Very pleased with my stay!

“Very pleased with my stay” - is what Lucy C from Sheffield wrote following her stay with us at our city centre hotel in Manchester....

Reviewed 29 January 2012

I booked the Liberty Suite for myself and my husband over a weekend in manchester. The room was large and had a great street view of Chinatown (nice big windows so didn't feel hemmed in). Good attention to detail and all the facilities you need for self catering. The shower room was also a good size with a nice big rain shower. There was a massive TV at the end of our bed so we could be ultra lazy!! I chose the Liberty room because of the dining table which made a difference if you want to dine in.
 

The Mac computer was a really good extra.
 

The location was great, very close to the city centre - about 10min walk from Picadilly station. The grab and go breakfast is at reception and you can grab & take it back to your room!
 

I forgot to take my earplugs with me but actually there wasn't much noise at all!

The only slight gripes I had was the room took a while to heat up and being january I did feel a bit cold when I first arrived - it took a good 2 hours before it felt warm. It would have been nice to have a heated towel rail in the bathroom, & lighting suitable for applying make up (!!). But really these are minor gripes and didn't affect my stay.

Overall I would say if you want luxury accommodation in manchester and you like the freedom of self catering this is a good value option. I would stay here again.

 

Room Tip: room 207 is a corner street view room with lots of windows so good view.

"A great way to combine culture, exercise and fresh air for all the family." The People

We're running our Treasure Hunt again this week and the prize is a night on us in Roomzzz Leeds City... Why is this a good prize? Sunsetcat had this to say about a recent trip to our Leeds city centre hotel:-

 

“Excellent accommodation near the train station and city centre.”

Reviewed 17 December 2011

The hotel is very conveniently located just a short walk away from the train station. Staff were friendly and helpful. For instance, I requested extra pillows for the room, and these were brought up before bedtime. I phoned reception to ask about rebooting the Mac in the room, and was given good advice on how to do that. The room itself comes with good facilities. Free wifi is always great. And my boyfriend and I were particularly taken by the lovely underfloor heating in the bathroom! The little kitchen was handy, as we got some ready meals from Marks & Spenser's at the station - again, only a few minutes walk away - and heated up those for dinner when we didn't feel like eating out. There are also plenty of nearby restaurants to eat at, if you don't want to prepare food for yourself.

There was enough closet space for an overnight stay, and also a little in-room safe. The room faced to the rear of the building, and was very quiet with little noise, despite over stay being on the weekend. The bed was very comfortable. If there was one thing I wasn't so keen on, the air conditioning didn't warm the room up as well as I'd have liked. But that aside, we had a very pleasant stay. I would certainly be happy to return, and would also recommend the hotel to friends. 

We think that says it all... keep reading our blog this week for more clues to the treasure!

Don't forget to book your stay for Valentine's!

Valentine's Day... This is what Wikipedia has to say...

Saint Valentine's Day, commonly shortened to Valentine's Day, is an annual commemoration held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions. The day is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Saint Valentine, and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. It was deleted from the General Roman Calendar of saints in 1969 by Pope Paul VI. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as "valentines"). The day first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

Modern Valentine's Day symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards.

WE say... book a fabulous stay @Roomzzz! Our beautiful luxurious pads are the perfect place to stay in Central Manchester or over the penines we have hotels in Leeds City Centre and Headingley to choose from! Book online or give us a call on 0844 499 4888!

"Blue Cross Sale"

Reviewed 11 December 2011

This is the second time that I have stayed in Roomzzz and can't say how fantastic it is. I received an email from Roomzzz from being a loyalty member about being a blue cross sale if booked today. This was ideal for a friends get together in December and I paid 29.50 for the room.

The room was clean as usual and I had forgotten that the bed was extremely comfortable. The shower is absolutely immense!!!

I would love to stay here again and might even treat myself to a bigger room just so I can compare the two.

I would recommend this to anyone and the friendly nature of the staff is brilliant. 

Perfect... don't forget if you want to get the best deals at Roomzzz you need to join our Royalty Club too...

"Very Relaxing"

Reviewed 6 January 2012 

 

We arrived for a stay of one night only, and after all the busyness of Christmas we wanted simply to relax and go shopping. In the end we stayed in the room drank loads of champagne and didn't go anywhere, and that was all down to the quality of the room, the decor, the flexibility of having a well equipped kitchen and the general ambience the surroundings created We have stayed here around 6 times and on every occasion we have been more than satisfied, the receptionist was very helpful, as the staff at Roomzzz always are. We will be going back again soon.

Last day to take advantage of our Jan sale!

Girls' weekend? Roomzzz is perfect...

TAFSAFHEF from Lincs had this to say about our fabulous city centre hotel in Manchester!

"Great Stay"

Reviewed 9 December 2011

Stayed in the Penthouse Suite last week-end for a girly wk-end (there were 4 of us)
We had a great time.
On entering (by double doors) we were pleasantly surprised by the lay out. The living area had 2 sofas and 2 chairs and a large flat screen TV on the wall.The kitchen was also part of this area with adequate facilities.
The bathroom led off on one side with a double ended jacuzzi bath with TV inset in the wall. Great rain head power shower and lots of white fluffy towels and toiletries.
There was a spiral staircase that led up to a mezzanine area with 2 single beds and another TV!
The main bedroom also led off from the living area (my only complaint would be that this was also open plan so no door separating the bedroom)
The bed was a large kingsize - with a modern 4 poster surrounding it and there was also a small sofa bed next to it.
Once again another TV an ipod dock and a computer.
There was also a separate toilet and wash basin.
The sky lights had remote controlled blinds next to the bed and in the living area.
Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again.
