Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, while well presented and equipped, seemed to lack proper cleaning, making the stay less comfortable. The price felt a bit high for the overall facilities provided. The absence of air conditioning made the rooms too hot for a good night's sleep.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was quite convenient, especially for Manchester airport, but the rooms, though very basic, needed some attention with maintenance and cleanliness. The service varied from being helpful and welcoming to less satisfactory experiences. The dining situation was a mixed bag with some enjoyable aspects but also some disappointments. Overall, it was a decent stay with both positive and negative aspects to consider.
The hotel is conveniently close to the airport, although the location lacks proper lighting and parking organization. The rooms, despite being slightly worn, feature comfortable beds. The service was slow and somewhat lacking in attentiveness. The dining experience, while pricey, offers limited selections and falls short compared to other similar hotels.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms let me down due to being uncomfortably hot and not as clean as expected. However, the service was exceptional with a room upgrade offered, and the location, although a bit far from the airport, was convenient overall. Dining experience had its flaws but was satisfactory. The facilities met expectations with a few areas needing improvement.
The hotel may have some dated elements in the rooms, but the beds are incredibly comfortable. The room cleanliness could use improvement as there were issues with dust, dirty mirrors, and stained towels. However, the staff provided fantastic service, with just one minor exception. The location is ideal for quick airport access despite some cleanliness issues around the property. The dining experience might be a bit overpriced and lacking variety, but some food options were good. The facilities could benefit from more maintenance.
The hotel rooms are very comfortable with all facilities, but a little tired. Despite some cleanliness issues and noise from outside, overall, the stay was decent. The service was fantastic, with friendly and accommodating staff. The location is convenient for airport travel, though could do with refurbishment. The dining experience was good with a variety of options. The facilities are satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room setup was as requested with a camp bed already in place, but unfortunately, it seemed like the room hadn't been cleaned in weeks and had an unpleasant smell, probably due to the unflushed toilet and unexpected findings.
I couldn't try the sauna because it was extremely hot despite the radiator being off until the late afternoon. The hot mince pies at the service seemed tasty, but the customer service at the leisure facilities was lacking. The location had its ups and downs, being a feel-good place for friends but with some parking issues. Dining was good but could offer more variety, and the hotel facilities were decent.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, despite some signs of tired furnishing, offered a very good and extremely comfortable night's sleep. The service, particularly on reception, was professional, and we appreciated the free drink voucher. The location, although pretty with plenty of flowers, was very pleasant and relaxing, especially for afternoon tea, and its proximity to Manchester Airport was convenient. The dining experience was good value for money, with a nice fresh choice of pastries and excellent quality coffee. Facilities were satisfactory overall.
