Bath Abbey Reviews

The Bath Abbey experience with my husband was lovely although we wasn't aware that there was an opportunity to climb the stairs to the top of the building.

Well worth popping in. A small donation is requested but not mandatory.

Find out when Evensong is and go for that. Incredibly beautiful way to experience the Abbey.

Beautiful church with attractive and pleasant squares around

There's are major restaurations going on (Sept 2018) but a lot is still visible. The ceiling is stunning.

Great building architecture and beautiful surroundings

Beautiful ceilings. A bit too crowded, as many things in Bath

Due to long overdue refurb. Most of Abbey is shut off, never mind there is always next visit

Beautiful place to see in and out and if the choir are rehearsing even better.

We took the tower tour and had 2 amazing your tour guides.Very knowledgeable and no pressure on the stairs during the climb up views were amazing and it was lovely to see the other side of the ceiling and workings of the clock

We live locally so enjoy this magnificent place regularly, Bath is beautiful

Always an interesting place to visit and worship in.

Great atmosphere and visit..

Not such a friendly service around..

Staff pushing around

Its a nice romantic place to hangout with your partner

Really nice place, donation welcomed on entrance and staff were very friendly.

Very few places left with this type of architecture.

Visit this place. Full of beauty and staff very helpful and friendly.

Lovely place to sit and contemplate life. Away from the crazy markets at Christmas and stores in summer. Beautiful.

Truly amazing absolute awesome place to see just visually it is amazing and the detail is mind blowing defo come have a look

Go on the tower tour. Amazing views and very interesting.

Stunningly cinematic! And the gift shop has lovely, charming items that are unlike any other souvenirs. Make a donation to help maintain this ancient, beautiful work of art! There are already plenty of photos of the building and sculptures, so I will share these framed tapestries that hang inside the Bath Abbey. (Bath was the best part of our Stonehenge+Bath Tour.)

Such a magnificent place to visit! Make sure to take the tour. You get to see all the really interesting stuff and hear the history of the place

Pretty and everyone was friendly. Not very big can be done in 10mins.

Whether you go in for a service and go in with hordes of tourists. Enjoy the space. But I preferred when I visited for a service. That's when Bath Abbey is seen as it should be; as a living community of believers coming together to be with God and fellowship with one another.

It doesn t require any entrance fee but open to any amount of donations. The architecture founded long time ago but renovations are as good as the old ones. The marvellous stained glass work will catch your eye for sure. It is worth going inside the place and knowing about history behind every corner. They offer variety of gifts to buy from the gift shop too. Enjoy

Took a tour to the top of the church, loved it.. pretty cheap believe it cost 11 pounds

A beautiful Abbey plenty of carvings and memorials has to be seen.

Chills, so many mega old engraved stones pave the Abbey.

An impressive Victorian abbey as there are many in England. Coming from Oxford and its cathedral, I was impressed by its ceiling, amused by the angels who climb the facade but I did not vibrate during the visit. Maybe work in progress blocking a third of the interior is for something.

Fantastic fan patterns on the ceiling and the up-and-coming columns! A harmonious architecture. Only at the moment the soil is torn open. Construction site due to heating with construction noise. Happy to visit! But no silence in the church.

Bath is the largest city in the county of Somerset, England, known for its Roman-built baths. In 2011, the population was 88,859. Bath is in the valley of the River Avon, 97 miles west of London and 11 miles south-east of Bristol. The city became a World Heritage site in 1987.

Beautiful architecture with revitalising services that make your 'soul' feel at peace.

Not the most awe inspiring building in Bath, but worth a visit

Beautiful abbey, worth a look around, though the "suggested donation" price is too high.

Stunning architecture and helpful guides explaining about the renovations going on

Take the tour if you can. A lot of steps, make sure you re wearing suitable clothing. Views from the top well worth the climb. I know of a wedding photo shoot happened up there.

Bath is a great place to see with lots of shops and things to do highly recommend

Beautiful Carol service. Put me right in the Christmas mood. What an impressive building! Would highly recommend for a visit.

The city of Bath is full of beautiful old buildings, but nothing that compares to the splendor of the Abbey!
There is no fixed price for entry, just a donation of your choosing, which I think is very nice.

There are usually plenty of friendly volunteers wondering around the abbey to answer questions and give information.
For the more religious visitors, there are small hourly services, and all major religious events around the calendar.

Highly recommended a visit no matter what your religious belief.

Stunning stunning stunning. Architecture well kept, fascinating interior, best fanning vaults in England. Loads of interesting things to see inside.

Welcoming and stunning, even if you're not 'religious'.

My partner and I visited the Abbey after visiting the Roman Baths as they are so close to each other. It was interesting to see the Abbey, and the church organ is very impressive, however a large section of the Abbey was closed off due to restoration works on the floors.

Beautiful, amazing, awe inspiring. A must see in Bath.

Small but very beautiful. The door girls super nice.

Breathtaking Abbey from the outside and just one of the wonderful historical architectural places in beautiful Bath.

Stunning!! Shame about the constitution work taking place at the moment

Magic and amazing place! Go with more than 3h to explore it properly and make the most of the visit!

A great Abbey to visit, run by donation only payment. Well worth a visit.

One of the nicest churches of this style. It is bright, simple, and the architecture is wonderful. The choir is also one of the best, and the tower tours are both interesting and entertaining, especially at Christmas time when you get a mince pie and a mulled wine at the top, looking down at the lit-up Bath.

We did the walk on to the roof of the abbey....was very intimate tour of a wonderfull building

It's an Abbey, it's beautiful. Not much else you can say.

A very special old resort town. With lots of interesting buildings. Bath Abbey is a unique ceiling, quite different from the rest of England. Impressively large window stained glass windows, lots of beautiful carvings and organ to listen to in the day. There is really something to look at.

Beautiful place. I couldn t believe it. Everywhere you looked it was something incredible.
