The UK’s most expensive hotel’s get made over
Could Bath be the most elegant location in Europe? It’s certainly one of the priciest. A survey earlier this year found that hotel rooms in Bath are the most expensive in the UK, coming in at an impressive £110-a-night average — £3 more than London. But it’s not just Bath where you’ll find expensive digs –- it’s the whole of the UK, where rates went up 17% on last year. So what do you get for your money in Bath? A number of hotels have stepped up to the challenge to justify their hefty price tags. The 31-room Royal Hotel was recently completely refurbished and spruced up, with dinner, bed and breakfast now coming in at a modest £60 a night up to £120 a night for a four-poster room. At the other end of the spectrum is the Macdonald Bath Spa Hotel –- the city’s most famous accommodation. The recent refurbishment has done nothing to dent the prices and a night in this five-star property will set you back at least £134 a night up to £548 a night for the Imperial Suite. While Bath may be pricey, it’s not quite hip yet –- The Sanderson in London had the honor of being the only UK hotel named in the world’s top 10 hip hotels last year.
