To put a spin on the old saying, “When in Bath, do as the Romans did.” That means soaking like they did in the natural hot mineral-rich waters that mysteriously flow into this charming Southwest England city.
Take the waters in several rooms at Thermae Bath Spa, including the magnificent open-air rooftop pool, surrounded by the ancient buildings of this UNESCO World Heritage city, just a 90-minute train ride from London.
Stay a few steps away at the new Gainsborough Bath Spa, a gorgeous hotel housed in a former hospital, which boasts its own Spa Village Bath.
