    Nothing really. It is really just a B&B but qualifies as a hotel as there is a small resident's lounge and bar. There is no restaurant but there are lots of places to eat within a five minute walk.

    Spectacular location on Broad Walk next to the Pavilion Gardens. Very good breakfast. Staff made us feel very welcome. We had a room with a view over the park and lake. It is also very convenient for the town centre and the market square.

    Would have liked more hooks or a rail in the bathroom to hang up towels.

    Hotel location was great right on top of the local park. Friendly and welcoming owners/staff. Good location for the town centre shops and restaurants. Very quiet. The room was comfortable. Plenty of choice at breakfast and all cooked to order.

    It had no restaurant or bar but within a short walk there are many eateries. [Our favourite was the Greek restaurant in the centre.] Otherwise everything was fine. We would stay there again

    The hotel overlooks the park and is a short walk along a promenade into the centre of Buxton. The hotel is not modern and has no lift, but it is well maintained, clean, comfortable and friendly. The service was excellent and the breakfasts likewise. Car parking at the rear of the hotel is limited [about 10 spaces] but otherwise can probably we found on the road behind.

    No complaints whatsoever. Read the complaints about Paul the owner. What do people want? He was efficient.

    We wanted a simple bed and breakfast in a convenient location near the town centre for an overnight stay and Westminster Hotel provided this. Huge park opposite which was lovely to sit in in the sunshine. Beds were comfortable, breakfast was unexciting but absolutely no complaints. Parking on site was straightforward but then next day we were able to park easily on road that hotel sited on.

    My main issue is with car parking. Obviously the hotel management has done its best with the space it has, the issues arise with guests inconsiderate parking by not getting in the middle of the lines making it challenging to get into the spaces.

    The cooked breakfast was lovely. It was hot, plenty of choice, served in a timely manner by Sharon who was always friendly and smiley. All the other breakfast items were as expected, usual cereals, fruit juice, yoghurt and fruit all very tasty. The location is ideal for exploring Buxton, with a lovely walk through the park into the centre right on the doorstep.

    The location was excellent for walking into the town, no more than about 12 minutes. The hotel looks over a lovely lake. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice. The room was a little disappointing as there wasn't a wardrobe for hanging clothes, although there was plenty of drawer space, There isn't a lift, we were on the third floor so it was hard work. The most important thing for us is that it was very very clean. It has its own car park which is always good. The staff were all great, efficient , helpful and kind.

    There was a step down in the bathroom which in the night when half asleep could be a bit hazardous.

    The breakfast was superb, Sharon was brilliant. The location was perfect. Value for money.
