Angel Hotel

We had such a wonderful stay at the Angel Hotel and couldn’t recommend it more highly! From the moment we arrived, the porters looked after our car with care and waitresses made us feel so welcome — nothing was too much trouble, and they truly went above and beyond for our family. The housekeeping team kept everything absolutely spotless, with incredible attention to detail that really made a difference. It’s clear the whole team takes great pride in what they do. We also treated ourselves to afternoon tea, which was fantastic, and enjoyed delicious fish and chips the next day both were top quality! If you’re looking for a hotel with outstanding service, warm hospitality, and a relaxing atmosphere, this is the place to stay. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Went for lunch and had the Fish and Sips. Really nice boutique hotel on the square opposite the cathedral. Food really good, staff friendly, good value for money and nice atmosphere

Very disappointing we were served the wrong afternoon tea despite me checking the sandwiches were dry they said thanks for letting them know and that was it no offer of goodwill I asked and was ignored do not recommend

As mentioned a number of times on TA, noise & the quality of some bedrooms is a real problem especially at £200+ per night. We viewed our fellow guest bedrooms and some had clearly been updated however ours was sadly in need of renovation. Facing a road, the room had one window containing two large panels of 3mm glass (probably fitted in the 1970's) which could not be fully closed & was covered in condensation when we entered. The noise from passing cars, people & motorbikes throughout the night made sleeping near impossible. ISS

We have just returned from a stay at The Angel Hotel and we were there for DB&B celebrating our wedding anniversary. What a wonderful stay we had. Room was beautiful, copper bath just divine and food incredible. Lovely town yo browse around. Thoroughly recommend 👌👏

This is a lovely historic building in the heart of Bury. Staff are very professional and helpful. Rooms are all to a high standard. I had a very superior room, huge, free standing bath, writing desk, arm chairs and spacious shower / toilet room. Bathrobes are provided and lovely fancy mugs for tea plus border biscuits. Very comfortable but be aware there are lots of flights of steps of various sizes and rooms at the front can be noisy from traffic. The restaurant was also extremely noisy, I ate in the bar area instead. Food is rather "cheffy", very gourmet. Great wine selection. Breakfast has to be ordered rather than a buffet and portions are very generous.

Typing this at 715am on a Saturday morning, woken at 6.45 by the very intrusive road noise. Room 118: one of their best rooms, has 3 large sash windows which do nothing. Don't stay in this room. The restaurant and bars were great, the hotel has a great vibe. But, it is seriously let down as the quality of sleep is poor. We have stayed here many times, the last was dreadful for the same reason (disruptive room noise) and were upgraded to this room by way of an apology, not good enough. So, we won't be back us and the Angel are now done!

A lovely looking setting for Afternoon Tea, but actually the chairs were too low compared to the table. The food was good quality, and some of the hot savouries, especially the lamb, were superb. There were 3 small sandwiches per person, and completely contrary to my expectations they were made with thick sliced bread. Sandwiches traditionally are made with thinly sliced bread. The fillings were ham, smoked salmon, and a fairly slimy egg mayo. OK, but apart from the salmon, nothing special. The scones were good, and whilst I would have preferred to have individual portions of jam and cream there was plenty between us. There was a great choice of tea, and some coffee. The whole atmosphere was ‘off’. Instead of a relaxing environment, often with unobtrusive music, it was loud, busy with an almost constant stream of people passing by, and another customer had very strongly smelling fish and chips. The reason I have not given a lower score is solely due to our waiter. When I eventually could stand the constant motion around me no more I complained to him. He immediately found us another table in a quiet corner, transferred everything over, and even brought us fresh tea. We ended up having the relaxing time we had hoped for from the outset. I wish I had asked his name.

The hotel itself is lovely and a great location. Parking is very near so excellent for not so mobile people. This is my 3rd time eating there and on other occasions it’s been ok but today was disappointing. I had steak and chips. Whilst the steak was lovely somehow the mushroom was burnt and the chips had obviously been warmed and cooked again. They were black, dry crisp and hollow. Very poor when you serve food at quite high prices.

We had the Valentine's package. Overnight stay, dinner in the vaults, live music, breakfast in the morning. The room was lovely. I've stayed in a lot of hotel rooms lately and this was probably the best overall. There is usually something that you can fault or feel could be changed, but this was literally faultless. The dining experience was perfect. A set menu is always a bit scary but the food was amazing. The breakfast was great and the service throughout the whole experience was amazing. Points of note just as feedback. The booking material had two different check out times. One said 11 and one said late checkout up until 12. There was mention in the booking of a complimentary cocktail on arrival. This was not mentioned to us when we arrived and so I didn't bother to pursue it. I didn't need a cocktail ( although I would have drunk it 😂) so it wasn't an issue, just something to maybe clarify for the future?
