- Kristel Haddock (1/5): -
- Russell (7/5): - Perfect location for a gay night out in Manchester. The thumping music until 4am. Which contradicts what I liked about it but I’m 55 and it wasn’t the best night sleep. I felt the price was a bit high at £96 for the small room for one night .
- Jean (7/5): Clean & presentable, nice staff & good area - Clean & ideal for short stay The communal doors were noisy & the tv was not working.
- Alexander MTTH (10/5): -

- Griffith (5/5): - Great location great staff spotless rooms Very noisy we were out till 4/5 musics on till late then washing machines start and road sweepers. So if your not bothered about sleep its great
- O'Connor (6/5): - Location and price Wanted to drop bags in earlier than check in time but long response time from host prevented that.
- Lauryn (10/5): -
- Laurent (2/5): Génial pour faire la fête mais impossible d’y dormir - L’emplacement et les chambres sont très bien, dommage qu’on ne puisse pas y dormir Mais il est IMPOSSIBLE d’y dormir. Toute la nuit jusqu’à 6h du matin il y a une discothèque sous nos pieds et l’insonorisation est très mauvaise, du coup on est dans la boîte de nuit. Un enfer!
- Rino_80 (8/5): - La posizione wow! Due passi dalla stazione Piccadilly. Funzionalaper aereoporto e/o spostamenti in altre città. Tutto ok.
- Giovanni (8/5): -

- Laila (5/5): -
- Diane (10/5): Clean and friendly staff and very helpful - Very clean Nothing
- Wesley (8/5): Great place to stay! - Nice room, good location, room was immaculately cleaned. Mattress really cumfy. Good checkout time. Unfortunately the only things I could pick fault with is that the hot water wasnt running so it was a cold shower (probably needed). Maybe more tea bags. Otherwise I would happily stay there again lovely place and great staff.
- Okabayashi (5/5): -
- Lorenzo (6/5): No care and consideration, expensive and approximate room - Central location Bad value for money. The bed was noisy and the mattress was extremely old and sagging. The room lacked basic furniture like bedside tables, a chair, or even a small table (despite the generous space), and no shelf to open a suitcase. The bathroom lacked shelves for toiletries and towel racks. The shower stall was broken and the showerhead was unsafe. In keeping with English tradition, the carpet on the floor was unsanitary and impossible to clean.
- SEBASTIAN (9/5): - Room was nice and clean and the beds were really comfortable
- Merdangeldi (10/5): - Çok harika 3 geçe geçirdim . Her şey temiz . çalışanları çok nazik hepsini çok teşekkür ederim
- Ángel (5/5): - La ubicación y cercanía al centro de la ciudad. Son necesarios tapones para los oídos debido al ruido de la música del pub que hay ubicado justo debajo de las habitaciones.
- Mark (4/5): Excellent location, lovely staff, good room. if your not out clubbing until 6am/4am you wont sleep - The staff were very nice and helpful the bed was very comfortable and a great room and shower and toilet were good and very clean location was fantastic Sadly although the hotel says can be noisy due to the bar I was assuming a normal bar not a full on nightclub with an extremely late license Friday/Saturday 6am and Sunday 4am with my room No 10 directly above the DJ so the noise in the room is just impossible to sleep even though I have 40% hearing loss and had taken my hearing aids out
- Hassan (9/5): -
- Nicholas (8/5): - Location and 24 hour access Didn't realise the club below went on till 6 am. My fault of course
- Jake (7/5): -
- michael (8/5): Mamchester - Friendly staff, easy access, no trouble checking in. Club down stairs goes on very late but I still slept after a few pints!
- Justine (2/5): Good luck trying to sleep - Good location Music blasting from downstairs bar until 7am impossible to sleep. Then followed by noisy cleaners in from 7. Shower was ice cold. Lock on the room door was difficult to use. Made to pay £20 deposit
- Tristan (9/5): -
- Butler-Trewin (6/5): The hotel is clean, easy get settled in, great value for money and has clearly been recently renovated. You can’t ask fo - It was super central and great value for money! You need to be prepared that this hotel is above and next to some very old, late night bars! (Open till 6am!)
- Eve Ann (9/5): Brilliant! - The staff were so kind! The location was perfect as it was near the train station and walking distance from the main town. The room was very comfortable and clean with also having access to necessities included with the room. The noise from the bar downstairs would be the only issue but overall, would definitely stay again.
- gerard (7/5): -
- Andrew (1/5): - the noise which I knew. deposit system outdated and woefully. nobody to get my deposit back at 8.15 in the morning
- Al Bayati (10/5): -

- Grace (10/5): -
- Sanna (7/5): Hyvä sijainti mutta kallis ja meluisa. - Sijainti. Siisteys. Baarin melu kuului huoneeseen iltapäivästä kello 16 alkaen aina kello 6 aamulla vaikka baarin piti mennä kiinni jo klo 4 aamulla. Sitten meteli jatkui huoneiden edessä käytävällä.
- Caron (8/5): -
- Glen (10/5): - Very close to Piccadilly station. Right in the heart of the city, close to tram stations and plenty of choices for nightlife around this property.
Facilities were excellent, clean and comfortable
Perfect for a short stay in this wonderful city

- Kelly (10/5): Definitely book again - Fantastic stay Close to all the bars . Staff was very helpful
- Guest (6/5): -
- GEORGIE (8/5): Lovely place, friendly and super accommodating staff. - Large, clean room with two large beds. The music going on until 6am was the only blip, otherwise it was great.
- Adam (8/5): Very enjoyable and comfortable stay! Great staff and fab atmosphere - The property was in a great place as there was a group of 12 us (6 in the hotel) celebrating at 40th on Canal Street yesterday. The staff were very friendly and accommodating to us all, nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were clean, tidy and comfortable. Great that the club was downstairs felt like you were in a house party and you can just take yourself to bed. Our room was over the club, so had to wear earplugs due to the music as its on till 5/6am on Saturday and the vibrations from the music were strong but we knew this would be the case and prepared for it so not really a problem. Best place to stay if your going out to get drunk as you’ll most likely sleep through it.
- David (10/5): Great value & clean 🙂 - Very very clean with great lighting in the rooms. So glad I stop here now when visiting Manchester. Prices are competitive too
- Murphy (10/5): Excellent place to stay for a good price and excellent positioning! - The location is perfect for any events you may attend either in the Gay Village itself, or in the vicinity; its positioning is also memorable enough that I didn't have to check my map to find my way home after a night of dancing! I would warn anyone not intending to party downstairs to bring decent earplugs; on a Saturday, the party doesn't end until 6am and the music isn't lacking! However, I always travel with earplugs and so had no trouble sleeping.
- Joseph (5/5): It's very loud. Party there? You're good. If not.. skip it. - Great location The reviews about it being loud are understated. It's very very loud. All night until 5:00 am. If you're up to drinking all night and crashing at 5:00 am this place is perfect. If you're looking for an affordable option for a night or two in Manchester, don't book it.
- Patrick (10/5): A much welcome relaxing stay in a great hotel. - Location, friendly staff, comfortable, easy access rooms I was happy with everything
- Maisy (4/5): Loud - Staff were helpful and room was spotless The door to the rooms from the bar had no security/lock so people from the club below were banging on doors in the night and looking for unlocked rooms talking about drug use. It also isn’t advertised the music plays until 6am. For £200 a night I would’ve expected much more
- Brad (10/5): -
- Gee (10/5): Great location, great staff will be back - Very clean and the staff were brilliant the manager on shift was very pleasant No negative
- William (10/5): Made my night - Lovely Staff, great venue and lovely area, will be back Non
- Chelsea (8/5): Fantastic overnight stay, great location and friendly staff - Great location, very secure It was loud overnight with the bar below but we had been drinking so weren’t too bothered about the noise
- Raymon (10/5): - It was a very nice room all clean and the staff are so good as well🙏 very minor regarding the door at the toilet not getting closed or locked but it was fine since i was alone
- Wood (10/5): -
- Dylan (8/5): -
- Walker (8/5): Brilliant place to stay - I liked the venue because of where it was Not much really
- Emerson (6/5): Nice staff, clean room, but the old building meant thin walls and outdated plumbing. - Staff was really friendly and helpful, very kind. I felt welcome and at ease. Sheets were clean, beds made well. Tea and coffee in the rooms, clean towels. All the basic amenities you'd expect, plus good customer service. The walls are very thin. I could hear every word said in the room next door as if they were in the room with me. Music from downstairs permeated into the room also until about 6am. People next door were talking on the phone at 7am and didn't stop until check out. Also, the shower in my room apparently caused a leak downstairs, so I had a member of staff (very kindly) knock and ask to check the shower after I came out.
- Daniel (10/5): - Great location, didn’t realise that when booking. Me and mrs loved it
- Graeme (8/5): Great place to stay if you can cope with a bit of noise - Lovely staff who are always happy to help, great sized bathroom and comfortable room It’s a bit noisy with the club downstairs but not as noisy as some hotels on canal street
- Selvendran (10/5): -
- Veronica (7/5): - La musica che veniva suonata al piano di sotto era troppo alta, non si riusciva a dormire. Suggerirei anche di inserire una stufetta, il riscaldamento (soprattutto se persone freddolose) attualmente disponibile potrebbe non essere sufficiente per tutti
- Shaun (10/5): -
- Samuel (10/5): Easy checkin - 10/10 location N/A
- Anita (10/5): -
- Dean (3/5): -
- Natalia (7/5): - Friendly staff, very clean room, well located. This is an historical place, one of the firsts openly gay bars in Manchester!! If you like to party, this is the perfect place for you. We slept there on a Friday and a Saturday, exactly the two days that the party at the hotel lasts until 6am... It was impossible to sleep :(
This place is only appropiated if you party hard and go to sleep in the morning. Otherwise you'll find It noisy although wearing earplugs (supplied for the hotel management, who knows the situation). I feel sad because of that, otherwise our stay would had been perfect.
- Colm (8/5): -
- Ian (8/5): - Very convenient location for the village and city centre.
Clean Only 2 tea bags.
Some finishing touches need and thought in to plug location and amount of plugs due to the amount of devices people now carry.
- Burgess (8/5): -
- Thomas (8/5): -
- Brandon (10/5): - amazing place to stay in Manchester
- Mikey (10/5): -
- Raul-Andrei (10/5): - My family and I stayed overnight and absolutely loved our experience. The location is extremely central, and although we were initially worried about noise due to a few nearby clubs (especially as we are light sleepers), we had no issues at all since it was a Wednesday night.
We had a very late check-in, which was kindly accommodated by the host, and the directions provided were excellent. The room was lovely, very clean, and had a nice view of the canal.
- Jose Maria (1/5): -
- Viet (1/5): NIGHTMARE - Super noisy. Party from 10-6am. Nightmare - cannot sleep. And they expect you to accept that terrible noises. SCAM - AVOID AT ALL COST.
- Lisa (4/5): Disappointing - Staff were friendly
Room was clean The room was freezing although the radiator was on 5 it was stone cold to touch and the room was freezing all night
The bed sloped into the middle wasn’t comfortable at all unfortunately
- Kateřina Šlejharová (5/5): - Dobrá dostupnost centra Manchesteru Je to v centru všech rušných diskoték, opravdu velký hluk do ranních hodin. V ubytování je všechno slyšet, každý krok. Určitě špunty do uší sebou! A cenově to taky není žádná hitparáda.
- Marco (8/5): - Location , clean , friendly Slightly noisy for being Monday night
- Kamila (8/5): - Great location, size of the bedroom and bathroom, lovely staff, comfortable bed. I was expecting it to be loud, being on top of the pub, but not wall shaking bass loud. You could feel the floor shaking at 4am.
- Harrison (10/5): -
- Zoe (7/5): -
- Wayne (9/5): Comfortable, clean and great location with helpful staf - Location was ideal for my trip Nothing to put here
