Pros: very good hostel, lovely building and excellent breakfast. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Cons: Heating was working however air in the central heating made it very noisy and so disrupted our sleep.
7,0 Good
Pros: The property is beautiful and clean.
Cons: The room was good but FREEZING. We asked three times for someone to fix the problem and then they gave us a heater. The stuff is nice but not all of them, we thought some of the people who work there were really rude. The access is difficult and you cannot park there.

9,2 Excellent
Pros: We visited the place mainly to get a feel for the campus and to drop off our son for his pre season training at the University of Bath. Staff were very friendly and happy to have a chat or give recommendations.
Cons: Nothing really. Perhaps finding out the location of the reception where we had to check in. It was mentioned on the confirmation but we still had trouble to find it. The name of the actual building would have been more helpful.
7,9 Good
Pros: Comfortable room with good facilities. Mood lighting, tv, USB sockets. Secure environment.
Cons: I was hoping to be able to self cater but although kitchens are available there are no cooking utensils, equipment or cutlery. On site facilities were sparse for choice of menu and closed at 9:30pm. There was little option but to travel back into the city to eat in the evening.

Pros: Clean and comfortable Great location for a Uni Open day and a trip into Bath
Cons: Quite cozy(small) Perfect for one night stay
2,5 Mediocre
Pros: Nothing. The room was actually a single room and was very basic.
Cons: Everything. The double bed was actually a single bed - 1.20 cm - and it was very dirty under the bed. The bathroom was also old and the toilet was dirty. The reception was on a campus of the university and very difficult to find the real reception. You get electric entrance opuses, but we stayed two days and after one day the entrance card did not work. So we could not enter the room. The reception closed at 20.00 pm. We had a problem. The breakfast was also very basic. It was like a bad youthhostel. We paid much too much. So even the manager told us that this room was not comfortable and she promised to return a part of the money. I'm still waiting....

3,3 Mediocre
Pros: The Room - without any facilities is quiet and safe - and the Bus Link (route 18 + U18) from outside the central bus station is well serviced.
Cons: I did Not really enjoy my stay at the University - On arrival - I could not find the Check In Reception area in the dark - so had to walk a lot within the Campus to find it - I stayed in Marlborough Court, there was No Tea / Coffee facilities available in room or anywhere within the accommodation block - and No TV in the room - nor Radio either !! For Breakfast - it is available in the Sports Village Gym building - but as I experienced, one morning the Chef was not available - and on morning 2, a large queue had formed that would have kept me waiting for 40 minutes standing just to get a cuppa or something to eat. I ate in central Bath at the Royal Hotel outside the railway station - and would recommend that Hotel to stay and eat in instead. Not Forgetting - I stayed at a University Campus and Not a Hotel.
With a stay at University of Bath Guest Accommodation in Bath, you'll be a 3-minute drive from University of Bath and 8 minutes from Royal Crescent. Featured amenities include a 24-hour front desk, multilingual staff, and luggage storage. Free self parking is available onsite.

Cons: Saturday night was noisy with drum and bass resounding below until 2.00 am. Three inconsiderate guests came into the dormitory at 03.30 and put on the lights, kept knocking on the door because they had forgotten their key, bashed into beds and talked for 15 minutes Toilet and shower facilities are rather limited

Top tips for finding the perfect Bath hostel
- Staying in a hostel in Bath comes with a long list of advantages over choosing other accommodation options like hotels and vacation rentals. One of the most significant benefits of booking a hostel in the area is the savings, as Bath hostels are significantly less expensive than area hotels. Other advantages of staying in a hostel include the shared kitchens and self-service laundry facilities that are perfect for the more independent travelers.
- When choosing your hostel in Bath, you’ll have a handful of different neighborhoods to choose from, including the downtown area, the nature-adjacent area of Bathwick, and the area north of downtown Bath near the Jane Austen Centre. While the areas in and around downtown offer the convenience of being near public transportation hubs and shops, hostels near Bathwick offer easier access to large parks and the Bathampton Downs.
- If you’re traveling to Bath on your own and you’re looking to meet up with other travelers, choosing the right hostel is essential. Besides offering affordable accommodations, spacious common rooms, and a shared lounge, St. Christopher’s Inn Bath gives travelers access to an on-site bar and restaurant. Hostel guests have the advantage of discounts at this bar and restaurant, and you’ll have plenty of opportunities to mingle with travelers and locals if you participate in one of its themed nights or live music events.
- If you’re looking for a hostel in Bath to accommodate your group, you have a few options to choose from.
