The rooms are very tired and shabby in places. It takes a long time for hot water to come through if at all. There is constant noise from extractor fans all night long.

The hotel is extremely convenient to the town and in a beautiful dominant position. Parking is easy and reasonably priced and the staff were polite and helpful. Through circumstances we didn't eat there so cannot comment in regard to food. Only adverse comments are the size of the room - we had to sidle past the bed and the untidy area visible through the window to the rear of the property. Value for money.

Dear William,Thank you for your review and for staying with us a the Palace Hotel. We are glad too hear that you had a wonderful stay, and apologise that the room wasn't up to your standard. We can see that you booked a compact double room, which might be why your room wasn't a bigger size, but we are sorry about the view outside the property. I will send your feedback to the correct team, and thank you again for your stay :)

The building was impressive outside but would benefit from some work and tidying up around the outside seating area. The reception area was quite impressive with very well kept lounge areas with comfy well kept furniture. Loved the chandler and staircases. Our room was quite disappointing in that it was very dated and the furniture was cheap. The mattress certainly required changing for a new one, although the bedding was clean. The bathroom, although quite large, again was very dated. There were exposed water pipes above the basin which were corroding at the bottom. The shower was over the bath and there was no safety handle for anyone who was unsteady on their feet having to stand in the bath to have a shower. I personally do not like showers over baths as it is a safety issue as I well know.

A very impressive building. Bathroom a bit tired looking and taps stiff or leaking but a lovely location in the heart of Buxton. Only real gripe was that I was asked to pay extra for everything. Parking was an extra £5.00, use of the pool Is extra and breakfast was £24 extra! So I ate elsewhere.

Standard room very small window in room opened onto the air conditioning which got very load int the middle off the night waking up with headache. Had to pay for parking even though you was a guest which you would expect to be free also had to pay for pool facilities with all the little extra maybe book a higher rated accommodation but overall enjoyed the weekend in Buxton itself

The hotel in itself was lovely, but seriously lacking in facilities and service. First issue was that we couldn't call the hotel to discuss some needs we had before arriving. No direct telephone to hotel. On arrival we checked in and went to get some drinks only to be told we could not charge anything to room for payment in morning, payment at point of order was required. Later we thought we'd go to the pool for a swim, but there wasn't anyone on pool desk to give us access or take payment, we left after about 20 mins - hotel reception said the duty staff had probably gone to get more towels!!! After a very nice evening out we returned to our room and headed to bed for the night only to be woken up around 1a.m. to a full fire alarm going off. Needless to say we got up and quickly put some clothes on to evacuate the building; on arriving at the staircase to exit building ourselves and a number of other guests found a porter coming up the stairs telling us to go back to bed it's probably someone smoking in their room. Bearing in mind that there are over 100 rooms in this old building we felt this approach from staff was not acceptable and we promptly returned to our room and had a chat about the situation, we felt that our personal safety could be in jeopardy so we chose at around1.30am to pack up our belongings and return home.

Very conveniently placed for walking into Buxton but rooms are totally depressing. Our room, 304, had no working heating and no heating or heated towel rail in the small, cramped bathroom. The lift is grindingly slow. Breakfast was good however and staff friendly. So, convenient, but that's about all.

The whole experience was marred by the extremely uncomfortable bed. It was like sleeping on a wooden plank. It is a shame as the bedroom was spacious and very clean and tidy as was the bathroom. First impressions were poor, I think we drew the short straw with a receptionist who didn't even know the checkout time nor the parking arrangements so our first impression was second rate. The menu for available food reads more like a timetable. Certain foods between certain times e.g. no sandwiches after 5-30. No wonder foreigners think we are a joke. If you want a swim, non of the lockers work. Notice at the door reads if it's raining "please borrow a umbrella" instead of "AN umrella". Drinks menu reads "alcohol free larger" instead of "LAGER". Petty, perhaps but we may as well have it all. Like I said, it's a shame, as with a little attention it could be a wonderful hotel. As it is it's more like Fred Karno's circus. No return visit planned.

Another excellent stay at this beautiful period hotel. It’s like going back in time. The decor of the huge guest recreational areas is so calming, and the restoration of the historic past faultless. Food is of good quality but this area seems a little chaotic to the otherwise effortless running of the rest of the hotel. This is our second visit in March and will definitely be coming back. 👍

Public rooms very nicely decorated, bedroom (116) had its main decor revamped but was let down by some 'shabby' fitments. Main 'gripes' were that the evening meal menu outside the dining room bore no resemblence to the food on offer inside! Although the breakfast buffet was very good. Also, not happy about having to pay for car parking and wi-fi in rooms...

This is the second time I have stayed here and I like it. It has obviously been a grand place in the past and it retains some nice features. With a building like this it is difficult not to notice some little things that need attention. However I have had two of the best nights sleep ever when staying here. The bed was super comfortable and massive. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is extra but that wasn't a big deal and I have paid more for less in other places.

The bathroom was tired and dated, there was a charge to use wifi in the room, there was a charge to park your car in the carpark. There was a charge to use the hotel swimming pool (!). None of this was explained or seemed apparent at time of booking. The receptionist at checkout was just plain rude when asked a question about car parking. I've never left a bad review before and we are really easy going people but I didn't think the price we paid justified all this. The hotel itself is lovely and the other waiting staff were friendly and welcoming.

Absolutely fine stay for the room rate that I paid, was outdated and room was a little chilly so was grateful for blanket and heating in room was decent. All in all, a no frills hotel that could do with a refurb that is in keeping in its time. Cracking location and impressive entrance/lobby. Would absolutely stay again.

Stayed in room 167, tv not tuning into any channels. Phoned hotel up 3 times no answer. Went down to reception phoned again and it was only when i pressed the bell did a young lad came out the back saying he just heard it. He changed our room straight away to room 54. It took nearly 10 mins for hot water to come through to the bath. On the plus side tv was working. No wifi in room unless you pay, its 2024 move with the times! Expensive breakfast at £12 on the day you arrive or £15 the morning you decide to have it. Better to go 5 mins into Buxton and use a local cafe.

Was okay but a few things we were disappointed with: 1. WiFi is chargeable per day and you have to pay per device. That means every phone in your party. Since mobile reception was pretty poor in the area, this seemed cynical. 2. The gym was also extra (as were the rest of the health facilities) but the wording of the booking implies it is included (no mention of extra charges). 3. You have to request housekeeping. Whilst I understand this is probably to reduce waste and cost, would have been nice for the check-in team to point that out. Returning to your room in the evening to discover you are still out of the basics is a bit frustrating. The point is that those things are included in almost all other hotels so it’s a bit of a surprise and a gotcha.

Not a four star stay!
Not really a 4* experience. We’d decided to gloss over some of the failings …. even probably the worst view we’ve ever had. However, staff attitude can make a poor or average stay a good stay. One rude member of staff can also let the rest of the team down. The hotel obviously has a problem with the room card entry system …. and no, the card wasn’t kept anywhere near my phone!!

This is a very grand old building and a really enjoyable place to stay. It has some areas that could do with a bit of mending and if that kind of thing is really important to you it might affect your view. I was in a standard double and the facilities were great the bed was very comfortable and massive. We had a meal in the evening which was very good and reasonably priced. The big plus was the staff. There were not very many in the hotel but they were very helpful and friendly. Overall an enjoyable stay in a grand old hotel that could do with some love. Again staff were a massive plus point. Well done guys.
