The Midland - Manchester

10/10 Excellent

"The Midland hotels are go to place when we visit Manchester and we’ve never been disappointed with the staff from arrival to leaving the bar team and The concierge are always helpful"

Maldron Hotel Manchester City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Always have a good stay here. Decent location, comfortable room with modern decor (mirror in the bathroom is a little too high though). Breakfast is usually adequate, decent choice but typical buffet type offerings. Was quite busy at breakfast time though but they open up more tables in the bar area to cope with the number of people."

"Clean. Convenient. Central. Good value."

Holiday Inn Manchester - City Centre by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. The rugs in the room 606 need cleaning or replacing."

Crowne Plaza Hotel Manchester City Centre by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff, lovely hotel. Lovely rooms. Very good breakfast. Nice bar. My only criticism - having stayed there a few times - is that all the rooms I've had there feature the WORLD'S SMALLEST SHOWER! Anyhow, the nice lady at reception tells me they're due for a refurb, so that's cool. Would recommend, will definitely stay there again."
