Great stay but bathroom issues

We have stayed at Dorian House before so recommended it to our friends as a group booking (8 of us) to celebrate our 50th birthdays. We went for an executive room (6) Tallis. The room was beautiful with a lovely big bed and great view out of the quirky windows overlooking Bath. The welcome and the breakfast were both excellent. The issue we had was with the bathroom. It is shower only. There is a large sign up saying not to adjust the pressure of the shower due to it being an old house and the pipework not being able to cope. What I didn't expect was that there would be such little power in the shower - the water dribbled out. I had no choice but to increase it to actually shower on the 1st night. This meant that the water overflowed the shower tray & we ended up mopping the floor. The drain away is very small & the bathroom easily floods with literally no lip on the bottom of the shower to contain the water. This was mentioned at breakfast the next day. They changed the shower head but that wasn't the issue it's the design of the bathroom. This meant that I could not actually wash my hair all weekend as the water pressure was either insufficient or flooded the bathroom. This bathrooms needs a bath, with a shower overhead to avoid this happening. It's a shame as it would put me off booking this room again.

Good value for money

Good quiet location. Five minute walk downhill to the town. Good value for money with free parking available. Good range of breakfast options and very tasty. Friendly staff. Recommend the Tallis room with views over the city as very spacious.

Lovely hotel. Location was good but the walk back from the city centre was up a fairly steep hill. This meant that we got Ubers for our return.

Property is well located to walk into Bath. Service at the accommodation was good, with breakfast service and quality excellent. Be aware that parking to the side of the property is quite steep. Would recommend this for a stay in Bath.

Dorian House provides free parking and breakfast for guests and the property is within walking distance of the city centre. It's also on the route of No 8 bus. Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was first class. Accommodation was comfortable. Definitely recommend. Thank you to the staff for a lovely, 2 night stay on our first visit to Bath.

Loved the house and its beautiful original features. Our room was in the basement but had lots of light and our own door to use so felt like an apartment. Large room with tasteful decor and modern bathroom. Huge bed which was extremely comfortable so slept well for 3 nights we stayed .Hospitality tray well stocked .Breakfast was superb- locally sourced top quality ingredients, good choice, and staff helpful and friendly- nothing was too much trouble. Only 15 minutes walk into centre of town . Would definitely recommend.
