“Homewood Hotel & Spa, a Small Luxury Hotels Of The World property, looks inviting in Freshford, near Bath, and draws guests with its promise of a serene countryside escape. While the location allows for convenient exploration of both Bath and the surrounding Avon Valley, some reports suggest that the execution of service and maintenance occasionally falls short of its luxury billing. My impression is of a destination with considerable potential, though one where attention to detail could elevate the experience further.”

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The spa facilities were a highlight, providing a lovely way to unwind, but some aspects of the service could use improvement. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, yet a few amenities were lacking to justify the price tag. Dining options were hit or miss, particularly at breakfast, which didn't quite meet expectations given the overall ambiance. Nonetheless, I appreciated the effort that went into the facilities, even if they weren't flawless.

I recently celebrated my 30th birthday at Homewood Park, and it was an unforgettable experience! The hotel is set in stunning countryside with meticulously maintained grounds. The staff were genuinely welcoming and attentive, making sure everything went smoothly throughout the day. The food was truly exceptional, but the only downside was that I didn't have enough time to explore the spa facilities. Overall, a wonderful getaway for anyone looking for a blend of luxury and relaxation.

Overall, the stay was quite disappointing given the expectations set by the hotel's reputation and pricing. While the private rooms with hot tubs were a nice touch, the service, dining options, and ongoing renovations significantly detracted from the experience. It felt more like a work-in-progress rather than a completed stay, leaving us feeling we had overpaid for the experience.

Rooms

The room we stayed in was nice but showed signs of wear and tear, such as chipped paint and worn furniture. For the price we paid, I expected much better condition.

The hotel is situated in a lovely area, but be aware that it's not as close to Bath as advertised-it's about a 15-minute drive rather than 3.1 miles.
Dining
5.0
Dining was quite underwhelming for a hotel of this standard; the food was mediocre and not reflective of the high prices. The breakfast offerings were particularly disappointing.
Facilities

Facilities were adequate but limited. The ongoing renovations affected the overall appeal, making it feel less like a spa retreat and more like a construction site.
