1. Car parking not available. Booked this hotel in part because of its car park. Confusing diversion road signs and not being able to book a space ahead of time, meant that the car park was already full by the time we arrived and we ended up parking some distance away. Not warned of this at the time of booking. 2. Check-in time delayed and offered nowhere to store suitcase. The room was not still not ready by the check-in time of 3 pm and we were not offered anywhere to stow our suitcase while we waited. 3. WiFi terrible. WiFi signal was patchy and slow. 4. Staff were so-so and service was disappointing for a 4 star hotel. Overall was 'meh' and would not recommend.

The Francis hotel was beautiful! The staff checking us in was friendly and the room itself was also very comfortable. It's located right in the center of town and it was very easy to walk around. We loved our stay in Bath and would recommend his hotel to others visiting.

This was a same day/late booking, as the original accommodation for this stay had been double booked, which I only found out 20 mins before leaving home. I was happy to book the hotel as I had previously visited to attend an afternoon "Perfume Experience", so I did have an idea of what to expect. For this visit I was attending the "Perfume Experience" as part of a very special friend's 50th birthday present which als included overnight stay. Having had the stress & diappointment of dealing the alternative accommodation's double booking, I can honestly say that we were both more than happy to have stayed with you. From the moment we arrived, the staff were extremely welcoming and couldn't have done more for us, weren’t able to check in as we were too ealy, however we were able to leave our overnight bags at reception and after explaining the stress of the accommodation fiasco, we were given a voucher for a free bottle of prosecco to help the birthday celebrations. When we did actually check in, we were informed our bags had already been put in our room. The room as well as the rest of the hotel were extremely clean and provide us with all that we needed for our stay. The complimentary teas, hot chocolate, milk and biscuits were greatly appreciated. Although, I had booked on a "room only" basis we paid for breakfast, which we took full advantage of - there was a good choice of cereals, fruit, drinks, bread, pastries and of course cooked items, which were still hot at 9.45am

Excellent staff but tired old rooms. I've never changed rooms in my life before but had to change twice for a one night stay. Reiterate that the staff were very helpful with this and indeed upgraded my room and comped me a glass of wine

Overpriced Travel Lodge
Came for New Year’s Eve, only one barman on, he said he couldn’t do a mojito cocktail as had no mint for four days, could no one have gone to a local shop to get some? No atmosphere in hotel despite being New Year. Very noisy outside our bedroom from various noises, very expensive for what it was and breakfast not even included!! Also, we found a needle in the car park which when we arrived set the tone for not a great stay. Tables on bar had no mats so were very sticky from where drinks had been sitting, also, a £20 parking charge for what was already a very overpriced stay.
