    Great building, friendly staff and superb rooms

    • Locke Studio
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The price was high, and I'm not sure if this was due to the number of people staying or that an event was being held in some of the rooms on the basement floors, or that it's an expensive hotel in general. I was staying mid-January where I'd expect prices to be cheaper.

    It's a great old building located not too far from the Piccadilly Train station (10 minute walk). It's set back from the road and feels a little out of place (which is good). The room I booked was superb, huge, very comfortable and really clean. The same could be said for the rather large en-suite bathroom. The staff at check-in were good, though there was a small queue and I had to wait for a few minutes. The check-in area is part of the bar area. Plenty of facilities, a warren of rooms on the floor and subfloor levels.

    My door was next to the door that lead to the stairs/lift, so just the noise there. Otherwise, no complaints.

    Super handy Spot, location is good and easy to get around. Knew the room Had a kitchen, but didn't expect to walk into a full on apartment. Really good size, especially for the value. Was clean and cosy. Loved the vibe/decor of the place. Would highly recommend and definitely somewhere I would return to whenever I go back to Manchester.

    Great stay at Whitworth Locke

    • One Bedroom Suite - Duplex
    • Stayed 2 nights

    I would have liked to have some sort of blinds or voile on the main living area windows as we felt quite exposed to the office windows directly opposite ours. Not having the toilet facilities on same floor as bedroom was a bit inconvenient.

    The whole apartment was extremely clean. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. The toiletries were lovely. Great location - chosen for its closeness to the Palace Theater. Although we didn't use it - we thought the workspace/meet up areas on the ground floor was a great facility for those that needed it.

    The apartment was gorgeous and so spacious. My friend and I were keen to go out dancing on Canal Street and we literally couldnt have gotten any closer than staying here. Very close to the train station, and walkable distance to all the key places we wanted to visit. The room was super clean, the communal areas were gorgeous, felt like a very luxurious experience all round.

    Fantastic first stay at Whitworth Locke! All staff are amazingly friendly and helpful and couldn't do enough for us. A lovely touch provided to celebrate our anniversary also. Room was spacious, extremely clean with everything you could possibly need. Bed was comfy, shower was powerful and warm. Room location was very quiet. Will certainly look to stay again.

    The literal only thing is that all the lighting on the mirrors is warm and only lit on one side so it wasn't great for doing my make up but it didn't affect my stay in any way.

    Really gorgeous hotel with friendly and helpful staff, lovely facilities and an amazing location. Amazing value for money. Will definitely stay here again when we return to Manchester. Thanks for such a comfortable stay!

    Windows are light but draughty with no voile at the windows in the morning (full view of everyone). It was cold at night (Feb), the duvet was very thin, extra blankets would be handy, the pillows & mattress were a bit hard & uncomfortable. Not the best quality! The rooms are starting to look a bit shabby already, paint in the bathroom is streaky, no fan either, and floor tiles need grouting properly. Only 2 coffee/tea bags provided, and small milk. Restaurant downstairs is overpriced.

    Great location, studio apartments are a great concept with a lovely shower & facilities. Cafe is lovely for breakfast and the bar area is cool! Assistance from Reception was helpful & prompt.

    The only criticism I would have (and I'm being really picky here) is that there was no good lighting to do makeup. I really liked the low lighting which added to the stylish vibe in the room, but it made putting on my lipstick a bit more difficult.

    The hotel is absolutely gorgeous. It has everything you need, and even has a really good cafe on the ground floor which is great for brunch. The bar is lovely and relaxed too, and the location is perfect.

    .....ermmmmm nitpicking here, but there was a steel bar above the bed that we had to be careful of, however it didn't bother me that much.

    Loved the decor and facilities! Reception/bar area was spacious and light, LOVED all the plants and comfy seating! Our room felt sleek and modern, the lighting was really sensual, gave an intimate vibe that was perfect for our stay. LOVED having a fridge! Was really lovely to have my request for our TV to be facing the bed granted, I knew it might not be possible but staff (Dani, I think her name was) made sure we got the room we wanted. The cafe was lovely too and the potato hash was UNREAL. Basically I wish we coukd have stayed longer just to soak up the incredible atmosphere the room amd hotel overall gave us. Thank you!
