Old Hall Hotel

The staff were amazing very helpful friendly and welcoming i had a evening meal and Sunday Roast which were both excellent over all really enjoyed my stay the only issue was the lift which was a old fashioned style with sliding metal guillotine and if the last person to use the lift did not close it the lift would not work!! But apart from that is was very good

Really quirky hotel, great location! Staff friendly and room spacious Breakfast was of a good standard Would definitely return for a night away Please note is offered a parking permit outside hotel bear in mind its £5.99 per night on check out … overall great stay

When I booked the hotel I got the impression that there was parking there. When we arrived I went into ask where the parking was I was given a map and told to park in a residential street "5 minutes walk away". There were some public parking spaces outside and opposite the hotel (only one space opposite when we arrived) but the signs indicated it was maximum of 4 hours so we did park in one of the residential streets suggested. That night when someone checked in we heard the member of hotel staff say that if he paid the hotel (we didn't hear how much) they would give him a permit to put in his car for 24 hours. As my husband has breathing difficulties, if we had been given that option, we would have happily paid so were rather annoyed that I wasn't told about that, either before or on arrival.

I wouldn’t recommend this hotel. It is very run down and needs money spending on it. The carpet of the entrance to the hotel was dirty and they seemed very short staffed throughout our stay . On our last morning there was only one member of staff working in the breakfast room - he was trying to prepare the food, clean and set tables and welcome and seat guests, which was impossible for him to do all this on his own. Our room had a large damp mouldy area on the ceiling and the plaster and paint work was coming away. I did ask to speak to the duty manager about this, but she informed me that we couldn’t be moved from our room as the hotel was fully booked . She did offer us a bit of discount on our room , but I would have preferred to have a clean, well maintained room. I would not return to this hotel .

The entrance is a little lacking and the welcome a little frosty from reception, but the rooms were wonderful and we all slept like babies in our beds. Breakfast was basic, but hot, clean and filling. Some improvements to be made, but would book again.

Easy check in. The room was good, clean, period decor and furniture. Comfy bed. Buffet breakfast was good.

Great location and lovely historic hotel - bit dated but very clean

Such a great location, with renovated rooms and bathrooms, delicious buffet breakfast, interesting history, and parking available directly outside (subject to availability and about £4 for 24h when purchased from reception). I was slightly nervous to stay here after reading some of the reviews but don’t be put off. It’s a bargain and full of character and charm - you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time. It’s owned by Champneys, and once renovations are complete I’m sure you’ll be paying much more to stay here. In the meantime you get 10% off spa treatments at their very fancy next door hotel.

My room was absolutely amazing and I had the best sleep ever during my 2 night stay .. breakfast was really delicious as was my dinner in the restaurant last night I can’t wait to stay in The Old Hall Hotel again in December I must mention that the Staff are very friendly throughout with a special mention to Victoria at Reception who personally helped me to my room and took time to assist me with booking my next reservation Thank you so much

Lovely old building but tired inside. Stayed in room 13 with the fan from the kitchens outside the window making a racket until 9pm. Window would not stay open so there was no ventilation on a very hot night! The duty manager Maddison found me a fan but it was still horribly hot all night. I would argue that a window that you can open and close is an essential for a hotel room? Some dusty surfaces too. On the plus side, the location is perfect (£6.00 for 24 hour parking right outside is a bargain!) and the breakfast was terrific.

My friend and I stayed here for a long weekend. Was such a lovely little hotel, right next to the town centre so a short walk from anything you needed. Staff were super friendly, polite and helped with recommendations. Would definitely stay here again.

Pay for parking. It's an old hotel, evrything creaks. But with free breakfast it's good value.

The room was perfect for what we needed. Twin room for one night. The person on reception was remarkable, and truly lovely

Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent with a full English on offer and also fruits and yoghurt. Fantastic location to get around town and for woodland walks. Parking for residents outside the hotel, £6 for 24 hours.

Nice Hotel , if a little dated and in need of a make over., but with a lot of old school charm in a very central area for exploring Buxton,

There were quite a few issues. Firstly, there was no mention of parking charges when I booked but on arrival were told that parking close to the hotel was an extra £6 a day! They did advise about free parking further afield but we decided to park close to the hotel and paid the extra. Next, the room and bed were both really small - it was a struggle to open the door and not walk straight into the bed! Next, I appreciate it's a really old building but everything was wonky - the floor went up and down in different areas and even the bed was going downhill to the head!! So much so, I have hiatus hernia and this and the heat made the first night pretty awful! It was the hottest day of the year so far and the room was terribly hot as there is no air conditioning - obviously they can't be held responsible for the heat but it made the night really uncomfortable. The next morning at breakfast all was well, the staff looked after us and the food was lovely and there was plenty of it! When we went back to the room, housekeeping arrived and we asked them to come back later which they did. When we left the room housekeeping were busy in another room and I asked about a fan. The lady very kindly went to look for one but unfortunately couldn't locate one. However, when we got back that evening they had found us a fan and what a blessed relief that was - the 2nd night was much better! All in all, an interesting stay, a lovely historic building in need of a lot of TLC but great staff.

Lovely for a short stay Work on the building didn't do it justice Parking right in front of the hotel which was a bonus

Not the most cleanly or up-to-date stay, but okay for 1 night. Conveniently located and staff are amazing.

Lovely old hotel. A welcome change from soulless modern hotels in the same price range. A quirky place but in a good way. Cheap parking right outside.

We enjoyed our stay here even though the room was very quirky with a very sloping floor. It was a good size though and well equipped. The four post bed looked good but wasn't that comfortable and quite small especially as my husband is 6ft 4. Best to stick to a different room. Staff were all friendly and helpful and parking outside was just £6 a day. The hotel is well situated within easy reach of bars, restaurants and shops etc
