Guest Reviews
I have stayed at the Old Hall Hotel in uxton a number of times over the years and every time I stay ther I get less ennamored with it. I am in my late 70's as is my lady who has mobility problems but yet again we found orselves dragging luggage up two flights of stairs - no lift, no offer of help. When we got to our room, which was OK for a one night stay it struck me that if there was a fire in the main stairwell or it was smoke filled you would be in serious trouble. Maybe there is an alternative that I missed. I think the Old Hall is aging faster than me. It seems to be getting more and more tired but it is dammed convenient for the Opera House.
Breakfast excellent. Location excellent. Beautiful hotel but very tired.
Dirty entrance , no tv available in room because no remote control. Staff couldn’t care less when reported and very offhand and unhelpful.
Amazing location
Great breakfast
Check in took 20mins as the hotel did not have our booking from booking.com the staff were great but it just took time to resolve.
The hotel is well situated for the train station , opera house, and attractions in Buxton. The staff are helpful and friendly. The room was spacious, clean and the beds were very comfortable. The bathroom was clean, towels were good quality and the toiletries were nice. A good tea tray was provided.
Breakfast room was clean, food good & service good.
Hotel is looking very tired inside, carpets in need of a clean, bedroom has wall paper coming away.
The staff reacted well at a problem that occurred on our stay and moved us to an alternative room.
We would have preferred more choice on the dinner menu especially as it was the same for both nights of our stay. The lift was old and temperamental.

Res
Staff were all friendly.
Reception is a nice window but the poor receptionist is sat at a grim office desk a couple of metres distant.
Champney’s took it over in December 2025, and there’s mention of refurbishment, but no sign that it’s happening. It’s a hotel of many carpets that need cleaning.
Pretty dire. The rooms must have been renumbered, because Room 10 doesn’t have a great view anymore - just internal facing, overlooking skylight and unkempt rooftop. The curtains didn’t fill the window and a gap at the bottom of the room door let in light from the corridor. A door on the wardrobe had to be wedged shut. Cobwebs on the ceiling.
It’s one thing to be getting on with refurbishment. But in the meantime..no water in the room, a minimal drinks tray, and a breakfast buffet with cheap orange juice direct from the carton, sausage with gristle, congealing beans. Ketchup and cheap jam in pudding bowls.
Conveniently situated.
The hotel is okay,but could really do with some sort of makeover.Rather tired.
Good location.
Evening meal was cancelled due to unforseen circumstances.
Wonderful food and staff. Ruth was great and very friendly. She couldnt do enough to help us. Very busy in the bar with lots going on with only ruth serving them all who never stopped smiling and laughing with all the tables ( even when we saw her later on in the hotel round corner when she was working there after serving us which we found out was ran by the same people champneys) A real asset to the old hall.
Perfect location to see the town but not the easiest place to park. The Hotel has so much history (it is not modern) and has a really nice feel to it. Great value for money although I would recommend eating out and relishing the first class breakfast which was wonderful - extra points for the Marmite !!! - and outstanding service from Alastair and his team.
