“A charming Georgian townhouse in the heart of Bath, minutes from the sights. The hotel stays true to its history with ornate decor and a pretty Jane Austen inspired garden. A splendid breakfast is served in the chandelier decked dining room. Perfection, at a very reasonable price.”

Hotel Review

The best sort of small hotel where the owners have committed everything to making it work well. The Kennard radiates their cheerfulness and energy. Imaginative details include a tiny formal garden newly planted with scholarly care to 18th century authenticity, excellent pictures on the walls, free newspapers in the hall, and breakfast ingredients bought from local farmers. Deservedly popular and recommended.
