Advantages: Pleasant,friendly,clean. Quiet.
Disadvantages: None that we could see.

...stayed one night in the Jurys Inn with my husband. It is situated inthe city centre, close to the shops and next to Bridgewater Hall. Our room was not very big but roomy enough and pleasant with plenty of natural light via the window. There was not much of a view even though we were on the sixth floor. There was tea & coffee provided & a very fast-boiling kettle. We were given extra coffee & tew bags at reception with no hesitation when we asked. ...
...& we had a good night's sleep. It was very quiet during the night, no doors slamming or people walking around the corridors ,in fact we wondered if we were the only guests! No noise from outside the hotel,either. The bathroom was quite small but nice powerful shower. Breakfast wasn't included for us & we didn't eat dinner there so can't comment on the food. All in all a pleasant stay. ... Read review

Advantages: IN the centre and near the arena
Disadvantages: No windows in bedroom

I went to Manchester recently to go and see a concert, so me and my friend stayed in this hotel. When pulling up to the hotel it looked funky, but it's totally different when you get inside. It had a very old fashioned decor and some of it seemed mismatched. The reception desk was long with 3 staff members behind it, but only one member of staff seemed to want to help. They never mentioned what time food was served or where either. After we checked ...
...would be big enough if you had more luggage. It did advertise the restaurant but it didn't tell you what food was available. When we got up to the room and it was quite small but very hot. So we looked behind the curtains to see if we could open the windows but to our surprise there was none. There was air conditioning and a fan but they were just too loud to sleep. The bed was very hard and lumpy to. The bathroom thank god was clean and a reasonable ... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic architure and history to this Grade II listed building
Disadvantages: Now contains a cheap and noisy hotel

...Manchester City Centre, then the Britannia Hotel in Manchester cit centre seems to fit the bill. Unfortunately however, the rooms, atmosphere and general politeness of staff are somewhat lacking. I would recommend staying somwehere else, such as the Portland Thistle hotel next door, or the Piccadilly Gardens hotel (a short walk away). The Britannia does seem to attract most of the stag do's in town and irish football fans when Manchester United are ...
...are two bars at the Britannia Hotel - WAVE bar and Bar-Rogue, I would reccomend avoiding WAVE bar and Bar Rogue on a weekend night as it does attract a lot of unsavoury characters and trouble is commonplace at weekends, the drinks offers are superb though, with many £1 a pint promotions on throughout the week. Both bars offer food all day long at affordable prices and there is music provided by the in-house DJ's. Also located within the hotel complex ... Read review

I would like to take this opportunity in sharing my experience in the Manchester Airport Hotel. My friend and I had booked a room (no. 321) for one night in the Manchester Airport Hotel for 11th August 2007 at the cost of 49 British pounds. Upon unpacking I noticed that of the two towels provided in the bathroom, the smaller one, showed a large very yellow stain running down the middle of it, the larger one was acceptably clean. One additional large ...
...and requested further towels from the young lady answering the phone. Within 2 minutes the night Manager rang back and suggested that I "look in the wardrobe". Having stated that I had indeed already done this, the "manager" started a debate with me. Here I quote from the hotel services hotel information brochure "An additional set of towels may be found the wardrobe" A sign in the room also states "If you need additional towels, please call the ...

Advantages: Location, lovely rooms, very clean, friendly reception.
Disadvantages: Bar prices!

I stayed at the Tulip Inn (Trafford Centre) early in August as the Arctic Monkeys were playing at Lancashire Cricket Ground. When we arrived the car park was quite full but had plenty of spaces, even though the hotel very obviously very busy. There was no conceirage at the hotel waiting to take your bags or even give you a hand on the way in, as there is at many hotels, but we didnt really expect this. When we arrived at reception the hotel was ...
...at the front of the hotel next to reception. The positioning of the bar seems to cause problems at the hotel when busy. Anyway the receptionist was great and the check in was very fast! When we arrived in the room we were pleasantly surprised, the room is quite big and the bed was huge and very comfy! All the usual extras were there, television, coffee and tea making facilities. The view from the room was also excellent, right across to the Trafford ... Read review
