hehe, the HSRP is usually run between two layer 3 switch for redundancy.
I believe HSRP is good enough for your solution.

If the Rapid-Spanning-tree is not quick enough for your case, the other
way would be recommand is use L3 function between access switch and core
switch and place default gateway in each access switch for client
access. but, please note the subnet will be split to many small subnets
which must summary in core level.

Subject: HSRP distance issue.

I have a question to ask.

Is it possible to have HSRP running on two routers, which are physically
quite distance from each other. Cisco does not recommand the setup, as
it will cause delay issue, within Spanning-Tree.
Could anyone pls advise that what could be the best method to have two
distance routers working as Active & Standby on the same subnet?

Many Thanks
