Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the need to keep the curtains closed for privacy was a bit inconvenient. The location was perfect for exploring the city, being so close to Manchester Piccadilly Station, but the view onto an office block made it feel a bit exposed at times.
For £100 a night, I had to make do with a tiny room that had two twin beds together instead of a king, which was a bit inconvenient. However, the en suite shower was lovely and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location, facing Piccadilly train station, was perfect, being just one minute from Manchester Piccadilly Station and within easy walking distance to the center.
My stay at Motel One Piccadilly had its ups and downs. The room was clean and compact, with a good location and a nice window view. However, the lack of room cleaning, fresh bedding, and towels during our weekend stay was disappointing. The room rate dropped just before our visit, leaving us feeling like we overpaid. Despite these setbacks, the hotel shows promise with its friendly staff.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with very big king-sized beds and interesting views. The lifts are excellent. However, the rooms are not very big. The hotel's location is superb, providing convenience without typical city-center downsides. The staff is friendly and helpful. The dining experience is enjoyable with a variety of food options, though the price may seem a bit high. The facilities are well-presented and clean.
I spent a few nights at the hotel and overall, it was a decent stay. The rooms, while clean and quiet, were smaller than expected based on the online pictures. The service was good, especially the housekeeping. The location was very convenient, just across from Manchester Piccadilly Station. The dining experience had a good variety of options but lacked vegan choices. The price was reasonable for what was offered.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spotless with a very comfortable, very big king-sized bed, and the hotel is nice, clean, and super comfy. The location is absolutely spot on, just a 10-minute walk to the center with all the shops and so close to the Piccadilly station. The dining experience was lovely, especially the continental buffet starting at 6 am, great for early risers like me. However, I wish they offered more hot food options. Overall, fantastic value for money!
My stay at the hotel was really nice. The rooms were not huge but super clean, with a lovely shower and everything you need for a comfortable stay. However, they felt a bit small and Spartan. The location was fantastic, being near Piccadilly Station and close to the bars and restaurants in the city center. The dining experience, although a bit on the expensive side, provided a continental breakfast with a good variety of items. The service was friendly, and the facilities were top-notch.
My stay at the hotel was delightful overall. The rooms were perfect - the bed was lovely and comfy, with equally cozy pillows, and the bathroom was gorgeous.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were compact but comfortable, with a nice view overlooking Manchester, especially considering the price and location. However, there was a sharp chemical smell that was off-putting. The service, particularly housekeeping, was satisfactory. The location was amazing, right next to the train station and a few minutes from the city center. The dining options were decent but overpriced. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfy and clean, but a bit basic for what was advertised as a queen suite. The high cost of overnight parking was also a letdown.
