Cost for use/purpose of stay. Shower, strong and hot.

Stephen, United Kingdom

Generally the facilities were very good, particularly the bar with some cheap beer! There is a restaurant on site and a nightclub next door.

Derek, United Kingdom

This is a typical 3 star city centre hotel, a little tired in place but room was clean and very comfortable

Shirley, United Kingdom

Awful bed. Got someone to pick me up so I could get home.

Anthony, United Kingdom

The only thing I liked about this hotel was that they refunded my money for the second night when I decided to check out after one miserable night.

Jane, United States of America

Location very good. Indeed, for central Manchester couldn’t be better. But…

Gds, United Kingdom

Central location within easy walking distance of Manchester Piccadilly Railway Station. Friendly & welcoming staff on reception. Large double ensuite room with a reasonably comfortable bed, two large armchairs and side table, and tea and coffee making facilities. Hotel quiet at night. Stunning central staircase in hotel.

Interesting build - obviously a lot of history. Good location.

What Travelers Love About This Location

“The location and dinner was lovely.”

Karrie

Ireland

“I booked this room at the Britannia Hotel for my Son and his friend for a weekend music gig. The central location was perfect for them, and they had a nice afternoon beforehand around the nearby shops and restaurants. They were given a high floor executive room and were very pleased with it. Very clean and omfortable and they slept well. They had an overall excellent experience. Check in was very busy as it was Freshers weekend but the reception staff dealt with their guests quickly and efficiently. Very friendly and polite staff. They would definitely stay again when visiting Manchester.”

눉Some rooms can be noisy being next to the nightclub. The quality of the breakfast was variable. They ran out of eggs before being replenished, and the fruit juices seemed to be made from concentrate which was either too strong or too weak.

“Find someplace else.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Twin Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉The hotel is run down, dirty carpet, smelly, bathroom sink did not drain properly, and worst of all, no ability to control the temperature in your room, so we had to open the windows (which only open about half an inch) to get some air in the room, and it was extremely noisy outside until 2 a.m. If you are a person who just needs a bed to sleep in and doesn't need or expect much, this place would be okay, but for anyone who expects any level of comfort or quiet, this is not for you. When I went to the desk to talk about the issues (temp. control, etc.), there were at least 3 people ahead of me complaining about their rooms. The staff was nice and tried to be helpful, but the issues with the age of the hotel are beyond their control.
눇The only thing I liked about this hotel was that they refunded my money for the second night when I decided to check out after one miserable night.

눉Room on ground floor underneath disco with excessive noise second night Given alternative room on 4th floor but no staff assisted transfer. Except couple of east European cleaners who helped me with bellboy trolley. No table or chair in room- no good for preparing for meetings the following day. But light levels so poor impossible to read anyway. Overall (based also on many years with a national tourist board) I would say Britannia is looking “tired”. I’d like Intercontinental to take it into management (Disclaimer: I’m an ICHG shareholder).
