The room looked like someone tried to decorate it in a Duplo theme rather than anything resembling a high‑end hotel. A coat of garish paint doesn’t hide the fact that the space is still fundamentally tired and dated.The single‑glazed window was another let‑down, especially for a room overlooking an area where a drummer busker performs. Noise poured straight in, making it hard to relax or switch off.Overall, it’s a worn‑out room with a bright paint job, and absolutely not worth £280 a night.

I was away in Manchester with a colleague on a course, so we've booked twin room.
To our surprise there were two beds with two beddings, but put together as one.
Beds were touching each other and there was no way of moving them apart, as the night stands prevented it.

This was not a twin room and should not have been sold as such

Internet was intermittent a would drop frequently. Staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms are being updated. Some remodel decisions seem in conflict, like the bathroom and shower enclosure was redone but the chipped old bathtub was kept. The parking is onsite and convenient but expensive. The location is excellent. Good food options everywhere. Some old buildings to wander past. However, much is under construction or renovation like Piccadilly gardens, the city building, etc.

Good location. Very tired rooms. Only stayed 1 night but cost me £40 for parking. Asked at reception about extending parking for a few hours said would be able to do it on the parking app. What they didn’t say is if you had originally paid for one day [£20] you couldn’t just do an extra 3/4 hours do basically 28 hours cost me £40. Had I been informed of this I would have moved the car and found a cheaper alternative. Breakfast was ok staff really friendly in there. Would I stay again probably not. Been in much better hotels in Manchester for similar price

The room and hotel is more of a 3 star than 4. Bed was comfortable, room was clean but a bit tired. Shower was over the bath and was too low for me so I had to bend over to shower. Staff were mostly nice with one exception who appeared to be arguing with her manager at the front desk at the time. Breakfast was excellent and is the only reason that I may return. I am back in Manchester in a couple of weeks and the same room is over £100 more so I am staying elsewhere. There are lots of good hotels in Manchester, others have been better.

Room was clean and well presented however the main let down was the temperature. It was very cold upon arrival and it was difficult to warm the room up. There had been a mobile heater left available to use in the room which suggests the hotel clearly was aware of the issue. Bathroom was clean but dated, and shower leaked onto the floor. Staff upon check in very friendly and welcoming and took time to inform us of directions to places around the city and recommend local points of interest.

The hotel is in a great location in the city center. The staff were welcoming, especially those at restaurant. I was disapointed that the room and bathroom wasn't cleaned to a high standard. Some areas in the room and bathroom like the sink and around the bath were obvious. Lack of towels in the room as we were only given one. The windows were also dirty, blurring the view outside. Its a great hotel but improvements will make it a much better experience.

Our recent stay did not meet the level of quality or hospitality we expected.
We arrived approximately 21 minutes prior to the stated check-in time and hoped to check in slightly early if the room was ready. Unfortunately, this was not possible. While we understand policies around check-in times, we were disappointed to learn that early check-in was unavailable without an additional fee, even if the room may have been ready. 21 minutes is not a time allowance that would warrant a fee.
The room itself appeared aesthetically tired. There was chipped paint in the bathroom, the mattress felt like cardboard and the bathroom door did not close securely without significant effort. These issues contributed to the overall impression that the room fell below the standard we anticipated.
We would normally choose to dine on-site; however, given the missing elements of expected hospitality and the overall condition of the room, we opted not to do so. The experience felt more in line with a budget-value accommodation rather than the quality advertised.
We hope this feedback is taken constructively and used to improve the guest experience going forward

The shower was very low and had to bend down to do my hair. Also the shower was leaking and created a puddle of water on the floor.

The double doors in the corridor outside made a loud band every time someone went through them. They did not seem to shut properly which caused the noise. If they are fire doors should shut properly.

Also had to pop down to reception twice as my card didn’t work. Was not keeping it by cards as advised it was in another pocket but still happened. Nice bar area and very friendly staff. Just a bit noisy with sounds from outside hotel.

Hotel is being refurbished and rooms are OK.... Bathrooms very basic and the windows just not very nice. Biggest problem was that there are 15 floors that are served by max 3 lifts it's not enough... One was out of order for my stay making it even worse. Staying on the 10th floor often lifts would stop but already be full... Waited 10 mins...took the stairs but they were very poorly indicated and were like the back stairs to a 1940s council building.... Ended up going through a back corridor to find the dining room. Staff were all friendly and helpful and the breakfast was decent... So it's OK for a 1 night stay... Good location.... But don't go expecting comfort.... Expensive therefore for the quality on offer

Also after the lift ordeal my key card didn't work when I arrived to my room so needed to go back to reception to have it re coded

We were attending an event at the hotel and booked a room for the convenience. The hotel is in a great location It was for a special occasion and we had booked a suite. The room was very spacious but very dated. The bathroom we felt was not up to a good standard - there was moulding all over the bath tub / shower (which can be removed with the right cleaning equipment). The headboard was all marked and just the general attention to detail was not there. We waited for the lift for ages with other guests and so we took the stairs which was fine but again we’re not up to standard . Unfortunately we wouldn’t be staying again.

Good location for the hotel, overall the stay was satisfactory. However, on arrival the lifts took 25 minutes to arrive -one was out of order which left 2 lifts serving the hotel- we tried to take the stairs however only went to the 4th floor. Once we arrived in our room it was relatively clean but there was dirty full nappy bag (not ours and smelt quite strong) behind the bathroom door and every time you showered the bathroom flooded. Again, once we wanted to go out / leave the lifts took 20+ minutes to arrive. Okay stay but probably wouldn’t come again.
