Top hotels in First Street
INNSiDE by Meliá Manchester
Room spacious and clean , didn’t particularly like the open plan bathroom and shower over the bath. Slept well nice and quiet. Wouldn’t have chosen if I had known pet friendly although didn’t see any dogs.

Manchester Portland By Sunday
Good location and the room is clean, but that’s is all the good points I can say. The walls are paper thin and the room next door woke me at 04:30 in the morning. The breakfast was also one.of the worst I’ve ever eaten
