The hotel was calm, quiet and intimate. Staff were polite, pleasant and helpful. The room had a nice outlook and a balcony. The room itself was comfortable and spacious. Breakfast was enjoyable.

In general the hotel needs updating. The outside of the building’s in particular. Some areas are run down, needing painting or repairs, TLC.

Im a lido fan so for me to swim daily in. The spring fed lido was a big highlight.

Okay but slightly disappointed
Pros:

The staff were helpful and friendly

Cons:

Limited food menu for dinner. We had the bed and breakfast, dinner rate! Very few choices. The hotel needs a little attention. Looking a bit dated. It is not very accessible at all. I know it’s a listed building but some basic changes such as having a toilet on the same level as the bar/restaurant is a must. My mother really struggled with the 10 steps. There is a cloakroom /storage room which could be converted or a stair lift added.

Nice comfy bed, in Matlock, everything else was bad
Pros:

Location was nice

Cons:

Had little option for breakfast and dining area was a mess, spa didn’t look nice or clean (overpriced aswell), “garden view room with balcony” building looked a mess and could pass as a council flat building, windows need a good clean. I feel like we were completely ripped off!

Pros:

Very helpful and accommodating staff, particularly Simran. Lovely traditional hotel with potential to be spectacular. Reasonable price

Cons:

Some areas looking rather tired. In rooms more attention needs to be given to general cleaning, walls, skirting etc, although beds and bathrooms spotless. A lift or stair lift needs, to be put in place asap.
