Beautiful hotel in the centre of Bakewell

We stayed for 2 nights at The Rutland Arms. Overall a great hotel. Parking at the hotel is very limited so you need to arrive at just the right time to get in their car park (between 11am-12pm). Otherwise you need to park in public car park nearby, which are plentiful and only charge £1 for overnight parking. The food & service were brilliant. Decor in main areas was really eye catching. Our room was on top floor (no lift in building) and unfortunately overlooking the main roundabout so we had lots of noise all day/night as heavy vehicles go through Bakewell all hours. Our room was nicely decorated but a bit tired in places. The TV control would not turn off the TV and I personally found the bed uncomfortable so I did not get a good night's sleep with the noise and the bed. My husband did, however, find the bed ok so I guess I just prefer a softer bed. The location is great for restaurants and visiting Bakewell and Chatsworth and the Dark Peaks.

Superb base for walks

This hotel is fabulous. The staff were friendly and the room was very comfortable. The only drawback was the water pressure in the shower but I’m used to a very powerful shower at home. I had a meal in the evening there and breakfast the next morning and both were excellent. I shall definitely return

The Rutland arms is very quirky. One thing I would’ve liked to have seen was the fact that our room was not in the main hotel and in the Annex across the road. At the time we arrived there was no parking so you either risk parking on the roads nearby and having to move before breakfast the next day or paying £12-£14 for the main car park. The small double rooms are very small yet comfortable. The breakfast and decor in the main hotel is stunning. The breakfast was a very high standard. The general manager and staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Almost excellent - shame about the chef

Overall a great stay however breakfast service could be improved. The staff were friendly and helpful however thought approach of the chef strange. Can we have an omelette - no we don’t do them. Can we just have sliced avocado rather than the mashed - no. I don’t think either of these would really have been too much trouble for a chef but clearly not interested in pleasing the customer .
