Beautifully appointed and impeccably clean, the Kennard delighted us from beginning to end. It’s located on a quiet residential street, but conveniently just a short walk from the central attractions of Bath. The staff were friendly, warm and accommodating; and the breakfast buffet was delicious. Our stay was extremely pleasant and comfortable, and we are looking forward to our next opportunity to return.

A Lovely place to stay in Bath
A charming hotel with an amazing breakfast service. We also liked that it was a bit away from the city (only a 5 minute walk) so it was quieter.

Staff very friendly and accommodating. We dropped our bags off at noon and collected our key, we then had all afternoon and evening to enjoy Bath before returning to find our bags in our room.
They were also happy for us to leave our bags after check out if we needed.

Overnight stay to visit The Forum. Perfect location - about five minutes walk to most restaurants and another five minutes to the theatre.
Very friendly and attentive staff, an atmosphere conducive of staying in a cosy home rather than a big hotel.
The room was very comfortable with all the necessary facilities.
