Travel bookings in Manchester

“I needed a place to stay for one night, close to the airport, and this Holiday Inn proved to be a great choice. Not only it's close to the airport/train station (so you don't really need a taxi if you are travelling light) but it's also new, beautifully designed, clean and with lots of different tasty choices for breakfast. I've also had dinner at the restaurant and the only thing I would say is that maybe the price was a bit high compared to the portion of the food. Something that I really liked - the eco part - is that the key cards are wooden instead of plastic and the toiletries (shampoo etc.) were in refillable containers.”

“We loved native. It's architecturally really interesting - really great use of this space. The room was beautiful and a lovely place to come back to. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. A couple of things that would have made it even better would have been some drawers to put clothes in and a full length mirror. All in all though we had a really great time and will definitely be back.”

“Fantastic location!!! If you're going to see a game at Old Trafford this spot couldn't be better. The hotel feels newer and clean, check in was a breeze, and breakfast for a Hilton Garden Inn was quite good. Will definitely stay again.”

“I came from London to watch a football game, the Hotel is right next to the Tram station, St Peters Square which was amazing and made everything easy, also is was like an 8min walk to the Shopping Centre and all other shops which made it easy. The Hotel staff were nice, the lounge was chilled and comfortable, the room was modern, clean, a bit on the small side but doesn't really matter since I'm not living there, the bed was so so comfortable and a clean and powerful shower. I've been to Manchester a few times now and this was the first time I stayed in this hotel and I will definitely be making it the hotel I stay at from now on.”

“Great location, right next to arndale and printworks. Really clean, all staff were pleasant. Very secure, have to use fob for building floor and room entry. When we found a tin next to the beds with ear plugs in we thought we may get noise from the stree and bars across but honestly heard nothing at all, we were on second floor. There were a few car parks near by but it is walking distance from Victoria station. Doors are heavy and closers on them make them slam quite loud. Needs more milk for drinks, next time we will take our own. Very warm in apartment but all radiators have individual thermostat controls, it was nice to people watch the people leaving printworks in December seb zero temperature while in a cosy apartment.”

“After staying here with my husband in the summer we returned last weekend to celebrate our anniversary. This hotel is really great, central location so easy walking distance to bars/restaurants/shops and just round the corner from Chinatown and the Gay Village. Both times the rooms have been lovely, we went for a bigger room the second time we visted as the standard rooms are a bit small (but very comfortable). The staff are always really friendly and helpful and the hotel even set the room up with a special complimentary anniversary treat for us. Breakfast and the bar are both nice too. Price is reasonable for a nice, central hotel and having stayed at a lot of different hotels in Manchester I'd recommend it as a fun place to stay. We will definitely be choosing to stay here again next time we're in the city!”

“Really loved staying here. The room itself was very nice, stylish, functional and comfortable. The bathroom was fantastic, the kitchenette has everything you need to prepare your own meals (not that I cooked), and the wifi was very reliable. I was booked here by work to stay here for 3 nights and I was able to easily book an extra night myself and the hotel staff were able to easily arrange for me to stay in the same room and not have to check out and in again. I will likely stay here next time I'm in Manchester. The only negative thing I would say is that the lifts are slow or there are not enough of them, because I always had to wait and there always seemed to be people waiting to use them.”

“Had great service from Debbie at the Ashton u Lyne branch in the precinct. Nothing was too much trouble and she sorted out holiday money out a treat.”

“Absolutely brilliant customer service here. Went out of their way to get me the right flights. Very responsive to all queries even out of hours.”

“Just come back from Tanzania. Week long safari followed by a week in Zanzibar. From the minute we first met Peter Beswick at the Manchester store and booked our holiday right through to the end of our holiday everything has been perfect. The booking process, management of the booking and updated information throughout was well managed. As for the holiday, it was amazing. Everything ran to the itinerary and all of the service providers locally in Tanzania were professional and well appointed. Thank you Peter and thank you Trailfinders for a great experience and a fab holiday.”

“Fantastic travel agent, would not go any where else! Have booked with other places but not a patch on the service here, great staff manager and owner always helpful but this time with all the stress of holidays I’ve been email and going in, very helpful. today have been in and Andy has spend a long time going through all the things you need to and even sorted out all my vaccines with chemist and coming back into the country test, they could not do more to help they have gone above and beond there duty, outstanding service”

“Very Professional Staff in a nice relaxed atmosphere. Have arranged several holidays over the years for my Group of walking Friends all of which have been very enjoyable.”

“Great travel agency, staff really friendly and couldn't do enough for us.”

“Did our COVID test here. The results come quick and as committed. Also the staff is multilingual which is helpful to many people. They give you time when booking tickets to try and find cheapest options possible.”

“Friendly helpful, ask for Sara, she will sort you a good holiday out , staff are all excellent at what they do”

“Staff were very helpful and really friendly. They found my partner and I a perfect holiday. Would definitely recommend to people to go here.”

“Recommended to Hays and particularly this branch in Horwich by my brother in law, who lives locally.. Met by smiles all round and immediately sat in with "Clare." She was delightfully personable, extremely knowledgeable, very efficient and ultimately made us feel very reassured that our holiday was well taken care of. It was such a breath of fresh air to arrange our holiday with a "person" rather than impersonally, "online." Though we are around ten miles from home, we would be more than happy to come over to Hays Travel in Horwich, in the future. Many thanks, Clare X”

“My husband and myself have just returned from a 5 day break to Colchester. An excellent holiday from beginning to end. Luxury coach travel with informative and carefully planned excursions. The Holiday Inn hotel was of a very high standard. Staff were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Scott our driver was first class, professional and made the care and well being of his passengers his top priority. This was a lovely relaxing holiday and despite being out on trips every day there was no rush or early timed schedules, everything was done in a nice carefree way. I would definitely recommend Ava Travel coach holidays to my family and friends. We are looking forward to our next holiday with your company. Thank you Ava Travel for a lovely holiday.”

“Online booking simple and immediate follow up for more info. Clear booking info sent to me straight away. Qosain was excellent; punctual, safe and good company. All round excellent experience from airport to North Yorkshire.”

“I have stayed in numerous hotels in Manchester however this is has got to be the best one I have stayed at so far! I recently stayed here for my friends birthday, the Guest Relations Manager was super accommodating and helped me setup my room for my friends birthday. She even kindly left a birthday card and small cake for my friend, thank you Viktorija. Exceptional 5 star service from all staff right from checking in right up until checking out and leaving the hotel. This was definitely a 5 star experience for myself and the welcome received from all staff was amazing. We had a small issue where our heating in the room was not working however the hotel accommodated promptly with a portable heater. Spa was also so beautiful and the overall look of the hotel is so aesthetically pleasing! 100% recommend this hotel, I don’t think I will book anywhere else now, it’s going to be my go to 5 star hotel. Can’t wait to be back! Thank you to all staff at The Edwardian this hotel is beautiful!!!!”

“I booked the Maldron for my cousins 50th birthday and was impressed from start to finish. I checked in on line the day before, so everything was ready for us when we arrived. The reception staff were lovely, very friendly and courteous and very helpful throughout our stay. Our room was ready when we arrived and were very pleased with our allocated room and although we could see train line from our window we never heard any trains. My sister in law wanted some extra coffee and a couple of extra hangers and we had only just put the phone down to reception and someone was knocking on our door with requested items.. First class customer service. We had booked breakfast for our stay and we were both very impressed with the quality and selection available. The staff in the restaurant were also very pleasant and helpful and took the time check everything was as we liked. I would recommend the breakfast to anyone. We chose the hotel for its location to the train station and restaurants and bars we were frequenting over the weekend. Had a fabulous time and was very impressed with the hotel and its staff.”

“Cannot fault this place. Room was perfect, spotless and had everything we needed - including an iron, hairdryer plus extras like bath robes. Breakfast each morning was lovely, lots of choice and fresh made. We had room on the 16th floor so night time was just beautiful. Nothing was a problem for staff who were chatty and friendly even when it was super busy. Would most definitely stay here again.”

“Priced up a fly drive for me to USA. Great service.”

“I took the Liverpool day trip from Manchester, it was great day out, everything worked very well, I will be booking another trip very soon ! thank you”

“Just wanted to say a big thank you to Lauren and her supervisor today, I went to the store after trying to resolve flight changes with the call centre, which was terrible! I was upset and frustrated from the call centre agent and when I arrived in store I explained what had happened and it was resolved, with a smile and a glass of fizz. It was not an easy fix for them and they went above and beyond! Thank you so much, we can now look forward to our much awaited holiday!”

“First time visiting and I will be back very soon! The staff are absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable offering recommendations depending on your taste. The portions are really big so well worth the money. Gutted we couldn’t fit a dessert in.”

“Stayed before, will stay again. Food was great and inexpensive. service very good and staff very accommodating.”

“I was greeted almost immediately upon entering, by a lovely gentleman who asked me what I was looking for. He spotted my awe in the vast size of the bottom floor. I was given a very warm welcome and felt like a VIP. Chose the stairs as I was not too high up. Amazing place, quite surreal in that despite its size, there is still a personal hospitality from all of the staff, not impersonal. I was blown away.”

“Just returned from a 2 night break and planning when to go again. First time in a wheelchair staff couldnt do enough to help. All staff shared in with a laugh and were so friendly. Room was large and very clean, bar service first class , bar food good value and breakfast so good all hot and fresh with a great choice. Left very happy. aall food was hot and fresh with”

“Great place to explore the Northern Quarter of Manchester. Staff are very welcoming on arrival. It's a self service check in system but staff are on hand to assist. Place is very clean throughout with bar and restaurant on site with quite decent prices. Rooms are excellent for the price with shops bars and restaurants all within easy walking distance. The tram stop is only a 5/10 minute walk if you want to explore surrounding Manchester. There is no parking but there is a car park directly opposite which you pay about £10 per day .”
