Worst nights sleep I've ever had. Staff were great but threadbare stained carpets , stained furniture. Lumpy bed, and a high pitched noise from the bedroom all night. If I'd been able to stay anywhere else I would have

Convenient hotel

The hotel is located at a convenient place with many restaurants and shops around. The room felt quite dated and could benefit from some refurbishment. The breakfast is free but the restaurant is too crowded.

Basic hotel. Expected more.

Basic hotel, a bit dated. For 4 people the room was very small. Good central location but quite loud at night. Breakfast buffet could have more choice. I expected more from a Holiday Inn and the price we paid.

Great Location and Price

Great hotel, great location, we were going to a gig at Gorilla..3 min walk. Car park nearby and not overly expensive (I've paid a lot more to stay and park in Manchester)...Bit of a walk if you want to go into the main shopping area.
