Clean and immaculately presented room. Shame the blinds in the bedroom and the heating didn’t work, although an electric heater was provided which was very efficient. Breakfast was delicious although needs to be booked in advance (not made clear to me). No dinner was served apart from snacks at the bar, but there are many good places to eat out in Matlock. The one man on reception was very helpful and friendly, although the hotel did feel like a bit of a ghost ship. Good location only 10 to 15 minutes from Matlock or Matlock Bath.

Oct 25 - We stayed for the illuminations/fireworks in Matlock Bath. The hotel is an easy 5-10 walk into Matlock Bath. So location is great We stayed in room 14 a superior room. It's in the eves of the hotel with quite low beams. The bed was round which was a suprise but comfy. There was a good TV and coffee/ tea making facilities. The bathroom was very open, the shower is over the biggest bath ever however it has no shower curtain or shower door, so the floor gets soaked. The toilet is also not in a private room which was odd. There are walls but it is not enclosed. We all need some privacy!! Apart from a few cobwebs the room was clean and big. It was a shame that breakfast wasn't included, so we ate elsewhere. On the whole a nice hotel

The High Tor is a bizarre hotel. It's shabby, the decor is baffling, and it seems to be staffed when they feel like it. Despite advertised breakfast hours of 8am-10am, the restaurant was locked and reception deserted: clearly nobody could be bothered to get up. The bedroom itself was small but passable. Most depressing was a card on the first floor landing thanking staff for giving them such a lovely honeymoon! Anyone bringing their partner here for their wedding night should expect to have divorce papers filed the next day. Ultimately, there's a reason this hotel is among the cheapest in the area. It was a memorable experience, but not for the right reasons.
