The Royal Oak Hotel

If you’re looking for somewhere to stay with your dog(s), I honestly couldn’t recommend this place enough We booked this B&B because it was advertised as dog-friendly, and we (and Frank!) had the best weekend! It was our first trip with our dog (a medium-sized Staffie-cross) and we felt so welcome, right from our arrival. I would agree with some of the other reviews I’ve read, eg that the decor would benefit from an update, but our room was spacious, warm and comfortable. Frank was welcomed in the bar where we had two dinners and two breakfasts, and the food was delicious. Staff were friendly and accommodating, and we loved the cosy atmosphere in the pub. On our second night, we asked if we could bring Frank’s bed into the bar whilst we had dinner, and staff were happy for us to do so. It was an added bonus that it snowed during our visit, and we loved the local walks. We’ve already decided that we’ll stay here the next time we want to visit the Peaks thank you, Royal Oak!

Staff were welcoming. the room itself was disappointing. Filthy, dusty, very unhygienic. Cleaners/staff trying to get in room before check out. Wasn’t shown how to access hotel out of hours and would have been locked out! Leaky radiators!

Room was awful, dirty and dated , bathroom on a big slant, tv size of a postage stamp with only standard 5 chanels. Bar/restaurant looked nice enough but shut just gone nine, thank goodness only there for one night, would definitely not recommend

One of the grubbiest ‘hotels’ I ever stayed in ever. Pleasant staff, good pizzas, clean bedroom and en suite but OMG how grubby. Disgusting carpets throughout, decoration and fittings from the 1970s, burns in my bedroom carpet, solid pillows, sheets and blankets, an all pervading smell of decay. Needs a complete refurb.

Great Location. Lovely room. Good food although misinformed te menu and charged for it. Celing insulation zero woken constantly by people walking above us. Otherwise would have stayed again

Food and service was excellent. The room mold on the aluminium window. Bed linen had red wine stains. Very noisy room children running up and down landing.

The meals we had were delicious; fresh ingredients, and thoughtfully prepared. We were well looked after by the servers, who made sure we had what we needed without being intrusive. It was busy and atmospheric and I would recommended this pub without hesitation.

The worst room ever. It seemed like the room was never cleaned from months. Dust, Hair and stains were all over the place. The bedsheets were dirty. The towels were not clean. This place shouldn't have any guests at all.

We had a 2 night stay room meet all our needs although the shower was a bit tight Food in the restaurant was first class and good value Would we stay here again Yes definitely 👍
