we were allocated a room on the 9th floor with great views across the city - large queen room, plenty of storage & lovely modern bathroom - hotel staff very polite & efficient, check-in prompt & easy - loved the swimming pool on the second floor which was long & slim with floor to ceiling windows & views outside (nice... more

This hotel is situated in a very striking wafer-thin building, perhaps the tallest in Manchester. The first 23 or so floors are for the hotel and then above that are private residences though these are accessed through a separate entrance. The rooms are fairly fine 4 star quality. Ask for a room looking towards the GMEX for striking city views... more

Arrived at the hotel, check in was ok. I was advised that my room wasnt ready (it was just after midday so not an issue) but if I wanted I could have another on a lower floor. As I wasnt that worried by the views I accepted the new room. The room itself was small but as I wasnt going... more

So the hotel initially seemed nice – check in was straight forward and the room was nice, though for the price I would expect something a bit bigger and maybe a bit nicer generally. The bar on the top floor is very popular. Even as hotel guests, we had to go to the reception and queue up with the othe... more

Nice hotel to stay at if you don't mind waiting for service every step of the way. Stayed over with friends who had booked and paid for the room in advance. Asked for own card to swipe at check in in case of using extra facilities - no problem, as you would expect when checking in. Told at check in... more

Just back from a very busy weekend in Manchester where we stayed one night at the Hilton in Deansgate (rumour has it that the Manchester City team had just checked out that morning including the newly signed Robinho). Easy to find (we caught the Metro from Piccadilly – only 4 short stops) – the hotel occupies the first 23 storeys... more

Great choice for Manchester, superb hotel in an excellent location. Stayed on the executive floor; very nice room and exceptional bathroom. Very well kitted out, excellent bed and linens and great views. Exec floor facilities were good and the hotel bars, particularly the one on the 23rd floor are well worth a visit. Really enjoyed the stay here and would... more

A friend booked this as a treat for us for a special occassion and managed to get an upgrade to an executive room and a free fruit platter and smoothies. We were on the 21st floor which was pretty special, the immediate view wasn't brilliant but in the distance the view was amazing. Breakfast was on the 23rd floor so... more

This was a thoroughly enjoyable treat. Our request for a high floor was honoured, so we just sat and took in the stunning view both before going out to eat, and late at night. The room was well fitted, though surprisingly a little scuffed, the air con worked and the bathroom was nice, with a frosted glass panel though to... more
