Top Bakewell Hotel Reviews

Delta Hotels by Marriott Breadsall Priory Country Club

8/10 Good

"Good hotel with good staff. Food for dinner and breakfast was also good. Family room was a little small but sufficient. Very quirky layout but to be expected given the age and type of property (which is well stated on websites)."

Shrigley Hall Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely spa hotel. Nice room comfy bed and great shower. Booked twilight spa, the Outdoor pool amazing and spa cafe serving a great choice of food and drinks. The rear of the hotel is a little tatty but don’t let this put u off. Some reviews don’t reflect its positives. Breakfast lovely and lots of choice. Would definitely return"

The Rutland Arms Hotel, Bakewell, Derbyshire

10/10 Excellent

"Charming lodging in the center of Bakewell with easy walking everywhere. Great breakfast available."

Palace Hotel & Spa Buxton

8/10 Good

"The reception staff were very friendly and helpful when asking for additional pillows ( only 1 pp provided). The breakfast was good and tasty and plenty of attentive staff if needed. The hotel rooms however are very tired with very poor decor standards. Tiles in the bathroom were miss-matched and grubby and flooring lifting in places. Was surprised to have to pay £5 to park the car as a resident though"
