Manchester Airport Marriott Hotel

I attended a conference recently in the hotel itself. The room and the facilities were of a high standard. The room is good as were the acoustics. I also had the opportunity to use the well positioned Starbucks in the reception area. This of course is busy with people holding meetings with others who have traveled into Manchester. However it doesn’t feel overwhelming. Certainly a very good location.

We only stayed four hours but it was relatively easy to find! The staff were quite cordial, pleasant, helpful ,polite and prompt with the Wake up call. We did not eat there due to our time constraints they called for our taxi gave us a number the taxi arrived, the driver called out our number and that was it within minutes, five to be precise we were at the airport. The parking for the Marriott hotel is not at the hotel! It is at the skypark which is a few miles away! Google maps had us turn in at a gated building before it, this had a bell you had to press but they were polite and informed us that it was the next building on!

Always pop in for a coffee here on my way to the airport. My favourite little hideaway from the stress for half an hour. Has an excellent coffee shop / restaurant and amazingly kind staff. Might drive up there tomorrow actually, now I come to think of it. Just for a cake 🎂

Excellent staff and very nice short stay. The only issue for us was travel costs; there is no Airport Shuttle service. They do have an arrangement with a local taxi company which reduces the cost of a trip to the airport to £7 instead of the usual £9 but this needs to be factored into the room cost.
The San Carlo restaurant which can be reached easily indoors along a corridor serves very good Italian food, in very comfortable surroundings.
A good tip is to use the room service option for breakfast. Breakfast is delivered to your room at your chosen time which serves as both an alarm call to make sure you don't oversleep when there is a plane to catch, and saves the long trek to the restaurant and waiting to be served there. All for a modest 'tray charge' which we didn't even notice on the bill!

Lovely reception staff great food. Rooms are clean stylish and comfy. Staff on bar were good but we had a long waiting time to get drinks, perhaps need a few more staff on. I had a glass of malbec, it was nice but the £12+ price tag for a large glass was excessive. I should have checked the wine list I know, but it would have been helpful for the staff to point that out.

Went for a spa day for two and included one massage. Very good price and enjoyed the relaxing day in the large swimming pool, sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi.

The hotel is a nice place to stay. The room was very nice and the food absolutely amazing. The staff are very friendly and always happy to help.

Visited for a training course in the rosewood room. Although it took a while to find, the room was pleasant and functional. Lunch was great.

Spa treatment was good and spa staff were nice but it was hard to find and reception staff weren't very helpful. Also we thought the facilities were exclusive to the spa guests only but it was shared with hotel guests and had lots of children around doing swimming lessons.. not what I expected a spa day to be.
