The Cross Bath

The water was just right. Well worth visiting. Nick, the lifeguard was very friendly and helpful.

OMG what an amazing place. It is a hidden gem, just beautiful. We booked it as a real treat, but also because our 12 year old was too young to go in the rooftop spa opposite. Incredible luxurious experience in a sacred space.

The Cross Bath was an ok experience for me. The water temperature was not warm enough for me on a day in late May, and it's situated outside. I was shivering about 10 minutes into my session, which was disappointing since you are able to stay for 1.5 hours. That wasn't possible for me because I was too cold and unable to relax. The shower was actually warmer than the thermal water. It's nice because it is limited to 10 people per session, but unfortunately, the day I went had a group of 7 college students who weren't respecting the essence of a spa, and the bath employees didn't do much to make the atmosphere more comfortable and relaxing. The staff apologized as I was leaving, but it would have been more appropriate to try and fix the situation in my opinion.

Lovely experience. However, we felt staff rushed us at the end. Lack of enough changing facilities which was especially felt on a cold day in February. Nowhere to get a drink.

Stumbled across this historic beauty during a walk around Bath. The information board states its origins (see photos). The current venue is apparently available for private hire.
