Award-winning breakfast at a 1794 Georgian townhouse in Bath

Rooms & Decor

Each of the individually styled rooms at The Kennard reflects the character of the original 1794 Georgian architecture. Rooms are decorated with distinct furnishings and include luxury bathroom amenities from The White Company. Guests also find daily homemade shortbread and a sleep kit with robes and slippers for added comfort.

Dining

The breakfast room, hung with Venetian chandeliers, serves a cold continental buffet with locally sourced meats, cheeses, fresh fruit, and pastries. The Kennard has won the "Best Breakfast in Town" award for its use of high-quality local produce. An in-house honesty bar offers wines, spirits, and soft drinks available for guests throughout the day.

Amenities & Facilities

The guesthouse provides a tranquil garden area where guests can relax with a book from the in-house lending library. A communal lounge with an honesty bar allows for informal socializing or quiet reading. Additional services include daily housekeeping, luggage storage, and express check-in/check-out for convenience.

Location

The Kennard sits on a quiet residential street within a 5-minute walk of Pulteney Bridge and the city centre. Guests can reach the Roman Baths, Bath Abbey, and the Royal Crescent on foot in under 10 minutes. The Thermae Bath Spa and dozens of independent shops and restaurants are also just around the corner.

Guest Services

Reception is staffed daily from 2pm to 5pm, with a phone number provided for assistance outside these hours. The hotel offers a concierge service for restaurant bookings and local recommendations. Laundry service and private check-in/check-out are available upon request.

Highlights

Breakfast: Award-winning cold buffet with local produce

Rooms: Individually styled rooms with White Company amenities

Bar: Honesty bar with wine, spirits & soft drinks

Garden: Tranquil garden with lending library

Location: 5 min from Roman Baths & Bath Abbey

Extras: Homemade shortbread, robes & sleep kits

“This Georgian townhouse truly captures the spirit of Bath, sitting right at the heart of the city's historic charm. Its rooms are thoughtfully appointed, and the addition of homemade shortbread elevates the welcome, while the garden offers a quiet retreat. The continental breakfast, particularly the coffee selection, is a standout element that makes a second visit highly likely.”
