“time machine -- great for children”

The hotel is in an old insurance building from the Edwardian days. The ceiling to our room was thirty feet high. Everywhere spiral staircases, dark paneling, tiled columns of an extremely beautiful nature. Breakfast in what had once been the lobby -- huge room and huge buffet. Staff very friendly. the concierge found a health clinic for my husband and checked up on us afterwards. Nice. The architecture was a great history lesson for my grandchildren.

Area recommendations
Only stayed overnight and unable to see much of the city because my husband was ill.
Getting there
The hotel is right across the street from the train that connects the airport to the city. Most convenient.

“Good Hotel BUT be careful”

Stayed at this hotel for a 1 night after going to a Take That concert. The first room we were given was clean but very scruffy with the carpet being threadbare in one place and mould around the bath inbetween the bath and the wall. I called reception to complain and someone came to our room quickly with keys for another room which was far superior to the 1st one. I guess the 2nd room had been refurbished whereas the 1st one was in urgent need of refurbishment. Apart from this bad start, the staff were very helful and the breakfast was good

“Make sure you get a renovated room”

My first room was the worst room i ever saw. Threadbare carpet patched with duct tape, ancient beds, rotted wood floor in bathroom. I requested a different room that was much better, much smaller but newly renovated. Make sure they give you a new room !!

“Some good, some less good”

I booked 6 rooms and every room bar mine was great - there was a strange odour (rm 266). We changed to a different room on the Sat that was very nice. Restaurant was booked for Sat evening - again a bit average, some lovely food and some of it disappointing. With a bit more work this could be something special.

“Nice hotel but needs work”

The public spaces at the hotel are very nice - except for the pub which has no character at all - even during the World Cup. Be aware that any gratuities in the restaurant & the bar go to management, not the staff. Also, don't know if it was booking from a foreign country or not, but my room was all the way down the end of the hall with a tiny window looking over a parking lot. I understand they have put a lot of money into renovation, but I guess they hadn't gotten to my room yet - cracks on the ceiling and on the walls. Happily the bathroom was as big as the room. Very convenient - between the University & downtown - but won't be staying there again on my next trip.

Area recommendations
Downtown is lots of fun for shopping with a good park for people watching
Dining
Chinatown - the 2nd largest in the UK - is a lot of fun - think dim sum! For Indian, I would like to really (really) recommend Swadesh. Hot as you like it - or not. We met the owner who happened to be at the newest one, near the University, and he was charming as could be, and full of helpful suggestions. this is not "cheap & cheerful" (although it isn't so expensive), but really wonderful food in a clean, upscale, contemporary space. We saw a couple of the airline pilots staying at our hotel, some big groups, families (with and without small children) and everybody seemed to be pretty happy. Would definitely go back!!!

“Very impressed with this hotel”

The standard of the Palace Hotel, Manchester was very good. The quality of food was exceptional. We took advantage of the evening meal which was on offer - waiter and waitress service very good. We were very impressed with the hotel surroundings and decor. Our room was a standard room with old fashioned furnishings but there were more modern rooms if required. Very comfortable. Staff very helpful and an overall good experience at this hotel.

Area recommendations
I would recommend the Palace Hotel area as it was central to everything ie shops, pubs and restaurants, also next door to Palace Theatre. It was about a slow 15 minute walk to Arndale and other city sites so very convenient. 5/10 minutes walk to Manchester Picadilly and also very near another small station literally across the road.
Getting there
We travelled from Euston to Manchester Picadilly and journey took about 2 hours 20 minutes. Area we were going to in Manchester was only 5/10 minutes walk from station so very convenient and cenral.
Events and shows
We stayed in the Palace Hotel and saw a show the evening we arrived. Literally next door to Theatre so I would recommend this hotel for theatre or cinema which was across the road from hotel.

“Four star hotel I think not”

I didn't expect the plaster to be falling off the ceiling. Some bleach for the mildew on the shower head would have been nice.
