Nestling in the heart of historic Bath stands Pratt's Hotel. Ideally situated for both leisure and corporate guests wishing to visit or explore this magical city. Pratt's prides itself on its warm and friendly welcome. This classical Georgian hotel has 46 individually decorated bedrooms all with en-suite facilities. Attention to detail and comfort in each room provides an individual flavour to your stay. The elegant restaurant serves table d'hote or a la carte menus offering a wide range of popular and classical dishes plus a selection of vegetarian options. An extensive and imaginative wine list is available. The hotel bar offers views onto Bath's famous South Parade and is the ideal place for pre-dinner drinks or a nightcap to round off the evening. Morning coffee and afternoon tea are served in one of the hotel's comfortable lounges. Built from the famous Bath honey-coloured stone by one of the city's most famous architects, John Wood the Elder, in 1743, it was originally five town houses. As early as 1791 two of these were being used as boarding houses. Some of the famous occupants included Sir Walter Scott, William Wilberforce and Dame Peggy Ashcroft. Mrs. Frederick Pratt bought the boarding house at No 5 in 1910 and by 1917 the property was registered as Pratt's Hotel. Built in the heady days of Beau Nash, Pratt's Hotel has been part of the city's heritage for more than two centuries. The building itself has many interesting features including a bowed landing on the staircase, designed to enable the 'Chairmen' to take clients back to their rooms in Sedan Chairs following their treatments in the city's famous spa baths. For the business visitor there are two conference rooms: the Gainsborough Room seats 50 theatre-style and the Sheridan Room 26 theatre-style. Both offer natural daylight and are situated in a secluded part of the hotel. Delegate rates are available and include room and audio-visual equipment hire and meals. There is a pay and display car park opposite the hotel. If you're looking for something more active, Bath's sports facilities are second to none. A short walk from the hotel is the Bath Sports and Leisure Centre with an excellent pool and gym. The famous rugby and cricket grounds are also close by. For a day at the races or a round of golf at one of the four first-class courses you will find all you need on the outskirts of the city. If it's the arts you're after then Bath has a wealth of cultural attractions. Alongside its theatres, jazz clubs and street entertainers are the famous International Horse Trials at Badminton, the Fringe Festival or the classical quartet in the Pump Room. Bath also boasts many of Britain's most fascinating museums - children can play with the hands-on working displays of industrial machinery from 100 years ago at Mr. Bowler's Business or enjoy the authentic displays of early American life, including home-made chocolate brownies, at the museum.
