Copthorne Hotel Manchester Salford Quays
"The staff were very helpful and friendly - they made us feel welcome from the first moment we walked through the door. The hotel was clean and tidy and although we didn’t use the bar, it was very full when we were there…which suggests to me that it’s very popular. The breakfast was very good"

"Great position. Staff were helpful. We had2 rooms and a 3 generation family and it was a perfect ‘pit stop’ for all of us. Can’t fault for the money, quiet, easy car park that’s a reasonable price for 24 hours. We will use it again."
