On arrival reception staff very polite and professional, room 330 was next to carpark
On opening the door the radio and fan was on which made it feel very relaxing, the room was beautiful well decorated and inviting.
I didn’t expect it to be as nice as it was dog friendly.
Really good sleep in massive comfortable bed . Very quiet.
Very pleased with our stay and look forward to returning as is Stanley our labarador , he also had a great stay.

First the positives. Helpful cheerful staff and good facilities: dining room and bar were nicely decorated and set out. The food served at breakfast was very good. Location of hotel is perfect for exploring Bakewell town centre, which is beautiful.
Negatives. We had a room in the annexe across the road. The car parking for the hotel is a bit limited: so first come, first served. This annexe room would have been fine in autumn, but in a heatwave (25 degrees Celsius outside) it was essentially an oven with a window. A fan had been left on but was shifting hot air around the room. Sleeping was difficult as the bed wasn't very comfortable. Shower and bath were fine however. Breakfast service was slow, both in taking the order, 15 minutes after coffee and juice supplied, and 30 minutes to bring the food orders. But as I said before, food was very good. So taking all these factors into consideration: 3 stars.

We loved the individuality of the environment in the hotel with all of the decor in the rooms, especially the restaurant. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast had excellent choices and were beautifully cooked and presented. The evening meals were equally lovely. It has a nice outside seating area where you can enjoy a drink and a meal. The car parking was great, just across the road.
The only negative aspect we had was our room was on the top floor in the main hotel and because of the heatwave there was no air conditioning in the room so it was really difficult to sleep.

The room was advertised as cosy which we assumed meant pokey and so it was. Two people could just operate in most of it. Bathroom and shower the same. No sir I but fan, no lifts.
Very poor value for money.
Situated in the middle of Bakewell with limited parking and a lot of traffic noise during the day but much quieter at night.
Public rooms are mostly high ceilinged and spacious although furniture and decoration did not really reflect the true character of this old inn.

The good features: Without exception the staff were pleasant, competent and really wanted to please. Everything clean and bed comfortable. We were fortunate in that twice we found the last available car parking spot. Others could easily be less lucky.

Food: We only had breakfast. Coachman’s full English was a bit mean at £16 but only half a tomato and one medium sized mushroom. Nicely cooked and presented. The mashed avocado was served on a slice of sourdough bread that was so stale that it could not be cut with the knife provided. Very poor value for £16. Coffee ok and nice but cold croissants.

The room was so hot that we couldn’t sleep. Although we hadn’t checked if there was air conditioning, it is hard to justify the room prices when the room temperature does not drop below 30 degrees all night.

The real asset to this lovely old hotel is its staffing . Friendly and warm . Helpful at all times .
The food is really very good - had a memorable roast dinner and a tasty breakfast. The only downsides are the outside windows at the courtyard need painting . And the room was hot but a fan was provided . It can get a little noisy as it’s right in the epicentre of Bakewell but don’t let it out you off . Very dog friendly and plenty of places to walk your pooch .

The rooms were very clean and modern but small. Room 404 has problems connecting with the internet due its location possibly (corner room in the courtyard rooms across the street), but the other room we had in the middle was good. The car park is way too small for the amount of guests, people were double parking. The hotel food was nice. You must try the Bakewell pudding of course, it was lovely. The hotel had tea, coffee and hot chocolate in the room with biscuits. The staff were very kind and helpful. The location is excellent, right in the middle of Bakewell town. Chatsworth House was only 12 minutes by car. Haddon Hall only 3 minutes by car. Lyme Park only 45 minutes by car with some lovely Peak District views on the way.

Nice touches like a coffee machine and water complimentary. The king bed was comfy. Breakfast was a good selection, quality items, and cooked items (eggs and salmon) were excellent.

Service was a bit haphazard due to being understaffed. Liam (Mansger?) seemed to be jack of all trades and helping out where possible. But disappointed at being called darling all the time by a member of reception staff. Bed very hard and pillows very hard too. Mentioned to Liam at checkout to be told that they have feather pillows! Nowhere in the room did it say that other pillows were available. Overall - very disappointing for the money (£180) but I’m guessing you are paying a premium to be near (ish) to Chatsworth.

Lovely comfortable stay , helpful staff , food and beverages excellent . Delightful and welcoming .

Car park is tiny and a bit tight . So parking is an extra cost to consider , if you have to use the overnight / long term car park in Bakewell

The hotel is well situated in the centre of Bakewell, only stayed for one night in a classic room (the basic) which was large, clean and comfortable. We had dinner in hotel restaurant the evening menu was a bit limited for me (I’m a fussy eater) but the food was good, breakfast was excellent good variety on continental and freshly cooked hot breakfast and the dining room staff were friendly and helpful. All together I have no complaints

Lovely hotel. We were in the extra building as we wanted low floor. We arrived and were lucky to get a parking space. Easy to get the permit from reception. Breakfast gorgeous. Only downside for me was that the pillows were too hard and no option of a soft fluffy pillow

Relaxing stay

Lovely comfortable hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful. Lots of space with three dining areas to choose from. Informal bar to a more formal dining room. Breakfasts were good, served hot and freshly cooked. We were across the road in an annexe but this really didn't matter at all.

Lovely Hotel, in a lovely town, but we were across the road in a tiny, ground floor room with no air-con.
The staff are great, the Hotel itself is lovely, breakfast is great, Bakewell is great.
But the lion's share of £200 for our room was over the top

The Rutland arms is dead centre in the midfle of Bakewell, great views of the town and easy to walk from.
Great for people watching as its pretty busy.
The staff were approachable and efficient, especially the waiting staff.
The whole experience was lovely, as was the room. Will be definitely visiting again.

Short break in Bakewell

Generally very good for everything, just room for improvement in a couple of areas;
No elevator and lots of stairs to drag your suitcase up and down.
Bathroom really small, shower in bath tub and very cramped using the toilet.

Lovely hotel

Excellent, welcoming and knowledgeable service by all staff across the hotel. Comfortable room. Car parking spaces at a premium so get there early. Situated on a busy roundabout in the centre so daytime was noisy but it was quiet at night and you were on the spot for all Bakewell has to offer. Meal in the restaurant was fantastic and the main hotel decor was lovely with lots of places to sit. Would definitely stay again.
