Our stay at the Crowne Plaza was mostly good, it did the job required and got us close to the airport before an early flight the next morning. Staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The bar and restaurants were really good, we are in the Thai restaurant, nice door and reasonably oriced. The hotel bedrooms and public corridors had been refurbished recently, in truth a quick coat of paint has been applied and not particularly well in places (hotel wardrobes didn't look good at all) there was only one small, lumpy pillow per person which wasn't great when you're there to 'relax' before travelling. Airport shuttle was great, a member of staff recommended we book it, it was on time, and a quick, fuss free way to get to our terminal

Not great but not bad

Plenty of car parking, unlike most other hotels at Manchester Airport. All staff were very friendly and competent. Room was a decent size and bed was really comfy but the shower was woefully weak. Breakfast was OK but was missing some of the usual ingredients you'd expect on a full English. Free shuttle to/from airport was handy too.
