Choosing
the right hotel in Manchester
|
Average
price of a budget hotel is £57 |
The
average normal price for a budget hotel in Manchester
(Campanile,
Days
Inn, Ibis
Manchester, Ibis
Portland Street, Premier
Travel Inn, Travelodge,
Stay
Inn) is £57 during the week,
room only and usually without parking. Weekends, match
days or concert nights are usually more expensive. We
offer most hotels cheaper than their normal advertised
rate |
You
should bear in mind that the average price of 2 people
in a dormitory in a youth hostel in Manchester
(YHA,
Hatters,
Hilton
Chambers) would even cost you £36
on most nights (£42 on match
days and concert nights). [See
all budget hotels in Manchester] |
|
Average
price of a 5 star hotel is £263 |
The
average normal price for a standard room in a 5 star
hotel in Manchester (Radisson
Edwardian, The
Lowry, Great
John Street Hotel) is £263 during
the week, room only and without parking. Weekends, match days
or concert nights are usually more expensive. On many nights,
we offer these hotels for almost half their normal advertised
rate. [See
all luxury hotels in Manchester] |
Booking
online is nearly always cheaper |
Nearly
all our hotels are sold via agents who either
negotiate massive discounts for selling in
bulk or buy the rooms in advance. The booking pages usually
highlight the saving from the hotel's own advertised rate,
in some cases over half the price. Where we link to a hotel
directly, they normally offer special discounted Internet
rates. Don't believe us? Try calling the hotel |
There's
a limited number of Manchester hotels with car parking |
There's
only a handful of hotels offering on site car parking
in the city centre. The Campanile
and Stay
Inn on the edge of the city centre offer free parking,
whilst there is a charge to park at the Marriott
Renaissance, Jarvis
Piccadilly,
Place Apartment Hotel, Marriott
Victoria & Albert, Castlefield
Hotel and The
Lowry. The Midland
Hotel also have their own car park at the G-Mex next door,
whilst many of the self-catering serviced apartments offer
secure parking |
There's
only a few Manchester hotels with a swimming pool |
The
only hotels with a swimming pool are the
5 star Radisson
Edwardian, 4 star Hilton
Deansgate and Midland
Hotel, 3 star Castlefield
Hotel and Britannia
Sachas. The 4 star Thistle
Hotel offers a small plunge pool and surprisingly, the
5 star
Lowry Hotel has no pool |
There's
quite a few Manchester hotels with family rooms |
There
are many hotels with family rooms are the
Arora,
Novotel,
Jurys
Inn, Renaissance,
Marriott
Victoria & Albert, Britannia,
Sachas,
Travelodge
and Place
Apartment Hotel (all allowing upto 4 people in one room)
and the Midland,
Palace,
Mitre,
Stay
Inn (all max 3 people). Many of the self-catering serviced
apartments offer more luxurious accomodation for families. |
Don't be
influenced by how many stars a hotel has |
Many
people ask us for for at least a 4 star hotel in Manchester.
The star system is misleading however as, unlike many countries,
hotels in the UK do not have to be assessed on standards.
They are awarded stars for different aspects (ie, they offer
a restaurant, conference facilities, multi-lingual staff,
or 24 hour concierge, etc). Some hotels are self-accredited
too and we find that certain 2 star hotels in Manchester are
far superior to hotels boasting 4 stars. Instead, you're probably
better checking out our guide to the best
hotels in Manchester.

We can sometimes
find available rooms in fully booked hotels |
As
we're an independent website, we link to most online agents
as well as the hotels directly. As a result we can
often find available rooms for you at a hotel which
may be advertised as fully booked elsewhere. If you're struggling
to find a room in the hotel you want, let
us know and we'll see if we can help.
