Firstly the room was like a prison room it’s just plain white with marks all over the walls and it has not been decorated for years !! Then there is the lack of spa the whole reason we booked we tried numerous times to book with the spa and nothing ! The staff at the hotel was not helpful with this at all! The leisure facilities were unclean and smelly was not worth the 6 pounds and we only spent 15 mins in there as the pool was freezing! The best part about the hotel was the entrance! Then everything else was downhill from there! The best way to describe it is the tower of terror !

Great Hotel and short stay
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, room was clean and the place looked like it had been refurbished recently. We didn’t eat there as only there for 2 nights and came to visit the many pubs and excellent eateries in Buxton. We will certainly be booking again.

Great location the rest is average at best
Hotel was in a fantastic location and the communal areas are very grand. The bedrooms are tired but ok. The temperature is ridiculously hot and could not turn the radiator down in the end opened the bedroom. Getting a drink wasn’t easy lots of staff but no one around. Had to pay to use the ‘spa’ facilities but really not very nice would not bother in future.
