Great airport hotel
Advantages Nice room and fab location
Disadvantages can be pricey
The Radisson hotel at Manchester Airport is probably one of the more well known as it has now been there for quite some time and unlike a lot of others around the Airport, hasn't been bought out over the years and renamed. The hotel is set right in the heart of Manchester Airport so that all three terminals are easily accessible from it and it is easy spot if you are coming off of the motorway to the Airport as it is set right at the bottom of a hill in front of the main roundabout at the airport that has all the flags of the world on it.
Room:General hotel amenities:
The hotel can be entered through either the main lobby on the ground floor or you can enter at the bar level in the sky tunnel that links terminals one and two of Manchester Airport.
The hotel is modern and staff are very helpful. The hotel also has meetings rooms for business and business guests can hire out the main dining room for private functions which overlooks the terminal two area.
The bar serves a good range of drinks but is not cheap! The hotel also has it's own gym which is at a charge but it is a really nice gym and quite a lot of the locals use this as their main gym.
Location and surroundings:
The hotel is right overlooking the terminal two area of Manchester Airport however all rooms are soundproof so this isn't an issue and you can get a good nights sleep. The location of this hotel though is by far it's best feature over all the other airport hotels in the area. Even though all the others are within easy reach of the terminals and you can walk from them (the ones on site at the airport) if you wanted to, the Radisson has the advantage as if it was pouring down with rain for example, you need not even go outside to reach any of the terminals at all as you can use the skylink that is connected to the hotel. This is a big bonus for the hotel!
The main train and bus station of Manchester Airport is literally across from the hotel and guests arriving from elsewhere to the Airport by these methods cannot fail to see the hotel and you can even walk from the station through the sky tunnel and into the hotel without even having to step outside!
Overall this is a good choice for those guests that want convenience and a nice hotel at the same time - it is also good for business travellers too so it is a sure fire winner all round.
