Widnes Hotel Reviews

Expedia Verified Review…

5 / 5

Everything about this hotel was perfect for us. The staff are lovely, room was fantastic and the location was perfect for everything we wanted to do. It’s a great area that’s close to a lot of restaurants and bars (although I’d recommend the hotel bar ‘Club Brass’, the cocktails taste amazing and the terraces give you nice views or Manchester) …
