Historic yet modern, the Abbey Hotel occupies a Georgian building that has been a hotel since 1890. It spent a period as military offices during World War II, before being renovated into the hotel it is today. Well located on one of Bath’s main streets, the property is filled with bright and often innovative artworks.
From the 3D picture of racing cyclists in the restaurant to the bold architectural prints in the corridors, the hotel’s art selection makes simply wandering through the property a pleasure. The hotel’s ground-floor restaurant, Allium, is one of the most popular in Bath.
OUR OPINION:
A bright and lively hotel, ideally located in the heart of Bath, this is one of our firm choices.
