Located in the center of one of the world's most beautiful crescents in the World Heritage city of Bath, the Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa's history dates back to 1950 when Number 16 of the Royal Crescent first became a guest house. Behind the Georgian façade of the historic building (designed by the architect John Wood the Younger and built between 1767 and 1774) are gardens, a world-class and gothic-styled spa, fine dining at The Dower House Restaurant and beautifully appointed rooms and suites - ranging from intimate to grande. The hotel also makes for a luxurious destination wedding venue with several historic rooms available for ceremonies and receptions, and a walled garden with private villa which can accommodate up to 10 people.
