This hotel is always a delight to stay in. It’s perfect for the Manchester Marathon and other city even highlights as it’s only a short metro ride from the town centre.
The room was clean, tidy and had everything we needed for our stay including a fridge and tea and coffee.
Breakfast is served buffet style and always has a great and varied choice
