Just an hour and 20 minutes by direct rail link from London, or a two hour drive by car, the 45-room Royal Crescent in historic Georgian Bath is one of only two Grade 1 listed hotels in the UK.
Dine at Pimpernels, the hotel's restaurant and bar, which offers breakfast, lunch, dinner and afternoon tea service. Inquire with the concierge about the hidden area treasures. Splurge and have your laundry done and clothing pressed by the valet. Order a midnight snack from the 24-hour room service staff.
Sink into the hotel's private Bath House, a full-service spa where guests are urged to experience the healing waters of the region.
Guests of the Crescent can also take advantage of the property's private river launch, the 1920's Lady Sophina, or take a ride on their hot air balloon.
All accommodations are air-conditioned and feature a custom-made Cliveden bed. Room amenities include a bathroom outfitted with bath and shower, robes, bath amenities, a color TV, video player, and CD stereo.
