Above average but needs some tweaks

I wish I could give 3.5 stars to be honest as 3 seems too low but I definitely don’t think I could give a 4. The location of the hotel is fab! Really close to lots of decent restaurants and bars, only 20 mins on the bus to old Trafford and the Trafford centre. The grounds of the hotel are lovely, I like the cobblestones as you walk in, I could swear there’s also a chocolate like scent that’s pumped throughout as well. The coffee shop is great and reasonably priced, couldn’t get enough lattes. We didn’t have any breakfast but I wish we did as it looked amazing. The staff are friendly and I like the fact they’re dressed casually, it makes me feel more relaxed for some reason. The decor in the rooms is nice, it has a scandi feel to it. I didn’t read the reviews but I have noticed others saying the same about the lights. They’re SO dark, it’s so difficult to get ready in the morning as you can’t see properly to put makeup on. The switches are incredibly annoying, all over the place so if you’re comfy in bed, you have to do a walk around to switch every one off. I found the bed quite uncomfortable to be honest, too hard for my liking and the pillows didn’t feel luxurious. The bathroom was nice, lovely hot shower but there was some black mould across some of the grout which for the price point, I was surprised at. I was quite disappointed that we didn’t have housekeeping, again for the price paid, it would have been nice to have fresh towels and the bed made. I’ve never not had this so perhaps my expectations are too high? The main reason for the stars down is the noise and temperature. There is basically no soundproofing above so when people walk above us, it’s like a herd of elephants, really annoying when you’re trying to sleep. The temperature was unbearable, so incredibly hot and this is from someone who usually runs cold. It was so hot I woke up feeling nauseous and had the driest throat. There is no air con which I understand given the buildings age but a fan would have been great. Overall an average stay but glad we tried somewhere new.

Great hotel

Amazing hotel in a great location. 10 minute walk from the train station which was easy. All staff were fantastic and so helpful. The rooms are gorgeous. We will be back.

Lovely relaxed base with easy, walkable access to the city

8.0

Better than expected quality and size of room with lovely big windows over looking the canal. The mini kitchen and lounge area were a most welcome surprise. Unfortunately, the double bed was two singles and they slipped apart in the night, but each bed was most comfortable. A minor hiccup in an otherwise great experience.
