What happened after The Hotel Inspector?

Tasburgh House Hotel is a red-brick Victorian house on Warminster Road in Bath (BA2 6SH), built in 1891 as a family home for the photographer John Berryman, according to Wikipedia's article on the hotel (read 2026-10-19). Wikipedia reports it was converted from flats to a hotel around 1969, that one owner ran it from 1996 to 2019, adding three guest bedrooms and rear terracing, and that it won a World Hotel Award for best UK luxury guest house in 2015.

The Hotel Inspector visited in series 2, in an episode aired 2006-08-10. Wikipedia's list of The Hotel Inspector episodes describes an award-winning B&B with few guests, held back by cramped rooms, poor bathrooms and a high nightly rate. Ruth Watson returned for a follow-up episode in series 3, which the list dates to 8 November 2007.

Since then, Wikipedia's article reports the hotel was sold in 2019 to a new operator that ran it as a 15-bedroom boutique hotel with a residents-only bar, that it closed permanently in 2020, and that the building is now a private house. A Google Maps listing for Tasburgh House Hotel, checked 2026-10-19, is marked permanently closed. The hotel's old website, tasburghhouse.co.uk, still loaded on that date and showed a history page rather than booking tools.

Tasburgh House Hotel in Bath returned to The Hotel Inspector in a revisit episode that ShowsPlus lists as airing on Channel 5 on 2007-12-27, the tenth episode of series 3, titled "Tasburgh House Hotel, Bath (Revisited)". Wikipedia's list of The Hotel Inspector episodes describes it as Ruth Watson revisiting Bath to see how the hotel is doing since her visit. According to ShowsPlus's description, she went back to check whether the owner had turned the business around. The sources read for this appearance do not report the result of the revisit, and no later information on the hotel was gathered for this episode.
