About the hotel

Nestled amid rolling hills in the heart of England's beautiful Peak District, this historic residence is located in the elegant spa town of Buxton, opposite the Pavilion Gardens.

Just across a leafy Georgian square from one of the most exquisite opera houses in the country, home of the annual international Gilbert and Sullivan Festival and the Buxton Opera Festival, the Old Hall Hotel is reputed to the oldest hotel in England and one time host to Mary Queen of Scots.

The Old Hall's mellowed walls and many ancient rooms reflect the pedigree of its rich past, yet provide every comfort, cuisine and high technology expected from the best hotels of today.

Writing in 1727, Daniel Defo said, “this is indeed a very special place”, which of course it is, even to this day. Equipped with 2 residents’ lounges, one with a television and the other for quiet relaxation, perhaps with a coffee or a drink, the hotel also contains a concert grand piano complete with parlour palm, though you might have to contend with a very serious soprano practising for the evening's opera performance.

The Old Hall Hotel is the first choice for theatre goers. It provides a well-known pre and post-theatre supper and special theatre-goers’ room tariffs, including theatre tickets. It is a natural setting for a wonderful evening at the opera followed by dinner and a comfortable night's sleep.

Restaurants and Bars

If you are dining from the table d'hote menu in the excellent restaurant, or enjoying the Chef's Special in the popular wine bar, you will appreciate the extra thought and creativity of choice in the menus and wine lists.

The wine bar is open all day and evening for coffee, afternoon tea. It also serves an all-day menu and, very importantly, pre and post-theatre supper. It is very much the haunt for theatre-goers, actors and musicians.

The Cavendish and Talbot rooms are available for private dinner parties and functions.
