Top Salford Hotel Reviews

AC Hotel by Marriott, Manchester Salford Quays

AC Hotel by Marriott, Manchester Salford Quays

8/10 Good
"The rooms were very clean and comfortable although the beds are small but the rooms big enough to fit bigger beds in. The bath is also very narrow. I am of average build and height but could not stand normally in the shower due to the base being so narrow it slopes up so you have to stand sideways to avoid falling over. This is enough for me not to book this hotel again alone as I was always scared of slipping as i tried to move in the shower. There is plenty of room for shower trays rather than a bath."

Parking was a real bonus and it was only a 20 minute walk into the city centre . Only downsides were the lift waiting for replacement and you could hear every noise from the room up above which was very disturbing at 3-5 am on the Sunday morning .

"I had a fabulous stay. The bed was comfortable, the apartment was clean and tidy although the shower attachment holder was broken so had to strategically position it so I could have a hands free shower. Also the shower drain was blocked which I unblocked - looked like it hadn't had a proper deep clean for a few months. I wouldn't have noticed this if the water drained away properly. Overall a fab apartment at a ridiculously low price in comparison to others."
