The Ascott

This place seems to get good reviews but I can’t think why. It’s not cheap, £95 for a single room with breakfast. The single room was pokey and you were greeted by laminated signs everywhere telling you what you couldn’t do e.g. no takeaway food to be consumed in the room, which were quite blunt. A “please” would have been nice. It’s obviously quite an old building but as a result the room door was hard to shut and the floor creaked but the bed creaked too. For breakfast you had the choice of cereal and/or toast. I don’t call that a proper hotel breakfast. I was disappointed. I’d expected more.

Lovely little place. Clean and comfy. Friendly staff. Much more peaceful than the chaos of a big chain. Would definitely recommend.

Very comfortable bed, I love the lovingly old fashioned décor. And the owner/receptionist was incredible friendly.

I always stay here when visiting Manchester ! It’s a comfortable , well appointed , tastefully decorated hotel. The breakfast is very satisfying with a great selection for all tastes. The owners are very pleasant and have been running this place for years with a consistent high standards . That’s why I always book here when in town. Don’t believe some bad reviews ! You won’t be disappointed ! Well done guys

The rooms were clean and staff were friendly. Rooms are nicely decorated with useful toiletries such as shampoo, shower gel and cotton buds. Hairdryer, kettle and tea and coffee was available in room which was also useful. The room was cosy and bed was comfortable however we were in a room with a door that led to another, the host did show us the room and informed us about this however we were able to hear the people staying next door quite easily due to this as it sounds like their bathroom was the other side of the door/wall. Parking is available however it can be difficult to find an actual space if arriving late. Nonetheless the stay was good and was definitely budget friendly, would recommend .

Very helpful on arrival. As I needed a taxi.Confused information re breakfast and check out time. Pre arrival info said basic breakfast included and checkout time of 11am. On arrival breakfast not included and told checkout 10am. Then in room info said check out10.30am

Lovely little hotel, excellent value and ideal location for getting the tram into Manchester. Would definitely stay again.

My Partner and I had an excellent 3 night stay here. Such a great little hotel. Beautifully decorated keeping its historic element. Our room was fantastic and such a lovely bed . We will be back for sure

Quick stay over Friendly, quick one night stay. No breakfast required so couldn't comment on that. Plenty of hot water and all facilities in room.
