We had a great stay here. Parked right outside with a permit from the hotel. 8 minute walk to Roman Baths and Abbey. Small room but comfortable and cosy. Really polite and helpful staff. Cooked breakfast included and very nice. Good value for money.

I stayed here with a group of friends. We found the staff helpful and courteous and the rooms pleasant. The room was clean and the bathroom adequate. The hotel is excellently situated near the town centre but is really quiet. Our room was at the back and had a nice view and no passing traffic. The breakfast was very good and we felt the whole package represented good value. If you are looking for luxuary this is probably not for you but this is an excellent no frills hotel.

All the rooms here are fine but if using the included Internet is important to you be sure to book a room on a lower floor otherwise the signal will be aggravatingly weak. Rates do vary quite a bit according to the season. An exceptional plus point here is the first class breakfast.

We had pre-booked the Carfax so were disappointed when our room turned out to be extremely compact with a sloping roof and small window that opened onto a concrete parapet spanning the upper facade of the building that blocked both the view and fresh air. We were fortunate to arrive early in the afternoon and secure a car space in the tiny parking lot - other guests were relegated to catching whatever space they could find in the surrounding streets, with a parking permit to exclude them from parking fees.
Breakfasts were excellent, with hot meals cooked to order, in a bright and pleasant dining room. It was a disappointment that the hotel didn't offer the restaurant for other meals. However, it was an easy walk to the town centre and we found an excellent bar and restaurant close to the Cathedral.
Of course, theCarfax Hotel's proximity to all the charming places in Bath is a big plus that helped mitigate its shortcomings.
