Check in was nice and quick by friendly staff. Room very spacious, large bathroom, comfortable bed, room nice, clean and warm. Breakfast was great, help yourself to anything that was available. The hotel is very old with lots of character, great building. Everyone was very polite and helpful, gave us some great information with what was going on around Buxton and how to get to Bakewell on the local transport. Great stay, would definitely stop here again, when next coming up that way. Thanks.

Ideally situated for all amenities. Room comfortable. Breakfast spot on, but because the plates were cold, the hot food cooled before we had finished eating. Warm plates would have made a big difference.

One night stay
Hotel close to the centre of the town and only a minute walk from the opera house and gardens. Looks like some refurbishment in progress. Tidy rooms but some of the chairs a touch fragile. Rooms clean. Parts of the hotel look like they could do with a bit of redecorating. Lift in the hotel but small and temperamental with sliding door on inside which if not closed stops the lift working (left open by a guest on a top floor so needed to be closed to resume working) Good breakfast. Parking outside the hotel but was busy. A ticket from the hotel covered 24hrs from issue. Otherwise it's pay and display which could be expensive as time limited during the day.

Perfectly adequate
Perfectly adequate 3star hotel. A touch of nostalgic faded glory. Tired carpets, overworked staff ( and too few of them ) and unadventurous evening menu. Comfortable, warm room and a good shower. £9 for a small glass of wine seemed excessive but it was well chilled!

I would NEVER deal with this property and chain again. Because of flight changes, we asked to delay our arrival by one day, and instead add TWO days on the end. They flatly refused to do this, even tho to their benefit, repeatedly stating that these were the rules for the group. On arrival, they expressed surprise when we arrived "one day late, and the front desk were completely indifferent to the whole situation. So we stayed elsewhere for THREE extra nights in the end. And for good measure, the hotel itself is tired, regardless of age. Some rear ends need kicking around the whole place.

Outdated but lovely
The hotel itself is dated with it's decor and layout but the staff are excellent and very welcoming. Our room was nice and big, we had views across the pavilion gardens and the bed was nice and comfortable. The shower was spot on with very good temperature and pressure. Plenty of plug sockets and a reasonable TV. A hotel with charm and character rather than a soulless chain.

Excellent hotel
Fantastic hotel and really lovely staff. The breakfast was good and because it was cooked in small batches, hot and fresh. Coffee served in a cafetiere and tea in a teapot. We ate in the bar one evening and the food was delicious. The room we stayed in was large with a very comfortable 4 poster bed. Bathroom was large and supplied with shower gel, shampoo and hand wash. Large bath towels were a bonus. Parking outside the hotel is £6 for 24 hours with a ticket from reception. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
