Stayed here as part of a large group for a family get together. From arrival to departure we felt welcomed and nothing was too much trouble. All the staff were polite, accommodating and very helpful!

A prime example of going above and beyond your job role from the beauticians providing handy information about ways to benefit from our stay following our treatment such as best exercise classes to try that would help our now relaxed muscles loosen further, to the restaurant staff that ensured we had all our meals together in a private dining room and had good fun with us too. They helped make organising little touches such as my sisters birthday cake and even supplied some champagne flutes so we could cheekily have a drop of her birthday prosecco she'd been given for a toast.
The bar staff made me alcohol free cocktails even though they weren't on the menu.
The chefs cooked our food beautifully and we loved the fresh and local produce. They accommodated any allergies or any requests to slightly change a dish to allow for any dislikes. The menu was inventive and we loved the different dishes.
The reception staff helped co-ordinate our dinner preorders and answer any questions we had and dealt with any queries promptly.

Even though we were only staying for two nights by the time we left it felt like we knew the staff and them us, it was all very personal.

The building is charming with its quirky but tasteful decor and the rooms were tastefully done, clean and had everything you'd need and more.

All of this within a stunning setting and grounds so close to Bath city centre and with plenty of scenic national trust walks near by there is loads to explore if you can drag yourself away from the facilities and classes at the country club.

The only criticisms if I'm to be particularly nit picky is the sauna being downstairs off the changing room rather than within the pool area meant that we never used it because we didn't want to do the walk to and from. Areas that are set up to provide water need to be checked more often to ensure the jugs and glasses are replenished. The windows/doors around the pool and pool surroundings could be cleaner but by no means are they dirty! Staff on the country club reception need to remember to give clients robes and flip flops when they check in for treatments. The menu being the same for two nights did work but we would have preferred to have had a different menu for the second evening. These really are such small things that by no means caused any inconvenience but just little tweaks.

Thank you to all the staff for such an enjoyable stay!!

The hotel looks lovely and the restaurant was nice but the gym and spa facilities really really let the place down. The whole place is in desperate need of a good clean.

A third of the lights in the pool were not working which meant it was, well, just a bit creepy in the late evening.

I thought the steam room was closed until i saw someone come out - the only lighting wee a handful of single LEDs.

The changing rooms were a right state. it was a struggle getting a locked that had a key (the place was empty) and reception were as unhelpful as they could possibly be - i ended up leaving my bag and belongings in the car.

I'll not be joining. for the amount it charges, I'd expect better.

Beautiful views, contemporary spacious rooms, gym, inside and outside pool as well as tennis courts. Fine dinning available in the restaurant, eat at the bar or order room service.

Staff are always very helpful

Combe Grove Hotel and Spa is one of the best dog-friendly hotels we have ever stayed at. I couldn't wait to write this review only 2 hours after we checked in :) We brought Henry our husky with us and we were welcomed by the lovely reception staff and generous dog-friendly kit for Henry which includes a massive dog bed, food and water bowls, toilet bags and towels for Henry only for £15 more! Me and my partner just finished using the gym in the club, the gym is well equipped with complimentary towels and water. The room itself is beautifully refurbished with a lovely and bright bathroom with shower. The view outside the room is very nice, overlooking down the hill. There are plenty of walks to go on with Henry here. I would definitely be coming back to Combe Grove with Henry!
