In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable city centre location — Just a 5-minute walk from The Palace Theatre and close to Piccadilly Gardens, Gay Village, and Canal Street.
  • Lively on-site entertainment — A downstairs bar with karaoke, darts, billiards, and live entertainment – guests often enjoy a night in without going far.
  • Clean and spacious rooms — Guests repeatedly note cleanliness and room size, with some rooms featuring canal views and king-size beds.
  • Friendly and efficient staff — Staff receive consistently high ratings for service and helpfulness.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Noise from the bar — Rooms above the bar on Princess Street can be noisy, especially during evening entertainment.
  • Dated feel — One guest noted the hotel felt old, and overall ratings for facilities and dining are lower than for rooms and staff.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 20:00, which may not suit all arrival times.
  • Basic amenities — Some describe it as a 'pub with rooms' – functional but not luxurious, with Wi-Fi only in public areas.
