Spent 13-16th May at this hotel as part of a bus tour. This time was very enjoyable in good company. Staff were very pleasant and helpful . Our room was clean and tidy but with no view. Some areas do need to be upgraded but this is a well used hotel. Food was plentiful and we had a good choice.... More

Went here for a long weekend on a National Holidays trip. Considering what we paid for the tour the hotel was okay. Not the best, not the worst. We have been in worse for much more money. Our room was obviously one of the economy rooms and was clean if small. Only downside was the bed was solid (didn't do... More

We stayed here on route to our holiday in Tunisia. So for 1 night b+b a bottle of wine, transfers to and from the airport and 7 days parking the £50 we paid was an absolute bargin. Yes its not a 5 or even 4* hotel but as many people have said on here you get what you pay for!... More

Considering it costs upwards of £50 for 14 nights parking near Manchester airport and this accomodation cost us £76 for one night, 14 nights parking and transfers its almost a no - brainer. Like every hotel in the group I have found the staff friendly, locations convenient, prices very competitive, cheap bar and ideally in need of a multi million... More

I booked this hotel via booking.com, because it had gym and pool facilities. It's name "country house" conjures images of a nice period hotel. It's couldn't be further from the truth. From the rude abrupt colleague on reception, to the borstal like room and nightclub beer on carpet smell of the foyer this place is appalling. It's not fit for... More

First of all must say hotel looks good and nice entrance.one night stay for the price was reasonable. But considering it states that you are going to get things in your room and then don't is pretty disgusting!!! It stated we would have a bath,hairdryer,trouser press and choice of heating options. Our room contained none of these. Went to reception... More

The food is second to none, its really nice however its a very transient hotel with it being an airport drop off/pick up hotel. We were situated above the main door so probably experienced more noise than normal. However we were also very cold and were told that it was summer (early May) and the heating had been turned off,... More

Cannot deny the excellent value for money on this deal. However, do not expect a modern hotel, it is a little tired in decor but on the whole ok. Being upgraded to an executive room made a good difference for us both. Bar Staff and Reception staff were friendly, efficient and responsive. The restaurant was ok but be early for... More

You cannot phone the hotel to book directly and have to book via the Britannia website (and pay -which is annoying). We wanted a triple room near the airport to drop someone off for a very early flight. We were told it was cheaper to do the deal of B,B and dinner (plus a bottle of wine) than to book... More
