We stayed in a lively 'plus' room with a spacious bath/shower room and a great green view over the back. Excellent breakfast in a bright and bustling breakfast room in the morning. Not cheap but an excellent location close to Pulteney Bridge but far enough on a very pretty but quiet side street to mean there was no hassle or... More

General Comments: I stayed here with my girlfriend in February 2013. This hotel was absolutely superb from start to finish, from the quality of the rooms, the helpfulness of the staff, to the fantastic location and atmosphere - it was just a wonderful experience and we had an absolutely fantastic time. Without hesitation I would (and will definitely) go back... More

The Carfax is on Great Pulteney Street - more of a boulevard than a street, really, 1,000 feet long and 100 wide, apparently - and it has the excellent Holburne Museum (well worth a visit, and a good cafe) at the eastern end, with the City only a short hop over the bridge to the west. It is one of... More

We stayed two nights in Bath at the end of April. It was a Sunday night when we arrived and the parking was pretty bad. The hotel has a small carpark at the back, but only 7 spaces. They have vouchers for parking on the street but you have to be lucky to find a spot. Fortunately we were there... More

We stayed at the Carfax for a bank holiday weekend as a family (me, wife and daughter). We had two rooms and the hotel allocated adjacent rooms as requested. We are fans of Georgian architecture and the Carfax is in a row of such houses with the Holburne Museum at the end of the road. Only a short walk into... More

Hotel was a bit tired, as was the room. Bathroom lock didn't work, some grouting missing. But good value for money overall. Off street parking a real plus in Bath. Very good location. Staff friendly. Breakfast was excellent - great selection

Smashing breakfast, scrambled eggs cooked to perfection, juicy fried mushrooms, 'slice your own' fresh bread with lashings of english butter and melt in the mouth croissants are just some of the goodies on offer each morning. Our room, 26, was large with a rear view over-looking parkland. No noise from outside, creaky floor boards from above. OK so the main... More

Beautiful hotel, great location right in the centre of everything and very pretty. Staff were very helpful and as it was my birthday, my boyfriend had emailed beforehand to ask for a nice room - when we arrived we were told we had been upgraded to a suite free of charge. The room was gorgeous with lots of space and... More

Friendly helpful people made my 3 friends and me feel very welcome at this hotel situated so conveniently close to the centre of Bath and with great car parking facilities. Our rooms were warm and comfortable in spite of the sub-zero temperatures with plenty of hot water. Considering this historic building is only single glazed we were surprised how quiet... More

I booked one night in a triple room for me and two friends. Availability in Bath for that night was limited and the Carfax was the only place to have a suitable room. It was quick and easy to book through the Visit Bath website and I received a confirmation directly back from the hotel with useful information about the... More
