Marriott Victoria And Albert

The restaurant was a treat in the evenings, and the green curry chicken became my favourite. It was so good I ordered it twice. Breakfast was another highlight: a generous buffet with lots of fresh, tasty, well-presented options, from eggs, sausages, omelettes and smoked salmon to fruit, salads, pastries, cereals, bread, juice, tea and coffee. We stayed at the Marriott Victoria & Albert Hotel in Manchester from 28/12/25 to 2/1/26. The room was spacious, spotless, and comfortable, with cookies, tea bags, coffee, and bottled water. Housekeeping serviced it daily and changed the towels regularly. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, always greeting us with a smile. On a rainy day, they even offered us umbrellas, a thoughtful touch. The location is excellent for major sights and public transport. From the airport, you can take a train to Manchester Piccadilly Station and then the free bus, Route 1 or 2, getting off near the Opera House. The hotel is only a short walk from there. A wonderful stay from start to finish, with comfort, convenience, and warm hospitality. We'd highly recommend it.

The breakfast was good, and I appreciated the Victoria & Albert Hotel's architecture and ideal location. But the technical facilities were disappointing. My room stayed cold throughout my four-night visit. I told reception several times, and although they promised to check, the heating was never fixed. It's a shame, since the building is lovely, but basic comfort like room temperature shouldn't be overlooked.

The hotel looks lovely, and the staff were kind and helpful, especially in the restaurant. Dinner was good, though breakfast was pretty basic. Our room wasn't fully soundproof, so we could hear people chatting and walking along the corridor. Parking at the hotel is limited, but they have an arrangement with nearby car parks where you can pay the same rate. We had a very good stay.

We got a great price by booking early, and the stay was very comfortable. The rooms were clean, the breakfast had plenty to choose from, and the staff were all pleasant and helpful. The location suited us perfectly. I'd book here again if we come back to Manchester, and would definitely recommend it.
