Eden Valley Yoga Vacations

This property was perfect for our needs, working at a conference in the city. We arrived 9pm and left early both days, so just needed a place to sleep. Private carpark round the rear of property. Close to metro (tram) stop and an easy 20 minutes by car from the city centre (less for Salford Quays or Old Trafford). Apart from check-in we never saw anyone during our weekend stay. Host was contactable by mobile if we needed (which we didn't). Self service breakfast provided (cereals) as under new management so the kitchen was not up and running for serving breakfast. Totally silent at night, so we slept really well. Comfortable temperature all night on a very stormy wet weekend. Would definitely stay again if working an event in Manchester.

This place was great. Whenever I come to Manchester I try and get a room here. Stylish, great location, surrounded by awesome food and shopping options. I love it.

Attended for a wedding, need to provide better and more options for those who do not or cannot drink. I am 4 months pregnant and due to all soft drinks offered containing caffeine only option was juice. No alcohol alternatives offered for the toast just kind of a let down in this day and age for a place so highly rated and hosting numerous events

My stay at the Clayton Hotel began poorly with a very disappointing check-in involving two front desk staff, one a night supervisor/manager. Fortunately, things improved after that, and overall my stay was reasonably good. The room was basic: no mini-fridge, no facial tissues, no shower cap, and one missing light bulb that hadn’t been replaced. It served its purpose, but some extra attention to detail would make a difference. The hotel is clearly very busy, yet many staff work extremely hard. A highlight was in the breakfast restaurant, where a lady kindly arranged a fresh fruit salad for me after learning I’m intolerant to pineapple — something I greatly appreciated. Special mention also goes to Zoran and Maggie at the front desk, who were kind and professional, and helped improve my impression after the rocky start. One disappointment was the Expedia VIP Access programme. At this property, it felt more like a marketing tool than a real benefit, as I noticed no meaningful perks. Overall, while the hotel itself is basic and VIP benefits underwhelming, the kindness and professionalism of several staff members made my stay reasonably good.

We had a lovely stay at Ensana, Buxton Crescent. The room exceeded expectations & the Spa & swimming pool was perfect. The only criticism during our stay was the evening meal at the restaurant. We didn’t feel the food & service given matched the quality you would expect from a 5 star hotel. There are plenty of choices within walking distance of the hotel which we preferred.

Fantastic hotel in central Manchester - 2 minute walk to the metro. Lots of great bars and restaurants in walking distance. Hotel room was clean and spacious with comfy bed and electric blackout blind. Lovely swimming pool which guests can pre book for a one hour slot.
