Top Manchester Hotel Reviews

Clayton Hotel, Manchester Airport

Clayton Hotel, Manchester Airport

10/10 Excellent
"Room was lovely, clean and spacious, the staff were friendly at reception. The only down side was when we went to get the airport shuttle there was a rather large queue, so we ended up walking to terminal 3- thankfully only a short 10 minute walk but not ideal when an airport shuttle is advertised. We watched the shuttle bus from our room window and a round trip took about 20 minutes."

Britannia Hotel Manchester

8/10 Good
"Hotel still looks impressive and beautiful in parts, while looking behind the curtains will reveal how tired it is some places; my personal opinion as someone who has stayed there several times: if you can live with small flaws and don't need a modern decor in the rooms, the Britannia offers good value for money and the location is just perfect (very central); please also keep in mind that room prices are usually below those of other hotels in the area."
