Loved the decor of the hotel, we stayed in Calke room. Hotel chosen as situated within easy walk to Heights of Abraham event we'd booked. The hotel's Restaurant wasnt fully operational but this is shown on their website. Some hot food was available though Fri & Sat evening and we had very tasty meals. But there are loads of other eateries nearby. Good choices for breakfast as well. All in all we had great weekend with lots to do in the area. We enjoyed the live music at Fish Pond pub short walk along the road also. Would strongly recommend.

Travelled as a couple on weekend break for Matlock illuminations. Hotel has an excellent location, parking(although up a very steep if short incline). It’s an old building, so floors bit uneven but decorated in accordance with its period, so beautiful if that’s your thing as it was ours. If you want the sameness offered by a Hilton, then go to one, this hotel is unique, you can see it immortalised on photos we saw in the Heights of Abraham exhibition from the 1800/1900’s . We had a fabulous stay, staff were lovely, welcoming and their evening menu was delicious, as was breakfast. We will be coming back. Still so much to see in the Derbyshire area, so why not stay here.

The hotel is full of character. The room “Calke” was small but absolutely perfect for us. Being at the back of the property it was very quiet even on a Bank Holiday Sunday. Breakfast was excellent, with loads of choices. Amelia, the receptionist/manager was delightful, helpful and cheerful in every way. In fact all the staff were wonderful. We’d absolutely return.

Friendly, comfortable and well presented

The room was well presented and very spacious. This room is on the top floor but the climb is worth it and keeps your daily step count up. The breakfast service was excellent and the staff helpful and attentive.

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.

Always friendly and comfortable

Whenever I say at Hodgkinson's it is very welcoming - the hosts are very friendly and the breakfasts are all you could wish for - with lots of choice. There are great views of the life along the Matlock Bath road but the rooms are double glazed so not noisy. Tea/coffee in the rooms along with water and a very decent price. - Always clean.
