OYO Bailbrook Lodge

Ok if you're on a...

Liked: Clean room.Nice view from window.
Disliked: Very dated.No lift to get to room.No shower.Rather tatty in places.

Oyo oh yes

Liked: The staff are super friendly and very helpful. The (female) receptionist on duty during my stay was particularly good, going the extra mile for me (keeping my perishables in the kitchens refrigerator etc).The house itself is a gracious Georgian lodge for the main mansion. It was converted some time ago. My room was literally a cube shape, very high ceilings, with a small shower /WC off. There were a few small imperfections ( maybe too much furniture cluttering the bedroom space? ) but this is essentially nitpicking . It was great.The house exhibits a sort of Charming faded glory from days gone by, however, it is great value for money, and a chance to dine in the crescent window of the dining room, or just relax in the similarly featured residents lounge .if you want a swanky hotel, try somewhere else. If you want traditional, tranquil space, reserve a room at Oyo Bailbrook Lodge.A unique place, not 'corporate" at all, which was one of its best and attractive features.The location is also excellent, for Bath centre, the river and canal network and walking opportunities all around.I'd say to the management there :- "Never change" Oyo Bailbrook Lodge, you have a gem of a place there. Quirky, authentic, memorable. Really nice.
Disliked: I initially found the digital check in somewhat anxiety inducing, especially as time was lost quite close to their "nighttime" protocol... But this was efficiently resolved by Veepan (sp) ,plus a small mix up with the room. But quickly sorted and all was well

Dated hotel

Liked: Bed was comfortable. View from big window amazing.
Disliked: Wasn't clean. Very run down. We were in the superior room. Mold in shower.lights hanging off. Dirt and dust everywhere. Didn't think it was value for money. Also confusion when we arrived as no one there before check in as we wanted to leave bags and shop before?

Superb

Great value for money

Liked: Clean. Tidy and comfortable. Nice breakfast and friendly staff

Nice room and surroundings in...

Liked: Loved my room as I was complimentary upgraded to the Jane Austen suite which really surprised me. Very spacious with a 4 poster bed and great views of the gardens. Felt so comfortable and the staff was fantastic
Disliked: There needed to be more water pressure in the shower. Although it is a small thing as I loved the room regardless

Very good

Liked: Location was good, carparking was included and there was plenty of space. It is located handy to town and main roads. Staff were helpful and gave us some tips of where to go and best city carpark to use. Loved the grand four poster bed in main room plus the chaise lounge, despite it having a tear in fabric....I lived the coffee plunger and ground coffee...a nice indulgence
Disliked: Ceiling height above shower was too low for a 6ft 2in person to stand completely upright so made it awkward. Wifi code was challenging but staff assisted when asked for help.

Very good
