Location

The Bath Priory (part of the Brownsword family of hotels) has a great location in Bath, just a short walk from the city centre, with a bus stop right outside. The hotel is a Georgian house with 33 bedrooms built in honey‑coloured Bath stone, surrounded by four acres of award‑winning gardens. We have earned 5‑star level awards for over ten years and are seeking sparkling new personalities to join our family.

We pay our team a monthly service charge that is shared equally among all staff. The service charge can be around £160 per month, approximately £2,000 per year, in addition to base pay.
