Top Chinatown Hotel Reviews

a&o Manchester City Centre

8/10 Good

"It's an odd place, an odd set up. Check-in is a bit farcical as they insist on your qr code link and registering whilst they stand there waiting. Then that registration needs N official ID, passport or driving licence etc, then you realise you can enter 12345678 a d that is ok. Rooms are decent a d decent sized, no kettle, and cleen shower pod. The blocks housing LL the rooms are odd, hostel feel. Saying all that, they are good value. So there you go"

Clayton Hotel, Manchester Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, very clean , the hotel staff are brilliant very friendly and helpful and go over and beyond to help you, this includes the courtesy bus shuffle drivers. Food was lovely and breakfast was nice.. The only downside was our bathroom sink had a big chip in the bowl, and no air conditioning in the rooms . I would definitely stay here again"

Britannia Hotel Manchester

8/10 Good

"Wonderful historic hotel situated in the city centre so perfect for exploring. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. We arrived very early due to train changes in a heatwave, was hoping to take advantage of the free bag storage, instead we were able to check in 4 hours early! The Room was clean and functional. Hair dryer, bath and shower available. TV, kettle in room which was spacious. My only gripe, is the beds were positioned away from plug sockets for recharging, and only 3 total. There was no air conditioning or fans made available though it is an old property. But a little investment could improve that. The biggest problem was again, old property/lack of investment. The central location meant we were plagued by noise which would have been preventable with upgraded, modern, double glazing windows. But overall a great stay and would probably stay again. But with plug adapters and ear plugs!"

Copthorne Hotel Manchester Salford Quays

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in an excellent location, particularly for Salford Quays, and overall we had a pleasant stay. The staff were friendly, professional and helpful, and I had no issues whatsoever with the bed, view or parking. However, the rooms feel quite outdated for the modern traveller and have not kept pace with what guests expect in 2026. Our room had no fridge, very limited USB charging points and a bathroom that, while clean and functional, was clearly in need of modernisation. One particularly frustrating issue was the bedside USB ports, which were actually located underneath the bedside table. This made them extremely awkward to access and, with a short charging cable, using a phone comfortably in bed was difficult. In 2026, when guests travel with phones, tablets and smartwatches, easily accessible charging points should really be standard. We ate in the hotel restaurant on three occasions and found the food quite nice. The hotel's proximity to Salford Quays is also a major advantage and the location itself is excellent. Overall, the hotel has a great deal going for it. If the rooms were modernised with updated bathrooms, a fridge and better charging facilities, I would score this hotel very highly. The staff and location are excellent, but the rooms need updating to better reflect the needs of today's traveller."

Manchester Portland By Sunday

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely overnight stay at the Portland by Sunday Hotel in Manchester's Piccadilly area. The location is excellen right in the heart of the city and within easy walking distance of Manchester Piccadilly Station, the Opera House Theatre, and plenty of great restaurants, bars and shops. The hotel has a quirky character with fun décor throughout, featuring sunglasses, umbrellas, boots and weather-themed displays, which gives it a unique personality. The staff were all warm, welcoming and very helpful We stayed during a heatwave, but the air conditioning in the room worked brilliantly and ensured we had a comfortable night's sleep. We paid an extra £10.for a late checkout, giving us an extra hour in bed after a night out in Manchester, and it was well worth it. We also paid just £4 to store our two bags after checkout, which allowed us to enjoy an afternoon of shopping without having to carry luggage around the city. Although we didn't eat in the restaurant, we enjoyed a few beers in the bar while watching the World Cup, and the atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable. The only minor downside was the room entrance. The hallway between the door and the sleeping area is quite narrow, so larger guests or anyone using mobility aids may find access a little restricted. It certainly wouldn't put me off staying again, but it's something worth being aware of. Overall, this is a fantastic hotel in a superb central location with friendly staff, comfortable rooms and excellent value f"
