Good value slightly austere B&B, well situated for the town centre. The room was small but spotlessly clean, as was the bathroom. No frills but a large sitting room with an honesty bar, which added a nice touch. Breakfast was your standard b&b offering, but at least they had Earl Grey tea. Staff friendly and helpful.

Stayed here for one night as we were here to see a concert at the opera house. It's location is ideal for anyone wishing to stay in Buxton for this purpose. The room we stayed in was quite large, average sized double bed which was a bit on the soft side but ok, bathroom very small with tired looking shower... More

Last minute booking for a business trip. Chose the hotel based on price and location, and pleasantly surprised. A small family run hotel, and were great right from the start. I was setting off late so wouldn't arrive until 11pm, and they had no problems making sure someone was there to let me in. Lots of on-site parking, room very... More

We stayed for 3 nights at the Westminster in mid March. It was clean, comfortable and with a good breakfast. The room had a small en-suite but the shower was pitifully weak and the towels, although clean, were rather small. The location was great and parking was on site. Apparently licensed, there were no staff to buy drinks from had... More

I have just booked a return visit to this hotel having stayed for a theatre trip recently. The hotel is in a fantastic location with just a short very pleasant walk to Opera House and eateries. Unlike some of the other reviewers we loved the breakfast, freshly cooked and served with a smile. Yes it is a bit tired but... More

A bit dissapointing but it did the job, we went to the Opera House for a concert and it was convienient, Lovely building but very tired looking inside. Breakfast was not the best. Would stay again if we where going to another concert but would try somewhere else first.

We stayed here in December as part of a trip to Derbyshire. We were greeted on arrival by the owner who was very helpful and gave us some good recommendations for dinner. The hotel is beautiful and wonderfully located. We were on the top floor and had a great view of the lake. Room itself felt slighlty tired and could... More

Would definatley stay again but would book a room on the front as our room was very small with no view.We did book way in advance but perhaps all the other rooms were already taken. The... More
