Loved by The Black Fox guests
"Superb room in a lovely pub, with the added benefit of a lovely breakfast (with lots of options) and great pub food & beer!"
"The bathroom was a delight to use, especially the shower."
"The location is central, making it easy to walk to the river, royal crescent, Thermae Bath Spa, and plenty of restaurants and pubs."
Featuring a luggage room and a restaurant, the 3-star smoke-free The Black Fox Bath hotel lies merely 550 metres from The Jane Austen Centre Museum. The kitchen Sally Lunn's Museum is located right around the corner from this Bath inn, boasting a lounge bar and city views.
Location
The hotel is situated in the centre of Bath only 6 minutes' walk from the 19th century Bath Guildhall Indoor Market. Stonehenge is in proximity to the Black Fox Bath, and Bristol airport is 30 km away.
Guests will also appreciate the vicinity to Remembrance Gardens, located 0.9 km away. There is the semicircular Royal Crescent Terrace a mere 14 minutes' walk away, while Bath bus station is nearly 5 minutes on foot from the accommodation.
The Black Fox hotel provides a place to stay fairly close to the Bath Spa train station.
Rooms
This Bath hotel features 9 rooms with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a radio, as well as tea and coffee making facilities. There are rooms with carpeted floor. Nice touches to enhance your stay include a separate toilet and a shower, along with a hairdryer and free toiletries.
Eat & Drink
The à la carte restaurant is the ideal place to enjoy British meal. British cuisine is offered at Sweet Little Things, situated 450 m from the Black Fox.
“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 selectionbeer faneasy check-incomfy 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.
