Very friendly staff and liked the decor and feel of the hotel
The staff were very friendly and happy to help. The location of the hotel was fantastic for all local amenities and attractions. Parking was very easy to access.
Room was nice. On top floor and no lift. Plenty of parking. The owner was nice and helpful. Probably needs more help as on his own. Would stay again as nice and clean and within walking distance of centre.
Very friendly good quality affordable room for one night. Up in the attic but the double room was big enough and the bathroom a very good size. Value for money and a good location
Nice clean hotel with a nice ambiance. We only stayed one night as easy walk to town to see the boat illuminations which was perfect. We had a room at the top floor. Compact but practical for the price and one night.
Didnt have breakfast, had a comfy room which was quite large, comfy bed, plenty of sockets next to the bed . Very powerful shower, and warm .
Plenty of tea and coffee, and lovely soft towels, lovely stay for the night

Room was clean and nicely presented. The staff were very polite and pleasant and tried hard to get things right, but were fairly new, so struggled with some things a bit.
Very easy check in very helpful staff .
Will return.

I know Matlock Bath well and have stayed locally a couple of times. I’d seen High Tor but never considered it. I know regret this as it was really rather good. The room was well-appointed with all mod cons including a fab shower in the en-suite.
We dined out but probably should have eaten in as the breakfast was absolutely delicious. Access was easy and the parking more than adequate.
Eaay to find.
Good safe parking area.
Friendly efficient staff.
Room small but clean.
Room well decorated.
Good shower
Toilet ran after flushing.
Door to bathroom dudnot open fully and i stubbed my toe in the night.
Great value
Parking area was fine except for a few who parked outside the marked areas and made exiting difficult. Room was comfortable, one chair had wobbly legs and didn't feel safe otherwise fine. We did not have breakfast so can't comment on it. Staff were very friendly and helpful

Disliked: Staff & service
The cleaners did not do our room. The price of the room was expensive given breakfast was not included. Staff were pleasant.
Very nice room with a lovely comfy bed and big bath tub. The mechanism to raise the bath plug was broken through so I had to dig my nails in around the plug to lift it up to get it to drain. could have done with more hooks to hang outside coats and towels. But very good lighting and it was nice to have a few mirrors.
The car park needs some repairs - the stone wall on the descent has fallen down making it a bit tricky to drive down before joining the main road again. We were in a small car so managed but bigger cars could get damaged. there is also an abandoned silver car in the carpark - mouldy windows and flat tyres - which makes the car park look unsafe
Oct 25 - We stayed for the illuminations/fireworks in Matlock Bath. The hotel is an easy 5-10 walk into Matlock Bath. So location is great
We stayed in room 14 a superior room. It's in the eves of the hotel with quite low beams.
The bed was round which was a suprise but comfy.
There was a good TV and coffee/ tea making facilities.
The bathroom was very open, the shower is over the biggest bath ever however it has no shower curtain or shower door, so the floor gets soaked.
The toilet is also not in a private room which was odd. There are walls but it is not enclosed.
We all need some privacy!!
Apart from a few cobwebs the room was clean and big.
It was a shame that breakfast wasn't included, so we ate elsewhere.
On the whole a nice hotel
This was as a very last minute trip. Managed to find this hotel at a decent price so we could visit friends nearby. The room was lovely, a mixture of traditional with some quirky updates. We didn't spend very long in the hotel so cannot really comment on the food or service but good for us.
Clean and immaculately presented room. Shame the blinds in the bedroom and the heating didn’t work, although an electric heater was provided which was very efficient. Breakfast was delicious although needs to be booked in advance (not made clear to me). No dinner was served apart from snacks at the bar, but there are many good places to eat out in Matlock. The one man on reception was very helpful and friendly, although the hotel did feel like a bit of a ghost ship. Good location only 10 to 15 minutes from Matlock or Matlock Bath.
