Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful! The rooms were clean, very spacious, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The personalized card and chocolates were a lovely touch. The location was fantastic, ideal for shopping and exploring the city. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired on New Year's Day. Overall a great stay with a few minor hiccups.
The hotel offers large but bland rooms with a beautiful comfortable bed, equipped with Elemis toiletries and convenient tea and coffee-making facilities. The service was top-notch with kind and helpful staff, although slightly enthusiastic in taking orders. Its location near Manchester City Centre and Spinningfields provides convenience. The dining experience offered exceptional quality dishes. Overall, a clean and comfortable stay with friendly service.
The hotel offers very good, spacious rooms with great bedding and a very clean and comfortable environment. The service is excellent, with extremely friendly staff. The location is fantastic, just minutes away from key attractions. The dining experience has room for improvement but is decent overall. The facilities are well-maintained and convenient.
The hotel has large, well-furnished, comfortable rooms of a standard that justifies the price paid. The service is friendly, customer-focused, and attentive, offering great recommendations. The location is excellent, within walking distance of the city center. The dining experience could be improved, and the facilities are average.
The room was spacious and comfortable; however, it was not worth the high price we paid. Despite some wear and tear, the concierge service was attentive and friendly. The lack of a pool was a letdown.
I absolutely loved the 'homey' feeling of the huge, comfy, clean rooms with a beautiful large bed. The staff were nice, but there was a bit of a hiccup with room changes. The location was fantastic for exploring the city, and the dining experience had its highs and lows.
