Great hotel, 5 mins walk from Train Station, 10/15 min walk to Terminal 2 Room modern, a little small but more than adequate for an overnight stay! Good coffee machine in room

Treehouse Hotel Manchester
Huge room (studio suite), amazing design and great location. Very clean, and great price. Only minor thing was the lights in living room half didn’t work when I reported it no one came to fix it. I would still definitely recommend and will be back.

Clayton Hotel, Manchester Airport
Great stay as usual, asked for a ground floor room and that’s what we got. Food and service are spot on and the beds are sooo comfortable. Everywhere is spotless and clean. The airport shuttle next morning over to the airport was seamless. Will definitely stay here again next trip.
