Comfortable, relaxing and pleasant

Great price for the location, right near the station and on canal street, close to centre and bars etc. Beautifully designed and modern, very clean. Enjoyed a welcome drink offered by reception staff. Fully stocked mini bar with pricing clearly stated, coffee machine and kettle. Bed was comfortable and very big. Reception allowed us to delay checkout at last minute for an additional charge. Shower was clean, large and pleasant to use. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Surprisingly quiet considering the location.

Not much to say other than the sink had some kind of blockage causing slow drainage and room was slightly smaller than expected for an upgraded room, however all round impressed and will stay again :)

Hotel im lebendigen Ausgehviertel

Mitten im Gay Viertel gelegen - ein lebendiges Ausgehviertel, vor der Haustüre kann man direkt am Kanal sitzen und Cocktails schlürfen. Viele Restaurants sind in der Nähe. Wenn man losläuft, erreicht man die meisten Sehenswürdigkeiten. Wir hatten ein sehr schräg eingerichtetes Zimmer mit schwarzen Tapeten und einer Fotomotivtapete und fanden es sehr lustig. Das Frühstück kam per Tablett aufs Zimmer und war sehr gemischt und ausreichend, eine Kaffeemaschine war auf dem Zimmer. Netterweise bekam ich unten auch Aufladegeräte für unterschiedliche I Phones ausgeliehen - ich hatte leider den falschen Adapter dabei...

Great place, great vibes.

Great room. On the 1st floor and there was absolutely no issue with the sound. Very comfy bed and pillows, and the room was huge. And location is perfect as well.

Could have a breakfast option at the hotel as opposed to a hamper. But no complaints really.

Honest Review

The room I stayed in was bigger than the normal hotel room and had a luxurious in aesthetic yet humble in character feel to it. The hotel is based in the heart of Manchester overlooking the canal on a popular party street. The room has a good size bed and was very comfy. Bathroom was stunning very modern with a big rainfall shower with no problems to the pressure or the temperature.

I booked a room that stated party package therefore assumed I would receive a little something extra, however all I got was party music in my room from the downstairs bar until 2am therefore If your a light sleeper the noise from the bar, street and neighbouring clubs can cause an issue, I was provided with earplugs and it made very little difference. It was underwhelming and misleading naming the room King Room - Party Package as I booked the room thinking I was getting at least something extra and didn't. I also feel that every room should have water to drink included especially if your paying a premium. It would also be good to provide your guests with some generic biscuits to go with a cup of tea and instructions on how to use the coffee machine. It's these little touches that can turn a good stay into a great one. For me value for money felt a bit short coming as you can get another hotel room in Manchester for the same price that includes breakfast.

Was comfortable, warm and central but needs some work…

It’s a grey central location in the heart of the canal street. Those who doesn’t like to party this may not be the best location! Windows are not sound proof! Friendly and welcoming staff!

The hotel is a it worn out, one room safe didn’t work, the other room shower drain wasn’t draining properly… some stains on bed sheets. High prices come with high expectations but reality is below the expectations. However their kind and thoughtful approach to their guests leaves me with a lot of hope! I wish every hotel was as nice as this one in dealing with short falls!

Beautiful hotel in excellent location but missing small touches.

The hotel and room was beautiful, as was the bathroom. The balcony was great and overlooked the canal. Bed was very comfortable.

No slippers in room or other amenities expected in a 4 star hotel, such as shower cap, slippers and complimentary water. Two coffee pods provided, so one each. We asked reception for some salt (due to a tooth issue) and were told that request would be “very difficult” to fulfil. Noise from amorous neighbours at night and banging next morning was not ideal.

Convienent location, nothing special

Stones throw from Piccadilly St, very pleasant staff, easy check in, Bed was very comfortable

They take a 50 pound deposit as you check in, still waiting for it back, this is not mentioned anywhere. Room could have been cleaner, also quite shabby, bathroom in need of attention

Sorry wouldn’t stay here again

* Hot water went off - was told boiler wasn’t working * When we called reception twice it went to the brassiere next door first * headboard has loads of chips in - looks scruffy * extremely noisy hotel. Could hear people walking in their rooms above us. At 2-3am sounded like somebody was having a party in their room * brassiere next door, food was shocking. Calamari not cooked properly, batter was not crispy which was the same for the fish and chips. Starters were cold. Only one server working. Limited to the Sunday menu also which had no choice on it

Beautiful hotel, great staff, inconsiderate guests

The hotel is beautiful and our room was fantastic. We loved the enormous bath, Molton Brown toiletries and comfy bed. Being offered a glass of fizz on arrival was a nice touch.

We were kept awake until 4am by noisy room neighbours. This was eventually dealt with by staff, but ruined our stay. Being parents of a toddler we were banking on 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Instead we managed 3 hours of disturbed sleep.

2nd visit, air con broken, very disappointing

Excellent location, rooms are nicely refurbished

Air con was broken, and the heat was stuck on. Hotel staff provided us with a fan but didn’t send anyone to fix it. It was a pretty unbearable stay.

Fun hotel. Fun location.

Stylish hotel in a very vibrant part of town. If vibrant is not your thing, you may want to stay elsewhere. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff.

The best from the music in a nearby bar went on until late in the night on Saturday. But hey, that was just an invitation to join the fun.

All-in-all a very nice experience unlike any other hotel i've stayed in and in a nice area of Manchester convenient

It was absolutely stunning, from lighting to the beautiful design, staff were very polite and welcoming. Nice view of street lights down below, massive TV, custom fan settings for the whole accommodatiom. VERY comfortable bed and high ceilings. Just wish we could've stayed longer.

Bath took ages to fill, wasn't so clear on snack prices (as list was hidden behind crisps in the basket), the blinds also shut randomly without our knowledge and didn't know how to open them again. Water in shower was cold and couldn't turn it up any higher. Also no milk to go with the coffee (would've had to call downstairs for it but only stayed one night and had to be out by 11am and couldn't wake up which is more of a positive on the comfort of the bed). Lights weren't very versatile- if we wanted the room lights on the lounge part would also have to be on. Really getting petty here but bin liners weren't secured to the edge of the bin so basically fell beneath the rubbish, felt bad for the cleaning staff.
