The 30 Best Modern accommodation in Manchester

“Very warm welcome by a tall young man on reception and when checking out. AJ on the bar gave excellent service and chat a lovely lad. Food was really good and breakfast was great. Room was good a little to warm though and we couldn't turn it down or open a window. Enjoyed our stay very much.”

“Perfect over night stay before our early morning flight to Disney. We was checked in by Cibril (sorry if spelt wrong) who kindly gave us 2 drink vouchers for the bar. Another staff member asked if our little boy would like a biscuit and brought him out a shortbread. The rooms where lovely and spacious as well. Of course you could hear the planes but that didn't bother us, apart from that we thought it was a quiet hotel. The walk to the airport is between 5-10mins. Will definitely stay again.”

“Had a really pleasant stay as always. Was greeted with a smile by Aileen who went above and beyond to make my check in and stay as smooth as possible. Thanks Aileen for all your help. See you next time.”

“There are hotels, and there are hotels, right? Equally, there are hotel staff, and there are hotel staff, with me so far? Well, the hotel does what it should, it’s clean, comfortable, well equipped and superbly located (if central Manchester is where you want to be?), so far so good! Now the staff, what a treat to be served so well by everyone, from the courteous cleaners that smiled and represented the company well, to the bar / reception staff that went above and beyond, really well done. In particular, the wonderful Nicole, service with the most wonderful smile and utterly professional, Accor, are you reading this ? She’s management material in the waiting right under your noses!! Dominic too was professional, smiling and uber efficient, the pair of them working together like a Swiss clock, effortless and confident, that’s how we guests like it, a big no, a Huge thanks for the stay! It gets another “Arnie” - a I’ll be back!”

“I stayed here last night and had a really lovely time. The staff at breakfast were all very pleasant and helpful, but Kai was an absolute standout. He was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure I had everything I needed throughout my meal. His warm and thoughtful service truly made the experience even better. Highly recommend!”

“I have been in a last minute situation of looking for somewhere to live, after Cecilia had rang and we got talking. The whole process made it easier and manageable to deal with. My anxiety was through the roof, yet Cecilia had been so understanding and helped. My whole dealing with the team was amazing. Good job!”

“I rented with Manchester Rent-A-Home for a year and I received great support and correspondence throughout the year from all staff. All of our maintenance issues were dealt with promptly and effectively, including replacement of a broken washing machine and assistance with leaks in the property. Inspections or fire alarm tests were alerted to us in advance and Vanessa and Danielle offered excellent communication and service throughout our tenancy. The property was affordable and in a good area of Manchester, close to city centre and our transition from Ireland to the year's tenancy in England was seamless. I would recommend using Manchester Rent-a-Home to student and professional tenants alike!”

“We stayed here for the Christmas Markets and the Pete Tong event at the AO Arena. Staff were excellent, the room was great. The bar is open until 5am, and you can order food until then also. The location is great too.”

“I recently stayed at Travelodge Manchester Central Arena and had a genuinely pleasant experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome—they were incredibly friendly, warm, and always ready to help with anything I needed. Their kindness really stood out and added a personal touch to my stay. The room was clean and comfortable, offering everything I needed for a restful night. The location was ideal too, with easy access to the city’s attractions and transport links. Overall, it was a smooth and enjoyable stay, thanks in large part to the lovely team at the hotel. I’d happily return on my next visit to Manchester.”

“My stays in Manchester are often in other hotels. This time due to limited availability I decided to stay at AC hotel Manchester city centre. Exceptional stay. Breakfast was one of the best I have had. Outstanding service delivered by Shubh who even made me a fantastic mixed fruit punch. Give this man a promotion ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.”

“My stay at satori was really good. They gave me all the information I needed with plenty of time and had great communication. The rooms were better than I expected and the amenities provided made it feel even more homely.”

“Everything was as I expected for the style and location of an affordable hotel within a reasonable distance to the airport. Nothing fancy, but well maintained and had everything we'd needed. The front desk staff was very helpful and offered suggestions for where my husband could watch a "very important football game" (isn't every game important. lol) as well as restaurant options if we were wanting to eat outside of the hotel. We would definetly stay here again.”

“We only dine here, we don't stay in the hotel as we live locally. The Coach House is our favourite 'go-to' place to eat out. We'll be very sorry to see it close. We've had group family celebrations here, as well as quiet meals out as a couple. Great food, great staff, warm & welcoming atmosphere.”

“A profesional Company looking at the website it clearly shows they invest time and effort in providing quality and service to their clients we rented several properties and we could not fault the service and standard of the properties and location its key they are very experienced agency with great on the ground product knowledge”

“The Manchester College is the largest further education college in the United Kingdom. It is the largest provider of 16–19 and adult education in Greater Manchester. The origins of the college go back to the early 19th century St. John's Sunday school, a pioneering school for workers. By the 1950s this had evolved into St John's and Openshaw Technical College. Later mergers created the Central College Manchester which became The Manchester College of Arts and Technology in Manchester, while institutions in Central Manchester, Fielden Park, Arden and Wythenshawe merged to form City College Manchester.

“Stayed here recently with family and small dog. Loved the decor and comfort of this house. Comfy bed and well equipped. It was spotlessly clean and warm and cosy. Located in a quiet cul de sac with parking. Owners very responsive when messaged and very helpful.”

“Quick overnight stay on way to airport, nice staff on reception, no hassle ,comfy beds but rock solid pillows. Will use again if needed.regards.”

“Overall, a good place to rest in Manchester. Despite the necessity of a new face and a general cleaning, the hotel offers comfortable beds, quiet rooms, and the staff there was very friendly! Moreover, the price was very affordable being an hotel near the city centre (5 min walking).”

“Amazing stay at victory hotel lovely large rooms for me and my family. staff where so Polite and helpful and lovely to talk to. Food was spectacular . Highly recommend staying here and eating here. Also went to a wedding here and the staff did perfect job made the day run smoothly and was very friendly and helpful to everyone at the wedding.”

“Clean, well laid out, good food, friendly and helpful staff. Hairdryer, small fridge, iron and board in room. Tea coffee making facilities in room. Close proximity to trams. Canal looks good at night surrounded by lights. Ample parking. Efficient lifts.”

“It's very amazing. Staff is very cooperative. Each of them is very kind hearted.”

“Outstanding place , a real gem of a find , the pictures really don't do the rooms justice , they're stunning. rounded off by really great friendly staff and superb food ..we can't wait to stay again!”

“Nearly didn't book here due to some bad reviews. Glad I did because the place is fine. It does look a bit tatty on the outside but it is OK inside. Although it is on a main road into Manchester we were surprised at how little traffic there was overnight. Our room was overlooking the road and we had no problem with traffic noise. It had acoustic double glazing that was very effective. There is no air con but a fan is provided which helps. We were there on one of the hottest days/nights and found it tolerable. The meal deal was good. You eat in the pub which is attached to the hotel. Unfortunately it doesn't have any real ale but the Draught Guinness was good. There was a selection of lager and cider. So don't be put off, if it is convenient for you go for it.”

“Najma was excellent..really polite and welcoming. Thanks for the great service. Room was convenient space wise. And also in appliances. Would like to stay on top floor next time though ..Location is bang on also. Overall great spot and pleasant experience and would return. Thanks !”

“Quirky cottage with a modern look.. Nice and clean with a great view over Holmfirth. Excellent location”

“Really enjoyed my stay here, the staff were outstanding and hospitable, the bar next to the lobby had a welcoming, cozy feel, wonderful menu and lovely rooms. I'm not sure about some of the complaints on the size, it seemed average to me, but it was very clean which is high on my importance list, as was the rest of the hotel. This hotel is away from the city bustle a bit, but a lot of trees around the property make it very relaxing and a pleasure to escape the traffic. My only feedback is the vegan sausage in the morning was freezer burned and a little bland, they can be tossed in oil & seasoning to add flavor, but fresh/defrosted is best. My veg pizza was wonderful, so was the veg burger. Great buffet in morning. Outstanding staff professionalism in housekeeping and lobby.”
