Kimpton CLOCKTOWER HOTEL
4.4/584 Reviews

Kimpton CLOCKTOWER HOTEL

City Centre Manchester|0.38km from Gay Village
If first impressions are your thing, the Kimpton Clocktower will take your breath away. I arrived in the afternoon after a drive from Oxford, and from the moment the automatic doors opened in the lobby, I was amazed. The decor is beautiful and classic. Mixing an old world style with modern touches. I had a slight hiccup at the front desk since most hotels have become cashless. I’m thankful for the front desk manager that came over and gave me the customer service I expected from this hotel since the other attendant was quite cold and lacking the type of communication it takes to be at the front desk. Once that was settled I went to the room, which was stunning. It was spacious and they really spared no detail to make it feel luxurious. Not to mention it was extremely clean. The bathroom was spotless which is always the first place I look. The hotel is located quite central to everything. Restaurants and shops are at the doorstep, and it’s just a short walk to the city center. I would definitely stay in this hotel again…and you should too.
Hotel Gotham
4.4/5139 Reviews

Hotel Gotham

City Centre Manchester|0.53km from Gay Village
From start to finish, our stay was fabulous! We visited for my husbands birthday and the staff really made us feel special! The concierge were great and looked after my car and luggage for us and offered us water bottles for the way home. Reception brought us cocktails on arrival which was a lovely touch! When we first arrived to our room, there was a very nice treat plate saying ‘happy birthday!’ which was a lovely gesture. The room was clean and the bed was very comfy and spacious. Breakfast was absolutely delightful and the thought that has gone into the theme of the hotel is amazing! Even my toast (which was freshly baked bread!) came in a little ‘money bag’. I think my only ‘issue’.. and I use that term extremely loosely!!.. was the price tags on ornaments and dressing gowns etc… it felt a little gauche for a 5* hotel. Although I completely understand their reasoning behind it because they are fantastic ornaments.. it did make us panic a little and check everything was in the room before we could relax because we didn’t want to be charged for things! The price list in the ‘Gotham bugle’ was probably enough. It also confused us a little as to what was complimentary because the only thing stated as complimentary was water. Overall, we will definitely stay there again! Thank you for an amazing experience.

Small Luxury Hotels of the World - Stock Exchange Hotel

Small Luxury Hotels of the World - Stock Exchange Hotel

City Centre Manchester|0.66km from Gay Village
Stayed at the stock exchange for 1 night over the weekend, and had an absolutely fantastic stay! The hotel itself is beautiful, with the history of the hotel maintained in the restoration. The quality of the rooms, and general furnishing throughout the hotel are all very tasteful and of night quality. All of the staff we interacted with were also fantastic and couldn’t help enough We dined at the bull and bear for dinner and breakfast and enjoyed drinks at sterling which were both excellent, and highly recommended. The area where this hotel really excels are the little touches. These little elements such as Champagne and cake on arrival, check in conducted in the comfortable lounge, water provided on departure, umbrellas and shoe horns in the room are some great touches that really set this hotel above others in Manchester. The only element that I was surprised the hotel did not provide was a turn down service. Highly recommend a stay at this hotel.

The Edwardian Manchester, A Radisson Collection Hotel

City Centre Manchester|0.68km from Gay Village
We only stayed for one night me and my partner, we arrived late and wanted to go out to eat. Great location, walking distance for everything you need from bars to restaurants from Brazilian to Thai food or British pub food. We pushed our luck being late and the man on reception was brilliant and his service was fantastic and recommended some lovely places. After a long day our room had everything we needed, walk in shower, robes, super king bed and room service. We skipped breakfast and booked the pool for 9am which is included and was just perfect, the reason for our stay was to do the tour of old Trafford and the hotel certainly made our trip more worth while.

The Townhouse Manchester

City Centre Manchester|0.18km from Gay Village
Rooms are clean and tidy. Lovely comfy bed but pillows need replacing as falling apart There was no hairdryer in our room but this was quickly rectified once we asked for one, We had a lovely chilled stay in our room but would not recommend the in house restaurant. I have left a separate review of that..👎 Reception and cleaning staff who we met around the hotel were super friendly. We were on floor 5 and it was so peaceful. If I hadn’t heard a shower (very quiet) next door I would have thought we were the only ones on that floor. Hotel is just a short walk from everywhere so in a good position… Only criticism is the hotel is so hot and I mean hot. You melt at reception when you check in. Also we couldn’t get the air con to work in our room so it was. Constantly 19 degrees

The room itself was nice and clean. Reception basically can not see people, wifi password can not find people to ask. I heard loud noises from next door from 8:00 to 8:00 in the morning. The whole hotel is very abnormal, giving people a very unsafe feeling. Downstairs is the flagship store of gay bar street.

Clayton Hotel Manchester City Centre

City Centre Manchester|0.16km from Gay Village
Not impressed to be honest! Booked to stay in an executive room but there wasn’t anything executive about it, we had no fridge or water which I read on their website is included, there were also no leaflets or information of any kind in the room which was really strange, because we checked in late after being at a local concert I didn’t want to call about the fridge but it was disappointing. Aircon in the room made no difference, room was very warm and even though I turn the fan to its highest and the temp to its lowest it made no difference. Was disappointed with breakfast, cheap sachets of sauces and even cheaper beans that tasted awful, my daughter tried the smoothie and it was so sour it was inedible,I tried it so can confirm why she wasn’t drinking it! Also cold hard croissants with nowhere you could have arm them up. I’d rather stay in the premier inn at least you have working aircon and a decent breakfast!!
Velvet Hotel

Velvet Hotel

City Centre Manchester|0.16km from Gay Village
Living in the first floor, the interior decoration is very unsuitable for the Chinese. The bed shelves are carved up and down, left and right, and the characters on the side of the bed. There is also a large mirror on the side of the bed. The left and right sides of the hotel are all bars and restaurants. It will not stop before 3am, especially the sound of drumming, although the sound is not loud, but the rhythm is similar to the heartbeat, which seriously affects the rest. Fortunately, the front desk service attitude is still very good, but also presented early, otherwise the shadow area is bigger.
Hotel Brooklyn Manchester

Hotel Brooklyn Manchester

City Centre Manchester|0.19km from Gay Village
What a fantastic wee hotel the Brooklyn is! We stayed here on the night of the 19th of June for one night before heading off abroad the next day. Great location and a very quirky little hotel far exceeding expectations and better than some of these corporate giants, loved it! Staff were all exceptional to us, friendly and professional always. Bar staff on that evening get a special mention as they were brilliant. Cocktails were out of this world, as stated by Cocktail Queen herself who I was travelling with. Loved the terrace style seating near the bar, never seen that before! Rooms were awesome, bathroom fantastic and I did have a good chuckle at the fact that you could see into the bathroom from the bedroom through a one-way glass panel, hilarious! Everything smelt so wonderfully clean in the building too and I could not fault this place at all! A wonderful stay and a big thanks to all the staff that were on that evening and the next day, you should all be exceptionally proud of yourselves!

Ibis Manchester Centre 96 Portland Street

City Centre Manchester|0.25km from Gay Village
Hotel was in a decent location from Piccadilly and the pubs I wanted to go. The hotel was quite well presented, hadn't stayed in an Ibis for quite a few years and was expecting the same sort of plastic type hotel rooms but I was pleasantly surprised at its nice decor and cleanliness. The only bad point is the window, i actually thought it must be open as it wasn't keeping out the noise from outside so maybe they could do with some double glazing
