Bath Hotels with Free Parking in 2025 with Google Map Marking

Let’s first talk about Bath and then, we will explore the best parking spots there, both free and paid.

Bath is a top-tier destination for both domestic and international visitors. A closer look at its spectacular history and all that it now has to offer explains why so many people flock to this ancient Roman spa town. Bath, named after the Roman public baths, welcomes approximately 6 million visitors each year.

If you are visiting Bath for the first time, you should go to The Roman Baths. Explore the Roman bathing complex, which includes the Great Bath, the Sacred Spring, and the Temple dedicated to Sulis Minerva; learn about spa life and culture in Roman and Georgian times; and, after a long day of enrichment, relax in the soothing warm waters of Thermae Bath Spa.

Bath’s architectural heritage is well-known. The town has many stunning historical buildings, many of which are extremely well-preserved, and spending a day walking around looking for them is highly recommended. You can go it alone or join a guided or self-guided walking tour. Bath Abbey, the Bath Assembly Rooms designed by John Wood the Younger, the Royal Crescent townhouses, the Circus, the Pump Room, and many more are among the highlights.

Bath is ancient, but it is far from sleepy! Every year, Bath hosts a number of well-known festivals that attract millions of visitors. The Bath Festival honors music, literature, and theater and attracts artists, authors, and musicians from all over the world. Other music festivals, a comedy festival, a children’s literature festival, and a film festival are also held there, to name a few. You should consider going in December just to see the Bath Christmas market. The majority of the action in Bath takes place within a 500-metre radius of the Roman Baths. This area is home to the majority of the major attractions, hotels, businesses, and nightlife.

Parking is, predictably, expensive and scarce. We have compiled a list of hotels, bed and breakfasts, and guesthouses in Bath that offer free or heavily discounted parking.
