This hotel surprised me after reading such bad reviews! My Single room was very clean, modern, had en-siute b/room. All staff inc. the Manger coulndn't do enough for me throughout my stay! My room no 19 looked onto the bars next door, Selfridges and the Manchester Wheel. Noisy at night but thats summer for you! 5 Star Service! more

if all you want is a clean place easy access to the room give this a miss - Bannisters not steady hose pipe leaking in the hall ways dead flies not just one or two right a cross the windows no hot water to wash in - although I would not recommend this hotel the staff were great and its... more

Perfect hotel for a night out in town, no taxi required and a lot more character than a bland Travelodge. Staff really lovely and helpful. Our room (20a) had the most amazing view over the Oyster Bar with the Manchester Wheel behind. It is a historic hotel so you do get sloping floors and rattling bannisters but that all adds... more

We were offered room 22 - without a lift this entailed a climb of about 5 flights of stairs, wobbly bannisters and rabbit warren layout!!! not for the faint hearted, weak- kneeded, heart problems, vertigo or otherwise (or those... more

stayed overnight for coldplay concert. room was on a slant. curtains didnt match, cracks right up walls. doors didnt stay closed unless locked due to the room being on a slant. dont know about the breakfast as i wouldnt have chanced eating there. more

Stayed here back in March so knew what to expect. Yes the hotel is very run down and the rooms are no different. However the bedlinen was clean and everything in the room worked (tv, shower, toilet) My biggest gripe is that the bar is crap! they had hardly any drinks and the draft beers & cider had run out... more

Ok from the walk up it resembles something run by Norman Bates but inside it's actually not too bad at all, so long as you're not expecting luxury. It's in a good location however, Printworks, Arndale, Victoria Station and of course the MEN Arena is on its doorstep. The Mitre wouldn't be our first port of call for Manchester, but... more
