No complaints Nice place, pleasant people. Food was good, car park is about 100 yards up the road which is really steep! One space for each room though so can always get parked even if it is a bit tight. Room was big and comfortable. Only thing I would offer as a bit of constructive criticism is that the breakfast room needed some music. It was too quiet which makes for an awkward silence when there’s several tables. ##### Andy Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 20 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff were very friendly, food was lovely and room was very comfortable ##### Susan Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samantha 19 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was our 19th wedding anniversary and a last minute booking.

We were welcomed a lovely lady on check in who told us all we needed to know. I took a climb up iron steps to a cliff top garden and the view was amazing. The interior decor is so museum like but at the same time homely. The heating came home at the right times so we never felt cold. The different types of breakfasts we had both mornings were faultless and served by attentive and friendly staff. The hotel itself is situated ideally for the shops cafes and not forgetting the Arcades. I recomend this place to anybody who wants a quiet break. We are already planning our return in a few months time. Thankyou to all the staff of The Hodgkinsons hotel. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7FF6427D6B758C4F077E40A29F9791C8D662143E1713703028034.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98B22250D2842DC7C4BF47AD477B535BCB151D6C1713703028814.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3B60DA0996F377A8ED9889B17AEFD06C039A67311713703029055.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F0F509F9F9E2EBD6A26F942E463958F5F5F9E0D11713703028038.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Stuart Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ann 2 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Loved the old building, our room, the friendly helpfulness of the staff..Also, the convenience of the location. A little disappointed that TV in room didn't work despite our re-tuning. It seemed to be an aerial problem. Additionally one of bedside lights wouldn't come on. These are not complaints just observations so that they can be put right for next room occupant. We did report them at the end of our stay. ##### Ann Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barry 19 Sept 2025 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Very well kept hotel with great ambience. Clean and comfortable room excellent breakfast and good host would definitely come again. ##### Barry Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elaine 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hotel, location and staff The hotel is in a lovely building, retaining original features with the café area displaying some original items such as the cash register from 1882. The room key is also a traditional type which I liked. The room had a lovely original fireplace and very comfy bed. The pillows were so comfy I checked the label so I could get some for home. The breakfast was great, all good quality ingredients and well cooked. The scrambled egg was especially delicious! The hotel has parking spaces available at the top of the hill next to the hotel. Note the hill is quite steep and may not be walkable for people who are less mobile, however there is also parking on the main street. The hotel is in the middle of the main street and easily walkable to the main attractions, shops, bars and restaurants. ![Traditional style room key](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4da34ce8-36dd-4eab-b578-38e76a455be2-1754907436786.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![1882 cash register](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/da1d4e42-33a3-42bd-8884-bdeeba571d46-1754907436941.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Front of hotel, you can just see the hill to the right which leads to the parking](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f47d2a37-cbe6-468a-9655-70fc598651c2-1754907436823.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Elaine Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mr 3 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Marvelous Matlock Great greeting on arrival.
