The Old Hall Hotel - 9 May

Buffet self service breakfast was good but would be improved by more choice of fruit, continental and pastries. Option for other cooked eggs was not explained nor shown any table menus. Hotel in great location with plenty of available parking and adequate for overnight or limited length stays

Great Hotel

The staff were very friendly, efficient & polite, really good and a credit to the hotel. Nice historic hotel in a great location for the town & Opera House. Comfortable bed, big room, good shower, very clean. Carpet maybe needs updating but it didn't spoil our stay. I haven't been to Buxton for a number of years & sadly like a lot of towns, there are lots of empty shops. Would return to the hotel

A quaint traditional hotel. Comfortable, clean but slightly dated. It was however in a convenient spot in Buxton, offered reduced parking rates, though parking was “pot-luck!” Staff friendly and obliging. No food availability after 9.00pm.

Overnight stay to attend a wedding

Never been to Buxton and was to attend a wedding at the Devonshire Dome. Chose the hotel for proximity and definitely did not disappoint. We were close to the centre and within walking distance to the major attractions and local pubs and cafes . Just across is a beautiful park and Pavilion. Just happens to be a local super hero event too , so lovely stay and nice first visit

Needs a lot of investment.

Stayed for 4-nights during the Easter holidays. The property is very grand but has clearly lacked investment over the years. It needs a lot of money spending on it. The decor is very dated, with the carpets almost worn to the base. The staff were great and very helpful throughout. In its current condition, I probably wouldn't stay again.

Good location impressive, however breakfast food was overcooked and dry, on the Friday breakfast buffet bar the plates were cold. Dinner both nights was good and the staff very pleasant. This was a memory lane visit has I had stayed there many nights 47years ago.

Not worth the money old and dated

Rooms very dated and old. Uncomfortable beds, noises and floor creaking with bathroom from the 1989’s. No shamooo or shower gel, cold shower. Not worth £166 stay
