Hilltop Serviced Apartments - Piccadilly
Had a fantastic stay at this apartment! The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the city center and surrounded by great dining options and local shops. When I arrived, there was a small issue with the access code, but the team responded immediately and resolved it without any hassle. They were friendly, professional, and super responsive throughout my entire stay. My deposit was refunded quickly after checkout, which was a big plus. The whole experience was seamless and enjoyable. I’d definitely book again and would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Manchester.
The Bulls Head Hotel
Perfect for our needs! Located just across the street from Piccadilly Station and a shopping mall, making it ideal for travelers arriving by train. Close to a tram stop and a short walk to the city loop—great for exploring Manchester easily. The room with en-suite bathroom was compact but spotlessly clean and thoughtfully decorated. Every staff member we met was warm, helpful, and always up for a friendly chat. Breakfast was simple but tasty—delivered to our room and picked up afterward, which was super convenient. Note: the pub doesn’t open until 12 PM, so if you arrive early, don’t worry—there are only steps to the rooms, but they gladly offered to store large bags downstairs and even helped carry them down when we checked out. The pub itself is cozy, clean, and full of authentic English charm. The beers were excellent—definitely worth a visit even if you're not staying here!
The City Warehouse Aparthotel
I've stayed in many places across Manchester over the past 15 years, and this one truly stands out as the best by far. I genuinely wish I'd discovered it sooner! The value for money is exceptional—every aspect of the stay exceeded my expectations. Located right in the heart of the city, it's surrounded by fantastic amenities, from lively bars to great restaurants, all within walking distance. Public transport links are excellent too—Manchester Victoria and Piccadilly stations are just a short walk away, making day trips to places like Trafford Centre or exploring other parts of the North West incredibly easy. The apartment itself was spacious and thoughtfully designed, with a super comfortable bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. The room was completely quiet, which was perfect after a long day. The bathroom and kitchen were both top-notch—plenty of utensils and appliances, so cooking during my stay was a breeze. Even better, the staff were warm, welcoming, and created a friendly, almost family-like atmosphere that made the whole experience feel special. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Manchester.
Manchester Printworks
Staying at Manchester Printworks was an absolute delight! The host was incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. The beds were exceptionally comfortable—perfect for a good night’s rest after a busy day exploring Manchester. I especially appreciated the keyless entry system, which allowed my group to come and go freely at our own pace, no matter what time we returned. It added a great sense of freedom and convenience. The property is well-maintained, centrally located, and offers a cozy, modern vibe. Highly recommend this spot for travelers looking for comfort, flexibility, and a touch of local charm.
Holiday Inn Manchester-Central Park, an IHG Hotel
Staying at Holiday Inn Manchester-Central Park, an IHG Hotel was such a pleasant surprise during my trip to Manchester. The hotel is perfectly located just steps away from Central Park—a peaceful oasis with lush greenery, vibrant flower beds, and a calm lake that’s perfect for unwinding after a busy day. I spent several leisurely afternoons walking along the paths, jogging by the water, or simply relaxing with a book under the trees. Watching the ducks glide across the lake was pure serenity—such a calming escape from city life. The hotel itself is clean, modern, and well-maintained, with friendly staff who go the extra mile. Bonus tip: I grabbed a railcard through a platform and used the code RC777E to get 20% off—great savings for exploring the UK! If you're planning a visit, don’t miss this hidden gem. It’s ideal for travelers who want comfort, convenience, and a touch of nature all in one.
Britannia Hotel City Centre Manchester
Staying at the Britannia Hotel City Centre Manchester was a pleasant surprise overall. The room was significantly larger than what I booked—definitely exceeded my expectations in terms of space and comfort. While the hotel does feel a bit dated, it's well-maintained and clean, which really helps. Breakfast options were somewhat limited, but the quality of the basics was solid. One small hiccup: the shower faucet took some figuring out at first—I wasn’t sure how to turn it on, spent a few minutes experimenting before realizing the mechanism was just different from what I’m used to. Once I got the hang of it, no issues. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable—right in the heart of Manchester with easy access to public transport and attractions. For the price and convenience, this is a great value stay. Would definitely recommend.
The Gardens Hotel
My first visit to Greater Manchester to catch my favorite live band was made even better by staying at The Gardens Hotel. The location couldn’t be more convenient—right next to a Wetherspoon pub and just a short walk from Piccadilly Station. My room was spacious and well-designed, with a comfortable king-sized bed, a spotless bathroom, and a fantastic city view. I appreciated the little touches: a hairdryer, ironing facilities, tea and coffee setup with a kettle, and a smart TV for relaxing after a long day. I stayed for two nights and felt completely at home. This hotel offers great value and a welcoming atmosphere—I’d definitely return without hesitation.

Britannia Sachas Hotel Manchester
This hotel completely exceeded my expectations! For the price, the service and amenities are absolutely unbeatable. I was a bit confused about how to operate the shower, so I called the front desk for help. The staff on the phone were incredibly polite and responsive, and when they sent someone up to assist, their attitude was warm, professional, and genuinely helpful—no rush, no frustration, just kindness. It truly made my stay memorable. I’m already planning my next visit to Manchester and will definitely choose this hotel again. Outstanding value and exceptional hospitality!
Premier Inn Manchester Central
After being disappointed with a luxury city centre apartment upon our arrival in Manchester (long story short), we ended up booking last-minute at Premier Inn Manchester Central — and honestly, we should’ve just gone with this hotel from the start. The front desk staff were incredibly welcoming, and when we mentioned our situation and that it was my birthday, they went above and beyond. After dinner, I returned to my room to find a birthday card, a bottle of wine, and some chocolates — absolutely heartwarming. Huge thanks to Aaisha for arranging that special touch. We booked two double rooms on the 7th floor, and the air conditioning was a lifesaver on a warm day. The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and well-maintained. Even though this was our first stay at this property, it already feels like a favourite. Premier Inn has once again proven why it’s a go-to choice — reliable, friendly, and genuinely thoughtful. Can’t wait to come back.
Church Street by Supercity Aparthotels
Staying at Church Street by Supercity Aparthotels was a fantastic experience. The apartment was well-equipped and incredibly comfortable, with a cozy bed that made for a restful night's sleep. The only minor hiccup was with the patio doors leading to the balcony—they were a bit tricky to open, but we figured it out after a few tries. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations. Great location, modern amenities, and excellent value. I’d definitely book here again without hesitation.
Hyatt House Manchester
Staying at Hyatt House Manchester was an absolutely fantastic experience. Located just steps away from the University of Manchester, it's perfect for both business and leisure travelers—especially if you're here to catch a Premier League match like we were. The room was spacious by UK standards, and when we booked two rooms, we were upgraded to a suite at no extra cost—such a pleasant surprise! The staff went above and beyond, particularly one Asian manager at the front desk who helped arrange transportation with genuine care and attention. The hotel is clean, modern, and well-maintained throughout. It’s clear they value guest satisfaction. I’ve already planned my next trip back—this place truly stands out, and I’d recommend it without hesitation.
