Very pleasant surprise!

We are very proud of our city centre hotel in Manchester and it makes us swell up even more when we get lovely reviews – like this one below from Brollyman…
5 of 5 starsReviewed 5 March 2012
This was a very pleasant surprise.

It had all the attributes of a good hotel (safe reception area, friendly staff, good location) with the added advantage of the ability to cook in the room. It suited me as a lone traveller down to the ground and I think it would be even better for – say – a lone female traveller not wanting to venture around the City Centre in the evening alone.

Furthermore, I stayed in a room right on the street and once the blinds were closed I had absolutely no problem with noise or disturbance.

The (free) WiFi reception was poor but having a Mac to play with sort of made up for that!

Looking forward to a return visit when I next have to stay.

 Check out this lovely review of our Manchester city centre hotel!

“Very Relaxing”

5 of 5 starsReviewed 6 January 2012 
 
We arrived for a stay of one night only, and after all the busyness of Christmas we wanted simply to relax and go shopping. In the end we stayed in the room drank loads of champagne and didn’t go anywhere, and that was all down to the quality of the room, the decor, the flexibility of having a well equipped kitchen and the general ambience the surroundings created We have stayed here around 6 times and on every occasion we have been more than satisfied, the receptionist was very helpful, as the staff at Roomzzz always are. We will be going back again soon.

"Perfect in Every Way!" – your words not ours!

Please check out the review below – thank you Mark Young – we’re glad you enjoyed your stay!
 

“Perfect in Every Way!”

Reviewed 14 November 2011 NEW

Just back from my first stay at Roomzzz Aparthotel, Manchester. It was fantastic!!
 
Car parking was very close by in the recommended car park and was discounted by the hotel. so was only £12 for an overnight.
 
On arrival we were met by a lovely receptionist, who was extremely helpful, telling us the best places to eat etc and she printed us out a map.
 
The room was brilliant!! I couldn’t believe the amount of facilities in the room. The bed was lovely and clean and comfortable. The kitchen area amazing, I couldn’t believe there was even a dishwasher in the room!! There was just nothing more you could want. The shower was great, with lovely unusual fittings in the bathroom. The TV and free computer were great too.
 
There was a grab and go breakfast, which was great…..pastries, fruit, tea and all kinds of coffee. Took some back to the room and had it there.
 
On checking out the receptionist asked us if we wanted to take any of the breakfast things with us, which was lovely (we didn’t take any!!)
 
All in all an absolutely perfect stay and would not hesitate in returning and would recommend to anyone!! Thank you so much Roomzzz!! x

Manchester Bee!

Posted on: No Comments



Yesterday we asked our Manchester Facebook fans, ‘which insect is connected to Manchester?’ Someone suggested the Museum Mummy! But no the symbol of Manchester is the bee!

The Manchester bee symbol was adopted during the industrial revolution, a revolution that Manchester was at the heart of. The bee denotes Mancunians hard work and graft during this era and Manchester being a hive of activity in the 19th century. A mosaic hive of bees is depicted on flooring in the Manchester Town Hall.

Bees are known are hard workers with a vital role to play in the ecosystem and the ability for humans and life forms to survive by pollinating crops. The allegorical link to bees relates that during this era, Manchester was a vital economic centre for Britain and many Mancunians were employed in a range of jobs in the city.

Although it is unverifiable, the idiom busy bee may have originated or at least been popularised as a result of Manchester’s adoption of the bee symbol.

The architecture of our Manchester Roomzzz is testament to this era, see photograph below!

We couldn’t have put it better ourselves!

As it’s a rainy Monday morning we thought we’d indulge ourselves again and read some of your lovely reviews. This one was posted on Trip Advisor on the 9th July by droenna from Chester:

“I’ve nothing to add other than I loved this place and would stay here again. Great location too. (next to Yang Sing, along from the Art Gallery, close to trams etc)

*Apple Mac with free internet access a plus.
*Pantry in foyer with ready meals and ice-cream and wine……..
