I stayed at the Golden Tulip for two nights in April 07, whilst attending a conference at Old Trafford. Obviously, the best thing is the close proximity to the ground, literally a stone's throw. We had a twin room on the 6th floor, with a great view of Old Trafford. When booking ask for a room with a view of the stadium or the canal, as some rooms have a poor view over the industrial estate behind the hotel! I assume the hotel has recently been refurbished, as there was a definite smell of "newness" in the corridors!!! The room was a good size, perfectly adequate for two or three nights, was very clean and everything in good condition. The beds were a little on the soft side for me, but this is a personal preference.
I must say that all of the staff we came into contact with were extremely friendly and very helpful, from reception to bar staff. We did not have any evening meals at the hotel, but we did have breakfast both mornings. This was of the buffet variety and was of good quality and varied.
I would recommend the Golden Tulip, but be aware that it is not in the city centre - taxi to centre is around £7/8. However, I know that there is a Metro stop not too far away.
It is possible to get a two night deal for £85 and I think this is good value for the standard of the hotel.
