Wow never thought West would get as many as he did and be in second.Well cant blame people for picking him as their favorite cause he got it all started and he is still good for the laughs.LOL.For me its Bale,hands down,no contest,heres why.
Keaton while he was a good Batman,he did look good under the mask,he was a horrible Bruce Wayne.Had the total wrong build,looked nothing like the part which is crucial for Batman, and acted nothing like Bruce Wayne.He just copied Chris Reeves great performance as superman being a goofy dork as Clark Kent but macho and cool as superman which is not Bruce Wayne at all.
Kilmer was a much better Bruce Wayne.He looked the part and had the right build and everything and was great when portraying Bruce Wayne.He acted like him as well being cool and suave with the women as Bruce Wayne does in the comics.But he wasnt a very good Batman though,he was a bad Batman.
Where Bale was awesome as BOTH Batman AND Bruce Wayne.He nailed the character of Bruce Wayne,acted like him,had the right look,right build and everything.He became Bruce Wayne.He was amazing in his performance as Batman as well.Imtimidating presence,great voice,everything.so He is really the one and only true Bruce Wayne/Batman to have played the role so far.There might be someone down the road in the future when maybe they reboot the series again say 20 years or so who is as great as both Bruce wayne and Batman but so far,he's the one and only true Bruce Wayne/Batman to have donned the cape and cowl. 🙂

I have a soft spot for the Burton films, but Bale still does the best job of acting the playboy of Bruce Wayne.The voice he uses for Batman is just overkill though. But he does the Dark Avenger quite well.
I think the voice, though it might sound weird on screen, would actually be quite a good choice if you were Batman. I mean, you have to remember that the criminals he talks to are not just bystanders thinking about the aesthetic aspects of Batman's voice, but guys that are already shitting themselves cause a 2 meter Bat that's known not to hold back very much is coming after them. And it does disguise Bruce Wayne's voice excellently.
