I'd read mixed reviews but thought i'd chance it as it was only for 1 night for me and the girlfriend. I was very surprised by what I found. Upstairs is bit of a maze but the room was ofadequate size, en-suite with a microwave and electric cooker. The TV didn't work though we could to the menu part. The... More

I must admit I had reservations about staying here, but would probably stay here agais. The main things in it's favour are the rooms ar comfortable and warm if a bit small, and proximity to tram station Spoke to the new owner while,and he seems to have plans to modernise. If you want somewhere cheap for a short stay, you... More

Stayed for one night on Friday 4th January 2012. Staff were very welcoming on arrival. Nice clean room, bathroom and comfy bed. Very quiet also, so got a peaceful night's sleep. Very cheap compared to other hotels I'd looked at in the nearby area. If you're looking for a hotel on a budget, it is well worth the money. A... More

Stayed one night with parents after we went to match at Manchester Utd. Big mistake (hotel not match). Had pre booked on booking.com but scruffy man behind bar had no record of booking. Never mind he said I have the rooms. Mum & Dads room had a cooker, toaster etc clearly geared for contractors and big sign saying 'No Cooking'... More

I must say this hotel did not even have the decency to reply to me directly. I am also going to the consumer council, the liquor board the AA and the Hotel Chamber Of commerce and am going to officially lodge a complaint. I called the hotel just after 8pm and asked the lady how easy is it to get... More

Bearing in mind, I booked this place purely because we were on a budget and needed a bed for the night south of Manchester, we weren't disapointed. I was doing a triathlon in Cheshire Sunday morning and we have family in Manchester so Altrincham was the perfect location and due to the proximity to the metrolink the Barrington Hotel was... More

Looks like from other reviews they have refurbished. I stayed in room 6, decent size ,comfortable bed,very clean,big bath tub,powerful shower. The hotel is really a pub with rooms but I have stayed in a lot worse than this and a lot more expensive . Staff friendly and refurbished bar. Will certainly be back. Very comfortable.

Arrived late and nice Slovak guy showed me to my room, £25 a night, en suite. Rooms decor was past its best and the facade does indeed recall down at heel pubs but its location (1 minutes from rail and bus depot with a huge supermarket nearby) cannot be beaten. The noise from other rooms and outside might be a... More

I stayed at the Barrington on a weekend trip up to Manchester, was a little dubious at first as it looks like old fashioned spit and sawdust pub. Checked in by friendly owners and shown to rooms which had evrything you need, were clean and tidy though they could do with a refurbishment but none the less they were comfy... More
