“Good Value place to stay for a weekend in Bath”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Good value for money B&B
It is a bit dated with the decor.

We have stayed in Brocks manytimes, and its the location that really makes it ,situated between the Cresent and the Circus., its right in the heart of the city,. We have always found it quiet, and its also close to a large carpark.

There are a few restaurants very close by, including The Circus, almost next door, its very nice & makes a great place to meet up if your party are not all arriving at the same time.

For children, dont forget the Play ground in Royal Victoria park, which is super

Room Tip: THere is a variety of rooms, so check when you book - the middle floors have the higher ceilings you...

“Great place to stay in Bath. Thank you.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

A warm welcome from the moment we arrived to the end of our stay. An ideal place to stay, with comfortable room and facilities. Good location, within walking distance to the local attractions and city centre. Brocks issued Parking permit which was very handy indeed. Will return to Brocks again for both the hospitality and good location of this Guest House. Thank you Richard and to his staff. I would suggest packing your best walking shoes if visiting Bath as soo much to see (this has no bearing on the location of this lovely Guest House - just Bath itself..)

“Customer service: failed miserably”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012

Our Online reservation experience with Brocks left a rather bitter after-taste that almost destroyed our confidence with online (website) booking for other hotels in England.

We made a booking for a family room in Brocks Guest House through “visitbath.co.uk” along with 10% advance payment. We received the booking confirmation by email (after the usual checking for room availability) from "Visitbath", and our credit card payment was received and acknowledged.

A few days later, to our horror, we received the following email from Richard of Brocks,”I’m very sorry but we are fully booked for the dates requested. ..(we will) request a refund of your 10% deposit.” We were rather distressed, because we had received booking confirmation, made deposit payment in advance, and cancelled tentative bookings with other hotels.

We wrote to Richard to: 1) express our concerns about the poor integrity of the booking system, 2) get refund on our deposit, and 3) get an explanation of how a situation like this could have happened.

Instead of getting a reassuring response, we received a rather patronizing response from Richard,”It's called HUMAN ERROR, I do apologies but these things happen.” I couldn’t believe the response I got, so I had to telephone Richard just to hear Richard’s incredible explanation for myself, and to convince myself that Brocks Guest House isn’t just an internet scam. The phone calls cost more than my cash deposit, but I had to do it, otherwise this would’ve destroyed all my years of confidence in online hotel bookings.
We got our deposit returned eventually, only after several anxious weeks of enquiries via email and telephone calls from half way across the world.

If customer service starts at the point of reservation, I’m afraid Brocks Guest House FAILED MISERABLY.

“Great weekend, fantastic stay in Brocks”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 December 2011

Brocks Guest House was a fantastic place to stay. It has a great central location, but in a quiet street, very pretty on the outside, giving a great first impression. They had plenty of information on sightseeing and things to do in Bath, great for first time visitors. They also went completely out of there way to help with the parking situation (which was a nightmare in mid December) The room was extremely clean and had everything you need, the breakfast was also good. I also thought it was well worth the price paid. I would recommend Brocks to anyone and will definitely visit again, thank you Brocks, for giving us such a great weekend!!!
