Great looking hotel, great buffet breakfast. Hotel a bit shabby in places and it needs some money spent on it. No air con in the rooms (or at least the room we had) More

Lots to say about this hotel so I shall try to be brief: The good points: Huge rooms, high ceilings all very different not identikit modern stuff, these had CHARACTER. For example our en-suite bathroom was a quaint 4' x 17'. You don't get that everyday.....And my mother-in laws single room was huge by normal standards. Beds were wonderfully comfy... More

The Palace Hotel is located in the centre of Buxton next to Buxton railway station ideally situated for travellers. First impression of the Hotel is that it looks very grand but first impressions can be very deceiving. The food is poor and arrives cold to the table. I have been to the Palace Hotel on a number of occassions to... More

The hotel was in a good location. The clock didn't keep us awake even though we slept at the front on the 1st floor. Buffet breakfast was excellent with a good choice and the option of asking for things on the menu but not part of the buffet. As we stayed with a group we had evening meal. This was... More

Ive stayed in a few of the Barcelo hotels before and booked this stay as part of a promotion. This hotel however is not in keeping with the others by a long way I'd booked a massage for my partner however we were called and asked to bring the appointment forward as one of the team had gone home sick....

Btilliant location and right next to the train station. Great room on the 3rd floor, which was so quiet. Room very nice and very clean. Breakfast was lovely - buffet style with choice of cereals, juices (even bucks fizz which really impressed us), cooked breakfast, cold meats and cheese, a good selection of fresh fruit, and breads, pastries and toast...

It was a pleasure to take a glimpse into Buxton's past in this monument of a hotel. Conjuring images of past times when it was probably bursting with life. Although quite basic and peeling a little here and there, the Palace invites one to imagine its Victorian past. From a facilities point of view it is reasonably clean and comfortable,... More

This was the second time we stayed at Buxton Palace. The first time we had problems with a noisy room followed by another 2 room changes before being given an acceptable room. We like Buxton and thought we would return and give Buxton Palace another chance, having stayed at a few other Barcelo hotels which we have found first class.... More

We stayed on a three night break, B & B with dinner on first two nights - £314 + £3 per night for parking. Our room was o.k, but a bit dismal, fairly clean, bathroom was fine with loads of hot water. Flat screen T.V, tea/coffee making with biscuits. Dinner was enjoyable, well presented and plentiful helpings, very grand dining... More

The welcome on our arrival was warm and friendly, with plenty of information for our stay. We were situated on the 3rd floor, in a double room with en suite (which was large enough to have swung a few cats around!!) The lift was tempremental, which added to the charm. The decor is tasteful and will appeal to some more... More
