We know how it is, when booking your accommodation in Bath you’re looking for two things, somewhere that’s close to the classic landmarks that make the city unique, and an indulgent room to return to at the end of the day. The Royal Hotel in Bath proudly offers both, so it’s time to make that list of sights you want to take in.

There isn’t a period drama fan in the nation that won’t recognise Royal Crescent, and this row of thirty houses in the shape of a half-colosseum is simply stunning. These lavish apartments are home to the rich and famous residents of the city, and the properties draw visitors day after day.

If you’re in the mood for a quaint Austen-style stroll with your partner after visiting Royal Crescent, head on to Pulteney Bridge. Back to the eighteenth century, this bridge is one of just three in the world that are lined with shops.

Wander across the top just so you can say that you have, and take time out for a coffee in one of the shops – after all – how many times do you get to enjoy a drink and a bun on a bridge? This spot feels a world away from the bustle of the city, and the water flowing under the bridge mutes all other noise…bliss.
