Luxury Family Hotels - accommodation in Chippenham

My father and I were catching up and decided to visit Bath. Alex hotel is in a perfect location for sightseeing. Room had 2 king size beds, shower and bath had plenty of hot water, daily housekeeping, hearty breakfast. The pool needs a clock! Overall 9/10

.

Everything was first-rate (staff, location, breakfast, etc). My only significant beef has to do with the room design, which clearly responded more to the need to keep construction cost low than it did to customer convenience. 1) There is exactly one outlet in the entire room. That requires some dexterity these days with all that needs to be charged. 2) The shower door opens in such a way that one cannot enter and close the running shower without dousing the outside of the door. 3) The toilet cannot be flushed without lowering the lid. 4) Given the absence of a closet or even a folding suitcase rack, I cannot imagine sharing the room (if my wife were with me.) Not much can be done at this point, but caveat emptor!
