Manchester Hotels

This hotel is quite conveniently located next to a junction near the M60 Manchester ring road and next to a road straight into city centre. Though the deco and fixtures/fittings are now outdated somewhat, the room is reasonably clean. There was free wifi internet access though the website said there wasn't any. Wifi connection could be obtained upstairs in the room too, though the speed is slower. The lift couldn't go to the top floor and we had to walk up one floor by the stairs. But overall was good value for money.

Lovely old hotel, refurbed to nice standered but still keeping all the original bits.....cute!!! We took the upgrade but wished we hadn't bothered, it's so out of the main part, we got lost everytime we left or went to our rooms. Also this part of the hotel is used by air crew with do not disturb sign's out on all the doors. Note shouting out to close our doors quietly.....this at 8pm, so we found ourselfs creeping around.

Hotel is large with private free car park. It was busy, possibly due to having a restaurant, pub style bar and fitness centre on site. Was nervous when I saw that a wedding reception was there as this usually means noise. No problems as we were located on the 2nd floor at the other end of the hotel and never heard a thing. It must be close to the flightpath as the occassional aircraft was heard, but not enough to disturb us. Room was well presented, clean and tidy. Buffet style English breakfast was included and was good with plenty of choice. Only negative was the noisy, vocal wedding guests that had stayed over having breakfast, that meant you couldn't hear yourself think. Overall a pleasant stay, well worth the money. Would stay again.

The Midland is an excellent iconic hotel in the centre of Manchester. It is convenient for all highlights of town and the service is impeccable. The only thing that lets it down is the chaotic breakfast in the Colony Room. Surely a hotel of this standard can get a toaster that works!!

Very nice hotel, the staff was wonderful, rooms clean and comfortable. No top sheet, which I found strange since I doubt they wash the comforter every time someone sleeps in the bed. I got ripped off twice in a row by the internet, but there was a nice woman in the business office that let me use the crew computer for 10 minutes. Overall nice hotel and great location near the airport.

We stayed here recently and I must say it really is a fabulous hotel. The room was great, it was close to all the sites and the breakfast was fab. Most of the staff were helpful and polite. When we go back again we won't eat in the hotel restaurant tho...bit pricey for a family! Overall....fantastic :-D

Stayed night before my Graduation. Had relax in sauna, then a swim, then jakuzzi. Staff were lovely and the bar was huge and friendly. Couldn't have fallen more lucky with our choice of hotel, had a fab evening that really made my gead weekend even better!!!!

Stayed a single Saturday night in June. Good price through Hotels.com (note the basic advertised rack price is absurdly high). Check in quick and efficient, hotel looked clean and smart. Parking just by entrance a bit limited (not helped by two large coaches taking up space) and not secure - barriers fixed in up position. We were given a "disabled" room, pull cord alarms and notices in bedroom and bathroom. The benefit was that it was a lot larger than the majority of the rooms as shown on the hotel plan. Room on fourth floor overlooking car park and main road. Warm night so we needed the windows open and there was a fair amount of traffic noise but not enough to keep us awake. We did not eat in the hotel - prices in the restaurant looked high for a hotel - and we did not need breakfast. Note that price of breakfast doubles if you do not order it the night before. Location is very good for Salford Quays (The Lowry, Imperial War Museum etc) and for Old Trafford. the Metro Link tram stop is just across the street which gets right into the centre of Manchester in less than 15 minutes.

An extremely comfortable and luxury hotel to start off your holiday or after a long flight. The beds are so comfortable that you stay in the same position all night. The staff are professional and friendly and are happy to help.

Arrived with my daughter, for our first stay in Manchester, to a lovely, warm welcome and inviting surroundings. Hotel was very busy with Wedding parties but that did not hinder our check-in or customer service experience. When visting Oldham in the future i will search for the Swallow Bower as a must. Thank you to all the staff.
