A characterful property with a warm and comfortable atmosphere and excellent service. Location is perfect affording great and unspoilt views of dovedale, makes an ideal base for walkers. Would definitely recommend.
Peter, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hotel is in a fantastic location. If you’re expecting modern and contemporary then think again. It’s an old building but the staff are very nice and it has character.
alison, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Setting & scenery fantastic, the rest pretty poor. While the bar staff were attentive other staff were poor failing to provide basic information (like where to eat - the restaurant was shut) & showing little interest in doing their job or being attentive to residents. Breakfast was the poorest I've ever experienced in terms of quantity & quality. No croissants, pastries, fresh fruit. Yoghurt reused for a second breakfast after being left out in the heat on our first day. Had to ask for bread & hot food to be replenished. On checking out was told we owed money despite paying in advance & the hotel operating a pay as you go policy which meant food & drink had to be paid for when ordered/consumed. Giving the hotel 2/5 is being generous.

Peak Place

Excellent breakfast, friendly staff, terrific location. Clean, tidy room that could do with a refurb. Very hard bed! Close to hill walks as well as Dovedale and The Tissington TrAil

10/10 Excellent

This property is 1st class, staff are so friendly and the food is amazing. Rooms are spotless and we enjoyed the wonderful hill views. We'll be visiting again next time we're in the Peaks
Malcolm, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Great location for an hotel. Probably severely understaffed. Man on reception went off with another couple to sell them a room without even acknowledging me. Another guy turned up, said he was new manager. I asked about the fishing. He said there was no fishing!!! First man came back and showed him the day tickets and pointed me in general direction of the river and pointed me up the stairs to my room. When it came to check out there was nobody on reception. He seemed to be cooking the breakfast and didn’t appear when asked. A chambermaid took my payment for the fishing. The room had been paid for in advance via Expedia which seemed to flummox them. The room was ok but the shower screen leaked all over the floor (room 15). As for the fishing, this was challenging and not helped by the dogs and people in the river on the far bank where there is a footpath. Not worth the £40 it cost. I don’t think I’ll be hurrying back which is a shame.

Such a beautiful and relaxing setting. A quiet ambient indoor setting to and furnished well. The food was adequate at breakfast and the evening meal was good. An improvement would be better quality pillows as the ones provided where flat and uncomfortable.
