Staff were very friendly and location is brilliant for exploring Buxton. Hotel is a little creaky and wonky, but this is to be expected for one of the oldest hotels in the country! Breakfast was good and we were sat in the bar as we had a dog with us. Would definitely recommend for a stay in Buxton!

Lovely big room, with a view of The Slopes. Breakfast was okay. Hot buffet. The lift is handy, but you're dependant on other guests closing the inner door fully or you can't call it...... For a Champneys brand hotel, very disappointing bathroom toiletries available (20ml tubs of basic items.... we had Elemis when we stayed at Mottram Hall, also Champneys)...... Lovely, historic building. We failed to see any ghosts.......

The hotel feels very in need of renovation. It's not old as in a historic place, it's old as in rundown and scruffy. It looks like a sense of pride has been lost and even the cleaning is neglected. The bathroom was dirty, the mattress was old, unsupportive and uncomfortable. While most of the staff were great, they seemed overstretched. Reception was unattended with a 'back soon' sign every time. The lift didn't work. There was virtually nothing available for breakfast despite them knowing about dietary requirements for months in advance and them even making a courtesy call a week in advance to check. Overall, a highly disappointing stay, not worth the money, and I definitely won't stay there again.

Parking right outside. Alistair(?) on reception was a FONT of knowledge and very friendly. Room was really lovely, great big windows to look out to the park. Towels and linen were as perfectly acceptable. Dinner was an unexpected treat. We had the ham chop and duck dishes. Breakfast was standard included buffet breakfast.

This is a quirky hotel steeped in history which me and my husband loved. On arrival our room was not suitable for our needs, this could have been avioded if i had called head ofour stay. The receptionist and alastair massey were fantastic and offered fantastic alternative room within minutes and this was beyond my expectations as it had a four poster bed and very large. This made our stay so much better and we had a fantastic break. Thank you to all.

We stayed here for one night when we went to the theatre. The hotel being only a stone thrown from the theatre and town centre made it a great choice. All areas of hotel were clean as was our room. We were very happy with our pre theatre meal and buffet Breakfast. All staff were helpful and we will certainly stay at The Old Hall again.

Excellent location right in the centre of Buxton. We were attending a concert in Opera House which is about 200 yards away from the venue. There were several excellent bars and restaurants within close proximity. Room was clean and functional with decent breakfast in the morning. Would stay again if visiting the area.
