Romantic getaways in Manchester

“Great place original and unique interior !!! Friendly and helpful staff!!! Enjoyed our visit to Manchester and staying at The James hotel”

“A perfect way to beat the heat on a warm summer’s day! The cruise was excellent, with an engaging, well-spoken guide who shared plenty of interesting facts. The crew were warm and helpful, and the boarding point—right under the Millennium Footbridge by The Lowry Theatre—was clearly signposted. Great value for money, offering a chance to explore hidden corners of Manchester and Salford you wouldn’t normally see, including MediaCity, The Lowry, the Imperial War Museum North, Old Trafford, and the historic Manchester Ship Canal. Absolutely worth it!”

“This place is a hidden gem! Don’t be fooled by some of the old fashioned decor, spend a night here and you realise it only add to the charm. What do you really need from a hotel, tidy, clean, great service, top breakfast, brilliant location. It may be a 3* in build but you are treated to a 5* stay!”

“Nice room but has no USB port or shaver point. High bed. Nice and clean. Lovely breakfast and dinner well worth the money. Amble parking register on way in for free parking. Close to shopping centre.”

“All the staff (especially Katieann) are so helpful, friendly and so approachable. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I recommend to all my friends to go to Manchester Virgin. I only know the staff through going to Manchester Virgin but they come across as your friends. Just what you want when you are shopping around for a holiday. X”

“Damian at Belle Vue coaches went above and beyond to meet our requests. He was really flexible and helpful in meeting our travel needs. Colin and John, our drivers for the day were a pleasure. They were cheerful and helpful and made our day extra special. We would certainly recommend Belle Vue coaches and will definitely use them again.”

“The room was very clean and comfortable, basic amenities, bed very comfy. The house keeping was very good. The location for MRI hospital could not have been better. 10 minutes walk away. Local amenities good, petrol station, tesco, subway etc. Parking at the back of the travel lodge at a very reasonable price.”

“Very friendly, clean rooms, good TV channel selection. Cooked breakfast was decent. Only slight thing was the lack of an exit to the car park from the other side of the hotel which meant going back via reception, but I'm really being picky there. Staff couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. Would absolutely recommend if you need to be in the area.”

“Salford Quays Travelodge is the best in the whole country! Our favourite place to stay. Perfect for getting around Manchester by tram, and ideally situated for The Lowry theatre. And lovely Ordsall Hall. This Travelodge is always comfortable, warm and welcoming. The staff are smashing. Big thanks this time to Lavinia, Kevin and the nice young man who kept our delicious breakfasts topped up - I'm so sorry I didn't get your name. Already looking forward to our next visit.”

“Me and my partner stayed over for a night. We was really pleased with the service. Charlotte was outstanding with her service. Very very happy customers to say the least. Charlotte deserves a pay rise. Also have to say we was assisted also by lovely woman called Jo and she was also just very polite and helpful. 2 lovely people thanks for the service. We will be back again for sure. Once again food was outstanding very tasty x”

“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.”

“One of the Best Travel agency in Manchester i have ever been , I have booked the Cheap flights through them and found eric as the best travel agent keep it up mate .”

“I came over for a business trip from New York and was advised by my company to check out this place. I’m glad I did. The property was really spacious and a real home from home. Fantastic place with convenient keyless entry”

“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.”

“Managed and maintained really well by urban bubble. Everything is cleaned and looked after to a great standard, ever since we moved in”

“Pretty little hotel on country road”

“I was very wary that this place was a scam but I can assure you that no hard sale was given and all promises were kept. If you do not like what you see then you just walk away after the presentation and say no thank you. For us at the present time the pitch was not something for us but we are looking forwards to the free week holiday and maybe in the future it will be something we are interested in. We was also given £75 of tesco vouchers to spend. John and Jamie our agents were fab. Thank you both and thank you clc for our week holiday which is already booked for June next year to Costa del sol :)”

“A lovely cottage in a very quiet location with splendid views. Very comfortable, well presented and spacious accomodation, with a log burner in the lounge, and excellent range cooker in the kitchen. Spacious main bedroom with very comfortable bed, and well equiped bathroom. Very suitable for dog owners with footpaths on the doorstep. We shall certainly return.”

“Such a lovely place to see Alpacas up close. Claire was really knowledgeable and the alpacas were really friendly. Lovely setting too. Easy to find with what 3 words. Great to be able to feed the animals and stroke them. Claire clearly cared a lot about the animals and making sure they were well fed, clean and looked after. Good value for money in a group.”

“Very efficient service very happy with Milaad travels.....very excited !!! No issues . Hafiz was very helpful and gave us the best service...highly recommend....thankyou Jules n emma”

“Fast service very helpful 10/10 service highly recommend”

“I recently completed Umrah with my mother under the guidance of Heritage Umrah/Mayar Travel and I would like to commend the team for their professionalism and exceptional level of care throughout the journey. Our group leader, Amr, demonstrated outstanding organisation and attentiveness from the outset. He provided clear and consistent guidance during the performance of Umrah, ensuring I was supported and fully informed at each stage. When my mother required a wheelchair to complete her Umrah, Amr arranged this with great efficiency and consideration, allowing her to participate comfortably and with dignity. During my time in Makkah, I experienced a period of illness, and Amr provided valuable assistance by accompanying me to the hospital and facilitating my treatment. His calm approach and reliability offered significant reassurance to both me and my mother. The ziyarah visits were also well structured, with ample time allocated for reflection and prayer. Every aspect of the itinerary was managed with care and professionalism, contributing to a smooth and spiritually fulfilling experience. Overall, I found Mayar Travel to be a highly organised and trustworthy company. Amr’s leadership, attention to detail, and commitment to the wellbeing of each pilgrim were evident throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend Heritage Umrah to anyone seeking a reliable and supportive service for their pilgrimage.”

“We have booked our last four ski holidays with Get Me To The Alps, and every experience has been outstanding from start to finish. They take all the stress out of planning by handling every detail with professionalism and care. From choosing the perfect resort to arranging accommodation, transfers, and lift passes, they make the entire process so straightforward that booking a ski holiday becomes a pleasure rather than a chore. What really sets them apart is how helpful and responsive they are at every stage. No question is too small, and they’re always quick to provide advice or updates, which gives you complete peace of mind. It’s rare to find a company that combines excellent customer service with such efficiency, but they truly deliver on both. Knowing that everything is organised by one reliable company means we can simply relax and look forward to our trip. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Get Me To The Alps to anyone planning a ski holiday – they make the whole experience seamless and enjoyable every single time.”

“I booked several day tours from RobinGo Tours . Anna was very helpful and knowledgeable. Excellent service! Highly recommended! Cindy”

“I just wanted to say, we had an absolutely AMAZING holiday. It was the best resort we've ever stayed in and has totally changed my mind about all-inclusives which I normally find a bit claustrophobic and repetitive. It was perfect from start to finish, despite the odd cloudy day! We had connecting rooms as requested and they made a big fuss of our son on his birthday! I’m already planning our next trip with you x”
