although we left the notice on the door for ‘room service’ our towels were never changed. As a heads up to other guests, Bath is very hilly, and it’s a pretty long uphill walk from center city, up Wells Road, to the Leighton House.

Not a great nights sleep, poor sound insulation

The guest house is nice and serves a very good breakfast but it lacks amenities and the rooms are very basic. The biggest issue we had was the lack of sound insulation. We could clearly hear snoring from another room, and when the other room had a shower, it sounded like there was rain pelting on a flat roof above. Conversation could also be clearly be heard. I guess we were a little unlucky as our neighbours were really early risers and it meant we didn’t get a very good nights sleep, and above all else, it’s what I want more than anything from a hotel/guest house.

From check in through to check out the staff were very good. Breakfast was excellent and our room was comfy, quiet and had all the amenities that you would expect. The hotel was perfect for our stay and provided ample free parking which gave us a good base for our few days in Bath. It is halfway up a hill which was not a problem for us but for others not keen on walking up hill then be prepared to get a taxi or bus back from the town centre.

We had an enjoyable visit but as the last Guests to arrive we were given the room at the top of the house. Quite a hike for an 82yr old! Otherwise it was comfortable.
