Convenient Location
With just a one-minute walk to Glossop train station, The
George really couldn't be more conveniently located for travellers. Guests have
also found that Glossop has some nice restaurants and pubs that you may want to
consider visiting as well, and with the national park just a few miles away,
there's plenty to do in the area.

Could Use Some TLC
Guests have found that the décor is fairly outdated at this
hotel. With that being said, hotel management has indicated its intent to
refurbish the hotel, so future guests may find that the new improvements will
tremendously improve the stay experience here.
negative:
Rooms Can Be a bit Chilly
While the hotel does have heating, some guests have felt
that it seems to be inadequate. The hotel staff does provide blankets and
additional heaters, but this could be an issue that will be rectified with the
refurbishment of the guest house.
negative:
Showers Have Been Temperamental
You may find that it can be difficult to get hot water
flowing during your stay here, and that the plumbing in general - especially in
the showers - can be temperamental.
