Bathrooms weren't cleaned so often, garbage wasn't picked up on time. Location is very good, close to te attractions and ten minute walk from the railway station.

Hostel is nice but it was very noisy at night! Most night I was jolted awake by the voice of the customers of the bar below the hostel. I cant sleep with earplug so i had to bear with it. Other than that, this hostel is located in an amazing location and was decent and nice.

Very good location, if you are hoping to meet people this isn't the place to go. It can be really noisy if you are a light sleeper, but It didn't bother me. This hostel was a place that large groups of people stayed when they were partying in Bath. The bathrooms weren't the cleanest but if I only stayed a couple nights so it was manageable, nobody seemed to know how to flush the toilets properly.

Bath is a pretty old city with lots of history - the hostel is no exception. The facilities are older, and the shower is a difficult at times due to insufficient space to lather without everything washing away at the same time. Regardless, the hostel is great value for its location, overall facilities, and the staff.

great view of the church from the window. it was sort of hard to find, but it was nice to have the pub downstairs, with a separate entrance to the hostel. Staff was great!

Everything was great except for the bathrooms. The water saver mode made it impossible to use the shower or do anything involving the sink.

Unfortunately we did not stay at St.Christophers in Bath as we had left the name address phone number all back in our hotel in London so we couldnt remember where we were to stay other than it was a Hostel and when we did ring St.Christophers to see if they had our name for a booking they said they could not give us that information, therefore we had to return to London without staying overnight in Bath.

Really great staff. Bit of a lack of places to hang out and the security factor was a bit questionable, but I think that was more to do with the people who were there at the time than the hostel itself.

The Staff are nice. Friendly. The bedrooms are also ok, for the price. The showers are weird. You turn it on and the showers are placed in a position that you wet everything and everywhere. So be careful with that

Had an awesome stay at St Christopher's in Bath. Met some awesome people, really good vibe around the hostel and belushi's downstairs is a great bar with very good food. The staff really made my stay here, great bunch of peeps! Only negatives were that the showers were very temperamental. They were either hot, or cold, which isn't terribly pleasant. Breakfast was also pretty basic. Some variety in the spreads/jams etc would be good. Would definitely stay here again though when in Bath next!

The only thing that I really disliked about the hostel was that the showers and sinks were controlled so you would have to pump the handle to have a continuous shower and you never knew what temperature it would be, though it was never a cold shower.

The hostel is ok; good staff, good rock'n roll decoration style, seemed to be very secure (with all that magnetic card instead of keys) etc. But: -Arriving in the morning? Going on the afternoon? Sorry, you have to pay 1.50 (each time) for keeping your luggage, because check-out is 10am and check-in is 2pm — a 4-hours-gap, and they won't consider that you're actually a customer. - the breakfast could be better, with more options. - in my 12-bed room there were few wall sockets.

Hello, Thank you for your feedback . We welcome all feedback positive and Negative so we can improve the guest stay with us. I'm glad you found the hostel secure we have invested a great a deal to change the keycard system so that it caused less problems and made the hostel more secure. In regards to the power sockets we are looking at putting in more in the near future. The luggage storage is a safe locked room which has access only via a code and staff member. Thank you again and hopefully we will see you again in the future.

For a budget room, it was good, & the rooms were well equipped. The hostel is located over a pub which was noisy until about 1am, making it hard to sleep. The location is excellent, right in the centre of Bath. Free breakfast was adequate & a nice addition to the cheap price. The reception was part of the bar in the pub, & the entrance was a bit hard to find. I had to wait a bit to be checked in as the pub was busy that night and that seemed like the priority. Staff helpful and friendly.

Shame about the lack of a kitchen/big communal area, but I guess the discounts for food you get downstairs make up for that, plus the free breakfast is great
