“Excellent relaxed restaurant in the northern quarter. A hidden gem uncovered for me by a friend. Well worth heading to. Will be going again! Service was as good as the food. Pea soup fish & chips & a lemon meringue.”

“Best fried squid we’ve ever had! Food was all incredible & the cocktails tasted as good as they looked. Small error made on an allergen request for our order & the staff were fantastic about rectifying.”

“Very reasonable price and fantastic location. Room was spotless and good amenities. Iron and ironing board provided on request. Free wifi and tv in each room. Also spotless. If I had to fault, the maid walked in in the morning at 8am, she did knock and walk in but I didn’t think I would need to put the “don’t clean” sign on the door as we were only staying one night. But overall a pleasant experience and would definitely stay again!”

“Absolutely amazing cocktail bar. Staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble, I even asked for a cocktail not on the list and they made it. I cannot recommend this bar enough. Plus really good music, and a fantastic live singer on the Sunday night. If you're in the area go to this bar.”

“Absolutely stunning place to grab some amazing breakfast, which is just delicious. From the hip vibes and colourful decor this place is awesome. The staff are so friendly and funny with great banter and the food and drinks wow. Really hits the spot a true gem, cant wait to visit again.”

“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 .”

“The staff could not be more helpful, especially Florin with his recommendation of the sticky toffee pudding. Delicious. Thank you for your warm welcome.”

“Difficult to find from Sat Nav but we got there in the end. It was perfect for us as we were there for The Dream Syndicate at Band On The Wall which was less than five minutes walk. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was busy as some football fans from Germany were there too. Their team got beaten 7-0 off Manchester City so understand subdued.”

“Great early dinner menu with lots of choice for meat eaters and vegetarians. Staff are so friendly and attentive. Food was gorgeous with great portion sizes.”

“Simply the best place in Manchester for a kebab (or mixed grill) and naan. 10/10. The food is delicious. Free soup (with nice spices) and truly unlimited Kurdish tea. The service is exquisite. The restaurant is busy, spacious and they really look after you when it comes to going above and beyond, e.g. birthday celebrations etc. Great facilities. A diamond in the rough. There is another Kurdish restaurant on this street that needs to take lessons from Slemani. The other restaurant took 1 hour+ for service, indeed the service was non-existent. The soup was cold at the other restaurant. The tea didn't arrive. Facilities were dated. The whole experience was sub-optimal.”

“Came in for my birthday and the service was amazing! Liam was a fantastic host and made us feel very welcome and had a good laugh. We had the vegan afternoon tea and it was beautiful. Once again thank you Liam you made it a fantastic experience!”

“Best Chinese i had so far. Good variety and really loved the idea of combining different dishes. Good vegetarian options”

“Food and mocktails were amazing. Great menu and good portion sizes. I would go back and try different items on the menu. I had the chicken Mexican sizzler and my friend had the cream chicken with mash potatoes, green beans and creamy sauce”

“I thoroughly enjoyed my three night stay at this wonderful hotel. In particular the staff, Alex and team, were amazing, friendly and couldn't do enough to make me feel welcome and comfortable. Bear in mind this is an old building and some of the rooms are in need of a little bit of TLC but the views are fantastic and it's great to be able to stay in an iconic example of 60s modernist architecture. The restaurant and breakfast area particularly stylish. I would definitely recommend - worth requesting a more recently refurbished room if you do so.”

“I hired this bar for my daughters christening from the venue to the staff everything was amazing I would definitely recommend this bar!”

“I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the hotel after reading previous reviews however it seems the owner's of this hotel have gone to a real effort to turn things around, everything was laid out perfectly for us the bed was made nicely and the bath run really nice with hot water, and with folded towels on the bed and free soap show minor details which would be expected on rooms much more expensive. Highly recommend for families my kids loved it. Also great location.”

“Best night ever! I came with my girls for a hen do and we had a lovely night. DJ was lit and staff was very friendly and helpful. When they found out it was my friends hen do they gave us some free shots. Highly recommend this place for a good nighout!!!”
