“The Black Fox strikes me as a proper Bath experience, where a convivial pub meets comfortable, if quirky, lodging. I appreciate its embrace of local suppliers, both in the well-stocked bar and at breakfast. Its location puts you steps away from the Roman Baths, which makes it an ideal base for exploring the city's historical heart, especially if you enjoy traveling with your dog.”

Solid Stay in City Center
nice selection beer fan easy check-in comfy bed
The breakfast included a nice selection. I found local ales for beer fans like myself. The hotel was close to the train station. Check in was easy at the distillery downstairs. I didn't hear noise at night. The hotel is near a busy street, I was surprised. The bed was comfy. It was very clean.
The room was very small. I could barely move.
