Amicable and professional service stands out at Dorian. Staff makes you feel at home. Full breakfast exceeded our expectations in quantities, quality and ambiance (nice area overlooking the garden). Quite are at only a 15min stroll to downtown.
Pretty much all uphill from the City Centre, then the driveway is steep, then our room was on the top floor up two flights of stairs, a real thigh burner but we loved it. A warm welcome, a comfortable bed, a lovely breakfast. Only downside was the coffee. We will be back (and bring our own coffee pods).
From the warm welcome we received from Libby when we arrived, to the wonderful breakfast, our stay at Dorian House was truly first class. Everything was spotlessly clean, and our room was comfortable and very well equipped. We didn’t catch the name of the host at breakfast, but she did a superb job. The food and service were wonderful. We would highly recommend this property.

Had a lovely stay, nice quiet area within walking distance of Bath. The breakfast service was very good and the food was excellent.
All was great apart from a little issue with the bed slats that we sorted as we were able, others may not have been able to. Staff were lovely, breakfast excellent, really good products and cooked well. Would stay here again. Bonus points for an area of flat parking for our bikes.
Beautifully period property with charming character, friendly and helpful staff. Modern amenities in rooms, great bathroom and shower. Comfortable bed, quiet at night as it is situated on a hill above the city. Great views! The breakfast is delicious, made to order - big thanks to the catering staff! A short walk about 10 mins downhill takes you into the heart of this beautiful city, a slower slightly uphill walk back. Recommend parking in the private off road bays where it is flatter. A wonderful stay and will definitely be booking again. Thank you
We had a fantastic stay at The Dorian! The room was great and the breakfast was fantastic. They even supplied epsom salts for my wife's bath in the lovely soaker tub in our room. The neighbourhood was very nice and it was an easy walk into the city. Finally, the electric car charging setup was easy to use and very inexpensive. Hats off to Rosalind and the rest of the hotel staff!
Very nice little b and b with parking ~15-20 mins walk from the centre of Bath.
Room was a good size and well appointed. Much nicer than a bland chain hotel. Breakfast was tasty and good array of options.
Reception isn’t 24 hours so as requested in documentation make sure you let them know if you’ll arrive after the time they say. Parking is tight but there’s spaces available for each room and competent drivers shouldn’t have any issues
Staff are excellent, welcoming and attentive.
Room was nice, but probably a few things in need of minor repair.
Personally would put in 4 star category.
Really nice stay at this hotel. The breakfast was very tasty with a good variety. The staff were super pleasant and helpful. A short 10-15 minute walk to town or convenient bus stop near the hotel. Clean and spacious accommodations!
We had a lovely stay and it fit the bill for us for the most part. The breakfast was lovely, lots of options and generous portions.
It’s in a lovely area of Bath around a 15 minute walk from the centre surrounded by lots of equally beautiful properties.
Our room was smaller than expected and could get quite warm even with the windows open. The bed wasn’t the most comfortable but not awful. We had a slightly unfortunate experience in that we were in Bath for a wedding and I was quite unwell so needed a quiet space to rest and be able to nap during the day. The room could get quite noisy in the morning due to things outside of the staff’s control (e.g., a tree being pruned at 8am on a Saturday morning on the neighbouring property and a dog that whined for hours at a time in the morning on a neighbouring property). Between those and not being able to close the windows as it was so warm and there was no air con, it made for a somewhat uncomfortable experience at times.
That being said, if you are in Bath to sight see and will be out and about all day long then this B&B is absolutely perfect and you will have a lovely stay and get to see a little more of Bath when you’re walking to and from the centre!
We booked after doing loads of comparing and previous reviews showing outstanding. I would add the people are brilliant but the room left us underwhelmed
We know it was a cosy room but the bed was really uncomfortable and the room was absolutely boiling - the fan/ heater didn’t provide any respite plegnand
It is a small hotel run by a family. Nice people trying to help all the time. My room was very nice, great bed, all very clean and renovated. They kindly reserved a parking space for me. They have electric car charger that was very easy to use. The only thing- it was further away from the city centre that I would like it to be. I had to take Uber.
