I chose to stay here for 2 nights on arrival from NZ, to get over 'jet lag' before hiring rental car to wander around UK. Absolutely no regrets. Used local bus from airport - lengthy, but worth while to unwind a little and observe / enjoy the suburbs of Manchester. Hotel easy to walk to from bus, took 7-10 minutes.... more

The service was great. All staff friendly and approachable. Had breakfast every morning which was generally a buffet (continental and full English) and was all nice food. The evening food is also very nice and not too expensive. However with the hotels central location there are plenty of very nice restaurants about! The room I stayed in was huge. Its... more

Stayed at this hotel with 2 friends ages 21 & 30. We stayed in 2 rooms a twin and a single. Twin room was very spacious & comfortable with a huge bathroom however single room was rather on the snug & cosy side even for 1 person! Excellent location, close to Canal St bars and nightlife. Nice breakfast. Helpful &... more

I stayed here with colleagues for a meeting. It's in dire need of it's current refurbishment. My room wasn't particularly clean - I'm not sure when it was hoovered last. I had no kettle or remote control but the guy on reception was exceptionally helpful. I then went to close the window before going to dinner (which was adequate -... more

We stayed in this hotel for three nights over the August Bank Holiday Weekend for the Manchester Pride festival. There were three of us sharing a room (twin room with a pull-out underbed - Room 104) and found the room spacious, comfortable and clean. The bathroom could hav done with a little updating, but believe me, I've seen far, far... more

The Real truth about this hotel!!! Its not as big as some hotels in Manchester, but due to this each and every guest seems to be treated as a V.I.P. The hotel is currently being done up, its going through a multi million pound investment and I am told it will rival some of the top hotels around and bring... more

I stayed at this hotel in the middle of July as I was in the area attending a couple of meetings and the price seemed reasonable for a hotel that from the outside looks grand. They say never judge a book by its cover and this hotel is no exception to that rule. On entering the hotel you can see... more

Ok, time for the good points - The staff were helpful and accommodating. The bedroom and bathroom were large and well lit. When I entered our room I was assaulted on two fronts: I was immediately greeted by the smell of..........lets say old socks......much better than what I think was. Then the noise from the busy junction outside, which was... more

I visited with my autistic son and because the hotel was fairly quiet and we were staying longer than the average guest (four nights) we were upgraded. The staff were really patient with us and the larger than average room made a potentially stressful stay in Manchester very easy. more
