New York Times review:

“Across from the Piccadilly Rail Station, the sleek design inside Motel One, an outpost of the German budget hotel chain, makes up for the more dingy feel of the street outside.”

Great place for a stopover in Manchester.

As someone traveling and looking for an overnight stay before a very early train, the location is excellent, The staff on reception were really friendly and helpful. As someone whose back was telling me I'd spent a weekend at an event with more "primitive" facilities, the funky little chairs in the rooms and the mattress were really comfy.

It would have been nice to have had a water glass in the shower room, but I just used one of the cups from the tea/coffee facilities.

A very pleasant stay and would definitely stay again.

The breakfast was much better than I expected with plenty of choice. All of the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. The location is very convenient to Piccadilly train station and metro (5min walk).

Maybe a safe in the bedroom.

Just right for our needs

Location was excellent, very close to the railway station. Everywhere clean and comfotable.

There was nowhere to put anything, e.g. a glass, if sleeping on the side of the bed near the window.

Enjoyed our overnight stay for a concert at Coop Live arena. Would definitely book again.

Rooms very clean, good shower in modern little en-suite, kettle with tea and coffee available, flat screen tv and hairdryer provided. The bed was very comfortable and, although no wardrobe, there was adequate concealed hanging facilities for a short stay. A decent continental breakfast was provided.

Very good, definitely recommend

Excellent location to Piccadilly Station, hotel was spotlessly clean everywhere. The room was lovely and was just what was needed for our one night stay. The bathroom was excellent the only bug bear was the pressure in the shower was a bit lacking but it still did the job. Continental breakfast was just fine as boiled eggs and toast were included and the coffee was excellent. We are already booked to stay again in July and I’m sure we will be back again in the future

It was just a handy place to stay for train station ,it was comfortable bed and staff were really nice .

Only thing that I found was thd trams woke me up very early and it was constant after that ,I do also understand that on the main road so expect a bit of noise so apart from that was a good stay .

Staff were excellent at all times, friendly and welcoming with alot of local knowledge to help us out. The rooms and whole of the hotel were extremely clean and sparkling with a lovely lounge for drinks and a rest.

There was absolutely nothing to dislike at this hotel it was excellent, would have liked the option of a cooked breakfast but not an issue as plenty of places in walking distance to get a breakfast if the continental style isn't your choice tho it did look really good when we passed through.

Comfortable modern hotel conveniently situated near Piccadilly station.

I didn't spend much time in the hotel. As I travelled by train the location close to the station was ideal. Tea and coffee were provided in the room. I liked the position of the make-up/shaving mirror which was on a swivel bracket so it could be used close up and in multiple positions.

No extra bedding supplied. There was only a very thin duvet and I was cold. As I just couldn't get warm I doubled the quilt over me, luckily I was alone or this wouldn't have been possible. I didn't have breakfast as it was only served until 10 am and after a late night that is too early for me. People have late nights in the week too, some guests are there for leisure not work.

Good Location but could be better

Close to local transport and all amenities. Bed was very comfortable and room was a decent size

We were given a disabled room, so felt a little weird to take a room that someone who may have needed it more. When we arrived the reception area had an eggy smell which wasn't pleasent
