The Britannia Country House Hotel  

The location is okay, plenty of parking space

As I entered the room, I found that the kettle was dirty and filled with some foul smelling fluid. There were pubic hair in the bath tub, many signs of mould in the bathroom. The room was not cleaned to a reasonable standard. There was foul smell in the room each time I entered. The room keys did not work and had to have them reset at reception everyday. There was a phone in the room but I could not use it to call reception for free. Despite putting a sign before leaving each morning, the bedsheets were never changed, and the bed was not done properly for all 8 days I stayed there. The carpets were not cleaned properly, nor the bathroom. I could see dried soap scum in the bath tub each day. The was basin and toilet was no exception. On the last day of my stay, there was no hot water. Overall a terrible experience. We did make a complaint to the hotel staff about each of the points described above, they said they'd have it sorted but never did. I guess they turn a blind eye for customers that have paid for their stay.

Nice place to relax after a hard days work.

Nothing bad, I will stay there again in the future.

We primarily picked the Britannia because our son works as a coach for manchester city, and has an apartment in Didsbury. We only stopped fpr the one night as we were staying in his apartment for the remainder of the week. However we did notice that patrons were using the hotel as an overnight stay prior to leaving on holiday and using the hotel car-park for the duration of their overseas location, as part of their holiday deal. We will be considering this for future holidays via manchester airport.

The one criticisumn was the room that we stayed in could be re-arranged to give more space by getting rid of the large mahogany unit that the T.V. sits on, it's neither use nor ornament as we geordies would say!!!

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, decent restaurant. Rooms could use black out curtains ans a curtain on the bathroom window, especially on ground floor rooms!

Amost everything - see below

The doors to the main entrance did not open automatically, this created a difficult situation for my husband and myself. We were on the last day of a 6-week vacation to the UK from San Francisco, Ca and as a result we had quite a bit of luggage. Trying to pull/push - can't quite remember - open the door and drag the luggage through was quite arduous. The was no bell hop available to assist us taking the luggage to our room. The elevator was quite small and did not allow for the use of the "trolly" as a result we had to make numerous luggage trips from the loby to our room. We ate dinner in the restaurant and paid with credit card. Unfortunately the bar in the restaurant would not accept credit cards. Since this was the last day of our 6-week vacation we did not have a lot of pounds sterling, we had euros and dollars but very little british pounds. We found this arrangement of being able to pay for our meal with a credit card but unable to purchasse a nice dinner wine a bit out of touch with the 21st century!

Value for money

I have stayed at quite a few Brittania hotels and they are all the same in that the corridor doors slam instaed of having working closers. What this means is everytime someone walks to or from their rooms the corridor door slams waking me up.

I was in a single room approx 6ftx6ft with a single bed against the wall, the mattress was about 8 inches thick there is about 18 inch space after alighting from the bed to the opposite wall. The elevator adjacent to the the room was noisy. When I asked the management to change the room he said the Hotel was full. I have stayed in Brittania airport hote on previous stop over and it was 1000% better. I will not stay at bchh ever again

Close to airport , great room for price

Deal price of my room was good, however I was above the main function room. Noise from the disco was easily heard but was lowered /switched off at around 10pm so didn't interfere with my sleep. The cask bitter from the bar during my stay was well kept and the staff helpful and friendly.

Intermittent WiFi on laptop, although iPhone was fine so could have been an issue with my hardwear?

Pool and spa facilities.

The hotel was filthy, really filthy. Walls paper thin and noise from other guests went on all night. No night security and No answer from reception when we needed help because of threatening and abusive guests outside our door. A dreadful experience we will never repeat, the management should be ashamed.

The reception area was very presentable.

The room was disgusting.toilet was very noisy when flushed,noises through ceiling from pipework.Room was situated within noisy area of other people partying.Door leading to corridor of room opened wrong way onto door of the room which i was staying.

The hotel was nice overall loved the spa

Size and what the room looked like

location is very good.

The lobby and passages have very old carpets and smell was terrible.
