A welcoming DoubleTree hotel in Manchester
When we first arrived in Manchester, we chose to stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Manchester Piccadilly, located at 1 Auburn Street. The location of the hotel is really convenient. Manchester Piccadilly train station is just a few steps away. The subway and tram stations are also nearby. It is very friendly for travelers.
The location of this hotel is perfect, within walking distance to the city center's main attractions and shopping areas. The hotel's decoration style is modern and simple, and the rooms are fully furnished, clean and comfortable. The reception at the front desk was very warm. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by delicious chocolate cookies 🥰, which really made us feel warm. The hotel's facilities are also very complete, with comfortable restaurants and bars, where people can relax after a busy day of sightseeing.
After moving into the room, I felt great. We stayed in a king room which was a good size and clean. The bedding was super comfortable, but a little disappointing, the bed felt a little wobbly. The room is fully equipped with a refrigerator, safe, iron, hair dryer, Nestle capsule coffee machine and various tea sets to meet various needs. Moreover, the air conditioning in the room is still a bit noisy, so it is best to wear earplugs when sleeping at night.
If you don’t want to miss out on Manchester’s delicious food, there are many good restaurants recommended around the hotel. For example, the Italian food at Giovanni's and the Asian food at Tampopo Albert Square are both great. If you like Japanese food, you can also go to Teppanyaki Chinatown to try it, you will definitely not be disappointed.
Although the overall experience was very welcoming, there were some minor drawbacks. For example, the cleanliness of the bathroom needs attention, there are hairs of the previous guest on the floor, and the hotel management should strengthen the details in this regard. Also, the room rate is a bit expensive, especially since breakfast is not included in the room rate, which is a bit disappointing.
Overall, this stay in Manchester was very pleasant, especially the warm service and heartwarming cookies of DoubleTree Hilton, which were really unforgettable. If you have the opportunity to come to Manchester, this would be a good choice. 😊
