Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Stayed at this hotel as we were visiting my siblings who live in this part of the UK. Was very impressed with the hotel as it has been completely renovated since I last stayed there , is now part of the IHG. Breakfast was also very nice but compared to other Holiday inns we have stayed at on the continent, the choice of cheeses and charcuterie was very poor. All staff were very pleasant especially Rebecca, who offered us free drinks as we had a few issues when we booked in, due to the fact that a large conference was taking place at the hotel and we could not find a parking space

Have just had afternoon tea here with four friends and it was lovely. The food was excellent and the staff were great. I would definitely recommend this for a really nice afternoon out with friends or family. We had a great relaxing afternoon with excellent service and food.

Booked here last minute as had been totally let down by the Village hotel nearby. We received first class service from checking in, having something to eat and finally checking out. The staff here are a credit to the business. We would look here first for sure if in the area for work again.

Was looking at various hotels to stay in close to Manchester, when I can across this excellent Holiday Inn. Luxurious and beautifully appointed rooms smelt freshly refurbished, which was nice. Superb location for visiting Manchester. Lovely welcoming water features outside gives it a very Courtyard atmosphere. Spotlessly clean. Friendly welcoming staff........Can't wait to go back!

I came here with my family for the Boxing Day Christmas event. We were seated next to the window to which we noticed the blinds were very dusty and there was a draft. Starters could have been warmer. The were no condiments unless you asked for them. Poor organisation of the event and very limited bar service. Filtered coffee was cold. There was nothing special about the event and wasn’t very Christmassy.

Staff and rooms great,spotless and plenty of space and good bathroom. Went to Alice in wonderland Christmas event, service great, great entertainment and DJ fab,good fun with the free photo booth.food very dissapointing, both Turkey dinner and vegetarian/vegan risotto poorly cooked and so much waste. Understand the high volume of catering required but no excuse for badly cooked tasteless food wasted.

We arrived and I booked the suite. Had screen shots luckily. Got to room and it was awful. Looked at emails and it had changed!!! They literally changed it! I had a screen shot and the look on there faces was like oh oh we been caught. After 10 mins of typing on computer. I was told the room I booked was already occupied. So had to stay in a dirty room with holes and mould on curtains and dead spiders everywhere. Stained sofa. Just disgusting. I will say we were refunded difference but the room were giving really wasn’t worth. The original room looked so nice so was really disappointed

Mould in the bathroom of a 4 star hotel. Not acceptable. IHG taken over the old Smokies hotel from Best Western group in Oldham. New curtains and utilitarian furniture do not make up for the poor standard and condition of this hotel. Let’s wait and see what dinner brings.

A former Best Western that has had a makeover. Starting at reception all the staff were friendly, welcoming and very helpful. The room has had a complete make over, new bathroom and fittings, the bed room had been newly refurbished and redecorated in very pleasant shade of grey and white. New ceiling light fittings and a brand new large smart TV the room was better than a lot of 5* hotels ... The restaurant appears not to have been touched. It had a dark decor and no heating most customers wearing outer coats to keep warm. The food was as poor I ordered the Korean BBQ wings with Sweet Chilli sauce, personally they did not need the sauce .. The main course Katsu Curry, again not a brilliant choice the chicken was over cooked and dry and I gave up half way through the course. Breakfast was the standard multi choice of cereals, cooked breakfast, fruit and toast with hot and cold drinks. Holiday Inn has done an excellent job on refurbishing the rooms but need to have good look at the restaurant and the menu. I would stay again but would go else were for dinner.
