Guest Reviews

• Loredana (7/5): Campagna inglese in città! - È completamente immersa nel verde con un panorama difficile da dimenticare piuttosto di quelli che ti rimangono nel cuore. La gentilezza e disponibilità del personale sono stati notevoli C'era una porte non funzionante e così ogni volta tre piani a piedi e quattro porte da aprire non è il massimo. L orario dei pasti è veramente troppo corto . Si fa fatica a rispettarlo nella descrizione si parla di camminare a piedi per il centro e la stazione non è possibile perché la salita per arrivare è buona per un alpinista non per una persona comune. Da mettere in risalto invece che proprio di fronte all entrata dell ostello c'è la fermata dell' autobus. Le foto del giardino non sono reali nella grandezza , il giardino è piccolo!
• Loredana (8/5): -
• Alistair (7/5): Good location, poorly cooked breakfast. - Great location, nice lounge/bar area and grounds Woken up repeatedly by people forgetting to take their room card to the toilet, so needed letting back into room. Breakfast was poor. Bacon was overcooked, other items were luke warm and definitely better to find somewhere in Bath to eat
• stephane (8/5): -
• stephanie (5/5): gewoon ok - de locatie, groene omgeving, heerlijk om 's ochtends een koffie tussen de bomen in de tuin te kunnen nemen. Gezellige ontspanningsruimte ook wel. het vele lawaai 's nachts van deuren die heel luid dichtvielen, de lavabo in de kamer die compleet verstopt zat, het feit dat je niet kan parkeren (ook niet in de buurt, alles zat helemaal vol)
• Kevan (7/5): A great budget basecamp for beautiful Bath! - Stunning building. Great views. Regular bus route, but possible to walk into town in 20 mins. An option to buy a pastry in the morning would be good. And the coffee was weak.
• River (10/5): -
• Unkle Al (7/5): No major complaints. Does what it says on the tin, at an affordable price. - 24 hour reception is helpful for late arrival. Private room @ £40/night is reasonable (it is just a 6-bunk bed dorm to yourself). No toilet or shower in the room - Accessible down the corridor. Prices doubled for one of the nights, but there would be no circumstances under which £80 for a hostel private room is good value.
• Stuart (1/5): - The place was clean and the facilities were good They completely messed up our booking
• Unkle Al (7/5): Pleasant stay in a functional hostel with nice gardens and views - Worked well for me as it is 15 minutes walk from the main Bath Uni campus, albeit up a steep hill. Staff were friendly. Bar area was good for chilling in the evening. Beautiful spots in the garden at wooden tables for breakfast/dinner. One room had a sink and toilet. "Private room" just means a 6-bed dorm to yourself, which is ok, but a little different to expectations. No furniture other than the bunk beds. Some rooms have a toilet, others do not, so the corridor walk to showers/toilet is typically necessary.
• Arden (8/5): - Location is amazing and scenic, and check in and out was very easy. Atmosphere was lovely and felt safe with the variety of guests, including kids and families, that were staying. Booked a private room for four adults: we were given Room 5, and appreciated how spacious it was. We read that towels could be purchased from the reception, but it would have been appreciated if towels were included with the booking. We packed with the intention of doing some hikes around the area, so it wasn't feasible for us to bring our own towels with us.
• geetha (8/5): -
• Musunuri (5/5): -
• Iryna (9/5): Я задоволена і на наступний раз ще раз воспользуюсь цим варіантом! - Дуже сподобалось місце розташування, тихо, природа, птички поють. Дуже приємний персонал і почуваєш себе як в загородному домику. Вкусний повний завтрак! Сходинки скрипять.
• Harsha (10/5): -
• Monica (1/5): Sporco e non comodo per dormire letti piccolissimi - Nulla Sporcizia in bagno c’era puzza di fogna Materassi e cuscini orribili
• Jerome (10/5): Perfect stay - Convenient room in a nice old building. 30 min walk to the town through a lovely country road. Small bathroom, but as expected in this type of location Nothing
• Daniel (8/5): - Fantastische locatie op de heuvel in het groen. Heerlijk rustig en goed met de bus te bereiken
• Jasper (10/5): -
• Anil (6/5): - the staff, room cleanliness and location was fine the shower was really bad in Room 12 where we were staying
• Ingunn (10/5): -
• Ann Mariya (10/5): -
• Kate (10/5): - Absolutely stunning building, facilities & staff.. definitely one of THE nicest YHA's ive stayed in couldnt fault it
• Khrystyna (8/5): -
• Jessica (8/5): A great place for walkers! - This is a beautiful building, perfect for those who want views and walks in Bath. The facilities are good for a hostel, and the single room was fine (one bunk bed and a simple unsuited, but with a lovely view). Plus it is nice to have the communal area with a small bar. No problems as long as one has the right expectations for a pleasant nature-oriented hostel up on the hill!
• Maria (9/5): -
• sebastian (10/5): -
• Michael (9/5): Tolles Erlebnis. - Die Sonnenuntergänge über der Stadt und die grüne Lage. Außerdem die schöne alte Villa. Es war alles in Ordnung.
• Namitha (1/5): -
• sebastian (10/5): -
• Damien (10/5): Super - Localisation adorable. Staff chouette. Tranquilité Pas de parking sur place
• AlinOlt (8/5): -
• Daniel (8/5): -
• Melanie (8/5): -
• Samulski (9/5): -
• Linh (9/5): We will definitely come back. Thank you very much - We liked everything in YHA Bath It was a bit difficult to find YHA when we reached the post code. We think it would be very helpful if you clearly explain how to find YHA (for example: look for the 2 bus stops named...etc...)
• Carla (7/5): -
• Angela (6/5): -
• Jennifer (9/5): - Wonderful that this yha is in Bath
• Smith (10/5): - Clean, great value and comfortable. I booked for the Bath half marathon and the location was perfect and also included a breakfast.
• Patricia (10/5): Excellent and reasonable - Everything Nothing
• Jason (1/5): - I went there I paid for a night online and when I arrived the two people on the desk told me that I wasn't allowed to stay there and I had to leave because I didn't have a permanent address in Bath
• Anushka (8/5): -
• Tamara (9/5): -
• Hayley (10/5): -
• Eleanor (8/5): -
• Minh Khang (9/5): Pretty good! I enjoyed it. - The price was absolutely affordable for students like me! Our room was good, but the bed was quite uncomfortable. We really loved the communal kitchen, it was well-equipped. The bathroom was cramped, and smelled. The shower head was weirdly placed and hard to shower.
• Ana (7/5): -
• Mariana (10/5): super Wahl um Bath zu besuchen - Wunderschönes altes Haus. Man kommt gut zu Fuß ins Zentrum. Es gibt eine Bushaltestelle davor. Das Parken an der Straße war unkompliziert. Alles war sauber. Das Essen hat gut geschmeckt. Es gab nichts zu bemängeln.
• Lucie (9/5): - Très propre et conforme à nos attentes !
• Barbora (5/5): - Zima
• Simon (10/5): Excellent facilities for the money. - Clean with everything you need. The bunk bed was more comfortable than I expected. The window was hard to close.
• Jade (9/5): We came here for our wedding and it was wonderful - Amazing building, beautiful grounds, comfy room, really friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast. Great communal spaces. The underneath of the toilet seat was very dirty, The dinners weren't great (scampi and burgers very disappointing. Soups and curries okay)
• Lorenzo Nicolò (1/5): -
• Joseph (9/5): - Great location and good value for money. Only thing that could be improved is ventilation for the shower. It looked clean but it had a strong musty smell.
• Andrew (8/5): Clean tidy and comfortable. Outstanding value.... - Fantastic value for the £30 paid. Warmly greeted at reception, super clean and a surprisingly comfortable bunk. Hearty breakfast in the morning for a tenner. What wasn't to like?....... Nothing.
• Andrea (9/5): - The lady serving breakfast gave my son ice-cream as a substitute for the chocolate spread which was run out. Also she did her best to satisfy my friend at the breakfast as more food options were run out. A strange smell in the bathroom.
• Emily (8/5): Perfectly fine - The building itself was beautiful. Our room was a bit tired but fine. Clean enough but of course when you have shared bathrooms they won't always be perfect. A fine stay but nothing to rave about
• Helen (9/5): -
• Liliana (9/5): -
• Dov (10/5): - Friendly staff, Very obliging re my disability. Too many electronic locks to get to my room. (Minor issue).
• Firat (9/5): - Location,staff, kitchen, garden, No space Car parking,

• Vega (8/5): - Todo correcto Hacia frio
• Jorgensen (9/5): - The room was really lovely and clean and the toilets were generally in good condition. It was really good value for money for £50 for two nights and the staff were very friendly too. I had a nice breakfast one day too. My car was not starting when I was about to drive home and one of the female staff at Reception was really helpful about it :)
• Sofía (8/5): - La atención en todo momento del personal del hotel. La cocina compartida estaba bien mantenida. El emplazamiento, aunque está lejos, se puede llegar en bus y las vistas son muy bonitas. Relación calidad-precio buenísima y más para la zona.
• Martin (10/5): Muy linda estadía - Las instalaciones La distancia
• HARSHIT (10/5): -
• Nichola Bridgette (7/5): A peaceful stay in an idealistic location - Beautiful location, comfortable clean bed and helpful personable staff. The kitchen facilities was lacking equipment.
• Chris (10/5): Truly amazing value for money and very comfortable and quiet at night! - Beautifully historic, perfect location
• Delphine (9/5): Superbe endroit - La maison est magnifique et le personnel très sympa.
• Katrina (10/5): - Amazing venue, awesome view over Bath. The staff were welcoming and friendly with a lovely YHA international feel . Coffee could be better
• Kourosh Maghsoudi (10/5): - Everything was good
• Reina (10/5): - The scenery on the way to the hostel was absolutely stunning, and the building itself was beautiful as well. The decaf iced latte was delicious! The female staff member kindly asked if I would like to add syrup, so I decided to try it. It was amazing and really revived me! 😊 The café space had a lovely traditional and stylish atmosphere. If I had had more time, I would have loved to try the food as well. Unfortunately, I could only stay for one night due to my schedule, which was a shame. The quality for this price is truly impressive, and I really appreciate it. This was completely due to my own situation, but as I was traveling before returning home after finishing my study abroad, I had quite a lot of luggage with me. If you have large suitcases, getting to the hostel and moving around inside (especially using the stairs) may be a bit challenging, particularly from the tourist area to the hostel and within the building. I truly appreciate the staff who kindly helped me, and I’m sorry if I caused any inconvenience to other guests. Thank you very much to everyone who assisted me. If possible, I would recommend staying with more compact luggage for a more comfortable experience. (Just to clarify, this is NOT a negative point about the facility itself! Everything was wonderful here for me.)
• Tiana (4/5): Fine for the price - The exterior of the house was cute. We enjoyed having a private room for the three of us and that it came with a sink inside. The room was hot and we didn't have a way to comfortable seat three of us in there with only one stool being made available. We utilized the communal kitchen for card games, but there was a group of young kids in the hostel the night we stayed and their music was blasting til 9pm. Not so great when you're travelling internationally and just want to crash in order to be up early the next morning. The room next to ours was a multi-dormitory, and the girls in it were quite loud til midnight until a staff member came up to quiet them.
• Antoniu R. (8/5): -
• Jimmy (8/5): - Best value for money
• Mike ND (3/5): Lovely place, terrbible sleeples night because of other selfish guest - Very friendly staff, Lovely building with great facilities in an excellent part of ton that made for a beautiful walk into town through fields and parks. I had to share a dorm with a man who obviously had a medical problem and snored VERY VERY loudly ALL night long. I got NO SLEEP AT ALL. Whilst it is clearly the the guests fault for not acknowledging his issues and selfishly booking a dorm with 7 other men, I wonder if the facility could have a screening process whereby they rule out any guests with serious sleep disorders such as this.
• Alina (1/5): -
• Charan (10/5): - The friendly staff. The location. The Rooms. Pocket friendly.
• Maud (10/5): Super - Le personnel était super sympa ! Le lieu très beau et confortable! Peut être la wifi
• Malwea (9/5): - Everything - so changed in the 65 or so years since I last stayed in a YHA hostel! Having to park on the road, but completely understood why. Missed no foot mat in the shower room, but again, understand. If/when I stay again, I'll take my own!
• Sarah (7/5): -
• Niloofar (8/5): -
• Camila (9/5): - El personal era increíblemente amable y todo estaba impecable Está un poco alejado del centro
• wenlong (10/5): -
• Inge Hope (9/5): great room, beautiful place, surrounding area, easy to access, it just needs to rethink wheelchair a - the staff were very helpful. we stayed in the accessible room. great facilities really pleased. however the main building and restaurant were not wheelchair friendly, no ramps to access where steps were the only access area. we were allowed to park with our blue badge, a little far from the accessible room. it is a beautiful place and we would stay again. maybe they need to look at accessible areas for wheelchairs. thank you
• CRISTINA (9/5): -
• Martin (8/5): -
• Petr (7/5): - Poloha, asi 30 minut pěší chůze do centra. Ale je to pořádný kopec. Parkování zdarma na cestě k univerzitě. Snídaně byla fajn. Nedají se otevřít okna, čili po dvou dnech poněkud smrad na pokoji. Ručníky za poplatek 2,5 libry. Všechny vnitřní dveře jsou na kód, do pokoje jsme kartu použili 6x. Na pokoji není stoleček.
• Siqi (10/5): - 非常的干净整洁，公共浴室也很干净，房间自带的浴室反而有些小，我们都去公共浴室冲凉。酒店旁边就是非常出名的skyline，因为天气原因没能去，非常遗憾。下次还会再来的！ 早餐的种类有些少，也不是很好吃，但是没时间去外面吃的话可以对付两口。
• Ahmed (7/5): Good for a quick trip with lovely outdoors facilities. - Location near the center, nice outdoor seating, well-equipped kitchen Can be cleaner especially the self-catering kitchen, rooms are a little bit cold and entrance to the hotel from the road is very dark in the evening.
• Vivi (10/5): Fabulous! - Lovely house, easy to get to, easy to park on the road outside. Really friendly staff
• Pote (8/5): - Krista, was extremely polite and humble. She made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived and handled everything with professionalism and warmth. N\A
• Daniel (10/5): -
