ABode Hotel, Manchester

Breakfast was grand. Had a seat near the window watching the drones going to work

Being told the kitchen open till 8.30 and being told at 7.15 that the chef had gone home as it was quiet.

Omar went out of his way to find a cooler room for me. His efforts were much appreciated.

The elevator was out of service. Apparently this is not unusual.

The location was excellent The suite rooms and spacious environment. Lovely comfortable bed

Poor service at Breakfast Waiting for long, no cutlery on the table. No fridge in room

Location

Breakfast

The interior was lovely, clean and up to date

The breakfast took along time to come out and I was missing toast and my beans were cold. Latte was a flat white but staff corrected issues immediately

Great location, very close to the train station. Beautiful building, decent sized rooms with the essentials.

Nothing negative.

The location was good , very central to everything

We parked in the carpark tha we were told we would receive a discount on and did everything that the reception staff told us and then ended up paying £40 for 2 nights

A couple of minutes from the Piccadilly station in the city centre. The staff was friendly, the room was nice & clean. Nice breakfast

Nothing

Amazing location. Really lovely rooms. Super spacious.

Only had the one lift that took forever.

Location super. Comfortable hotel, great staff

Parts of it a little dated

Location excellent, 5 min walk from Piccadilly train station. Large room,clean. Cooked Breakfast was very tasty. On chap on reception was very pleasant and personable.made us feel welcome.

The interior in general was a bit tired in places but that’s what we expected by choosing an older style building. The room windows sound proofing was not great, but again we were in the city centre location so expected some noise.

The location is excellent, friendly staff and great value for money. We really enjoyed the breakfast and the discounted parking

Size of the room could have been slightly bigger

Close to Piccadilly railway station and free buses which made getting around the city easy

Appliances a bit worn and needing patience to use. TV picture weirdly sized so that the top was cut off and saw talking mouths rather than full face. Disconcerting watching the news as well as other programmes. Lift was out for maintenance for a full day.

Central location

We were able to leave our bags at reception before check in time, when we arrived back at hotel later to check in our bags had been taken to room for us, a lovely touch I thought

Nothing

Location ,really close to station and staff were friendly

Couldn't open the windows

Enjoyed it all

It's just in the process of a referb, as pictures were not on walls under lights etc but not an issue for us

Beautiful building with period features, spacious room with high ceilings, big windows and tasteful decor, good selection of clipper teas. Pleasant receptionist. Great central location

The lift wasn’t working. The full English breakfast was quite overcooked and I felt very sorry for the waiter who was lovely but seemed to be on his own. Hire more restaurant staff! A desk lamp in the room would’ve been helpful.

Clean, comfy, lovely spacious bathroom.

A little fridge within the room would make this perfect. Slight hiccup when I arrived, no hot water - was fixed a few hours later. The cafe/restaurant downstairs was not great, waited to be seated at sign for 20 mins - no staff came out, sat myself, waited another 20 mins. Ask what I wanted, said drink and made to go up and order at the bar - whilst he served everyone else at table. Service left a little to be desired there. Couldn’t fault the staff at front desk.

The bed and the size of the room. The location was perfect. Facilities in the room were an added bonus.

We wasn't told of the parking options in advance therefore paid £27 for parking overnight at a nearby multi storey. The noise from the road even with double glazing.

Modern but with old world charm

Hotel is great value for money

A very high standard hotel for such a good price. The breakfast was very good.

The room did get a bit stuffy and the radiator did not turn off, it seemed to be faulty.

Style and Rumanian girl on front desk

Restaurant closed early

Lovely bedroom with huge bed and beautiful bathroom. Well kitted out. Excellent breakfast and very friendly staff.

The TV in bedroom could do with up grading.

Original features in the main entrance and staircase are fantastic. Breakfast was really good and the young lad on reception checking us in was really welcoming and helpful in us finding our way to where we wanted to be

Great location just off Piccadilly gardens . Asked for a quiet room and it certainly delivered. Great bathroom

Check in was a little slow

Fantastic position, building and decor

There was no water on arrival at 3 pm but when we returned later it had been sorted

Great location, nice impression as you enter, most staff are friendly and room has lots of space and high ceilings. Good bathroom and room interior, plenty of refreshments. Comfy pillows. Cocktails were good. Liked interior of bar and would be nice to have information about what the building was in it's previous life. Emily was a friendly staff member at breakfast. It looks a lot better to the photo used on booking.com. Would stay again.

Lift terribly slow. No room signs to guide customers where to go. Place seems a bit of maze if you get disoriented. It wasn't a peaceful night, whether it was internal heating system alongside the outside noise, i will probably ask for the quiet side. You need your spinach to draw the massive curtains! Was quite warm in room, no way to control heating or get some cool air through. The internal large window did open and hoped the draft would come through. Perhaps wouldn't want to stay here in summer. The breakfast was ok but not amazing and doesn't match the cost, i would probably find a spoons or a cafe nearby. I asked for no mushroom but was the plate. No butter with bread, had to ask for that as well as sauce, staff not forthcoming to ask if you want anything else. The bathroom handle fell off, fortunately had already used bathroom. Would like a small guide with details about what is nearby and also menus for bar in the room as you would expect etc. Some wear and tear and not much attention to lower level of skirting areas in room, no room down either side of bed so if you're a larger person perhaps avoid 102. Plenty of plug sockets, but only one by bedside and was tricky to reach.

Huge comfy bed and nice restaurant, close to train station

Full of character and charm.

Just a minor observation, nothing bad here. Mismatch of old and new styles in the furniture.

I've tried several hotels in Manchester and this is the one I keep coming back to. Characterful building in a very convenient location for the station and for the bars and restaurants of the Northern Quarter.

I didn't seem to be able to turn down the heating in my room.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The location is very central, which made everything super convenient, especially being just a 4-minute walk from Manchester Piccadilly station. There are also plenty of cafes, restaurants, and bars right around the corner. The staff were friendly, approachable, and easy to communicate with, which made the experience even better. The room was clean, and the bed and sheets were incredibly comfortable—I honestly slept like I was on clouds. I didn’t get a chance to try the breakfast, so I can’t comment on that. Late check-in was available, which was also a big plus.

The only downside for me was the price—it felt a little costly for what you get. That said, I understand this seems to be quite common in Manchester overall.

Excellent location, room larger than expected, amenities good, liked the style too.

Nothing, all good really

The location

Slightly dated

eating area and bar very pleasant. nice to see old parts of the building still in place and very nice bathroom

the room itself was fine but the bed was very, very low to the ground and very limited room especially on one side of the bed by the window wall had to more or less shuffle along the bed. We came back for food in the afternoon my wife is Gluten Free so more limited options as normal she ordered the shredded duck salad but no duck, she then ordered ham hock salad but, no ham hock. only salad option was caesar salad but obviously could not have the croutons so asked for chicken with it so basically got a bed of salad leaves with some chicken on top. Finally we then had to wait quite a while for our meals as we were told that the chicken had not been prepared by the earlier chef. I had the club sandwich so also waited for the chicken. Very disapointing

A really great hotel in an ideal location. Good sized twin room with an excellent breakfast. Location was easy to get to with parking just behind the hotel. Would definitely use again if visiting Manchester,

Great location. Outside car parking available less than 5 minutes walk away at a discounted price. Beautiful old building with modern amenities. You get what you pay for but I’d definitely stay here again.

Excellent location, fab breakfast, nice staff.

Nothing

Location, Hotel and facilities

Close to piccadily station, good offers on cocktails.

Staff were not very attentive especially in the restaurant both a meal in the afternoon and breakfast. We had to keep asking for butter sauces cutlery and table to be cleared but the actual food was very nice.

Its location, cleanliness, facilities and very helpful staff.

Nothing

We were upgraded to a lovely top floor suite, which was really comfortable, calm and stylish. The hotel itself is just beautiful, with original art nouveau tiles on the stairs. The staff are extremely kind and helpful.

The hotel is waiting for some work to be done... The lift didn't go all the way to the top floor because of a fault, and a tap fell off the bath – but these issues didn't affect our stay at all.

Good location, lovely decor

Nothing

Location good , staff helpful hotel clean

Breakfast very very expensive , The Ivy much cheaper. Only told about dawn to dusk offer / discount when i enquired on check out after seeing a small poster by the lift. This offer should be explained to everyone on check in .

Location and breakfast. Great shower

Room was a little cold. One mug wasn’t clean

Comfy bed, cool decor, friendly staff, exceptional breakfast! Great location for the centre of Manchester too.

Cold room early evening however maintenance man came with a portable heater which did the trick.

Spacious room, well decorated. Free sparkling water was a nice touch.

Shower wasn't quite warm enough! Bed was a bit too soft.

Easy to find, right in the centre of where we needed to be

We arrived and was told the room was ready-we’d asked for a high up room as Piccadilly is loud. Went to the room and it wasn’t yet ready-there was still rubbish and bedding left from the last occupants

Great staff! A really friendly and super helpful man (sorry we didn’t get your name!) at the reception gave us great recommendations and upgraded our room! Would definitely stay again next time we are in Manchester.

Location, style, comfy beds, spacious room

I wasn’t given a Wi-Fi password / there wasn’t a clear sign to connect in the room. A little scuffed / rough around the edges from general wear and tear
