5.8/10

The hotel has stunning grounds and a convenient location just a short walk to the city center. While I enjoyed the comfortable bedding and quality of the spa treatments, my overall experience was marred by a lack of upkeep in the rooms and unfortunate service issues. For the price I paid, I expected much more, especially regarding the facilities and room condition which felt outdated.

The spa facilities were in need of major updates, with several tiles cracked and overall cleanliness lacking. The outdoor pool was a nice feature, but not enough to redeem the shortcomings in other areas.

My recent stay at the Macdonald Spa Hotel in Bath was mixed. While the facilities were generally enjoyable, the service and dining experience left much to be desired. The spa area and outdoor pool were highlights, but the food could have been hotter and more organized. It felt like the hotel was in need of some updates and better management during busy times.

The hotel is beautiful with stunning grounds and lovely room features like a four-poster bed, providing a comfortable stay. While the spa area was enjoyable, I faced some disappointments with cleanliness in the room and service at the bar that detracted from the experience. Overall, it's a nice getaway, but improvements are needed in certain areas to match the luxury expectations.
