The staff was very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent. The parking could be a problem. There was a limited area for parking and entering or leaving the parking was problematic at times. It took us almost 20 minutes to maneuver out of our spot on the departure day. It was a minor inconvenience and overall the stay was very good.

We had a lovely 3 night stay. Our twin room was on the top level with four flights of stairs. It was ok once we got used to them, but was a little hard with luggage. But the views were great over towards Bath city. The location was great and was an easy walk into the main city area which we managed each day. Breakfast was a lovely start to each day.

I was honestly expecting more from the property. It was okay, but it looks quite different from the pictures and could use a refresh. That said, we still had a wonderful time, and the staff were incredibly nice and welcoming.

The service at the Ayrlington was wonderful, the receptionists were super helpful and seemed genuinely happy to help. The room was large and the communal areas are well kept. We also particularly liked our bathroom. I would say however that the hotel is not the usual 5*. This rating appears to be several years old. We were disappointed with a couple of decorative things, like bleach stains on the accent chairs and paint missing from the dressing table. We’d also recommend replacing the pillows, as they are incredibly flat. All that said, this was still a comfortable stay and very good value for money in beautiful Bath.

Every thing about the hotel was okay except for the room and especially the bathroom. Unable to open the window in there as a notice on it said “Do not open, awaiting repair” but looking at the state of it it been awaiting some time. Also the sink plug did not hold any water and the tap was faulty to the point it was dangerousand even though we reported it nothing was done about it. Considering the price we paid it was not good value, but I guess that’s the Bath effect.

Pleasan, convenient, old world charm (a bit faded)

Pretty place that's a short, pleasant walk from the center of Bath. Large room and bathroom, big windows with nice gardens and view, although a little less 4 star than expected. Rooms could use some painting and upgrading; they are a little faded right now. Felt a little pricey for what it was.

In general good but not sure about 5*

Nice place. Easy enough to walk to centre. Room at front very noisy with traffic. At back would probably be ok. Few things that I felt didn’t live up to its 5* for example curtain hanging off rail, shower hose leaking too badly to use (rain did work), taps wrong way round (hot=cold etc) Minor points. Really didn’t like being automatically charged on my card for breakfast before we had even left our room to go to breakfast room!! Should be charged after breakfast IMO as normal after any dining experience. I didn’t give permission to charge my card before an event! Improper use of my card

Comfortable and conveniently located hotel

We booked the Grand Suite which was beautiful and comfortable with our own access to a private garden. Bianca at the reception was most courteous, helpful and friendly - she even helped us carry our luggage from the car. The hotel is in a great location with walking distance to the city center. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciate Bianca’s hospitality. Will definitely recommend to friends visiting Bath.
