Things to do in Bath

There’s so much to do when staying at a hotel in Bath. This English city's immense beauty and history resulted in it being designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. It has a long and interesting past, but it is perhaps most famous for its Roman occupation which informs the character of the city.

The Pump Room and Roman Baths- Originally constructed in 70 AD as a grand bathing and socialising venue, the magnificent Aquae Sulis is where the city derives its name. Rich in natural minerals, you can take a sip of the water in the Pump Room – believed to have healing properties.
Thermae Bath Spa – Bathe in the spa waters - just as the Romans and Celts did - in a warm open-air rooftop pool with an awe-inspiring view.
Royal Crescent – Stroll along the iconic Georgian crescent and take in the museum at No.1.
Bath Abbey – Looming above the city, this majestic medieval church was completed in 1616. Climb the 212 steps to the top for a truly spectacular view.
