Kathleen, United Kingdom

The beautiful chandeliers as you walk in to reception, but that’s where the loveliness stopped.

Kerry, United Kingdom

We did not stay long enough to experience anything we likes

Kathryn, United Kingdom

Well, the main reason for me to choose this Hotel is the Location,, its right in heart of city center. In walking distance to Piccadilly garden and arandel

Ashwag, United Kingdom

Nothing the room very basic very loud due to the windows not shut tight the mattress was uncomfortable never again

Yousef, United Kingdom

The location is great. The entrance stairway itself is worth seeing!! The room was well-kept, reasonably spacious. The shower was excellent. Staff were very helpful.

Geoffrey, United Kingdom

Most of the staff were very helpful and friendly. Obviously the hotel was once very grand with impressive staircase and architecture. The location is superb with everything within easy walking distance.

Stephanie, United Kingdom

Was a great stay again as we always stay here great location

Tanya, United Kingdom

It was convenient to China town and to the shops. I would suggest you pay for breakfast at the hotel rather than online - it was only £7pp. Parking was £15.50 around the back of the hotel. For information purposes, the Saco hotel apartment was behind it so just as convenient. The mercure hotel was directly opposite.

Kwai, United Kingdom

Staff was friendly and the local was close to the city center

What Travelers Love About This Location

“- location - Price - Bathroom quality”

Rayan

Ireland

“Service from moment of arrival and throughout was excellent.good location.”

Ann

United Kingdom

“Location was fantastic, we travelled down for The Stone Roses concert and booked the hotel well in advance, however I was dubious after reading several reviews. I had no reason to be. The check in process was streamlined, the staff were friendly and helpful, yea the hotel is dated, but for what we paid it wasn't bad at all. We ate in Jenny's restaurant on the first night and this was cheap and cheerful, two 3 course carvery meals, cheeseboard, two lagers and a bottle of wine for £32, not bad at all. The staff member who worked in the luggage room deserves a special mention, nothing was too much trouble, he made sure my husband and I knew exactly what tram to get to the etihad and even where the nearest free cash point was (the hotels was £1.75)”

눉The property is very tired and in need desperately of a complete refurbishment. Old, dated and dirty. Our room was basic and very old. Lots of broken things. Check in took 30 mins. The room definitely was not worth the £165 I paid! The location is perfect and I suspect that’s why it’s so expensive! Breakfast was £7 extra each and was ok I guess. Dining room was old tired and needs refurbishment too. The hotel is very warm and stuffy too.
눇The beautiful chandeliers as you walk in to reception, but that’s where the loveliness stopped.
