Accommodations

Devonshire House is a family-run hotel where owners Chris and Louise provide personalized tips and insights to each guest. Each room has a private bathroom, a desk or eating nook, and a comfortable bed with duvet and pillows that are soft and fluffy. The optional in-room continental breakfast is delivered to the door at an agreed time, and includes fresh fruit, yoghurt, a croissant or roll, a hard-boiled egg and orange juice.

Guests can join walking tours that start from the hotel and use the curated scenic route directions provided by the owners. The hotel offers bicycle rental, bike tours, mini golf, pub crawls, and tour or class about local culture. A guest living room has an oversized sofa, board games and a communal area for families.

“A twenty-minute walk from the city center, this family-run house distinguishes itself with a personal touch that elevates a stay here. I particularly appreciated the thoughtful extras: pet amenities in select rooms and the curated walking guides-small details that make a difference. The optional in-room continental breakfast is a steal, too, adding to the appeal of this cozy, convenient base for exploring Bath.”
