The Roman baths. The Georgian splendour. The Regency era elegance- straight from the pages of a Jane Austen novel. All the history and culture of Bath is artfully brought together at The Gainsborough- a boutique hotel with modern vintage sensibilities. Make a grand entrance through the 18th century colonnades to be greeted by refined interiors- jewel tones and a sense of serenity. The soothing tone is set by the Spa Village- a unique space created around the natural thermal springs for which the city has been renowned - for centuries. Even the mosaic floor is an exact replica of the Roman tiles found here. Take a turn around the room with the Bath House Circuit- for an exclusive chance to dip into the waters- said to have healing properties. Go from infrared sauna to ice alcove- steam room to relaxation terrace. Then dive into a menu of aquatic spa therapies- with tatami rooms and a treatment space that includes its own thermal water tub. After all that relaxation- discover the other great pastime Bath is famous for- afternoon tea. The Gainsborough serves creative patisserie alongside loose leaf tea blends and champagne. Just be sure to leave room- and time- to enjoy the award-winning restaurant by Dan Moon. From Sunday lunch to indulgent tasting menus- the celebrated chef presents fine seasonal gastronomy with nods to his west country heritage- all served in a beautiful Georgian dining room. For aperitifs or nightcaps- mixologists in The Gainsborough Bar can mix you a Martini or introduce you to cocktail made from Bath Gin. It could be the perfect preprandial ahead of a sophisticated night on the town- after all- The Gainsborough puts you moments from galleries and theatres. But if your bed is beckoning- rooms answer the call with plush beds- period touches and plenty of creature comforts. The Gainsborough Bath Spa is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.Show More

Had high expectations of my stay and it was completely fulfilled and I was impressed. Overall welcome and ambience was just right being professional and sincere. Our bed room, junior suite after upgrading with extra fee, was reasonably sized although the bathroom with the layout of the door made it difficult and slightly dangerous to enter / close behind guest. The spa village was busy but understandable; it felt clean and very updated overall so there was less of a concern on hygiene which is understood can be difficult to maintain standards. The breakfast room, choices and service was fine as expected so it’s worth signing up for. Although by day 2, it was hard fo imagine having another breakfast so possibly having breakfast for one day as an option would be good. Would have liked to have body lotion in bathroom as I had to rely on the one available in the spa village… and with 2 nights stay, toiletries were not replenished … Always a nice welcome when soft drinks / mini bar is complimentary ; although it doesn’t cost a lot to fill a fridge but small gestures like these make guests feel more welcomed Thanks for a great stay; would like to take my 80 year old mum here sometime in future as she would enjoy it tremendously !!

The hotel is located in the city center, 5 minutes walking distance from the train station and bus station. If you drive here, you can park your car in the Southgate parking lot. We stayed for two nights. Due to poor sound insulation, we asked to change the room, but there was still noise from the road.
