Hampton By Hilton Bath City

Set right in the heart of Bath, this place makes a brilliant base for ticking off the big-hitter sights on foot. You’re a short stroll from the Roman Baths, Bath Abbey and the Thermae Bath Spa, with the pretty Pulteney Bridge and riverside walks also close by. If you fancy a shopping spree, you can wander Bath’s Georgian streets, hop between boutiques, and be “just popping out” for hours.

Inside, things feel fresh, bright and fuss-free. There’s a compact gym if you like to earn your afternoon tea, plus comfy social spaces for planning your next wander or having a quick regroup between museums and mooching. Food-wise, you’re winning before you’ve even left the building thanks to Hampton’s hot breakfast, included and ready to fuel your day.
