Britannia Sachas Hotel
Very good location, staff. Had a windowless room and it was cold, actually very cold, I have had such rooms at Sachas before and been lovely and toasty. The Dimplex rad was totally inadequate.

Crowne Plaza Hotel Manchester City Centre by IHG
We enjoyed our stay at the Crowne Plaza. Good location with access to cafes and restaurants nearby. We enjoyed the Club Lounge for a quick bite in and coffee in the morning. The room was clean, but some of the furniture had significant staining and should be cleaned or removed.
