The hotel is steeped in history and therefore a little bit quirky. The rooms are all different so difficult to generalise but our room was nicely furnished with a good size bathroom but no bath only a large shower. The hotel is very central and offer 24 hours parking for £3 from the (friendly) reception. The breakfasts are seriously good... More

If you are looking for a modern hotel with mirrors & glass then read no further this hotel is definitely not for you. This is alleged to be the oldest hotel inthe UK dating back to the 1500's. It is a quirky hotel with atmosphere and character. We arrived at 1pm on a Sunday & took half an hour to... More

It is always a pleasure to stay at The Old Hall. We love it so much that we have booked Christmas. It has a lovely welcoming atmosphere and you can come and go as you savour the delights of Buxton (and the theatre).

Just catching up on writing reviews. Stayed at the Old Hall about 3 times in 2012. Travel on Business, so work always book hotels, so I never know what I will get until I get there. First time at the Old Hall I got a nice large room that was very comfortable. Next 2 times I was not as lucky... More

We arrived at the Old Hall Hotel, in not the best weather conditions but were warmly welcomed by the very friendly staff. We stayed in room 45 which was an executive room, it was beautiful and full of character, spotlessly clean. We had a meal in the restaurant in the evening which was really lovely, beautifully cooked and served by... More

Lovely hotel in fantastic spot, breakfast was wonderful,although the old lady who took our order was a bit pushy (calm down dear). Obviously this is a very old hotel but full of interesting pictures and info.

We took my Mum there for a night before her 89th birthday and what a lovely OLD hotel. Rooms were immaculate, old beds and we were next to the Queen Anne suite...very historical! loved the creaky floors. Rooms were immaculate and bedding crisp cotton sheets. Dinner and breakfast very good. Liked all the history in cabinets in the entrance hall.

Old Hall is true it is old and has many quirks to it, creaking staircases, tiny uneven doors, tudor history (Queen Mary of Scots stayed there) but as a hotel it is tired and in need of a make over. Daft things let it down like bulbs blown that aren't changed, broken chairs, dripping taps, torn wallpaper, scuffed paintwork.....all TLC... More
