In Great Pulteney Street, in the heart of historic Bath, the Carfax Hotel consists of three beautifully preserved Georgian town houses and offers free parking, lifts and charming en suite rooms.
Centrally located, the Carfax Hotel is an ideal base from which to work or explore one of Europe's oldest and finest cities. The celebrated architect Thomas Baldwin created Great Pulteney Street in 1789, using the famous honey-coloured Bath Stone. Today, the hotel still retains many beautiful original Georgian features, with large rooms with high ceilings and large sliding sash windows.
There are 31 uniquely furnished and individually heated rooms, all of which are en suite with either a bath or shower, or more often both. A continental buffet breakfast and a full traditional cooked English breakfast is included in the price. There is also a computer for public use in the hotel’s lounge, which is free of charge.
Parking is available on a limited, first-come, first-served basis. There is a private car park at the rear of the hotel, which works on a first-come, first-served basis. There are 11 parking places and parking is free to all guests. The hotel also has a number of permits for resident-zone on-street parking in bays around the hotel. Alternatively, should you want to guarantee parking, the hotel has two lock-up garages for hire at an additional cost per night.
The Carfax Hotel currently holds a Mobility Level 2 certificate from VisitBritain. This means that the hotel is defined as “typically suitable for a person with restricted walking ability and for those that may need to use a wheelchair some of the time and can negotiate a maximum of three steps.” One of the ground-floor rooms is suitable for wheelchair use on this basis and is fitted with bathroom supports and a walk-in shower.
The hotel does offer luggage storage and guests are welcome to check in from 08:00 on the day of arrival and leave luggage with reception. However, bedrooms may not be available until after room servicing has concluded around 15:00.
