Hotel in zona East Didsbury, Manchester

L'hotel ha fatto il lavoro, ma sembrava molto inclinato, e le camere erano poco in loro. Il servizio era amichevole, e aveva buone attrazioni intorno.

I’ve become quite a regular at this hotel, I’ve mentioned before that the staff are very helpful & accommodating, The rooms are large & spacious, you get tea & coffee making facilities, There’s Fridge & microwave which is great for me as I’m in the area working, All in all well presented & affordable hotel I would recommend it to anyone staying in the area on business.

Come to stay for 1 night as was visiting friends for a Birthday party l. What a really nice hotel would definitely stay here again. My room was big amd plenty of space thank you 😊

L'hotel era pulito, la stanza era molto piccola, ma calda e aveva strutture per la manutenzione e servizi per il tè/caffee. L'hotel era vecchio ma ben tenuto.Il personale era amichevole. La sala 28 non aveva assolutamente alcuna pressione, ha fatto rapporto, ma nessuno è venuto a farlo. La stanza non era pulita, ma poi si è visto un avviso che le stanze erano pulite solo su richiesta. Beh, è questo il punto. Oh, si', bellissimo posto di fuoco davanti alla ricezione e l'autobus si fermano fuori.

L'hotel è convenientemente situato vicino all'aeroporto di Manchester, ma se si verifica tardi, viaggiando con un paio di valigie, si può desiderare di leggere. Abbiamo chiesto all'hotel dall'aeroporto di Bruxelles di avere un senso di base di dove aspettare la navetta dell'hotel per il pick-up; ci hanno detto il personale/operatore della ricezione, che si deve prenotare online e l'ultima pick-up è alle 10:00. Abbiamo chiesto se potesse prenotare, perché io ero già al telefono con lei, ma lei ha spiegato che era una festa di outsourcing e dovevamo farlo. Il nostro volo aveva un arrivo programmato alle 09:30, quindi ha deciso di prenotare la navetta. Non è stato facile trovare un link sul loro sito web. Li ho chiamati di nuovo per chiedere dove posso fare la prenotazione online e sono stati detto che uno deve solo tagliare la strada e l'hotel era proprio lì. Fortunatamente abbiamo avuto un piccolo portafoglio con le ruote ciascuno e non pioveva in quel momento, anche se le strade erano bagnate da una recente doccia piovana. Hotel funzionale. Pulizia/bella. Se arrivate tardi, con gli anziani o con un paio di valigie grandi, ricordatelo. Chiamatevi anche per capire le ore di funzionamento per il servizio di navetta. È Inghilterra, quindi avere un ombrello conveniente è sempre utile. (a partire dalla metà marzo 2023).

We would like to thank the staff at this hotel for making our stay before flying out at Manchester Airport a relaxing and stress free visit Room was lovely with everything we needed. And a special thanks to Toni in the bar area for her fantastic friendly service she does a fantastic job Recommend staying here before you fly out or just a relaxing experience Well done to all the team Mark and Deanna

I've stayed here before when it was a lot better. Nowadays the outside of the building is in desperate need of decorating, with paint flaking off the walls. First thing that went wrong was the booking from Trip.com somehow became lost in the system despite us have received an acknowledgement number from the hotel. Next, the sink did not hold water because the rubber seal in the plug was worn out. The bathroom has no windows and the fan did not work so smells linger. On the second day the hot water tap in the sink stopped flowing - no water, neither hot nor cold. They readily fixed that for us when we complained, but we decided not to risk showering for our stay in case the water failed again. The TV remote did not turn the TV on - I found that there was a switch on the TV we could use to turn it on and off, so we used that instead and the remote fortunately worked for everything else needed on the TV. On the last morning my wife wanted to use the hairdryer and found it did not work - upon checking, I found that the wire had been pulled right out of the switch. We never found the bar. Lastly - the breakfasts. The Friday and Saturday meals were very good, but the Sunday breakfast was served by a different staff member who was quite parsimonious. My wife and I both ordered the full English breakfast, but what we got on the Sunday was one breakfast shared between two plates. Two rashers of bacon were simply cut in two, with my wife getting the meaty end of the two rashers and I getting the fatty end. There was one egg each - not two - and the scrambled eggs we ordered were merely stirred to break the yolk rather than properly scrambled. The portion of beans was minimal, not even a child's portion. We saw another diner having the same treatment and he was not pleased either. The room was a bit too warm for us but we could not find any way of adjusting the temperature. On the plus side, the bed was nice and firm. Reception staff were not always easy to get hold of or we would have passed all our complaints on to them as we came across them, but we had lots to do and did not want to waste our time. It's a shame, because it is the best hotel for us location-wise, but we won't be going back.

Had to book an overnight stay near to the o2 Apollo due to crap parking at the location and another annoying stupid set of train strikes. Looked at a few budget hotels nearby and decided to go with the Holiday Inn Express as they had on-site parking, breakfast and other amenities very close by (i.e. MacDonalds etc). IT wasn't the cheapest option, not by a long chalk, but reviews were good and it certainly looked the best of the bunch that were available on that date. So, the hotel itself is conveniently located just off a busy main road directly into Manchester and close to motorways, It's in a pleasant park area and has lots of greenery to hide other buildings, roads etc, so that was nice. Checked in easy enough, you pay £5 per night for parking on arrival which was stated in the booking so no surprise, our ground floor room was very nice, simple and clean. Usual TV, hairdryer, kettle and hot drinks sachets. There was also a fan, which was handy as it was a very warm room despite the heating (wall heater) not being on. We were located at the back of the hotel which was very quiet - not the best view in the world but plenty greenery so not too bad (we didn't go there for the view!). The bathroom was small but functional and most importantly, clean! The shower was strong and hot with body soap and shampoo provided. The beds (we had a twin) were soft and comfortable - two pillows (just right for me) and blackout curtains made for a very pleasant nights' sleep. Breakfast, served 7.30am - 10am) was again, simple yet enough for anyone. Cereals, danishes, bread, jams, fruit etc and bacon, sausage, scrambled egg and beans for a hot breakfast with plenty drinks on offer, coffee, juices etc. Had better scramble eggs tbh but otherwise a very good effort for a budget hotel. So, in summary, this hotel does exactly what it says on the tin - it provides a convenient stop-over at a 'reasonable' price with good clean, comfortable accommodation to suit anyone really. P.S. The staff were very nice and helpful - if you need a taxi, 'In-time' were good and prompt but if later at night you may have more luck with an Uber. I would stay here again should the circumstances arise and can recommend to anyone requiring a hotel in this location.

The location is good, but not user friendly for luggage, i need to take 2 of my luggages (30kg) alone upstarts to the lift to my room. That’s killing me, I dun expect that hard for me, it’s not worth to pay that price. I found we have other better choice among that area.

What you could expect from Doubletree, reception is lovely and helpful in helping us to keep our luggage. Gym is fit for purpose and equipment is new. Room is refurbished recently and looks new. Overall a very good staying experience.
