This hotel was conveniently located near to the Salford quays metro stop. It was roughly a 17 minute walk to the Lowry. The breakfast was great & the staff were very friendly. Would happily stay again

Check in was fine, staff were friendly, but the overnight parking was very expensive. Room service had a very limited menu and some bar staff contradicted themselves about availability of room service.

The hotel and rooms were clean. Staff were polite. Breakfast didn’t have veggie substitutes like veggie sausages, but there were a lot of other options (Pastries, fruit, eggs, beans etc). Parking was very expensive @£14 per day. Disabled parking is limited. Dinner was ok… but you could tell it was a microwave job. Would stay here again, but go out for dinner and park locally instead of using the hotel car park.

Good but...

Bed was terrible, so soft it was like a water bed and hurt my back. The minibar was so loud it woke me up multiple times. It was however pretty clean and tidy. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The appearance was good. The bed and fridge ruined it for me though.

The only challenge we had was parking. The hotel carpark was full so we were direct to a nearby carpark belonging to a pub opposite. Although the owner of the pub let us park there they made it clear they weren't happy with the hotel letting people park there, so it was a little confusing.
