    I had excellent time.

    The location was great and absolutely perfect, a 10-15 minute walk from Manchester City Council. The room was well-organised and comfortable modern and I enjoyed the historic-style building. The services were great.

    this is a bueatiful boutique hotel with classy finishes at every glance bang in the centre of manchester. The most comfortable bed we've ever slept in you just didn't want to get up ! we got a free suite upgrade on arrival.. little touches like 'full size soap' & the double ended tradditional bath in your room with the rooftop hot tub were fab ! ! ther's copius amounts low comfy french antique furniture to throw yourself into. So a fantastic romantic hotel with warm, eager to please staff... I'll be back !

    its very popular so you need to book early..

    I treated my daughter to an overnight stay for her 30th birtday, and I must say, It is hard to find a small hotel that offers style, quality and such luxurious comfort. The staff were friendly and effcient. The rooftop terrace was stunning, and I can't believe you get so much for the price.
