We stayed for one night - before reading reviews! - BIG mistake!! The web site refers to 'recently refurbished' rooms, they haven't seen a lick of paint for years. The bed sheets, carpets and towels were theadbare and stained. The shower head in the ensuite could have been sold to terrorists to make biological weapons - it may never have... More

The reviews of this B&B being dirty and dusty are all true. Unfortunately it gets worse. Having returned from Bath this weekend, my sister-in-law is totally covered in bites!! She woke up on Saturday morning having been chewed by bed bugs !! Needless to say she didn't pay for the pleasure. Beware.

Whilst planning a short trip to Bath my partner and I were strugglling to find any accomodation which was cheap and within easy reach of the city centre. We found Dorset Villa by chance on line and were delighted with the bargain price of £55 per night and the fact it was only a short walk to the centre! We... More

We recently stayed at the dorset villa as it was cheap and there wasn't much else available, having read the previous reviews we were slightly dubious but hoped for the best. When we first arrived all seemed fine the bedroom was average and clean enough, everything was in working order. However we woke up and found a dead bug in... More

I was on a 12 day whirlwind tour of the uk with family and stayed in many many B&Bs that were not the greatest~ but this one is charming. Yes, its lived in, yes, there may be some dust, and a cobweb here or there, but it was comfortable and the couple running it made me feel like part of... More

This hotel does not present very well in person. I depended on the pics on-line when booking. When we got to the hotel, no-one was there to meet us. The door was open, all of the keys for the guest rooms were in the doors and we were able to walk through the entire place without encountering anyone. it was... More

Great location, owner was very friendly, cute little picnic table off back door. Hair in bottom of shower, plates at breakfast were a little filmy and placemats were dirty at breakfast table. Good value for price, would recommend.

My mum and I stayed here for one night when we visited family in Bath. We chose this place because it was a more reasonable than others in Bath and it seemed close to the centre. It was quite easy to find but the parking was not. It was a little side road that lead round the back on the... More

I would give this hotel 3/5. The owners were lovely and truly looked after us like we were family staying at their home. Lovely breakfast and clean room was waiting for us. We visited the Thermae Bath Spa which took 10 mins walk from Dorset Villa. Within 5 mins walk you are in the centre of Bath shopping centre and... More

I booked this hotel because of the appealing price. I should have known better. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. This hotel was filthy. When we walked in, we immediately took notice of how dirty the carpet was and how dusty the furniture was. The owner took us to our room (family room at the... More
