Guest Reviews

• Zolana (2/5): - Property was closed
• Jhan Michael (10/5): - Staff are amazing and facilities exceeded expectations. Food was excellent. Nothing
• Jhan Michael (10/5): -
• martin (10/5): - Easy check in. Friendly professional staff at check in and the restaurant. Easy parking and great food - what more could you want.
• Debra (10/5): - Our dinner at the hotel was wonderful! Great food & staff were lovely.
• Manish (10/5): Friendly and bubbly Staff - The service in the pub was great and very friendly.
• Mark (10/5): Lovely room - Excellent accommodation No breakfast served
• Nicola (1/5): We didn’t ! - The venue was closed for refurbishment so to say we were disappointed would be an understatement! That it was closed on arrival
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Bed was too soft for me ( not comfortable). Room is very basic.
• Helen (10/5): Lovely ambience and friendly staff. Rooms were clean and comfortable would definitely recommend and book again - Really lovely staff. Professional and friendly and couldn’t be more helpful! Nothing. All good!
• Will (10/5): -
• Elaine (10/5): -
• Fortlady (10/5): We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Broadoak, which is a traditional English Pub with Rooms. - The Broadoak was perfect for our requirements. We would definitelly look to stay there again if we were to be in the Manchester area. Despite having a popular Restaurant on site, it is a pity that The Broadoak does not offer Breakfast. However, there is an excellent cafe called the Bean and Bun just a short walk away in Broadoak Crescent, which offers an excellent Breakfast Menu. Would highly recommend this Cafe, which also offers Indian meals as well as English food, until approximately 21.00 in the evening.
• Kathryn (10/5): We were there part of a funeral party made welcome and comfortable - Clean Restaurant food excellent Staff pleasant friendly and helpful No breakfast
• Mohamed (8/5): Comfortable - Location was good, clean The bar was noisy
• Kev (1/5): Booking process - See above Closed for renovation. Booking.com fault not the hotel
• Stephanie (3/5): Dreadful - don't stay here - The location was the only good point. I would not stay here again I have tried to email the hotel and Booking.com to complain but have had no response - so I will list the problems here. . No breakfast onsite . To leave the hotel before 11am in the morning you have to go down an outside fire escape. We were with my elderly parents and while they could access the fire escape it was not appropriate that this was the only way out in a NON EMERGENCY . The rooms had damaged fittings eg the blinds in my parents room was broken, there were handles missing off the drawers in our room . The rooms were generally shabby - not 4 star . There were no non-slip mats for the shower or bath in the rooms - these had to be requested when required and the staff reminded when they didn't appear. . The hairdryer PAT test was out of date . The room was not serviced (we stayed 2 nights) even though we left the appropriate notice on the door
• John (1/5): We only stayed for 20 mins, whilst we confirmed the hotel was closed & found alternative accom. - Nothing to like as could not stay. The hotel was a building site when we arrived, as it was being refurbished. The workmen told us it had been closed for 3 weeks. We did not stay. I called the numbers of the hotel, landline & mobile, but there was no answer. Still no answer today 5 days after we did not stay. No contact from Booking.Com either, other than to ask me to write a review. I consider it completely unacceptable to arrive at a property, find it has been closed for 3 weeks, & not have any contact from Booking.Com or The Broadoak Hotel before we travelled, so that we could arrange alternative accom. The only contact i have had from Booking.Com is to review the Broadoak Hotel, which is impossible as it was closed. No answer from Travelodge & Premier Inn wanted silly money so went back on Booking.Com & booked a room only, about 2 miles from this accom. Not as pleasant as this hotel might have been.
• Geoffrey (6/5): Great room. ( room number 4) - Location and big room No breakfast available
• Iain (1/5): Terrible rooms, don't stay here p - Friendly staff, and the food was good. The rooms are poor. Nothing like the photos on the website. Broken blinds, missing towels (it took 3 requests to get them provided), incomplete sets of toiletries, rooms not cleaned. Showers difficult to turn off. Broken hair dryers, one with it's latest PAT safety test over 7 years ago. Exit and entry via the fire escape once the pub closed and in the morning until about 11 am. No breakfast and the cafe opposite was also terrible. Not worth the money... you'd be better with a Travelodge.
• Robin (10/5): Will definitely stay again, great experience. - Everything about the Broadoak was great, rooms, restaurant and the staff were awesome. Nothing.
• Phil (1/5): Vastly overpriced, poor standards, don’t waste your money - Great location for a family get together Very poor standard of accommodation, hugely overpriced. The standard of cleaning was poor, we arrived to find toilet paper still in the toilet suggesting it hadn’t been cleaned! The toilet didn’t flush properly, the shower head was so old that water shot everywhere and one of the 3 blinds was broken and couldn’t be opened. There are no overnight staff and out of hours access was via a narrow, steep fire escape - this was not suitable for elderly relatives and was not clear at the time of booking. In addition the deflated Christmas decoration hanging over the front door in April summed up the attention to detail and care for this property. Vastly overpriced, don’t waste your money, they have yet to respond to my email of complaint.
• Wayne (1/5): Bad - There was no overnight staff to complain to about the noise from 11pm to 3.30am
• Melanie (9/5): Superb -
• Melanie (9/5): Superb -
• Ben (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michael (3/5): Very disappointed with the quality. - No breakfast available but good location. I walked into the room & the blinds had fallen of the window cill. I immediately informed the deputy manager who informed me he would come up & look. He never did. I had to turn the blind sideways to block out light & for privacy. The toilet wouldn’t flush whatsoever & there was paper in the toilet when I entered room. I had to use the bin full of water to flush toilet.
• Lisa (10/5): - Quiet little cottage above a pub. Loved the staff and the food was excellent
• Mayers (10/5): We had a very enjoyable stay at the Broadoak and we booked in at short notice. - We had a meal at the Broadoak both nights we stayed there and the food is homemade and delicious. Pub is very homely and friendly with at least one good ale on tap. They do not do breakfast but there is a cafe across the road that does and they were good too. The room was very comfortable and very clean. We did have to report that it was very difficult to turn the shower on and off and this was duly noted. We were only there for two nights so we did not think it was worth pointing out until the last night. We did manage the shower control even though we are both in our sixties. It was a very powerful shower once it was on.
• Shelley (10/5): Clean and welcoming - This time the sheet fitted the mattress Everything was good
• Catherine (8/5): It was lovely but it would have been good to have at least a self service continental buffet style breakfast. Thanks. - Location. Room size. No breakfast available.
• Mary (9/5): Superb - Clean, quiet, large room.
• Sarah (5/5): Could be fabulous with a bit more attention - The room was nice looking, toiletries etc nice and alternative milk a good touch. Evening Meal was lovely! Good quality bedding, room was quite cold but not a problem with a snuggly duvet! No option for breakfast which I didn't realise when booking, Pub was quite loud until closing time so no chance of an early night. Cleaning wasn't particularly thorough, bin wasn't emptied from previous guest, floors not brilliantly clean and lots of dust on tv etc. Parking was a bit of a free for all, vanity lights in bathroom didn't work.
• Varnam (10/5): Brilliant would highly recommend if not to stay to go for a meal. - The staff was great, food was lovely and very reasonable loved the room it was nice and comfy and the landlord could not do enough for you. For the amount of money that was spent for the room no breakfast was available.
• Shelley (10/5): A great place to stay - The lady who checked us in was lovely and welcoming The only thing about the king suite was the sheet didn’t fit the mattress
• Susan (8/5): Very nice hotel would definitely stay again. Much better than the large chain hotels - Room spotless, everything you need, tea,coffee,hot chocolate , biscuits, fruit juice,bottled water, iron,ironing board, large white towels . Staff attentive. Shown to our room personally and told anything we need let him know, Pub food cooked very well. Atmosphere in bar very good Having to leave by fire escape the next morning as no staff on duty
• David (10/5): Exceptional -
• Colette (8/5): Very good -
• Rashed (8/5): Very good -
• Joanne (6/5): Good - Staff very pleasant. Breakfast was not offered. Overall stay was good. Room dated, no spoon for the coffee. Cleanliness needs a little to be desired. Cobwebs in bathroom.
• Mary (8/5): Convenient and comfortable apart from fire escape. - Spacious room with good in-room facilities. The external fire escape for exit and entry at certain times is a bit daunting with a suitcase for someone older/less mobile.
• RICHARD MELLOR (8/5): Yep the place was alright - Above a busy pub but surprisingly quiet up in the room.
• Stuart (10/5): Excellent, great value for money staff friendly - Staff very friendly, Guinness was good, we didn’t eat but the food looked very good and looked at the menu seemed very reasonably priced, room was spacious clean and tidy we will be booking in again . Nothing was all good
• Peter (4/5): Generally in poor repair. - Location was good for me. The room was dirty, paper peeling of the ceiling and rust on the shower. Generally is poor state and past its best.
• s (2/5): 2 day work trip. - From arrival it was wrong. They told us we had only booked 1 room and not 2. This seemed to be because they had no clean rooms. We then had to wait while they placed the bar stock order. Eventually we got seen. We were taken around the rooms looking for clean ones. We ended up in a family room which had 2 rooms. This was very tired but we attempted to make do. Went for dinner, not good unfortunately. After returning to the room we started noticing more dirt, orange very stained spare pillow chucked in the wardrobe with 2 heaters and a iron. 2 ironing boards for some reason. Water stained walls. Pulled back the quilt cover and not convinced it hadn't been slept in. The mattress was just springs that bottomed out on the base. TV didn't work in the single room. Car parking limited. At this point we left and booked in somewhere else. Avoid, the advertising pictures don't seem to be the same. First time in twenty years of working away that I have had to walk out. Sad times.
• Jithin (8/5): Very good -
• John (9/5): I would stay again. All of the staff where excellent , - Great value A couple of small suggestions. 1 great to have a kettle and water along with tea and coffee in the room . A spoon to stir the tea and coffee would be helpful everything else is there. 2. I came from Oxfordshire and had the steak and ale pie. It was fine but very dry , I thought northerners like gravy it definitely could have done with some.
• Ceri (9/5): Enjoyable - No breakfast available
• Herdman (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gary (10/5): Exceptional - The hotel is easy to find, and great for transport into Manchester. The food was excellent, plenty of it, and great price. Rooms lovely and comfortable and clean. No, breakfast, but great place directly opposite to get breakfast.
• Hann (7/5): Rainy Saturday night - We were allowed to check in earlier and staff were very friendly. We really enjoyed our lunch which was hot and tasty and my fish and chips was a decent size. Only 1 bath towel Blood stain on sheet Radiator in bathroom not working No t spoons for making hot drinks
• Vishnu (8/5): Very good -
• Richard (8/5): Very good -
• Corinne (9/5): Lovely staff and hotel - Location was good' hotel was lovely would recommend I would like checkout to be 12.
• Freddie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sean (10/5): A trip down memory lane... - great location for what we wanted Massive comfortable bed, and a huge room Great pint of Robinsons Unicorn and decent grub.. Rag pudding! The friendliest staff ive encountered on our travels All good
• Gary (10/5): Excellent value for money - The hotel is smal and only about 6 rooms. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and could not have asked for more from them. The food was very tasty and not overly priced £16 for a 3 course meal, with excellent choice. Rooms very comfortable, clean and spacious. Easy for buses to/from Manchester, Metrolink/trainline short drive away. There was no breakfast in morning, not a problem, as lovely cafe opposite. They could give you a voucher to be used at the cafe, this would then support other local businesses. The bar side closed early if no one on premises, but understandable, other pub, within 500 yards
• Cindy (10/5): Exceptional - What a wonderful hotel staff were lovely it was very clean room was a good size.we dined with them the food was really good and the cocktails were even better.they don't do breakfast but there is a lovely little cafe just across the road Nothing
• Sam (10/5): Exceptional - Property was amazing you do have a very bad leak
• Barry (8/5): Comfortable place to stay and quiet. - Quiet. Easy distance from Tram. Parking on site Had a rude note fixed to the cars on return to the accommodation threatening to clamp the vehicle (even though this would be an illegal act) as the parking was for residents only. I had previously informed them that I would be leaving the cars there for the day and they confirmed that this was ok. The person checking us in did not apologise for this and ignored it. Rather disappointed.
• Tony (9/5): Superb - Very friendly staff, couldn't do enough for us. The semi cold shower in the morning but it won't stop me from staying there again.
• Mariaclaire (10/5): Exceptional -
• Joe (10/5): Great great great. Would highly recommend - Great location and the staff were brilliant. Very welcoming regulars in the bar too. I would definitely stay here again.

Staff were great and really helpful, even brought my dinner up for me which isnt normally on option, so went above and beyond. Will go back when working near there again nothing
• Christine (10/5): Exceptional -
• Craig (8/5): Very good -
• Jörg (7/5): Ok experience. Would have been great value for 20% less. - Good location for us. Accommodation clean and functional, looking a bit dated. Good assortment of complimentary refreshments on the room. Not too much atmosphere in the pub. Did not make us feel we wanted to be down there for a drink.
• Dan (10/5): - Very good value for money. Staff were very nice. Checked in early. We walked down to the tram in Ashton and took the tram to the City game (25 mins). Made it very easy. Room condition was good and spacious.
• david (10/5): - Lovely clean room met by Jess who was amazing shown around room Lovely people and a lovely hotel and bar Highly recommend
• Denise (10/5): Exceptional - We were able to arrive early very welcoming and informative staff Nothing
• Joanne (8/5): - Staff were excellent. Room was nice but not very clean. Cobwebs in bathroom and no mattress protector or fitted sheet on bed. Ate in restaurant and food and service was very good.
• Christopher (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michelle (3/5): Nothing amazing. I won’t stay again for that price. - Location Noise, no cleaning of the room. No cooked breakfast option.
• Christine (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alan (9/5): Superb -
• Dave (9/5): Superb -
• Julie (9/5): Superb -
• Kt (10/5): Exceptional -
• David (7/5): Good - Location and bar/restaurant food No breakfast facilities
• John (8/5): Pleasant, relaxing and enjoyable stay with lovely hosts. - There was no breakfast option, however Dave the bar manager recommended the Bean and Bun across the road. We ordered a full English with coffee and it didn't disappoint. All the staff in the Broadoak Hotel were extremely friendly & helpful, even if you need a cab in a hurry you just have to ask. We ordered fish and chips for our evening meal and it was delicious. Bed was lovely and comfortable which made for a great night sleep. I would highly recommend this establishment for food and accommodation. Well done to Dave and all the team at the Broadoak Hotel. The hotel was situated in an area that suited our plans as we were attending a party that was near by. The seating in the bar/lounge area could do with new upholstery. I do believe there is going to be some renovations to the bar/ lounge area and this will only improve on the experience.
• Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anna (10/5): Exceptional - Ease of check-in, delightful & helpful staff (organised a local taxi for us), delicious and good price point food. Lovely room, comfortable bed, no traffic noise, so slept soundly. Too short a stay!
• Timothy (10/5): - Excellent staff, lovely presented and clean room. I would recommend this hotel.
• Danni (10/5): 2 nights stay - Friendly staff very helpfull.very clean..food from pub was excellent. I am disabled but stairs wasn't steap..parking was right outside..the bed was huge and very comfortable The only thing I didn't like was I couldn't get into the bath to shower so would of preferred a shower unit
• Emily (5/5): Passable - We didn’t go in. We took one look and decided not to. There were rough gangs around the pub and very drunk and rowdy people at the front. Sorry that we didn’t give the place a chance but we weren’t happy to get out of the car and walk through the gangs gathered.
• Margaret (8/5): Very good - Friendly staff, comfortable room Wasn't informed that there was a party on until midnight
• Joseph (7/5): Good -
• Gareth (7/5): Let just say over priced for what you get but can’t complain about the staff - Good location staff were friendly Needs a little work lots of broken item. Curtains broken tv remote not working toilets dirty and needs to offer breakfast.
• Berit (8/5): Comfortable stay and friendly staff - good experience. - The check in and check out was very smooth and simple. As it was a lively pub I was concerned about noise, but we did not hear anything once in the room. Rooms were very comfortable. Car park was very full on arrival so not easy to park.
• Nicola (8/5): Great rooms and friendly staff but disappointed at lack of food and drink - Staff very friendly and welcoming. Rooms spacious, clean and well equipped. The only reason I perhaps would not stay again was the fact the bar closed so early. After a long journey we arrived approx 9 pm, shown to our room. We dropped our bags and headed downstairs for a much needed drink only to be told they were closing but could serve us a drink to take to our room. We booked this place specifically because it had access to food and drink so this was extremely disappointing.
• Whaite (7/5): Good -
• Rob (9/5): Superb -
• Heather (7/5): Good -
• Steve (10/5): Excellent - The overnight stay was excellent the food very good. The service and attention from the staff was really excellent they were all really sweet and thoughtful I will certainly stay here again.
• Tracey (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast would have been lovely
• Adrian (9/5): Probably the best pillows I’ve ever slept on. -
• Debra (6/5): - Stayed here for one night as we were attending a wedding. The room was ok but the shower was dirty and showerhead and extractor were filthy. We got told if we came back after 10pm the pub door would be locked and we'd have to use the fire escape to get in which i found bizzare. We did get back at 10.20 and the door was locked so we had to use fire escape to get to our room, luckily we wasnt that drunk. My partner had to go down to the bar about 11.30pm bexause they were playing music really loud so he went to ask them to turn it down which they did. We would definitely not stay here again.
