Leighton House - Boutique Guesthouse

We had a wonderful stay in Bath at Leighton House. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway. Our room was beautiful and spacious. Since we hadn’t been to Bath before, we didn’t realize that it was hillier than we anticipated and that the guesthouse is up a decent hill from the city. However, the walk was very doable, and on days when we didn’t feel like doing the walk, the bus stop was just up the hill and very convenient and easy to use. Overall, I will be dreaming of this places for years. Would love to come back.

This guest house is very clean and is in a quite good location. The walk into the city is about 10-15 mins which is all down hill, the walk back is a bit of a trek going back up hill but not to bad if your fairly fit. The breakfast is good, certainly above average.|The room is nice but a bit basic, no fridge which would be nice. The bathroom is modern however the plug in our basin didn’t hold water which was a bit disappointing. Our room was overlooked and the windows didn’t have nets so we had to keep the curtains closed while getting dressed, it’s a small thing but would be nice if you could let in a bit of natural light. |The biggest problem we had was with the noise heard from other rooms, there doesn’t seem to be much sound insulation. We could clearly hear snoring from another room. We could hear conversations, movements and when the room above had a shower, it sounded like a rain storm on a roof above. Unfortunately this really affected our sleep as the room above were early risers, they were up chatting and showering at 5am. Maybe we were unlucky but it meant we didn’t have a great stay due to our sleep being interrupted.

This is a really lovely guesthouse, spick and span throughout, tastefully decorated and well staffed by pleasant obliging young folk. Our room was large (space the new luxury) the bathroom equally so, with a a walk-in shower and huge bath. Air conditioning was a bonus during a very hot spell. Breakfast was excellent, cooked items fresh and nicely done, and there was a wide selection of juices, croissants etc. Quibbles? I'm not sure there are actually enough parking spaces for the number of guests, but we left our car parked and travelled by bus or Uber to town, a matter of minutes away. If you decide to walk, be aware that the Leighton House is most of the way up a pretty steep hill full of rushing traffic. Also I'm not sure there are any nice eating places within walking distance - the (fairly) nearby pub looked rather gloomy and the fare on offer not cheap. But the Leighton House overall is little gem, and it would certainly be on our list next time we visit Bath.

This hotel is in a great location just a 10 min walk from the city centre. ||We received a warm welcome. Nice rooms, comfy bed and nice showers. |Good selection at breakfast, although they couldn’t offer any sweeteners for tea/coffee which I thought was unusual. ||Could do with a fridge in the room to keep drinks in if staying for a couple of days. Hotel was very dark and the rooms could do with more lighting. They mentioned snacks available in the bar area although I never saw any. We enjoyed our stay but this is not a 5 star hotel. For the price I would have expected more.

We have just enjoyed a fantastic stay at the Leighton House Hotel. The room was brilliant (15), the staff very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was excellent both days. The walk into the city centre was easy and only 10-15 minutes. Coming back is definitely a taxi ride. But we would thoroughly recommend staying in this beautiful and well appointed hotel

Beautiful guest house, modern stylish room and en-suite. Spotlessly clean and friendly welcoming staff. Great location with an easy walk into the City Centre. Plenty of parking spaces and the breakfast was fantastic. Would highly recommend staying here if visiting Bath.

Beautiful hotel , lovely decor , clean & well positioned in Bath . We had a spacious room on the front of the hotel . Great views over Bath . |Breakfast was of high quality . |Amazing little place . We will definitely book again . Thank you .

A lovely hotel & stay. We stayed in room 4 on the ground floor next to the breakfast room. We had an issue with constantly hearing the doors into the kitchen & breakfast room close early in the morning but my husband mentioned it to staff & they quickly addressed the issue & rectified the problem.|Lovely breakfast each morning & the staff were very polite & helpful.|Our room was spacious & comfortable. The en-suite was a good size too & clean. Bed was comfortable & lovely pillows.|The communal areas are very nicely done & the breakfast room is light & airy.|The hotel is a short walk to the centre of Bath, great going as its downhill but a bit of a steep incline on the way back - so if you have mobility problems then might not be the hotel for you or get a taxi back….|I think the room facilities could be improved by having a small fridge in the room. |We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel & our time in Bath.|Thank you!
