Great girls weekend away

The Place apts were great, just round the corner from Picadilly station, we got an upgrade on arrival to a superior 2 bed apartment. It was lovely, really spacious with fab views across the city, they come well equipped and it made for a great place to relax in between shopping, eating, drinking & dancing! Would recommend and use again when in Manchester.

A mixed bag

Our one-bedroom partment was reasonably well-appointed, though the bedroom was rather cramped - odd use of space since the bathroom was large despite being a simple WC and overbath shower. Room service was prompt and the dishes were good value. Staff were very helpful and the breakfasts were very good. However the building was very noisy at times, especially on the Saturday evening with many of the apartments occupied by groups of people. Some of these groups were considerate but at least one was vulgar in its excesses. The design of the building is attractive but does nothing to mitigate noise. The room was in need of a thorough clean - not filthy, but the floor needed a proper onceover.

Amazing location, superb value

Comfortable, spotlessly clean apartment with absolutely everything you could want, all just 2 minutes from Piccadilly Station. Food available on site if you want it, quality shops on the station concourse if you don't. Knowledgable, friendly staff on duty at all times. Apologies to the other hotels in Manchester, but from now on I don't need to stay anywhere else! This really has it all.

Apartment life

Loved staying at the Place Apt Hotel. All the rooms were apartments. Came with full kitchen complete with dishes,etc. Also had tea and coffee and a pint of milk in the fridge. The location is wonderful as it is a 5 min walk to the Picadilly train station. I recommend this hotel to everyone!

Buy a Brit rail pass . We had a party pass (group of 4) and saved over $200. You have the added benefit of being able to hop any train.

Great place to mix business and pleasure

I stayed a week at The Place in Manchester. My trip was a blend of business and pleasure and the hotel just added to it. The location is ideal...just off the main shopping strip and a short walk around the corner to the train station. The apartments are spacious and well appointed. I was so happy to find a washer/dryer combo as well as everything a good kitchen should provide. I used the health club and a few occasions and it had good updated equiptment and was never crowded..yea! Would I come back...you bet!

Great hotel for more than a week

Wonderful, helpful staff, lovely little apartment. Bottom of the Piccadilly approach is great for a location, close to everything you'd need in the city plus trains/trams. Didn't use the hotel restaurant (too many pies to eat!) Bathroom was a little small, but who cares?! Room was quiet as anything, even with a rowdy wedding party at the bar. Thanks, really enjoyed the stay!
