Comfortable stay, relatively cheap, ideal location, easy access to public transportation, friendly, service-minded . However, only limited items for breakfast. Walking distance to the market and business centres and important museums: Manchester museum, Museum of Science and Industry and so on

Stayed here for 5 days in May. We got to our hotel at 9 and the rooms were not ready yet. They tagged our bags and held them for us while we went on an excursion. When we got back, all was ready and they even asked if we wanted any changes to our room, which we did and they... More

Well finished air conditioned room with a good cityscape view (I was on 7th floor). The breakfast was of a good standard and included hot buffet options. The hotel is well positioned for Oxford Road railway station which is an easy connection to Picadilly. A couple of minor niggles. Flashing LED on the in room smoke detector kept catching my... More

I spent one night here just before Christmas and the service was unquestionably excellent. I arrived at 11.45 and the room was available but I asked the receptionist if the room was at the rear as I wanted to be away from the main road. Shen told me the hotel was full but she would see if she could move... More

Booked a 1 night stay for a concert at The Ritz (which is just round the corner) and found the hotel to be very convenient - it can be seen from Oxford Road station - and comfortable. Bathroom was immaculate, nice large shower. The breakfast was better than expected, with a choice of coffees & teas, scrambled eggs, baked beans,... More

Just stopped for one night and chose based on proximity to the University Academy. Very pleasant, helpful staff and a choice of which floor we would like to stay on. Rooms are perfectly adequate although ours had a couple of small faults we fed back on before we left as it wasn't anything which ruined our stay. Security is good... More

Location on door step to Oxford Road Station with direct connection to and from Manchester Airport and a 5 mins Walt to Piccadilly / Arndale Center.. Tram (nearest St. Peters Square)... More

We stayed at the holiday Inn overnight in preparation for our daughter's participation in the Manchester Marathon. I booked three rooms to accommodate the family. On arrival the reception staff (Daniel Harris and Shareen Riley) were extremely efficient and welcoming. The hotel had made available extra rooms for showering after the marathon and requests for early breakfasts were acknowledged and... More
