Subtly embedded into the historic spa town that is Bath, Macdonald Bath Spa Hotel is a five-star destination in an elegant Regency mansion, and today boasts 129 rooms and suites, many of which look out onto the property’s landscaped gardens.
Amongst the columns of the former ballroom, the Vellore restaurant is the hotel’s fine dining experience, which has been awarded two AA Rosettes as testimony of its culinary success. For something a little lighter there is also The Alfresco & Terrace; the Drawing Room serves teas and coffees throughout the day; and the Colonnade and Rotunda Bars are open for drinks and cocktails as well.
The Bath Spa are currently undergoing essential maintenance on their relaxation room. Unfortunately it is currently therefore not in use. We do not have an exact time scale of when works will be completed, but will keep you up to date regarding this.
