Great location. Rooms were nice although noisy with the trams until about 11pm. Air conditioning was also noisy and water was tepid at best which was annoying after we’d run the half marathon. Breakfast was included and was decent and the bar area was nice. Staff in arrival were a little disinterested and despite rooms being available, wouldn’t check us in without an additional fee a couple of hours early so we just went out for a walk. Beds very comfy and restaurant staff very welcoming. Tracey was particularly friendly. A good base for exploring the city and 5 mins walk to the train station.

I was in Manchester for a concert at the Co-Op arena. I wanted a hotel close to Piccadilly station and handy for the tram service out to the arena. This Ibis fitted the bill well. I had a goodnight's sleep too.

Mixed review w

Mixed. Hotel operates a system of no phones. When the fire alarm went off for the second time we tried phoning reception using the number provided….no answer. When we queried at reception we were told to use a WhatsApp number to contact reception. Two days later I have received no reply to my concerns about their fire procedures. My query certainly wasn’t treated seriously by the receptionist. I am okay about using WhatsApp but they need to monitor this. As a result I have marked down the scoring for the hotel. We also noted a hole in the ceiling where there had been a leak. While this was clearly being left to dry we did not expect to find a wet carpet between the two beds! On a positive note hotel is in a great central location but my concerns over safety mean that it is unlikely I will return.

We’ve stayed here twice now as it’s been the cheapest option on both occasions but it doesn’t feel like it at all. The staff checked us in really quickly, the rooms are comfy with everything you could need, and even though we didn’t use it, the onsite restaurant looked really good. Would definitely recommend!

The staff were slightly non communicative, when asking questions, it was a no phone system, and WhatsApp needed, but they never responded. The hairdryer and iron didn’t work, hot water also an issue. Not a great stay

Nice hotel with friendly, helpful staff. Unfortunately, when I got back to my room at night I discovered the temperature had been set to 16o, and the window was partially open. I eventually worked out how to turn the thermostat up, but it spewed out more cold air until it heated up. There was nothing the staff could do so there was no point sending a WhatsApp about it at the time, as I just wanted to sleep after a long day. It made for a pretty uncomfortable bedtime, and took the shine off an otherwise nice stay.
