The bars and toilets are also on the ground floor and there is plenty of seating.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The whole hotel is light and airy with high ceilings and some impressive decor. And a conservatory. And the longest continuous wrought-iron bannister in Britain, or was it Europe? And possibly a ghost. There is a swimming and gym\/spa facilities&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Buxton itself is a thermal spa town, with lots of interesting buildings and places to visit for those who wish to venture outside the hotel. These include the Opera House, the Devonshire Dome (once the largest unsupported dome in the world), a restored Georgian crescent and the ornamental Pavilion Gardens. There are supermarkets nearby (Waitrose, Sainsburys Local) and plenty of caf\u00e9s and restaurants.

Rates include breakfast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Standard room: rates are \u00a3126 per night for a Double or Twin room (i.e. \u00a363 per person with two people sharing).<br>Single rooms are \u00a378pp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Executive room: rates are \u00a3146 a Double or Twin room (i.e. \u00a373<br>per person with two people sharing)<br>Single rooms are \u00a398pp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To reserve a room call central booking <strong>0333 323 1574<\/strong> and use the code <strong>NOVA051126<\/strong> to get our rates. This number is available 8am &#8211; 8:30pm, Monday &#8211; Friday, 9am &#8211; 5:30pm Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Please note that&nbsp;we ran out of rooms last year so book early. They are already running low on twin rooms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disabled Access<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main entrance has a few steps. Alternatively, there is<br>ramp access at the rear of the hotel for those with difficulty with<br>steps. This is on the left-hand side of the hotel as you face it, near<br>the Leisure Centre. If arriving by car, there are car parking spaces<br>near to that entrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The door next to the entrance to the bar can be used as the disabled access and takes people along the corridor rather than through the kitchen area which was the previous route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reminder or for those who haven\u2019t been before, the hotel has<br>a lift, but as it is an old hotel some of the rooms are on \u201cmezzanine\u201d<br>levels and still involve a few steps, so if this will cause you<br>difficulties, please let the hotel know in advance and they\u2019ll do their<br>best to accommodate you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyone with mobility requirements should call the hotel on<strong> 01298<br>767000<\/strong> and use the option 2.
