The Bath Hotel was located at 155 Piccadilly on the site of what is now the The Ritz Hotel, London and was adjacent to the Walsingham House. The Ritz' financial backers began negotiations in 1901 and purchased the Bath in 1902 simultaneously with the acquisition of the Walsingham. One of the considerations that made the transaction appealing to the city was that they would be able to widen Piccadilly when the Walsingham and Bath Hotels were demolished.

History
Located on the corner of Arlington Street and Piccadilly the hotel was in existence as early as 1789 on the site of the original building where the Old White Horse Cellar operated, and offered luxury hotel suites to its clients.
In 1895 the property was offered for sale, indicating that there were profitable rents to be obtained from leaseholds of the booking agent and the wine and spirit retailer on the premises.
The building was demolished in 1904.
