The hotel is located in the heart of Manchester, making it perfect for a couples city break with bars, restaurants, and transport options all within walking distance. While the rooms exceeded our size expectations and were clean, they were a bit outdated and not as stylish as depicted in the pictures. The service was friendly and welcoming, with a small hiccup regarding a key card issue. The dining options were decent but not exceptional. A great spot for travelers wanting convenience in Manchester.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a bit of a tight squeeze and not exactly as advertised, but they were located in a spacious area with minimal noise, excellent facilities, and extremely friendly staff. On the downside, there were some early morning disturbances by other guests. The service was polite and prompt but lacked that extra touch. The location was extremely convenient for exploring the city and felt secure, though some street noise was a drawback. The dining experience was hit-or-miss, with one meal being overpriced but delicious while another was just okay. Overall, the facilities were decent, but nothing stood out as exceptional in terms of value for money.
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were big and cozy but felt a bit tired, overlooking the main road. It was very hot inside, and the window only opened a small amount. The service was a mix of friendly and unfriendly staff. The location was superb, close to transportation and shops, but a little edgy for some. The dining offered a varied selection with some tasty options. Overall, it could use some improvements but had some positive highlights too.
