8.8 Very good
Pros:This hotel is the closest to the Town Hall/Albert Square. Getting there from the train station cannot be easier; the tram stops right in the corner, a few steps away. It is close to everything in downtown Manchester. Very comfortable beds. Very large bathroom. There were many airline employees all the time, so I guess they know it is comfortable and very convenient.
Cons:Room was odd shape without good views, but it was not bad.
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:My stay was for 4 nights, Beds were super comfortable, staff was superb and rooms were spacious.
A
9.7 Wonderful
Pros:The location can't be beat-. Close to shipping, bars and the Christmas markets. Could not have been happier with my choice. As a major plus, the staff was amazingly helpful.
