Lovely hotel and staff are amazing. Have stayed here before and would do again. Only negative is room 445 the air con was not effective at all and room was very hot. Workers up in the night s we were warm.
21.01.2026 Guest
no parking at this establishment and no dropping off available at times as their maintenance and delivery vans might take up the small space cut into the front pavement. They do provide you with a discount voucher at nearby public carparks. Rooms are clean but the decorating is a patch up job throughout. The noise from the tram it is horrible and through the night as windows are not soundproof. In our room the heating was out of order and oil filled radiators were put up instead. Television sets have either the option for TV channels or to connect to your phone: bad aerial prevented viewing most channels and TV only connected to the staff's androids and not to our iphones. There was no options for apps such as youtube or netflix and kids have to entertain themselves on their tablet. Swimming pool is the size of a private one in a residential home. Staff is courteous and the breakfast is way and beyond satisfactory. The majestic hall from their photos was nowhere to be seen. Would go again if no other options shall be available at the time.

We had a fabulous stay at The Midland. It had a luxurious feel straight from the lobby with flavoured water, diffusers and welcoming staff. Our room was beautiful and we had complimentary turn down each day. We would come back!
10.11.2025 Guest
Staff were really helpful, and the reception, bar area looks so pretty with the lights everywhere. The bedroom doors were very tired looking and didn't live up to the rest of the hotel. Our AC didn't work, and you couldn't open the window, we did call down to reception and the lady said she could control it but it didn't change and was very hot.
21.10.2025 Guest
Excellent hotel, booked a superior room but not items listed in room were present. Still a great stay though, booking staff were very helpful
21.09.2025 Guest
Lovely spacious room. The hotel itself was immaculate, and the complimentary use of the spa facilities (1hr) is a nice touch. This hotel is right in the centre of Manchester, so there are lots of things to do within walking distance.
03.07.2025 Guest
This is a grand and historic hotel, and I had a very comfortable stay. Its location is fantastic, right in the city center and just a short walk from Manchester's Chinatown. My only complaints are the unclear smoking signs near the entrance and the tiny ashtrays provided. There was also no doorman to offer assistance or reminders. This could easily lead to fines (as enforcement seemed rather discreet), which unfortunately cast a shadow of frustration and disappointment over my trip.

Lovely hotel would recommend to anyone visiting Manchester

Good hospitality.
Reasonably priced drinks.
Readily accessible for theatres -Bridgewater, Palace and Opera house.
Good shows but far too expensive the drinks at all three theatres and pubs nearby.
12.12.2017 Abizer
Good as a English bar. More of contemporary e flush and with young crowd. Wide range of drinks and good food. It’s a great place for college friends to hang out.
05.12.2017 Pete
Large pub with plenty of seating good atmosphere, food served is typical weatherspoons menu as in you know what to expect.

Food quality decent and choice of real ales on draft and bottled.
Gets busy on Saturdays with it being in the town centre
03.12.2017 Matt
The steak club serves up steaks that are on point, better quality than more expensive rival pub chain restaurants, hands down the best tasting steaks I've eaten (and I've paid over £25 for a steak that wasn't as tasty as this). The burgers are always great and the prices are very good. The Paramount does get busy after the offices spill out at 5pm but normally you can find a seat unless there is a number of events on around Town.

Visited here for the first time on a busy Friday night. The Christmas Markets were on and it was shortly after knocking off time but our group of 3 were quickly and politely seated within a few minutes of arriving.

Food was expensive for what you got when compared to things like 'beer and a burger' at Wetherspoons. I'd definitely recommend the fries though as they were very filling with different toppings.

Only negatives were the loud music and having to wait nearly 15 minutes for the bill.
16.11.2017 Jason
Just amazing good, definitely nothing slimming world or WW friendly but so reliably good. Not the cheapest but definitely the best. Drinks menu is pretty extensive
12.11.2017 E&C
We went there with no reservations on a Saturday night and it was crowded. We were seated within 15 minutes without issue. It is quite a loud place, as you may suspect, so conversations can be a challenge. The bartender was mixing the drinks at a face pace and from what we saw, she was not skimping on the alcohol. The burger choices are a bit overwhelming especially if you just want a plain cheese burger. The fried pickles are a good treat so be sure to ask for them as they are not on the menu as a side. Overall, the burgers were a bit overcooked. The toppings were plenty and delicious. You should now understand why there are paper towels on the table (eating is messy). Try the shakes (we didn't ) as they looked yummy.

If you've ever used the phrase "Cheeky Nandos" either ironically or not, you'll like it.

Fantastic burgers. The beef its self lacking but make up for it with sauce that is unmatched. It is the kinda of place that is part of the recently overly excessive burgers. I went during a £10 for a burger and beer with fries and found this to be a great deal.

Nice interior, friendly staff.
21.10.2017 James
Great food and nice staff. Pricey it has to be said, but a very nice meal. A little note, the chips have large portions... And enough for two people who consume an average amount of food. Me and my girlfriend ordered one each and had to battle through them because there was so much!

Good place tho. Give it a go.

Greeted by you have until 730pm to vacate your table.. This was 515pm..
Food served prompt , so prompt the main meal came out within seconds of the starter.. Service was awful, price was ridiculous and all together a poor experience. Not recommended at all. Not being funny but other customers where complaining about the rudeness of the staff..
12.12.2017 Catherine
Small, cosy and very welcoming. Lovely reasonably priced memu
23.11.2017 Simon
Nice Turkish food - very meat heavy, but veg options available. Quick but not rushed, friendly staff. Recommended.
21.11.2017 Kyril
Nice good quality Turkish food presented nicely and the staff were amazing. They were well worth the trip just to talk too.
20.08.2017 Joanne
Great food and great service. I had read a few reviews stating that this restaurant was not suitable for vegetarians but nearly all of the starters were vegetarian and there were also several main dishes to choose from. My boyfriend really enjoyed his meat dishes too. We did the 2 course evening menu for £15.50 and asked for an additional starter of hummus and pitta. The waitress very kindly pointed out that all starters come with pitta anyway so she just added on a plate of hummus, at no charge. Service was friendly and quick. As a vegetarian, I would definitely eat here again and would highly recommend it. My boyfriend has visited several areas of Turkey and said the food was as good as anything he had eaten there!
