I had a mixed experience at the hotel during my recent stay. While the rooms were quiet, clean, and comfortable, the service left something to be desired, especially when it came to addressing issues. The location was convenient for getting around, but the dining experience could have been improved with better options and service speed. Overall, it was decent value for money, but there were notable areas for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff genuinely tried to help, there were issues that need addressing. The breakfast could be better catered for dietary restrictions and the attention to cleanliness outside was lacking, which detracted from an otherwise pleasant stay.

This hotel has a fantastic location near the city center and good access to the Peak District, making it ideal for both business and leisure stays. The rooms are modern and tidy, providing a comfortable experience overall. However, the dining options could be improved, particularly during busy times when the breakfast buffet ran out. While the service was quite pleasant, the air conditioning in the room was a bit too strong for my liking.

The hotel had a convenient location, just a short walk to our event venue, and the rooms were generally clean and spacious. However, there were some issues, such as noise from neighboring rooms and a strong smell in the corridor due to a recent flood. The lack of attention to detail and housekeeping left much to be desired.

During my stay, I found the hotel to be clean and comfortable with a warm welcome. While the breakfast was decent, it lacked variety, especially in terms of hot options like bacon and sausages. The location was central and convenient for exploring the area, but I did encounter some issues with the room size, particularly for a family stay. Overall, it offered good value for money with friendly service and ample amenities.
