Mercure Francis Bath

close th the shops

The location is perfect for shopping. The public rooms - bar, lounge, dining room are very well designed and set out. The bed was very comfortable. the staff were friendly, when you could find them.

The reception staff were very friendly and helpful but it seemed that they were a bit understaffed and it was sometimes difficult to find anyone. Also, when my friends and I came back to the hotel at the end of the evening we were unable to find the barman to order a second round of drinks although the bar was still quite busy. The bedroom looked as it was due for a refurbishment and the loo was stained and could have done with a more thorough clean.

The hotel's location was excellent a short walk from the centre of Bath. The staff were excellent and the breakfast menu varied and good. It was lovely to stay in a hotel that had real atmosphere .

It's situation, central to Bath

The staff were ok but not particularly friendly or helpful. Dinner was poor and we, and another table, were offered 3 x 4 oz steaks when they had run out of sirloin steaks! The menu choice was poor and very limited.

the decor of the new rooms and the bath robes to wear!!

breakfast waitors were a bit dippy with not much common sense

Local to the sites of Bath. Very good breakfast. Friendly staff.

Heating did not work so we needed an electric heater to be added to the room. The windows did not close properly and the net curtains were dirty.

Old fashioned hotel, with very noisy floorboards! Good breakfast and excellent location in the city.

We stayed on 1st floor. I think the 49ers were checking out of the room above on our first morning - poor sound insulation due to age of hotel building.

The room was lovely and had everything we needed. The Breakfast was excellant with a good choice of food.

The location was great. I enjoyed the restaurant, it has added light meals on the menu since my last visit which suited me better.

The television ariel socket was faulty which made the reception bad.

In very quiet room as requested, no noise from hotel or city. Great location, very comfortable, nice dining room with great selection for breakfast.

Reception and serving staff were extremely friendly and helpful, some of the best I have ever encountered. The location was perfect for seeing all that Bath has to offer.

The hotel was extremely tired, our room was not becoming of a hotel of such stature as opposed to the price that we paid.

This hotel is within a short walking distance from the centre of Bath. Make sure you ask for a refurbished room when booking. The hotel is generally comfortable with spacious dining and public areas. Our allocated room was too hot and we were offered a cooler room with a window that could be opened.

Guests are charged an additional £12 per night to park their car in the hotel car park.

Its central location with a car park ,the rooms ,the staff and it was surprisingly quiet for such a central site.

The cost of breakfast was ridiculous especially as there were many other places a short walk away which offered good breakfasts at a sensible price.
