Hotels near The University of Manchester, Manchester

I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff were amazing, and the breakfasts were great. The room amenities were good, and I even got access to the free Wi-Fi in public areas. Although my room was next to the lifts and some noise could be heard at night, the room itself was larger than usual with a huge window. Overall, it was a decent stay, and I was very satisfied with their services. So thank you! 😊

My husband and I came to the hotel on Friday 7/10/2022 room 1216 I honestly couldn't say anything negative about this hotel . The moment we walked in Georgia and neelam on reception greeted us warmly and explained everything. Once we settled in we came back to the bar to enjoy the amazing range of cocktails made by Gabriel :) the bar staff were all amazing from the manager phoebe to Pablo and andree they couldn't do more to make you feel welcome . Our room did have a view of the construction but we expected that as we are in the middle of Manchester and it was not a problem at all . The breakfast was beautiful unfortunately I didn't get the gentleman's name who was clearing the tables but he was so nice lastly I would like to give mo from housekeeping a massive shout out our room was spotless and he even gave me a kit kat 😀 what stands out about this hotel is the staff and I mean all the staff shine they all greet you with smiles and I know how hard that can be for a full shift 😀 can't wait to come back thank you

Booked a room without a window for a cheap 1 night break was upgraded on arrival to a room with a window , twin room , massive room , comfy bed , and had tea and coffee facilities, shower above a bath , right in the middle of the city centre , reception was very friendly , and informed me we're the lift was and check out at 10am they do offer a late check of 12pm for £10 or 1pm for £20, also breakfast if booked on arrival was offered at a reduced price of £9.95 , I booked the room for £34 but the option to include breakfast £42 on trip.com so only really £3.50 each for a breakfast which thought was a good offer decided to not have breakfast here , vending machine for snacks choclates crisps and drinks by the lift 24 hours , tv in the room , security on site would not let you in the building till you shown you booking number and I.d and was a bit over the top he was it doesn't mention in booking if staying here guests can not come over after 10pm and must show I.d for each person at reception not seen that before usually just the hotel booked shows I.d so a bit over the top ,

I spent 21 days at this Hilton whilst awaiting my apartment to be ready. The incredibly hospitable staff made the stay a 4/5. Mo the general manager is a top class human as well as a collaborative, uplifting manager. The hotel ac was constantly disrupted, likely due to the unprecedented level of climate change weather, this year. The front desk staff were ready and willing to help with anything I needed. They are mostly 20 somethings that by nature enjoy genuinely helping people. Taren ”consummate professional”, Pier ” my fav Italian”, Igor ”the hustler”, Abbie ”comforting smile”, Demi ”sweetest person”, Winnie ”wish I could adopt her”, Faz ”the kindest human ever”, Lianna ”gets it done - even without a business center”, Serena ”kind and quick”, Jordan ”kind smile” and Patrick ”the mix master”, I would ike to publically thank each of these people for: providing fans in a pinch, providing business center services with0ut a business center, helping with a hot coffee (my fault) incident, suggestions for delicious BRITISH FOOD (?!@$!?), ideas on how to expedite my Manc assimilation. The maid staff were happy to provide extra towels and coffee creamers... they respected privacy and would leave supplies outside of our door unsolicited when we hung our do not disturb sign out... the list goes on and on. This is a wonderful Hampton that should be a model for all of the rest. I've been to a lot of them! I am forever grateful to the kind people here. They would have received 5 stars if the ac worked and the breakfast was changed up a bit. But @HiltonHotels needs to give everyone here a raise.

The hotel/bar & restaurant (Ibis & Jamboree) are my weekly watering hole! Lovely staff, lovely drinks and a fantastic atmosphere! If you’re staying in Manchester, make sure you get yourself here and ask for Preston, he’ll sort you out!

Booked via Copthorne direct. Decent queue at Check in which is from 2pm, room not ready told to come back at 3. Strangely they wouldn’t take our bags until then? Anyway went out to OT got back at 9:45 tried to get 2 hot drinks from the bar but told machine was off. Room was just ok. Looks like it needs an upgrade. Room was clean enough but the bathroom had several cracked tiles, horrible silicone and an actual chip in the bath that had been ‘painted’. Bed was awful. That mattress had seen some traffic and in desperate need of a changing. Breakfast.. bloody hell where do I start. Waitress at the desk was very pleasant. No cutlery on the table. Several dirty tables waiting to be cleaned away. No plates at the hot food area, then topped up with cold plates once requested. Offer of hot food was poor. Dishes under the lights with very little left. Looked like it had been rattled by a bus tour, this was 8:30. Maids were very pleasant, receptionist upon checking out was also Bert nice. All in all decent staff bang average hotel and amenities. If I had paid £150 for the night then fair enough but it was £300 ..

I just HAD to write a review on my stay here. Well... this was my 3rd hotel in 4 nights of travelling. It was also the cheapest one, and the only one I was kind of dreading! Oh how wrong could I have been! From the moment I entered, the receptionist was so friendly and helpful. Welcoming, kind and professional. I asked if there was any fridge I could use to store some food items I was travelling with and they kindly put these in the staff area for me overnight. Could not do enough to help. The hotel feels more like a modern new hostel than a hotel. The vibe in the communal area felt very much like a classy hostel. It was warm, friendly and welcoming. Free unlimited tea and coffee down there was great. Breakfast was only continental, which I hadn't realised. Lovely pastries, but a shame no hot food was served. Rooms are very small, as I had expected, but functional, Plenty of charging sockets, good hot shower with amenities. As I arrived into the station at terminal 1, and was flying from terminal 1 the next day it is quite a walk with heavy bags. There is no shuttle bus or alternative way to get to terminal 1 from here, only the skylink. This would have been fine, but the moving escalators on the skylink were switched off. When I asked the hotel staff about this, they said they have not been working for months. I don't know why this is, but it would have made moving to/from the hotel a lot easier so it was a shame. Overall a very good and unexpected stay. For the price, I would stay again. Thanks to all the staff for such a pleasant welcome.

Having submitted my allergy list a few weeks before our booking and seeing that there were so many gluten free, vegan options, I was excited to be able to join with my friends in celebrating the baby that’s about to be born. Imagine my disappointment when the waitress only went through my allergies (I know it’s an extensive list) at the table in front of friends, not all of whom I’d have liked to know about said allergies. I was hoping for a simple meal and enjoyment of afternoon tea. This did not happen. I was given gf bread that contained egg powder - that I’m intolerant to. I agreed to it because I already felt awkward. I was also given a plate of fruit. And then offered another round of sandwiches. Quite frankly I was shocked and appalled. I was left feeling very isolated and excluded from my friends who were all enjoying their delightful cakes. It’s not difficult to create sandwiches and cakes and scones to my allergies. I do it often. I even offered to pay extra because I know I’ve got a lot. But honestly having to pay £30 in the middle of a cost of living crisis for sandwiches and fruit and being excluded from my friends was ridiculous. I was very disappointed. The waitress was lovely, and double checked everything. The atmosphere was great, it would have been a perfect afternoon if I’d been catered for. But I wasn’t. And I found it quite unbelievable to be honest. I didn’t say anything during our time at the tea room, because I didn’t want to ruin my friends day. But I will not be returning to The Midland because of this terrible service. Photos of everyone else’s afternoon tea, then mine.

Spent one night here as I was travelling to a match in Old Trafford. The stadium is only 10 minute walk away. I requested a quiet room as I had my young son with me. I must say that they certainly did accommodate me. The room was clean and very small. The bed was very comfortable. One tip, if you want to charge your phone and use it while lying in bed, bring an extra long phone charger cable, as the only socket in the room is under the TV, which is in the corner of the room Its a maybe, that I will stay again. I got it for a great price. Overall, happy with stay. It is the basic of basic hotels! Heard from other that the tram can be loud, but I never heard it. Gregs shop next door in petrol station was handy.
