High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Francis Hotel is a four star hotel in a Grade 1 listed building on the south side of Queen Square, Bath, United Kingdom. Queen Square is the first element in "the most important architectural sequence in Bath”, which includes the Circus and the Royal Crescent. In 1858, Soloman Francis established a boarding house at No. 10 Queen Square. During the 1870s, his widow, Emily, expanded the business; she progressively took over the adjacent residences until May 1884 when seven of the Georgian town houses were opened as the Francis Private Hotel. In April 1942, 24 metres of the hotel frontage was lost when a 500kg high explosive landed on the east side of the hotel during the Bath Blitz. J. Hopwood rebuilt the hotel in 1952-53. The Beatles stayed here in 1963, as well as cricketer Viv Richards. Between 2010 and 2012 the Francis Hotel was refurbished by Accor.
