Welcoming and friendly staff, beautiful hotel very clean. Location perfect with tram outside very quiet. Room slightly small but everything in there. Highly recommend will be visiting again.
Staff very pleasant and helpful. Good comfortable clean room
We had a fantastic stay and was able to check in early which made our day! it ment we could freshen up and head out early 👌🏼 The bed was so comfy, staff on point and so helpful and kind. Loved the midday check-out ❣️ The only nit pick I’d have, is the room is quite small! But overall a fab experience with motel one 👌🏼 thank you.
Perfectly nice hotel, rooms felt clean, good value for money. Room a little on small side but for what you say it’s great and moody staff a little but enjoyed later noon check out as well
Modern clean excellent staff great facilities
Space is tight in the room but good value for money and a convenient location
Good location, clean and comfortable. For the price, it is weird to first put out plastic cups for ‘sustainability’ then for the next days put out paper non-reusable cups with wooden stirrers to make tea and coffee in the room. This is very low standard and at a budget hotel level. No tap beer in the bar which is strange also.
Very Good!
Excellent stay. Lovely atmosphere staff warm and friendly. Exceptionally helpful. Definitely will return.
Just wish there was a fridge in the room
Need proper cups in rooms and glasses as well.
Clean Staff pleasant Breakfast poor no hot food
Great location, lovely staff & a really nice hotel. The bar area was brilliant with great seating.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean room with everything we needed.
Reception staff very friendly, room clean and quiet. Location great. Bed comfy. Didn’t like not having ceramic cups in the room & it wasn’t clear that the breakfast was just continental on booking, it was very pricey for what was on offer & the seating was a big awkward to eat breakfast from, would of preferred tables & chairs rather than lounge seating.
Greta’s location, very clean and very quiet considering the central location. Only issues were no phone signal whatsoever in our room (two different networks) which didn’t bother us but might some people - and the TV picture was of very low quality quality despite being an LG.
Love the hotel from its friendly check in, nice bar area and great location. We got a nice quiet accessible room on 1st floor because we were travelling with our dog.
Great location. Friendly welcome. Comfortable room. Excellent lounge/bar area. Delicious, copious breakfast with lots of tasty choices.
Great location and everything clean and smart in the room. Friendly approachable at reception - much appreciated the use of an umbrella on a very rainy Sunday in Manchester. Heating was efficient and most welcome and warming. Would recommend
Lack of facilities. Toilet roll, tissues, shower cap.
Motel One is great value and St Peter's Square is a great location. We visited the Bridgewater Hall, and walked into town very easily. Staff were friendly and helpful and lounge areas are the usual comfy and quirky style. Only thing to mention, it's great that we can leave our bags but at booking out but there was only one staff member who tried to do it all but to save people waiting we were encouraged to get our own bags. But doesn't put me off already booking for return journey in December!
Very helpful staff on reception, clean room and great comfortable bar area. Also perfectly located for the tram, so easy access to the Co-op events. Would stay again.
Great central location
Great location near Oxford Road. Nice clean hotel. I loved the room ‘one with a view’. Comfortable bed, heating you control yourself. Good size tv you can Bluetooth music to. Nice shower room
i was disappointed that there was no drinking glass, no cup for hot drinks ( a paper cup was provided which leaked when i used it to make coffee) and no spoon in the room. This is very poor for a decent hotel.
We had an excellent stay at Motel One St Peter’s Square for our anniversary. The hotel was super clean and had a really relaxed, welcoming vibe. The staff were all incredibly polite and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. A special mention to Pablo who checked us in — friendly, professional, and a great first impression. Would definitely recommend and happily return !!
Fantastic from start to finish. Can't fault anything 😉
Excellent hotel, staff were very friendly, rooms are very nice and comfortable.
Hotel was lovely. Room was small but sufficient. Perfect location for us as we were visiting the theatre.
A great low cost option in the centre of the city.
Generous check in and check out times much appreciated
Good overall- low water pressure in shower
Perfect location, fast and easy check in, clean and tidy room, extremely comfy bed, later check out than most places. Well worth it, would stay again
Comfortable & clean room with good amenities.
would have been nice to have water in the room as we arrived. no bin liners
Thermostat in the room didn't work but otherwise happy with my stay. Room was spacious and clean. Great soundproofing, couldn't hear a thing outside despite being in the busy centre. Great staff service and hotel bar.
Motel 1 is perfect for a short stay. Great location with its own welcoming bar area. The rooms are small but clean and comfortable. Our one night week day stay was great value.
I have stayed here a few times because it is great value for money; clean and comfortable room, central location, friendly staff. This time however, my stay was slightly marred by a few small things. I paid £18 more than my previous stay 2 weeks earlier (weekday rather than a Sunday) but my room was a lot smaller(cramped even) with an unnecessary table blocking a full length mirror. The narrow mirror itself was bizarrely positioned so close to the edge of the wall that it meant my arm had little room to manoeuvre when drying my hair as the door was in my way. The end of the bed was so near to the wall that a large person would struggle to get around it. There was only one hangar for my clothes. Finally, an issue with my details the following morning meant I waited almost 10 mins for my invoice to be printed. If this had been my first stay, I would probably not stay again. However, having stayed 4 or 5 times at this hotel, I know this latest experience is unusual. The staff are friendly and helpful (I was given a quiet room on request), bathrooms and rooms immaculately clean and beds very comfortable. The lounge is particularly well decorated and furnished in a relaxed and cosy style. I don't eat breakfast so am unable to comment on this aspect.
Very nice location and convenient. Our room was quiet. We’ll go back next trip.
Great staff interaction, everyone was lovely, including tech support for our meeting room. Nothing was too much trouble for all the staff. Great bedrooms and breakfast, Special shout out to Angie for her fantastic communication and interaction.
Very welcoming. Hotel is immaculate and rooms are cosy
Wonderful Staff.Ryan was so helpful.Marisa was too.L9vely breakfast.Lovely room.Will be back.
Excellent staff, comfortable room, bar that is open late, all at a really affordable rate.
Brilliant value for money
Overall I had a great experience, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly! The only downside is that the toilets in the lounge area are locked with key cards, this meant that after checking out we were unable to use this bathroom even after paying for drinks.
Very pleaseantly surprised by the whole atmosphere and friendly staff. Impressed with cleaniness and modern feeling. Only critics for my short stay would be that there was no hand soap available in the washroom, and the pillows are too soft in my honest opinion. Lastly I did have to ask regarding my free bottle of water rather than being reminded/given it during my check-in.
always good, reliable, clean and comfortable room and nice communal facilities
Fantastic hotel spotless clean fantastic service only one bad point was the paper cups in the room to drink coffee out of , would have expected something a little better
Easy and quick check in. Very friendly staff. Clean, comfortable and well equipped double room. Easy to control air conditioning, we would have liked to be able to open the window more than a tiny crack however I understand due to the height of the room 6th floor why this is not possible.
Really lovely staff and really nice and clean room. Breakfast was good but no hot chocolate in the machine so I just got hot milk instead lol ahah and it ran out of milk a couple times so coffee options were limited too. Really nice to check out at 3pm. Water pressure in shower wasn’t the best but that was no bother. Great location. Would definitely stay again.

Hotel Manchester St Peter's Square
Chesterfield furniture, imposing bookshelves and checked patterns abound in our third hotel in Manchester, our Motel One Manchester-St. Peter’s Square, which is bursting with quintessential British cosiness. So settle in and enjoy a cup of tea before you set out from our design hotel to explore the city! Our Motel One Manchester-St. Peter’s Square is the ideal starting point for exploring ‘Cottonopolis’, as Manchester is also known thanks to its history as the centre of the cotton industry. If you’re heading somewhere specific – to the Old Trafford football stadium to watch a match, for example – then you can catch the tram directly from the St. Peter’s Square tram stop. And our hotel not only has great transport connections: its central location makes it perfect for anyone who prefers serendipity to schedules, and simply wants to wander about and see what they find. You can set off from our design hotel and soon find yourself in Chinatown or the lively Gay Village.
One for all
And there’s plenty more on offer on the doorstep of our affordable hotel. Countless city highlights lie just a few minutes’ walk away, such as the Palace Theatre, Manchester Art Gallery, St. Mary’s Church and the Science & Industry Museum. Art and culture fans will have plenty to keep them busy. In particular, bookworms and architecture buffs are sure to love visiting the nearby Portico Library, John Rylands Library or the Central Library – or even all three! They’re all memorable locations both inside and out, and can all be reached on foot.
Anyone travelling for business is also perfectly positioned at our affordable hotel in Manchester thanks to a quick, direction connection to the airport by public transport. Our design hotel also offers convenient check-in and check-out times and free wifi, to make sure your stay is efficient and a little more relaxed, even if you’re in a rush. The Manchester Central Convention Complex, with its conferences, trade fairs and events, is less than five minutes’ walk away. So you won’t lose any time travelling, and can enjoy a nice pint at the end of the day instead!
The perfect base
No matter what your Manchester trip looks like – whether it’s packed full of sightseeing or business meetings – you’re sure to get a good night’s rest with us and wake up refreshed for your day. Our affordable design hotel not only boasts modern rooms with super-comfy box-spring beds, but also an extensive breakfast buffet every morning, with a wide selection of regional, vegetarian and vegan specialities.
And in the evenings, before you hit the sack, it’s worth stopping by the bar in our Lounge, where you can enjoy snacks like delicious toasted sandwiches, and of course drinks like gin and tonic – for another kind of toast! So cheers to Manchester!
