I had a great stay and would stay again and also recommend to others. Easy to get around, my stay was based on attending the Albert Hall which was literally less than a 10min walk.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (110 reviews)
Staff were great especially Lucy in the restaurant. Hotel is a gem. Breakfast was delicious and gym is nice and big with lots of equipment. Only negative was the service charge on the bill. I hope this isn't going to bleed into the hotel sector so owners can pay their staff less. I paid this time but definitely will not pay again.

Room size was good. Receptionist was very kind. Free car parking space added extra value of stay. Hot water shower was quick and comfort water pressure. Only drawback is cleanliness. Toilet seat rim has yellow stains. And there was not toilet roll in the room but paper handkerchief box helped a bit. Recommend if travellers seeking good value stay near salford

"The history of the hotel and the area, is very interesting as well as the Haverthwaite railway and close to the motor museum, both well worth a visit. The hotel itself although a little dated was charming. The staff were friendly and obliging but there may be more of them needed for busier times. ..."
