Good Value

The check-in staff offered us an upgrade so we could have the same room for 7 nights, and that was greatly appreciated!

Stylisches Hotel

Das Personal ist nett und die LAge an der Wilmslowroad nicht schlecht. DIe Bushaltestelle Richtung Innenstadt (ca. 20min) ist vor der Haustür. Keine Baustellen in der Nähe und bis auf den einen oder anderen angetrunkenen Engländer auf nächtlichem Spazirgang im Flur hat man seine Ruhe. Das british breakfast ist ordentlich. Kann ich nur empfehlen. Mit der Sauberkeit hapert es ein wenig: Nachdem wir an der Rezeption erwähnten dass das Bad bezüglich der Hygene nicht unseren Erwartungen enspricht bekamen wir dafür ein besseres Zimmer ohne Aufpreis angeboten. Die Lounge und der Essenssaal sehr schmackhaft dekoriert. Zum wohlfühlen und ein Fest fürs Auge.
