Holiday Inn Express Manchester - Salford Quays, an IHG Hotel

The hotel is quite nice. Located near the canals. Good base for Old Trafford. About 20 minutes to downtown. You can eat well in The Quays (7 minutes walk). As for the hotel itself, the service was nice. The room was small and.. even clean (bathroom got Dove cosmetics). The price is adequate to the quality. There's a bit of a small selection for breakfast, but we always found something. I think I'll come back for United match.

The Holiday Inn Express is in walking distance from Old Trafford, the Imperial War Museum, the tram station, shopping mall and bars and restaurants including Nandos. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was beautiful, I would recommend the burgers and pizzas. I would recommend the Holiday Inn Express.

Have stayed here on 2 separate occasions for work.Staff on reception are exceptional, I could happily say they're on par with with some of the best hotels I've stayed at.The rooms, well.. They're standard Holiday Inn.Both times they've had showers that flooded and didn't drain well at all.The main problem I've had with this hotel is on the first occasion I had drunks trying to get into my room and banging on the door at 3am.Things happen, not the worst but the 2nd time I stayed here there were children running up and down the hallway playing knocky-door run and yelling seemingly as loud as they were capable of doing up until around midnight.When you're staying for work and trying to sleep, these just arent the occurrences you want happening.Staff we're apologetic, but I think this is just the quality of some of the people staying.Won't be risking a third time staying here.

So disappointed and annoyed with my stay here. I live 4.5hrs away from Manchester but had a meeting there first thing in the morning. I had a choice to stay at home and leave at 530am and turn up to the meeting feeling frazzled from the long drive or travel up the night before get a good nights sleep and get to the meeting fresh. That turned out to be a big mistake. I arrived at 11pm, went up to my room which was on the 1st floor, very small and grubby. But I was too tired to care. I went to sleep and was woken up around 520am, by the sound of something in the car park, I got up and there’s a lorry out the front with a guy loading it with around 10 industrial wheelie bins full of laundry. It went on for 45 mins. I didn’t get back to sleep. I went down to reception around 730 and told the reception staff, and his response was ‘unfortunately that’s how it is’! Totally unacceptable. On check out another staff member offered to cover my £7 parking fee but it’s not about the money. The number 1 priority for a business hotel should be an undisturbed good nights sleep so whoever had the idea to load up a lorry at that time needs to seriously review this!

Had a over night stay. Hotel was nice and clean. Didn't find the bed very comfy. Need a better selection of pillows. Parking is not free but u get a discount if u stay at the hotel which is fair enough because of the location. £7 24 hour parking which is reasonable. Views are nice, next to old Trafford stadium.
