Lakes Peninsula Cheap Holidays

In general the hotel is nice. Lifts are quick, if a little confusing, because of the need to validate each upward journey. Breakfast was good as was the view. The air-con was insufficient to maintain a nice temperature with a winter duvet so I slept on top of the duvet so as to not overheat. My main complaint is that I booked a twin and got a double handicapped suite! The suite was nice but having to sleep with my adult son did not make me or him happy. For that reason sleep was intermittent, however, the bed itself was comfortable. Other issue was that the recommended parking (Printworks) is about a block away and is not dead cheap. If it's raining then getting your luggage to and from your car will be a issue. We were lucky.

Really cool, unique, hotel. Excellently located. Clean and central Manchester location. Amazing value as our midweek stay included £30 meal token and a free drink. Can't fault it, would stay again

Very frequent room cleaning compared to mostt stays

First time staying in Manchester and first time at the "The Alan" in both cases it will not be the last. Fantastic hotel with great rooms, friendly staff (Jeff) and really good breakfast. Quality bed, quality towels and simple layout to the room. Staff were amazing and very helpful and the location of the hotel could not be better for exploring Manchester.

Lovely location, pretty property. Good food. Staff were great.

The check-in process was slow. The room had one dining chair missing from the table and the soundproofing was not effective. I could hear the lift and also streetnoise as the window did not tightly close. The space was great and the breakfast was good.

So having arrived at 3pm i got settled got to the gym etc, just about to cook dinner as the apartments have a kitchen and i hear the door lock go, and a lady with her bags enters my room. Having both looked shocked we went downstairs (we were not together to make it clear) to find out why we were both allocated the same room, to this day I still have no idea how one member of staff allocated me a room and another member of staff didnt know I was in there. I was certianly not impressed and the lady wasnt either, if it had been the opposite way round and I had walked into her room would have been a much worse story, poor indeed...

Can’t fault the place. Would definitely return and recommend

It was okay but the room I stayed in was tight by the roadside. The noise filtered into the room at all hours of the day and night.

Some marks on two of the towels, was charged £3.50 for a tray for room service didn’t get a tray neither got got the spoons to eat our desert

Nice clean hotel. Staff very helpful. Excellent breakfast options. WiFi not great though
