Top MediaCityUK Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Manchester - Salford Quays by IHG

8/10 Good

"Good location and clean room but was a lack of hot water which seemed to drop in and out but overall experience good"

ibis budget Manchester Salford Quays

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly helpful staff"

Hotel Football, Old Trafford, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very clean, loved the free mini bar"

AC Hotel by Marriott, Manchester Salford Quays

8/10 Good

"The rooms were very clean and comfortable although the beds are small but the rooms big enough to fit bigger beds in. The bath is also very narrow. I am of average build and height but could not stand normally in the shower due to the base being so narrow it slopes up so you have to stand sideways to avoid falling over. This is enough for me not to book this hotel again alone as I was always scared of slipping as i tried to move in the shower. There is plenty of room for shower trays rather than a bath."

Holiday Inn Manchester-Media City UK by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely fine place to stay for a quick visit to the area"

Quay Apartments

8/10 Good

"Property was new and clean inside. No noise from other apartments. Overall a good stay. Nearby shop for food basics and near to the Tram line to go into town. No complaints. If security is a concern for you it is very lax here. Lobby door left open night and day, and security staff not a deterrent. Secure access tag for the elevator does not work, so open access to use the lifts. Overall though we saw no issues."

Premier Inn Manchester Old Trafford

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect place to stay, especially with how close to old trafford"

Premier Inn Manchester Salford Quays

8/10 Good

"Good for price"

Pillo Rooms Serviced Apartments- Salford

10/10 Excellent

"I had a fabulous stay. The bed was comfortable, the apartment was clean and tidy although the shower attachment holder was broken so had to strategically position it so I could have a hands free shower. Also the shower drain was blocked which I unblocked - looked like it hadn't had a proper deep clean for a few months. I wouldn't have noticed this if the water drained away properly. Overall a fab apartment at a ridiculously low price in comparison to others."
