The Royal Crescent-Member of Von Essen Hotels a private collection of individual country houses in the UK, Scotland and France-Voted by Telegraph readers the 4th Best British Hotel in the Telegraph Travel Awards. The Royal Crescent has to be the finest of all Bath Hotels for its uniquely magnificent location, its beautiful secret gardens, its fabulous spa, its renowned restaurant and the luxuriously wonderful accommodation. Begun in 1767 by John Wood the Younger, the crescent took eight years to complete and included some of the grandest houses in Bath. John Wood was utterly determined that his masterpiece should present a prospect of total uniformity and understated gracefulness, his sweeping vision and scrupulous attention to every detail has created a great elliptical curve almost fifty feet high and five hundred feet long that comprises thirty houses of grand proportions.
