Off down to match on Boxing day with the bairn, wife doing some shopping ,looking for a mid range hotel to stay over in. Any help would be much appreciated. Don't want to end up out of town.
Last time I stopped over in Manchester, the hotel I was we were in was like a bloody gay convention..
You have left it a bit late for Boxing day, mind. The Macdonald Manchester hotel, looks alright. It's 4* and a very good location for shopping. Probably get it for about £100 a night, which is probably about as good as you can expect for that night. https://www.skiddle.com/hotels/Manchester/Macdonald-Manchester-Hotel-amp-Spa/100312/#contentjump
I stayed here when I went to see Peter Gabriel at the Arena a couple of years ago All re-furbished too and great views if you are at the top.. http://www.premierinn.com/gb/en/hot...er/manchester/manchester-city-piccadilly.html
Probably the creosote brigade for Tel's shed convention night nearby.. Always a hoot Iv'e heard especially if you own one of the bigger sheds and get top table.. Tongue and groove and all that stuff by all accounts..
Just stay in the Britannia it's a ****ing embarrassment of a hotel but it's cheap and it's clean. Your day of misery will be compounded by the breakfast offered in the morning.
Premier inn just off deansgate. I live in rossendale 20 miles away and stay there whenever we go down. Was there last week. Great rooms
Just had an e-mail listing from Groupon they have a deal at the Trafford Hall Hotel (don't know what it's like) for 1 night for 2 £49 b&b or £89 with dinner, and 2 nights for £59 b&b and £99 with dinner (first night only).
Stay at Sashas in Picadilly it's crawling with brass, if you don't care about crusty bedsheets and getting full blown AIDS in your soup.
