Visiting Bath?
Discussion
Lots to do in Bath no matter what you are into, which hotel are you staying in?
You are correct in saying not very car friendly, there is a CAZ but at present cars no matter their emmisions are not charged, you are however charged more to park in most car parks depending on your emmisions!

Lovely place , walkable easily , beware of the bird s
t , it rained when we were there and the umbrella was a necessity not just for the rain !
Also , if you’re planning a night out on Sunday be aware a lot of the pubs close early , it’s a bath thing apparently, or was a few years ago !
Nice place for a couple of days though.

It's a nice weekend away, you have a lot of things to walk around and see. Restaurants/bars are nice.
Of course do the roman baths, the architecture such as the royal crescent.
Never bothered with the baths on top of the building, I've heard its a bit chavvy and always packed.
Parking you need to be outside the zones if you can, it's all a bleeding ball ache.

Thanks for the suggestions so far..
We are staying at a place called the Roseate? By Henrietta park.. Hoping the on site parking isn't too tight or busy to avoid parking the Gallardo on the street!
Open to suggestions on what to see, especially any must-see's.
We tend not to do pubs so much, but perhaps some bars? Do they do guided walks/tours or anything like that? Perhaps a theatre/comedy club?

I stayed in the Raddison on Henrietta and from memory there was P&D parking on that road Mon-Sat if you could get it. Luckily the hotel had some spots behind we just parked on the Sunday.

Bath Gin bar was nice after dinner.
Book a table it gets busy in town.
Can’t speak for that hotel specifically but that area is pretty busy with parking, it’s just off Great Pulteney Street so you’re right by the weir and the river.
Theatre Royal will have something on undoubtedly. Close by is the Komedia comedy club and tucked out of the way near there is the Little Theatre which shows non-mainstream films.
The ghost tour (walking tour) is pretty highly regarded.
Restaurants to look at:
Henry’s
The Elder
Sotto Sotto
Comptoir & Cuisine (NOT Comptoir Libanis down by the station!)
Off the beaten track cocktails:
Gin bar
Dark Horse
The Hideout
Proper pubs:
Old Green Tree
Raven
Griffin
Crystal Palace
Walcot Street area is quirky.
If you fancy getting out of town, the American Museum is great and has lovely grounds. Ditto Holborne Museum. The Costume Museum is highly regarded by folk who appreciate such things
Shout with any other questions, I’m 20 minutes away near Castle Combe which is worth a visit if you like chocolate box villages and it’s much less busy this time of year.
