We will be arriving in Bath by car service (train was cancelled due to strike) likely a few hours earlier than we can check in. There's a stasher facility closer to our apartment than the train station, it's on James St W. Does anyone have any experience with this? When I did street view on Google maps, I didn't see anything at the address given - it looks like it should between the Salvation Army and the Bath Brew House. I'm also wondering how the stasher facilities work. Can I just go directly there and drop off luggage or do I need to reserve space online? Does anyone have any experience with this particular location or any of the stasher locations in Bath?

A lot of Stasher facilities are actually Premier Inns - I note the Bath Premier Inn is on James Street West, so I wonder if it’s that?
I’ve used other Stasher facilities at Premier Inns elsewhere without booking, and it’s been fine, but I guess it depends how busy they are and the time of the year.
I know there used to be a couple of cafes offering baggage storage as you got out of the station, but they tend to have limited hours.

No experience but the stasher website says that it is at the Premier Inn at 4 James Street West- reserve ahead on line- live availability says 10 spaces available.
The PI website confirms that location is open as a hotel.

Wow, thanks everyone for the quick replies. I did go to the website, but somehow missed where it said Premier Inn (my bad, it's very obvious now!) I'm still waiting to hear from our host about early check in so I'm not quite ready to book. Does anyone know, when they say "10 spaces available" does that mean they only have room for 10 more bags, or is it 10 more reservations (we will have 5 small bags)? The price is very good so maybe we'll just book ahead.

10 bags as far as I understand it.
