Malmaison Manchester
Staff were so friendly and helpful, room was very modern and clean had everything we needed. The only thing that let it down was the size of the shower head which was pretty small and needs an upgrade, the location was super central and everything at your doorstep. Check in and check out was so quick ...

I arrived late, reception staff were friendly and check in was quick. Good options for food at that time - restaurant & bar options. Room was comfy, gym was well equipped, and breakfast buffet was well stocked but seemed fresh.
