The Roman Baths Reviews

Visiting roman baths is all what you need...you can drink water whit big property inside the location. Have nice shop whit local products. You can make great picture whit baths architecture + un museum for visit. Price reasonable, and is not space In one comment for all appreciable things . You should go there to see how was real ancient life

One of my favorite places. Excellent explanations, very educational. Amazing what the Romans accomplished.

You will love it better in the evening under the torch lights

The bath in the evening was the star, the food was a bit average and the Pump room noisy and a bit uncomfortable. But the bath was awesome and beautiful.

Really feels like been in a Roman bath back in the first century. Exhibition is really well done, providing very interesting and funny information (curses are really a highlight of the visit).

Beautiful place with lots of history . Great for children and history lover.

I took the bus tour to both Bath and Stonehenge. Bath is a beautiful town. Loved the Baths and the atmosphere.

We visited the Roman Baths, and took the Torchlight tour with dinner afterwards.
The museum is excellent, well-signed, loved meeting Roman citizens in the mini films which combine very well with the audio tours. Our guide on Monday at 7 pm was well-informed, with witty asides and kept it informative and fun.Recommend the delicious dinner too with very helpful staff.
A world class museum. We would love to visit again.

When in Bath you must check out the place that Bath was named for. Definitely great to see such a historical place in person and walk around in such a different area compared to the area around the Roman Baths. There are some smelly parts of the area but still great to experience. It's definitely a nice way to get out of the bustling shopping area and there also a great view of the other historical landmarks around.

I immensely enjoyed my time here. Learning about the history and seeing the baths for myself I found fascinating.

I came from very far only to got to know that there is a 45 minutes queue which is, as I got to know later, on every Sunday! I wish I knew that earlier than I wouldn't bother a trip to Bath Spa at all. Disappointed as I got 2.5 hour time window and I couldn't wait. What's the point being there in stress watching at the time? So I spent all that money in Tkmaxx..

Very nice museum,you get to see only UK hot spring with peace of history.

Very interesting. A lot more in depth than I imagined

The Roman Baths visit it s an absolute must in Bath. It is well worth the time spent there. The audio guides are very well done and the comments by Bill Bryson are an excellent excellent add-on. You really get a sense of how imposing and meaningful he place was and the role it played for the locals.

Nice piece of history right in the town centre. I liked the audio guide we were given at the beggining of the tour. You can learn quite a bit there. But it does get boring after about an hour.

Deffo value for money, although they have a one way system with stickers to stand. For some reason people didn't understand stickers with footsteps on a floor....

Overpriced.



Anyway, the museum is very well organized and the structure well preserved.

Its a great display of ancient Roman architecture and technology.I would say its a mini museum built preserving the ancient architecht.Also you are given tryouts to experience how the ancient romans used techniques to ease their building technology.Eg:lifting bricks,how the water flown to the pool.Also you are given audio tour device which you can hear the detailed recordings of the each part in the museum at the click of a button.
Also there are some projecters showcasting roman lifestyle in old era.Ladies are dressed jn ancient roman costume and you can have fotos with them.
They have a souvenir shop in the same building.

Great place to visit, better on weekdays when there aren't that many people about.

From the outside this place looks simple and not worth seeing. But once inside and on the lower levels, you realize that there is a lot more to it. It is easy to tell that a lot of work was put into preserving and recreating the bath. There are informative signs and audio to guide you through. There are also guided tours throughout the day. You have to reserve your ticket the day before, at least that's what I gathered when I went online. The only thing I didn't like is that you have to choose a thirty minute window when you intend to arrive but you do save ten percent by booking online.

We loved the museum and we enjoyed the tour. It's great to know that England preserved historical sites like this.

I wasn't really interested in going to Bath but it ended up being a fun day. The Roman Baths was comprehensive and you could easily spend a whole day just exploring this place.

Very interesting, and considerably more extensive than I had expected. Definitely worth a visit!

Well set out displays, with audio info you can do individual areas as you walk around. Two ladies dressed in period clothing to chat to. Visual displays also.

It was nice to visit and see the Baths. However, I don't think the price is appropriate.

This place is really neat! Has something for everyone! Like history - thousands of years old! Into pools - cant swim in them but you'll have your next retro design! Into geology? There are rocks and hot springs. Instagram model yeah saw loads there getting the perfect shot! Little that I told there is a huge shark in the pool..... sorry for making you cry... almost everyone loves it...

free for students. no brainer for first time visitors

One of the best preserved Roman baths. Very well maintained and guided. Must see.

The staff are really knowledgeable and the tour was great

Definitely need to visit in Bath. Very historical and interesting

Wonderful place full of history and culture. A must go.

When in Bath you shouldn't miss visiting these historic roman bath, astonishingly well kept and crammed with history. When visiting you'll receive an audio guide free of charge. The information is very interesting and the audio guide even has separate audio files for kids to listen to. The bath can however become quite full and you should expect some waiting /queuing time to enter.

I haven't visited the Roman Baths for l9ng time, this evening we were treated to a lovely wedding ceremony beside the Great Bath. Will have to come back for a proper visit soon!!

A real treat - having been to Bath many times as a child, I had never visited this much treasured attraction, but in some ways this was probably a good thing. We purchased a combined entry ticket (Assembly rooms, fashion exhibition & Roman Baths) which was good value, and the trip was informative, enjoyable but not too busy despite being a lovely, sunny day. The only (Minor) niggle, was that the restaurant was overpriced and failed to inform my partner & I that they served Afternoon tea until AFTER we ordered lunch (nothing mentioned on the menu we were given) it was apparently on a separate menu... Hence 4 not 5 stars.

Pretty cool place, but was pretty busy, probably best to try and visit at a quieter time..

Roman baths...so historical and well preserved. A Roman marvel, these baths were made in the city of Bath in 96BC ( as per the audio guide on premises) and restored in 17th century is a site to be visited by all history enthusiasts.

Tickets are a bit on the expensive side but it was worth it, the Roman baths were reconstructed very accurately and the methods used by the Romans to create a massive spa back in the day is very interesting. Enjoyed every part of the museum/tour

Only negative thing is the crowd, there were too many people when I went and caused traffic jams when walking through the baths

This is so impressive, because so much remains and the museum explains everything to you (and you have an audio guide included in the admission). Though some people said it was expensive, we had a senior discount. It costs a lot to maintain a site like this, and it really is a site worth preserving. I got the idea to visit Bath after listening to the delightful audiobook Memento Mori (one of the Medicus series by Ruth Downie). Someone dies in the sacred hot spring of Aquae Sulis, and much of the investigation and suspense takes place there. At the end of the book, Ruth Downie tells us that Aquae Sulis can be seen today in Bath, and so it got put on my "to visit" list. The delight of seeing what was described in the story was huge. So, in addition to recommending visiting the baths, I recommend reading (or listening to the excellent recording) of the book.

A small treat for someone who likes a bit of history. A good day out.

Impressive!!! Very well maintained roman baths. The tour is interesting and you can also drink the thermal water from a specific fountain. Nice experience!

As the main attraction in Bath the place was indeed worth seeing. With the entrance ticket you are given a guide which provides very detailed commentaries, not of just the baths, but also of the accompanying museum. The museum indeed had great exhibits, and you can really spend some time there listening to the guide and reading everything in details. Great though if you come on busy days be prepared to queue for quite a bit.

Unmissable historic attraction with lots to see inside. Headset guide included in the ticket. However the indoor exhibits were far too crowded with tour groups even on a December weekday afternoon so recommend a visit early in the day.

Just be aware you need to book in advance but fantastic place. Bath is definitely a place to visit.

World class historic destination, small number sections closed off, but most of the museum is open. People numbers and distancing managed really well,with plenty of space to explore at your own leisure.

Historical place.
Thousands beautiful scenes around you with history.
I love Baths.

If you have any doubts how you could possibly spend well over an hour essentially learning about the history of a warm bathing pool, cast them aside. This is a fantastic presentation and recreation of Roman times, full of interesting artifacts and information - brought to life through the audio guide which is included in the entry fee. A great atmosphere where, especially once you reach the baths themselves, you really feel close to history.

This place is very fascinating and it's worth the ticket price as there are plenty of information and displays. Included in the tour there is an audioguide that comes in many languages and helps the visitor to fully understand the site and the history of Bath. Unmissable.

The queue was long, but it moved reasonably quickly. The museum is a lot bigger than I thought and is very detailed and interesting. It's busy though, but worth it. You'll be sure to see some seriously old stuff! Oh and you can drink the spring water......but probably would rather not.

The temple of Sulis Minerva, the hot mineral springs that Aquae Sulis (Bath) was built on is something extraordinary to see. The story of the place, the Roman statues, the old temple ruins are abs fascinating. The reason I marked only 3 stars is due to the lack of maintenance and poor organization, way too many people are allowed in at once and this creates chaos. We have barely managed to take some pictures while being pushed and stepped on.

Amazing architecture from Roman times!! Lots of history, and very educational as well.

Beautiful historic site, but very small and very pricey to visit for what you see. I've been to much more impressive ancient sites for a fraction of the price.

Very Interesting And Staff There Very Knowledgeable.

Well worth a visit and make sure you take advantage of the free audioguide to make the most of your visit.

Simply breathtaking. Such a deep and passionate history from the times of the Romans to now

Awesome place to visit and very interesting. A must see

Loved the baths. Amazing place. Count on spending a lot of time there if you listen to all they have to tell you in their audio program and make sure you join the guide at the end for some additional info.

You must see this if you are in Bath. Learn a lot of the romans and thier baths

The audio guide is very interesting, varied and informative. It's lovely going as local resident of Bath

Very well preserved Roman baths from 60-70 AD. The actors in the building, the holograms, videos and audio recordings further enrich the museum experience and are impressive. The layout of the museum is well-ordered, clearly indicating the parts corresponding to the temple and the bath. The captions in each of the rooms help the visitor reexperience the significance of each of the spaces. The actual baths and the statues on top of them are also impressive. A line of Roman Emperors and provincial governors of Britain are depicted close to where the roof of the complex used to be. Finally, you can drink the water from a tap close to the exit which is signposted and cups are also provided (do not drink or touch the water from the actual baths).

Nice architecture and a tour of the Roman influence in ancient British times with the Roman Bath filled with water that looks like green in colour.

Very interesting and historical. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit.

Had afternoon tea in the Pump Room. Lots to eat. Very nice.

What a great place so much history only gets four stars because it was packed the day I visited.

Simply amazing. This is the sole reason i visited Bath.
