Great stay in Buxton
Location and facilities great, as were the staff and management. Breakfast was one of the best ever. Buxton is a fabulous place, and we will go there again and stay at the Queens Head.

Superb accommodation. Very clean, comfortable and spacious. Great shower. Perfect location10 minutes stroll to town and 30 mins walk to the brewery. Best thing about this place though is the staff - amazing - really friendly, helpful and kind. Great pub serving Jaipur, which is my favourite beer. Didn't take the opportunity to enjoy the live music as we were there for rest but we would take it up next time we stay. Btw don't be put off by late night music. The rooms are very very quiet. Window open all night and no noise from the street either
Thank you to everyone who made our stay incredible. And thank you to Ian for the drinks. We will definitely be back and would recommend to anyone looking to stay in Buxton.

Great venue with live Music at the weekend
A lovely hotel which is masked by a traditional pub frontage. The rooms which are at the back of the pub in a purpose built buildings are spacious and clean. The pub has great live bands on every Friday and Saturday evenings.

An excellent place to stay for a couple of nights
Easy check-in and friendly staff showing me to my room and instructing me to let him know if there was anything I required during my stay. Room, which is separate to the main pub, was adequate in size and facilities with a very good shower in the bathroom. The hotel is close to the market square where there is a good choice of restaurants, shops and cafes, and it's easy to find breakfast if you decide not to have it in the hotel. It's also only a short 10-15 minute walk to the lower town with all the spa facilities and attractive buildings, although lookout for extortionate tourist prices around there!

The accommodation is around the back of the pub and was very good. The pub itself was not the best in Buxton so we went elsewhere. No parking and we got a ticket for parking nearby but the hotel were great when we raised it and compensated us.

Not accessible. Property is old and there are no lifts. Inconvenient to get luggage up and down to the rooms. Parking is a nightmare around the property. Rooms are overpriced for what you get for, would recommend larger, more well-known brands instead.
