Holiday Inn Manchester Airport
4.6/584 Reviews
Booked this hotel as there was a train strike the day of my flight. Also it's right next to the airport and slightly cheaper than Radissons inside the airport. However, there were no signs from the train station for the hotel. I ended walking around roundabouts I'm not supposed to be on! Turned out I should have walked inside the airport to get out nearer the hotel. Bit of a queue at check in, but ok otherwise. Room was comfy, with a settee. The coffee cups seem to leak- both of them! Would appear to be the material the cups were made of. Big soft towels were a delight. Separate bottles on the wall for shower gel, shampoo, conditioner. Good shower, options of normal and rain shower in a big shower area. Check out was easy, I didn't pay for breakfast. I did a short run in the morning around the hotel car park! Needs must... Overall, I would recommend it, as long as you know how to walk to the hotel from the airport safely! I would recommend the hotel liaise with the airport about signage. If there were signs and I missed it, then they need to be prominent, including detailed directions on the website.
Holiday Inn Manchester - Central Park
3.7/546 Reviews
Apart from the lady at reception who didnt seem too interested in me on my arrival, the hotel was fine. I had a main course and a beer in the restaurant area, where the bar / waiting staff were helpful & friendly. Food was delivered quickly, which was hot & tasty with no issues. Room was a good size, clean & tidy, with adequate facilties for my stay. Request a room not facing on to the main road, as it starts to get noisy with traffic early in the morning.
Holiday Inn Manchester - West
4.5/5117 Reviews
First of all I want to say the staff are lovely and can’t do enough for you. The hotel is in a great location and if you’re out with friends in Manchester and just need somewhere to lay your head for one night then this place will do. But it’s not exactly the ritz Carlton. The carpets in the room were dirty, I wore flip flops inside the room the entire time. The chair in the room was also dirty. There was a hair on one of the cushions on the bed that wasn’t mine. But the bathroom was the biggest disappointment. I showered on the night but then left in the morning and opted to go home to wash again. The toilet roll holder was broken so the toilet roll kept dropping on the floor. There were cracks in the wall and floor tiles and in the sink. There was rust on the rail on the side of the bath. It was just very unpleasant on a whole and in desperate need of redecorating. The rooms shouldn’t be more than £40 a night at best.
Holiday Inn Manchester - City Centre, an IHG Hotel
4.6/5107 Reviews
City Centre
Excellent location. Just 5 minutes walking from Manchester Piccadilly Station. We could get to city center and public transportation in walking distance. The room is clean and comfortable. There is quiet enough space for two. What might be a problem is we could hear trams passing by even we stay in the 5th floor.
