A very relaxing and pleasant short stay at the Midland Hotel. Great location; super breakfast and clean and spacious room.

Swimming Pool, Breakfast, Friendly Staff

staff attitude

nothing

Excellent hotel right in the city centre. Staff helpful polite but the breakfast serving staff were a little too over familiar.
Room quiet air con brill bed comfy.....
Room cost £110.00 and that included a full English.
As a hotel guest I had access to swimming pool and gym.
I would stay here again. Excellent value for money.

The hotel building. Recently updated throughout without losing its Victorian charm.

Over familiar Breakfast wating staff,

accommodation standard

nothing

We have stayed at the Midland previously and this visit didn't match the previous one. The room we were given was on the 6th floor and located overlooking the main tram area which was very noisy from revellers. The ceiling had large cracks and the window sill also had a large crack which looked like an attempt had been made to glue it together. The bedside tables/night stands were full of dust and looked like they hadn't been cleaned for a number of weeks. The sink in the bathroom wasn't working correctly, the water wouldn't drain away properly. The bar area was clean and relaxing. There was plently of choice at breakfast and this was good. The reception staff and concierge were very polite, courteous and professional.

The communal areas

The room

Excellent hotel, I would realy struggle to criticise this hotel. It is clean, comfortable, professional and friendly staff. Can't fault it and it is consistently of this standard as I have stayed a few times.

Everything!

Nothing!

From booking in the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were able to book a taxi from the reception to go to see Bruce Springsteen. The room was beautifully decorated and furnished. Everything was cleaned to my high standards so it was like home. We ate in the Octagon Lounge, service was prompt and again very friendly. My meal came with pine nuts not cashew as described in the menu but this did not spoil the meal at all. The night's stay including breakfast was excellent value for money. And we enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the drink when we returned from our awesome evening out. A fitting birthday and first anniversary treat!

The staff were naturally friendly and helpful.

N/A

be aware !! expensive for a BB £180 for one night, heat stains (cup marks) on the furniture in the room, lovely bathroom !! Good air con. Breakfast was average and expected more from this hotel, everything was luke warm except for the beans !!!

location

heat marks on furniture in the room

A fantastic old style hotel. The room was excellent and peaceful. The only complaint would be the service at breakfast when the waiters took away our tea and coffee while we were at the buffet. They also seemed more intent on noisily clearing empty tables around us and did not return to take away our used plates during the breakfast.

The look and feel of the hotel and its location

Breakfast service

Good location in central Manchester. Double room is nicely appointed, but on the small side. More comfortable for one person than two. Facilities in room good - flatscreen TV, internet availability, mini-bar etc. Good size, well appointed en-suite bathroom. Our room rate included the buffet breakfast. Choice was good, but the hot food was not very hot. The Metrolink tram runs alongside the hotel. Depending on where your room is, you can hear the rumbling noise as trams pass.

Efficient checking in and out

Hot buffet breakfast was lukewarm. Rumbling noise from passing trams.

all in all an enjoyable stay really liked the old world charm of the hotel and the very good location.The bar prices were very expensive and the service at breakfast could have been alot more efficient with the obvious things missing off the table it would not take much time or effort to ensure customers are better cared for.But would definitely go back here again and recommend it to others.

ambiance and location excellent

breakfast sevice very haphazard,no milk ,sugar on table had to ask for tea,coffee twice

It was a very comfortouble stay very nice staff
very clean right in the heart of manchester you
couldnt go wrong.

hotel its self

cant answer that I liked all

I stayed in a single room (single bed) at the top of the hotel for two nights. It was clean, reasonably spacious and had everything you would expect (including outrageous prices for the mini bar). I didn't put the do not disturb sign on my door and was awakened at 8am when the door was opened by staff so be warned. Staff were courteous and I had no problems with the reservation or the bill. If you can get a good deal then it is worth it. Very handy for the Registry Office!

Clean and good location

nothing really

This is a lovely hotel to stay in but avoid the buffet breakfast at all costs - its dusgusting. Be sure to order something fresh from the menu e.g. poached eggs or go for room only and have breakfast at one of a number of nearby cafes.

The rooms and general ambience

The buffet breakfast

Woken at 5am by next room neighbours who weren't being at all noisy - normal level of conversation only. Are the walls paper thin?

Breakfast 10am Sat, freshness of hot food and variety of bread/cake products a little disappointing.

Overall impression - good, could do better.
