Hilton Manchester Deansgate (Manchester)

During the half term week we were lucky enough to get away as a family for a few days thanks to our good old Tesco Clubcard vouchers. I shop (a lot!) using my Tesco credit card, collecting points as I go. We save these points to use for meals out and hotel stays. Luxuries we wouldn't usually be able to afford with five of us. So this holiday we visited Manchester. Why Manchester?! I hear you cry - the answer.... the kids saw the hotel on an episode of the Apprentice last year and thought it looked 'cool'!! One thing we have discovered about Hilton hotels is their 'Executive' rooms. These are smart rooms designed for, you guessed it, executives! The bonus of ...  Read the complete review

This review previously published on Tripadvisor.com Stayed here on business in Nov 06. Initial impressions were that the building is very smart - it's a huge landmark in Manchester, and in the modern glass and steel style.

We were allocated a room on the 14th floor which was south facing. The views were lovely, we could ...  Read the complete review

The Hilton Deansgate (http://www.hilton.co.uk/manchesterdeansgate) hotel occupies the bottom 23 floors of what is easily the tallest building in Manchester. Located in the city centre, the 47 storey glass clad building is very impressive and can be seen from miles away: I lived in Leigh 14 miles away and could see (on a smog free day) the building towering over the city. I booked our one night stay through the Hilton's own website and found this to be quick and easy. Being 'budget conscious' (in other words stingy) I used their booking system to identify a cheap day and booked a Queen size with breakfast. If you are flexible on your dates you can make a real saving, and ...  Read the complete review
