Hotel Description
The most impressively located luxury hotel in the magnificent City of Bath. The world’s finest crescent is one of the great set-piece masterpieces of European architecture, the most breathtaking feature in one of the world’s most elegant and enchanting cities. It’s hard to imagine a more splendid setting for a supremely elegant hotel that harks back to a time of extravagant luxury and exemplary refinement…and the stunning gardens are Bath’s best kept secret!
Luxury Hotel Accommodation
The Royal Crescent represents the ultimate in luxury accommodation in Bath. Each room has been lovingly restored to its original splendour with infinite care for recreating the authentic period details – carpets, furnishings, colour schemes and fabrics are all as they would have been in the eighteenth century.

These include an exceptional collection of paintings from such eighteenth century masters as Reynolds, Gainsborough and the satirical cartoonist Thomas Rowlandson. Throughout the hotel there are also many contemporary portraits of famous people who visited Bath, or lived there – Lord Nelson, Charles Dickens, William Pitt, George III, and the celebrated actress Sarah Siddons.

There are 45 bedrooms in all, arranged throughout the five elegant buildings that have been combined to create this remarkable hotel. Every room has its own unique character, but each has certain items in common. All rooms have luxuriously appointed en suite bathrooms and are graced with seasonal displays of freshly cut flowers. In addition most enjoy lovely views over the surrounding gardens, lawns and parklands.

The suites are all named after personalities either directly connected to the Royal Crescent or to Bath in its heyday – Ralph Allen, William Beckford, Duke of York, Sir Percy Blakeney, Jane Austen and Sir Thomas Gainsborough, to name but a few.

Each of the bedrooms and suites truly recreates the ambience and indulgence of Bath in its Georgian heyday, but with all the latest creature comforts the discerning guest could wish for.

However, if you'd like complete privacy in the beautiful gardens of The Royal Crescent with your own private access, then the Garden Villa is for you.
