Great base!
The Hotel was good, in a great location overlooking the Pavilion Gardens and central to the whole of the centre of Buxton. The staff were very helpful and polite. The only thing that disappointed me was that our room needed some tlc to smarten it up, but overall a great base 😎

The Hotel very dated, seems NEVER been updated with furniture, beds carpets. Dining was bad, only 1-2 Items available from menu and even extra Gravy was an issue as could not provide because kitchen closed 10 minutes ago? Old sticky carpets, dated furniture over 30 years old, Surprised Bookings.com have this hotel on their site? any one booking CANCEL now. Very dissapointed with the bedroom , just a fan , noisy old windows, dated cupboards, very tiny small room , should have been a single room.

One Night Stay
The hotel is very old worldly which is what I expected. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast waiter was abrupt and rude not only to myself but both tables either side of me. If he wants to work in the hospitality industry he needs to seriously review his attitude towards paying guests. Maybe a 'wait to be seated' sign may help? The breakfast food was only just average.

We wanted to be close to the Opera House as we were attending 3 shows as part of the international Gilbert and Sullivan festival. The hotel gave us a great rate, a really lovely, spacious room with a fantastic bathroom - and it was so close to the theatre we were back in the hotel before everyone was out of the theatre! A really good breakfast is provided, the hotel has a lovely bar - we enjoyed a cold beer boyh nights after the theatre - and although we didn’t take dinner there, they offer a great-sounding fixed-price menu which is really reasonably priced. Staff are so helpful and friendly. We would defistay there again.

Unique historic hotel well situated in the centre of Buxton. Helpful staff and good breakfast. Although I love the charm of this hotel, the rooms could use some basic upgrades such as painting, bedding, replacing shower curtains and bath mats in the rooms. Main pub and restaurant have the period charm I was hoping for.

Hmmm
Dated old hotel way past it’s prime- lift was a debarcle, an inside safety door had to be fully shut as you left the lift, otherwise it didn’t operate and no one was able to use it. I saw elderly people struggle with the stairs as the lift was never operating. Spacious room, and breakfast was great. Location fantastic.

Nice hotel with nice food and friendly and very helpful staff. Our family room was the very top of the building and was very hot and uncomfortable. That being said, I would recommend people to stay here if visiting Buxton.

We’ve stayed at the old hall many times before it was bought out. Although we were happy, I do feel the old hall has lost some of its charm. Such as with the breakfast, which was average and limited, no where near what it used to be.

The hotel is in a great central location and the staff are delightful and very accommodating. Nearby parking has to be paid for, but that is the norm in Buxton (a few minutes walk away are free areas). We had a late dinner after a gig and the staff were really helpful and flexible in arranging this after the advertised service cut off time. The food was excellent, really tasty and very generous portions for the price. Breakfast was fine (buffet so a little bit of a lottery). The hotel is quite old fashioned, which is a nice change but it could do with a lick of paint and maybe some targeted updating in a few areas.
