“Don’t hesitate – book!”

“Don’t hesitate – book!” – I don’t think we could put it better ourselves! It’s what clmswallow wrote about our Manchester city centre hotel on Tripadvisor…
5 of 5 stars 
Reviewed 13 February 2012
I travel to Manchester 4-5 times a year for work and I will always stay at Roomzzz and not bother looking at other accommodation options because it meets all of my requirements – central, secure parking very nearby, value for money and great customer service provided by the lovely reception staff.

Because work are usually paying I tend to book the cheapest rooms but they are by no means basic. I don’t know of any other hotel where you can stay in such luxurious surroundings at such a low price.

This weekend however I was in Manchester with my boyfriend so we booked The Maxima Suite. If you’re thinking about treating a loved one to a romantic weekend away or just like a bit of extra space then this is the room for you.

Down stairs you’ll find:

A kitchen area complete with dish washer, cutlery, hob, pans, plates – basically everything you would need if you were planning to cook and eat in. The hotel have a pantry in reception so you can buy pizzas, curry sauces, soft drinks etc
A large living space with a couple of sofa’s, a desk, iMac, iPod docking station and a large flat screen TV mounted on the wall
A down stairs bathroom with a rain fall shower and a decent sized bath tub with a TV built into the wall (a great touch!)

And then up a spiral staircase you’ll find your bedroom:

A huge bed
Another toilet so you don’t have to navigate the stairs at night
And a third TV

The rooms at Roomzzz are modern, light and clean.

The grab and go breakfast is great – coffee’s, juices, fruit and freshly baked pastries.

My only small gripe is the outside noise but that comes with staying at any City centre hotel. My boyfriend slept through it but the odd siren or loud groups of people have disturbed my sleep when staying here but not enough for me not to book again but I think it’s something the light sleepers amongst you may want to know about.

Make a reservation, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

This week our Treasure Hunt will lead the winner to Manchester so we’ve been looking at what they could spend their time doing when they stay in our city centre hotel!
There are many things you can do… many obvious things like shopping, feasting, having a go on the eye… a trip to the museum or the art gallery but perhaps the most unusual thing you can do is to take a tunnel tour! Manchester has a mysterious world which goes on beneath the pavements, a network of rivers and canals… tunnels remaining from the second world war and even an atomic bunker from the 1950s! Don’t worry about getting lost as these tours are guided and you can book a place and find out more here http://www.newmanchesterwalks.com
This tour would provide a stark contrast to the luxury and comfort of your room at Roomzzz! You can join the Treasure Hunt…
Clue No 1
How many grams of flour are there in our pancake recipe?
Follow us for the rest of the week to gather the clues and find the treasure!  Look through our blog and website and it will lead you to the prize… post your answer on our Facebook pages for Leeds or Manchester along with the phrase…”I am a Roomzzz Treasure Hunter and my answer is….” by 3pm on Friday and all the right answers will be placed into a pot, the lucky winner will be drawn at random!

Pancake anybody?

Posted on: by rejuvenate No Comments
Yummmm! Today we are really glad that all our the rooms in our city centre accommodation and our hotel in Manchester have kitchens because we’ll be making good use of them today!
Pancakes really are the best food – sweet or savoury they are sure to delight… everyone has an opinion on the best options for fillings! The traditional way is just a spoonful of sugar and a squeeze of lemon juice… or how about some maple syrup?
So to make the perfect pancake you need:-
  • 10g/4oz plain flour, sifted
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 200ml/7fl oz milk mixed with 75ml/3fl oz water
  • 50g/2oz butter
Sift the flour and salt into a bowl and make a well in the flour, break the eggs into well and then whisk away, gradually add the milk and water – keep whisking.
Melt the butter into the pan and get the pan really hot and drop in a ladle of the mixture- it should only take a minute and then you get to flip it! The second side cooks faster and then you have a wonderful pancake ready to take your favourite filling!
So Happy Pancake Day from Roomzzzz – get flipping!

Fffffffriday….

This week our Friday Treasure Hunt is all about Leeds – so we’ve been hunting out more reasons for you to take part, win the prize and stay in our fabulous city centre accommodation in Leeds!
 
Our pick of the choices this week is the Silver 70s exhibition at Leeds City Museum until the 22nd April – the exhibition provides a walk through the decade by means of a 1970s house… so you wander through the kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedroom, celebrating the glittering decade showing fashion, music, furniture and what we would have played with and watched on TV… brilliant! They even have a Rayleigh Chopper bike and The Wombles…!
 
You can go and see just how the 70s looked and felt for real and then come back and stay at Roomzzz Leeds City in the lap of modern luxury!

Leeds City Roomzzz is a favourite…

 Our accommodation in Leeds City Centre is a bit hit for a night out!
“1 night stay”
5 of 5 starsReviewed 16 January 2012
Stayed here for one night with a friend in November 2011 as we wanted a night out in Leeds. Staff was very friendly and helpful and the location of the hotel was great, it was 15 mins walk to the city centre and 2mins in a taxi which was very cheap! We even got to stay an exta 2 hours in the morning for £10.00 which I thought was ideal with a hangover! Rooms are very modern, spacious, clean and tidy. Could not fault this aparthotel at all! :)
