Central Manchester location with reasonably priced parking under the hotel is unbeatable for the price.

The room was facing the city centre and overlooked the river, nice.

The room was showing its age a tad and needed a bit of a spring clean (windows and cill with some dead and live (now dead😁) small flies on it (right next to a river I’d expect that).

Rest was clean with a chair and plenty of storage for the weekend and indeed for a weeklong stay.

We paid for an all u can eat breakfast which had enough choice with a number of vegetarian options too (including sausages) although we’re not veggies. Michael was really helpful, explaining it all and greeting us as soon as we arrived. He also made time to say goodbye too, a really nice touch.

This hotel is our number 1 Choice if we need to stay in central Manchester (easy access to the Arena, Xmas markets, city centre shops and offices. A bit of a walk (15 mins) provides access to Bridgewater hall, opera house etc.

We chose 24hrs parking under a covered area of the car park, perfect.

All in all a great place to stay which would easily earn 5 stars with a bit of a room refurb and more thoroughly cleaned bedroom 👍 Still 5 stars for overall value though.

Jane, the breakfast manager, literally went the extra 1/4 mile to get some gluten free bread from a local supermarket for me. She obviously takes great pride and pleasure in her work and it shows in the attention to detail in this particular Travelodge breakfast room. Halina her assistant was very kind and helpful. I am impressed by Travelodge's provision of gluten free alternatives like Schär cornflakes which are better than many non-gluten-free brands.

I was in Manchester to celebrate graduating from university, so I chose this hotel as it was within walking distance of the venue. I initially drove past the turn into the car park as I didn't see it, and ended up parking in the multi-storey next door until the very friendly hotel receptionist helped me to find the hotel's car park. Hotel guests can park for £10 for 24 hours, so it's definitely much more affordable than the multi-storey! Saved me a fair bit there.

Check-in was very straightforward. You have to validate your parking on a tablet at the desk, which only takes a few clicks and is easy to do. Then I went to my room on the second floor, and found a comfortable double bed made up neatly with clean linens, and some fresh towels at the foot of the bed. The view out of the window was of the car park, but I wasn't there to enjoy a picturesque skyline, so that's okay. Curtains got drawn anyway since I was getting changed.

The room has a desk with a TV, and a kettle, cups, spoons, tea, coffee, sugar, sweetener and milk are all provided. I made myself a coffee - they provided decaf which is great as I can't have caffeine, however couldn't see any decaf tea (I should have just gone downstairs and asked, that's on me) - and started to get ready to go out, making use of the bathroom to wash my face and put my makeup on.

Generally the bathroom was clean, but I did notice some mildew around the body wash dispenser on the wall by the bath. I let the staff downstairs know about this on check-out. Otherwise I was happy with the bathroom's cleanliness, and after I returned from the graduation venue I enjoyed a late-night bath. Water runs nice and hot, no complaints whatsoever about that - just as I like. I didn't sleep well, but that's because I was on my phone till 3am. The bed itself is very comfortable and I would have had no trouble sleeping if it wasn't for the fact that I'm a chronically online millennial addicted to Pokemon videos.

In the morning I went downstairs for breakfast, which I had booked alongside my room, and was met by staff member Mike who attended to the needs of all the guests. He was very courteous and thorough, often checking in with guests to make sure they were happy and if they needed anything. I had a hot breakfast of bacon, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes and beans, which was all delicious. I managed to fit in a yoghurt and half a bagel as well as a coffee. Coffee syrup was provided, so I might have put a fair bit of caramel into my latte - gorgeous.

Overall my stay here was pleasant and met my needs. All I would like to see in future is a touch more attention to cleanliness. Thank you for accommodating me!

OK, but a few things let it down, staff really nice and breakfast tasty. I normally go to a Premier Inn and felt that a few things lacked in comparison. For instance, no glasses in the room just mugs, wanted a clean glass for water and had to get one from the bar, bathroom very dated, the soap dispensers were dirty and the soap was cheap foam rather than actual liquid. No fried eggs at breakfast and ketchup in little sachets rather than a bottle (a lot of plastic waste), bed squeaky and duvet thin. Good central location though and staff doing good job, especially Mike at breakfast who really takes pride in his work.

Firstly although this is not a criticism of y he hotel, it’s worth noting that if you are travelling by car, because of the one way traffic system in Manchester and the fact satnavs have trouble in this area, you may as I did have problems locating this hotel as you maybe diverted the wrong way. This js important as I spent a long time trying to find the right to the hotel.

I had to call the hotel for help in directions but beware the hotel chain phone line will charge a high premium rate on your mobile network.

The hotel car park has very limited spaces, so first come first served and if you pay for parking and then leave and come back, you may find your space is no longer available and you will have to pay for parking again at one of the Neighbouring car parks if you can’t get in.

My room was clean, tidy and large, very well laid out, and bathroom and shower areas were nicely done and hygienically cleaned, with fresh towels laid out on the beds,

However, the whole room smelled of unclean human and needed a lot more airing and freshening up, so windows were opened to assist with this process.

On the plus side, the room had plenty of usb ports which was extremely useful to me and anyone travelling who has multiple devices, and plug sockets were also in abundance.

The hand gel irritated my skin, so be ware if you have sensitive skin and bring some hand cream , and ie additional soaps to counteract this issue.

The hotel charge for wifi service after a free 30mins trial period which other hotel chains and AirBnB’s don’t charge for this service. Fortunately for me I could use my own data and the signal was good.

The hotel staff on my visit were very helpful and courteous and the after hours meal deal was reasonably priced, although the choices at breakfast were slightly limited it was ok.

On the time of my visit, I was able to work in my room in peace and quiet, which was important to me.

Overall for the standard of the hotel and the points of criticism I’ve highlighted, I think 4/5 stars is adequate and the review for any visitors to it is a fair one to assess.

Only paid £25 to stop here and nothing disappointed.
Great location near the shops close to everything we wanted to see like the Armadale
Everything in the room was good the bed was comfy the tv was good. Having a bath in the room was unexpected but a pleasant surprise.
Breakfast is good value for money at £10 each with lots of selection. Mike was very good showed us where everything was and was very attentive with plates and such. All in all very good place to stay would recommend :)

I know you could say what do you expect from a Travelodge, but how about a wardrobe or a drawer to put things in? How about a shower curtain that fits the bath or a plug hole that drains while you’re showering? Or enough room to shower without the shower curtain sticking to you.

For such a basic low budget room, I cannot believe I allowed them to charge me over £160 for two nights without breakfast. I will never use them again, anywhere.

We were visiting Manchester for a wedding. Leaving our baby with grandma we wanted someone we could check in early and head straight to wedding. The fact you can pay in advance for a confirmed early check in with Travelodge made it perfect for us.
We parked at the Travelodge, it is first come first serve. There were 2 x spaces when we arrived and it was good price.
** The carpark is small and cramped. Very tricky to get in and out of spaces between the pillars so be careful
On arrival Mandy and Tom greeted us at reception giving us a quick bit of info and the cards for our rooms. Nice to have real people welcome you. I had brought an iron and they gave me an ironing board that I could take to the room.
* The ironing board however does need a new cover. Had to put a towel over the top and cover as so thin I was ironing straight in metal.
Room was a good size and clean
* Bathroom tiles need some bleaching to kill small spots of black mould that builds up from lack of ventilation
We had paid for breakfast in advance. A young lady and a man Mike were there to greet and help us. Food was very nice, I had some of fry up, granola and fruit and a croissant and orange juice
Mandy and Tom were on reception when we handed in our keys, again very cheerful and happy.
If you want somewhere central, convenient, clean with nice staff Travelodge is perfectfor the odd night

The rooms are as expected for a budget hotel, clean, tidy and surprisingly spacious with a great location for anyone wanting to be close to the heart of the city centre.

The staff were friendly and helpful.

There is parking available underneath the hotel which is limited but we had no issue getting a space and was a bargain at £10 for 24 hours.

We included breakfast which was your standard full english and continental with friendly staff to assist. We had the pleasure of meeting Mike who although was on his own during the rush hour breakfast run was lovely, helpful and still get the tables cleaned and croissants toasted :)

There is also a bar for any late night or pre going out refreshments. And there is vending machines in the entrance with juice and sweets for anyone who needs a sugar rush.

Overall great experience and will definetly be back.

I’d say your closest station is Manchester Victoria Station. (10 min walk approximately). If you’re after a sit down meal you could try the Hard Rock Cafe, which is always a great atmosphere with decent no nonsense food (I’d recommend booking on line though especially if any concerts are on at AO arena).

HI i am so sorry but Travelodge do not accept anyone under the age of 18 to make a booking, there has to be at least 1 person in the room that is 18 or over or you will not be allowed to stay. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We use the travelodge every time we stay in Manchester and we stay quite often. It's good value and close to all the main stores and restaurants. It's a less than 10 minute walk to the football museum, don't know about the Coronation Street tour think that's a fair distance as is the Trafford Centre so you would need transport or as others say use the trams. If you're driving there is a car park underneath the hotel with limited spaces for £10 pee night. Hope this helps 👍
