Generally I am fan of the Ibis hotel chain. However, I think its fair to say that this particular Ibis has seen better days. Rooms are looking a little tired and due to its location on the very busy Portland Street it experiences quite a lot of road traffic noise, not ideal if you are a light sleeper. I’m not sure if I was particularly unlucky on this night, but several ambulances or police sirens woke me up and I noticed the glazing wasn’t the best in terms of sound insulation. On the plus side the room was clean and the bed, as usual, very comfortable. Breakfasts are also dependable, serving a quality continental breakfast of fresh fruits, croissants, yoghurt, continental meats and cheeses, toast and nutella, win! There is also free Wi-Fi in the rooms and, as always, the staff were excellent. A decent, good value hotel if you are looking for a central location in Manchester.

Das Ibis Centre in der Portland Street hat ein Plus: die zentrale Lage. Der Rest war leider enttäuschend. Mein Zimmer 318 war mit einem komplett verdreckten Bodenteppich wirklich gruselig. Kein Safe. Keine Bar. Keine Ablage für den Koffer. Das WLAN kostenfrei aber sehr langsam. Der Preis war verträglich.

For one night, this hotel was pretty decent for the price. Our room was clean, specious and the bathroom was designed in a circular shape to save space. The hallway had a funky smell which bothered me. Wi-fi was not free when we visited.(I think they are trying to change this policy) Otherwise I’d recommended this budget place for a short stay.

Room was nice and clean, good location a short walk from Picadilly Gardens. However, service is not that good. I called the hotel in advance asking if it was okay to have a package sent there. No problem I was told. I was surprised when I arrived that there was no package waiting for me as it should arrive a couple of days before me(had to make sure it was there when I arrived as I only stayed at the hotel for two days) When I checked with the company that sent the package it turns out the hotel rejected my package and that it was sent back to them. As a result I didn’t get it, and now have to pay extra to have it shipped to Norway + 25% taxes of the value. A price higher than one night stay. I asked the staff and they confirmed it was sent back, and that they were sorry. Thats all! So much for they 15 min satisfaction guarantee. Will def not stay there again. After 10+ times in Mcr where I have things shipped to my hotel this is the first time it has happened.

Quite a cheap hotel for the quality of room and facilities you will get here. Food isn’t included in the price and there isn’t easy car-parking access but the cleanliness is sublime and the rooms are big enough and filled with modern conveniences to have a comfortable night here. Also located right in the heart of the centre meaning its within only a couple of minutes of shopping/travel links and attractions.

The ibis hotel in manchester is quality, and cheap. i think for the price you pay(around £40 a night) you cant ask for any more. the rooms are nice and tidy, theres a flat screen tv, a really nice bathroom with shower, great storage space for clothes, and obviously tea making facilities :) the staff are also very friendly and helpful in the hotel.

Nice hotel one of many in the chain. Located on Portland street, in the town centre. Reasonable rates for a large size room, fab huge bathroom. Nice clean double bed, tv, mini bar, AC, complimentary coffee/tea. I’m sure there was internet access int eh room too. Breakfast was not included on the price through. prices for that are best asked on arrival. Nice bar and restaruant downstirs which is open most hours. They say they have parking but not sure were!!!
