Quaint pub with bags of character!
Pros:

Quaint pub with loads of character! Very welcoming staff.

Cons:

Breakfast in the pub down the road was somewhat haphazard in approach after a busy night with the football the night before perhaps!

Overall pleasant. Nice hot shower with good water pressure. WiFi and mobile signal useable and tea/coffe/biscuit
Pros:

How clean and quaint it was.

Cons:

Pillows were hard and unfortunate for me I had quiz night and I could hear them over the microphone up to 23:15hrs.


TV was in the most awkward of places making viewing for one person laying on the bed (no chairs to sit on as the room was just enough for the bed) not great

Also, meals and breakfast were in another pub 100 metres down the hill.

Lovely boutique hotel - would stay again.
Pros:

Beautiful Derbyshire pub located in an old part of Glossop opposite a church. Idylic. 15 min walk or 2 min taxi from the train station with views of the surrounding hills. Pure England!

Cons:

10am checkout time is just wrong.

Prima en fijn.
Pros:

Mooie locatie. Fijne plek.

Cons:

Helaas pech, die avond was het restaurant gesloten en alle drie de andere eetgelegenheden ook in Old Glossop. Omdat we met de fiets waren dus ook niet zo makkelijk verder weg kunnen gaan eten.

Welcoming, comfortable, clean, great location for splitting Pennine Way Stage 1 in half.
Pros:

We were in Glossop to walk, and staff were able to offer helpful bits of information.
Room was spacious, comfortable and clean, with everything we needed.
Breakfast was prompt and tasty. Landlady was really welcoming.
Free public carpark just across the road, which was a bonus, we had been worried about being able to park.

The pub was just what we needed for our stay. The only down side was the breakfast was down the road
Pros:

The breakfast was lovely.

Cons:

We were lucky the weather was dry. If it was raining I would not want to walk down for breakfast.

Would have been exceptional if breakfast had been within the venue and the sitting tenant had been more considerate.
Pros:

Nice room well presented. Good location.

Cons:

Breakfast was served at a partner pub a walk away.
The tenant above our room (1) had either the television or radio playing loudly until 1am then again at 6am sleeping was no an option. Not what I’d expected after such a long journey from Kent at £115.00 a night! Still waiting to hear from the manager after sending a report!
