“This grand hotel captures a sense of history, with spacious, clean rooms and an exceptional location for exploring Buxton on foot. While many staff interactions are marked by warmth and helpfulness, the breakfast buffet, though varied, can sometimes suffer from temperature issues due to its self-service nature. Still, the comfortable beds and impressive public spaces make it a place I'd readily consider returning to.”
