Elegant old building in great location in Buxton but needs a lot of money spent on it the gym area needs a lot of repair also which you are charged extra to use as with parking never tried the food so can’t comment staff seemed friendly enough but to keep a massive old hotel like this ship shape takes a lot of investment that I’m not sure Britannia chain will plough in the money that’s needed
