Manchester Salford Quays

Nice comfortable room with views over the water (202). Pleasant enough room only one comfortable chair , could do with another as room big enough. Comfortable bed but pillows a bit soft for me and two to high. what happened to the choice they gave you at one time.p Only gripe is the single sheet toilet paper dispenser. Why can’t you just a loo roll.

Lovely hotel, friendly staff, lovely waterside location in Salford, one can board the tram to the City Centre or Eccles with only a five minute walk from the hotel. I stayed for the Coronation Street experience which was fantastic. It was, however, disappointing that one is required, in addition to paying a hotel fee, to pay for parking. I know this is a city hotel but that’s not the point. Parking should be in my opinion included in the price. Whilst this would not be a deterrent to me staying at the hotel in the future, it was a major letdown, as indeed were certain parts of the breakfast experience. The staff on duty were always friendly and attentive to detail, however I prefer to use a buffet system for my cooked meals. Here, a member of staff takes your order. The toaster also did not work properly. If one toasts a slice of bread, it is not cooked sufficiently however to place it in a second time results in the bread being overcooked, so no happy medium. Small glasses only provided for juice larger ones would be more suitable, and in addition they only had decaf instant coffee. I don’t like filtered coffee from the machine, it is too strong and bitter, I always have instant and instant only. Be that as it may, the quality of the food and service at breakfast was excellent. The hot food was delivered piping hot within minutes. Overall, I would definitely recommend and return.

I was walking past the hotel at 1.15pm on the night I was booked in. Not due to finish work till 11pm I thought let’s check in now if room is ready. The room was indeed ready. However I was asked to pay £15 for an early check. So the room is ready, but I can’t check in without paying extra. Obviously I declined and chose to check in at 11.30pm instead. Seems ridiculous to me. Hotel was ok. If you have more than one bag then negotiating the narrow corridors and multiple fire doors is a pain. 3rd party breakfast at the Beefeater next door was surprisingly decent. You wouldn’t want more than a night there but fir a quick sleep it’s fine
