“Great choice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

200+ five-star reviews is no accident. The Hollies was a great place for our first stay in Bath. Nice room, great breakfast, lovely hosts, and beautiful grounds make this a great choice for Bath. The walk into Bath is an easy 15-20min. downhill walk. The walk up the hill isn't bad, though if you have luggage I'd take a taxi (<$10).

The twice-daily free walking tours of Bath are great. One can see the major sights in Bath in a day, but I wish we had had an extra day or two (or more) to relax and explore the town and region more.

Stayed September 2011, travelled as a couple

“Simply wonderful!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

This is the second time we have stayed at The Hollies, and we wouldn't choose to stay anywhere else. The entire house is spotless, from snowy bedlinen and towels through the gleaming bathroom to shining silver and sparkling crystal on the breakfast table. In fact, I'd give it 10 stars for cleanliness if I could. David and Joe are charming hosts, the house and its contents are delightful, and Joe's homemade jams are to die for! It's a short bus ride or a half-hour stroll down the hill into town, and, if you can't fact the walk back up, we paid £5 for a taxi last Sunday night. Staying at The Hollies would certainly enhance anyone's visit to this lovely city.

“Last minute trip”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012

We booked this hotel very last minute due to a family emergency. We were made to feel most welcome and ha a lovely ensuite room. The view from the room and the dining room were stunning. We were sorry to just one night. Thanks for you help.

Room Tip: All the rooms we saw were of equal quality

“A lovely long weekend in Bath”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

We stayed for 3 nights,my wife and i in the Indian Room and my brother and his wife in the Chinese Room.The food was excellent (my brother is a vegetarian) and David and Joe were wonderful hosts, though Amber the cat was the one in charge! You could spend a day or so in the library or move into the dolls house (it's that big!),character everywhere.You are made to feel part of the family,we loved it and will be back sometime in the new year. We walked into Bath each morning,about 20 mins,a lovely city with so much to see and do,including 219 stalls in the Christmas Market in mid December! All in all we had a great time. Terry & Pam Bond

“Excellent B&B in Bath”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 December 2011

I've stayed in a few places in Bath before now, and this one was really excellent. David and Joe were charming hosts, the rooms impeccable and the cat gorgeous! They did a lovely vegetarian breakfast for my partner's mother, and I had one of the best scrambled eggs I've eaten in a long while. As other guests have commented, the library is a delight.
It's an easy bus-ride into town and the taxis back late at night aren't too expensive (around £7). I would definitely recommend this place.
