Top Chinatown Hotel Reviews

Motel One Manchester-St. Peter's Square

10/10 Excellent

"Handy location, clean and comfortable room."

Radisson Blu Medlock Hotel, Manchester

8/10 Good

"Really enjoyed our stay at the Radisson Blu Medlock Hotel in Manchester. The hotel has only just opened, so everything is brand new, fresh and modern, which was lovely. The staff were absolutely lovely throughout our stay — very friendly, welcoming and always happy to help. Our room was really nice, comfortable and beautifully presented. Breakfast was also very nice, with a good choice and a great way to start the day. The location is fantastic, especially if you’re attending an event at the Co-op Live Arena. It’s very convenient and makes getting to and from the arena really easy. The only small negative is that there is currently quite a lot of building work going on around the hotel. This is understandable with everything being so new and hopefully will only be temporary. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely return, especially when visiting Manchester for an event at the Co-op Live Arena. Lovely new hotel, great location and fantastic staff. Highly recommended!"

Holiday Inn Express Manchester City Centre Arena by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely hotel that was spotlessly clean, beds were very comfortable, bathroom was nice. Staff were very helpful and with a nice breakfast included, I couldn't really fault the hotel. Price of the room was reasonable as breakfast was included. The lift was super fast and I would definitely stay at this hotel again. Thank You so much The Holiday Inn Express. 10 out of 10."
