The cooked breakfast was nice. Staff absolutely lovely except from one person in the main reception who booked us in (looked and sounded like they did not want to be there - could have been having a bad day). Clean, tidy rooms. Showers worked well.

Usual quick and easy check-in. Room was clean and tidy. The only problem I found with my room was that it was very hot when I arrived. This was due to the thermostatic valve on the radiator being slightly broken and not fully closing the hot water inlet. Luckily I managed to re-seat the valve, although it did move and open slightly during the night. As I had to leave early in the morning there was no-one on Reception to inform to ensure this was fixed for the next guest.

Another great stay at the Palace. Easy check-in and our room was clean and for a compact room, it was spacious and light. The hotel has been going through a programme of refurbishment and it look really good and the public areas and corridors are smart and renewed. Will be back again.

Last minute booking. Furniture in the room was a little dated but 5 stars for a very comfortable bed, amazing bathroom with great shower. Lovely staff who were friendly and could not do enough for us. Loved the extra touches - packets of fudge in the room, decent tea, bottled water and good biscuits. Decent breakfast. Loved the old world grandeur of the building. Would recommend this hotel and we will be back. Shout out to The olive tree restaurant - amazing food

Property is obviously the grandest in Buxton and a great looking building and ideally placed in the centre of town. Shared areas in the hotel are fine, but the bedroom was an all too common story of ageing English hotels, with a cheap attempt at a refresh but ultimately poorly maintained and not really living up to the expectations of the price and the rest of the hotel surroundings. Some staff helpful but only the 4th member was actually able to find an extra pillow after the previous 3 saying there were none available.

Be aware that there is clearly a big renovation project taking place. Our room had clearly had the room done but the bathroom, although spotless, was old. Our children’s room was the opposite. The two rooms although sold at the same price were entirely different sizes and one of the rooms had obviously been split from its neighbour with a bit of cardboard the soundproofing was so poor. It’s a beautiful old building so we know it won’t be perfect. It has loads of personality, is in a fab location, is spotless throughout and the breakfast was great. It’s perfect for a night but just not convinced it is 4*.

I love this hotel. 3rd time staying there and i hope it won't be the last. It exudes a grandeur and charm of a time gone by. Feels full of history. The staircase is magnificent. Excellent value for money.
