Great location and the building has a real feel and character to it. Service also very good, both in the bar and reception. Room was comfortable but perhaps a little dated. Breakfast was disappointing. It's not that it was bad at all, it's just with the setting and service it didn't quite feel as good as it should have been.
Expected an experience on par with that of L'Enclume, but the standards fell far short. Food was of course excellent, but service and a few kitchen mistakes let us down. Therefore it was definitely a disappointment and an expensive experience.
Only went for afternoon tea. Menu had changed drastically since last year so we didn't stay. Service was ok and they tried to find alternative arrangements which was appreciated
Smart contemporary hotel with a rich history in the heart of manchester
Lovely views with huge windows, staff great, plenty of choice for breakfast especially after your Xmas party
Fabulous old fashioned exterior and interior. Expensive but a nice surprise for a really special person.
Classic Victorian building, friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyable visit. I'm sure I will be able to give it the full 5 and excellent when the refurbishment is complete.
Fantastic place, great staff and also the chance of bumping into a celebrity or two.
A well furnish,clean hotel.Staff are friendly and helpful.Good location with stone throwing distance to shopping area.
Wonderful hotel in easy walking distance of the city centre. Beautiful rooms, well appointed and clean. The restaurants and bars are great. Highly recommend afternoon tea where they have a vegan menu.
Had a fantastic time, but the food was kinda a let down
Great hotel with professional service & fantastic facilities, restaurants, spa etc. Wonderful access to Manchester in the heart of the city. Rooms are getting a little tired but are very quiet & comfortable with all the amenities.
Didn't stay overnight but the function room an service were excellent!
Great building friendly staff. Good venue for the meeting
V/ good hotel, just across the street from the MCCC. would record to anyone attending any event there
Impressive entrance giving onto a suitably theatrical cocktail bar. A promise of exciting things to come. Perched on high stools you can escape a little from the hurly burly and enjoy the house signature cocktails which are intriguing and delicious. But the restaurant didn't look inviting. It has the blandness of an upmarket hotel breakfast room. Anonymous, lacking character - reinforced by bits of unimaginatively positioned bits of greenery. A far cry from the promise and expectation of what should be a unique and tasteful space - given its heritage and historical narrative. A lost opportunity. More Coronation Street back yard than magical secret garden. Don't think Mr. Cooper would recognise the place...
Great hotel, in the heart of Manchester. Brilliant place to stay
Then visit was average at best. The afternoon tea order was wrong and staff weren't very attentive and we kept having to stop staff as they passed us to bring the refreshments
Great location, good hotel only to finish renovating the rest of the rooms, the best breakfast I have eaten in hotels in Europe, very high level service.
Beautifully maintained hotel, the food was excellent
The service is invariably slow and the prices are extortionate
After an incredible day spa experience last year, we had the chance to actually stay at The Midland and thought our experience was bound to be repeated. Sadly this was not to be. The rooms are incredibly dated and ours had clearly suffered More
Great service in a lovely setting with delicious food.
Very lovely hotel, would book again. Got hugely lost with the Sat Nav as it took us to a different part of the hotel, due to roadworks it wasn't easy getting to the place we needed to be and the oneway roads. Make sure for disabled parking your sat nav takes you to the road that is opposite the Central Library.
Attended an event here recently. Stunning venue and the event went very smoothly.
Brunch menu savoury and tasty. Staff are welcoming, happy and excellent quality.
Iconic building in Manchester full of history.
Afternoon tea is a good choice too..
5*
Brilliant old style hotel. Makes me.wish I wore a top hat and a monocle.
Currently staying here for 3 nights,room,service and staff are amazing.From the reception staff,the doorman,house keeping staff and the breakfast team,Thank you for ensuring we have had the a great time.Definately will return and will recommend to friends and family.If you are coming to Manchester,then this is the place to stay.
Nice hotel in a very convenient location but could benefit from some renovation
Took my wife for Afternoon tea for her birthday as a surprise, we had a wonderful time. The staff
Very posh looking. Rooms not much better than premier inn
What a wonderful hotel. I stayed here after a party, also here. Comfy bed. Black out curtains. Nice and quiet.
The food at the party was amazing. Presented beautifully. Cooked to perfection. I would recommend The Midland to anyone wanting to stay in Manchester.
Beautiful hotel but not as special a stay as I had expected & hoped for. Reception staff were cool & not welcomingly friendly. Breakfast was fab & staff were lovely & pleasant
I have used Living Social for a very long time and use it particularly for having my hair cut. This time decided to go to Joseph Elliot in the Midland Hotel Manchester, being a reputable salon.
What a disaster, my hair was cut so short .There are long and short bits, that don't blend in at all, the crown is too short.
My husband was shocked and all I've done is cry. I felt that the girl was an apprentice, had no idea how to cut hair at all. To cut natural curly hair fringe dry!!!!!!
So if your using Living Social I would go to another salon.
Never again!!!!!!
Lovely, relaxing atmosphere for coffee and cake with friends.
The staff nice comfortable bed hot water with covid 19 the staff did a great job I will be going again. Thank you all the staff
Very nice hotel, shame the gym shuts quite early as I would like to of used it during my stay, but sadly as I was at a conference both days until 9pm I didn't get the chance.
Others complained about the air con not working, I found mine to always be on freezing even when it was turned up or even turned off (often turned itself back on in the middle of the night).
The breakfast was fantastic however and all the staff were great both in the bar and around the hotel itself.
Very nice place. Good service and fair prices. Also has a lovely afternoon tea.
The location was fabulous - close to lots of local bars and restaurants . The room was comfortable and the service was very friendly and welcoming
Went for mt birthday as a spa package hotel .room was lovely bed really comfy had nice sleep. The spa package ...the pool was too cold...steam room was ok and relaxing room great. I booked full body massage which was well worth it. Lunch was included in package wasnt a great choice for vegetarians. So just the cold pool and lunch was a downside over than that massage 5 star and room . Ow and parking
Plenty of meeting rooms, good standards, great food
The Octagon Lounge just isn't what it was. Gone is the poetry, the superb lounge pianist, and the magnificent Moroccan lantern. Now it's an enlarged cocktail bar and walls painted a Llewellen-Bowen shade of blue. Still a peaceful retreat for an evening drink, but nothing special. Sad, like an old friend having a midlife crisis.
Good service makes you feel at home relaxed and the treatment so much chilled
Had a roast dinner which was very tasty but the service was a bit slow. Ordinarily this would probably be absolutely fine but we were there on a spa lunch and wanted as much time in the spa as possible.
I've only visited this place through work, attending seminars etc. The location is excellent for both train and road (parking is plentiful), and the newly refurbished square at the front of the hotel has good metro link connections too. Plenty of chain coffee shops nearby too. Catering has always been great and the aircon has kept the hottest days manageable.
Great hotel, perfect service. Clean and tidy rooms.
Very luxurious rooms and excellent breakfast. Fantastic central location. Recommended.
Beautiful hotel, very upscale. Room was sizeable and pricing was as expected for the experience. The aircon in our room was in fault when we got there, the lobby reception explained the reset, however didn't get very cold in the room. I parked at the hotel (30 GBP) and it took about 40 mins for a valet to retrieve the vehicle in the morning.
Beautiful hotel, service at the top, pool and spa super !!
Attended a conference herer, lots of rooms and plenty of space. All very clean and well organised. Food provided was varied and very good.
A beautiful, tranquil hotel close to everything in the center
The rooms are once beautiful and the breakfast is fun in the hotel. The receptionist Oana gave her five stars on her screen and she received us in a very elegant way.
Central for shopping in Manchester. Rooms are a bit dated. The beds moved too easily in the accessible room, especially when trying to get onto the bed.
Spa is fantastic on some days and not so good on others depending on the staff. On our last visit the relaxation area was not cleaned very often so water jugs were empty, dirty glasses left on the floor and sides. A couple shut themselves in one of the side rooms excluding others from using it and the hot tub was cold. Just not a great 3rd experience at all.
Very comfortable hotel, conveniently located for central Manchester. Excellent food and exceptionally helpful and approachable staff no matter the hour of the day.
Had afternoon tea, not the best, fatty finger sandwiches, too many cakes
Classic service and good quality event hosting. Professional service
Great size room for the event, nicely decorated. Good Buffet and drinks reasonably priced. Had a good time and the hours that the room was available for was excellent.
Well located. Room was ok, there are certainly nicer in the house.
Good service and great place to host an upmarket event
Visited the tea room at the midland with my 3 daughters to finish off a hen do weekend for my youngest.
We looked at various venues before deciding to book here as we wanted something special.we were not disappointed !!!!
From walking in we were made to feel very welcome and valued as a customer.
The setting is perfect and just felt like going back in time.The table was set beautifully and the vases of fresh flowers were a lovely touch.
ZDRAVKO was our waiter and looked after us very well.he told us all about the different loose leaf teas and recommended a few.he then told us what every sandwich and cake was filled with.he also checked about allergies.
Although it was busy he constantly checked on us without being intrusive.
The setting & the food / drinks were excellent and was made all the more special by the service we received from zdravko he is a credit to the hotel.
Well done & thank you ALL.x
A grand old establishment hotel, still doing OK. Needs to keep its game raised to compete with The Principal and Lowry.
Visited for a conference, exce lent facilities, but quite expensive. Did not stay there.
Quality hotel in central location. Excellent meals in a variety of eateries.
Very nice place and excellent location. Loverly decor and feel. Good food and rooms very clean.
