The impressive building features a grand balconied staircase with original chandeliers. The bedrooms each have a private bathroom and some have seating areas and a work space. All rooms have a TV and tea/coffee making facilities.

Jenny’s Restaurant serves a varied menu featuring British favorites, while The Overstuffed Pizzeria offers Italian cuisine and fresh salads. The Wave Bar is open late with live DJs and a dance floor. Cromptons Bar features a relaxing lounge for casual drinks.

Just yards from lively Chinatown, Britannia Manchester is only 0.6 miles from Manchester Oxford Road Train Station. There is a Metrolink Tram stop just outside the hotel and the Granada Studios are a 20-minute walk away.

No temperature controls for the room, which was outrageously hot. Unbearable conditions. Could not sleep. Would have been better sleeping on a park bench. We were then given a fan for the room, but it did little to ease the awful conditions.
Friendly staff. Room was clean enough.

Unfortunately the people in the room next to ours were fighting and arguing and slamming doors all night. I had to ring down to reception. It was unacceptable. Therefore I felt it ruined my stay as I didn't get much sleep. This is such a shame as myself and my partner were really impressed with the hotel when we first arrived.

“No parking on site”

We arrived at the hotel to find out that the parking is a 10 minute walk away from the Hotel and there is a £10 charge per day for that. Not very convenient and should be made clear on the booking site. I called reception to ask for milk for tea and was told I would need to come to reception to collect it, I went to reception and asked for it then I was told to go downstairs to the restaurant to collect it, not very good customer service. Apart from this the location makes it a very noisy experience and it is difficult to sleep.
It's a good location for going out socialising, drinking and eating out.

The room was very warm due to no air-conditioning. There was a fan that helped though. The room was a little tired and dated. In reality the hotel would require a major facelift. In fairness to this the room pricing reflects this in my opinion.
The staff were very attentive and the location of the hotel is great. Close to Picadilly station and easy access from a free bus service from the station.
