Brilliant stay as always. Great location, great staff. Clean room, well sized. Will always look to stay at one of the Manchester properties. Looking forward staying at the Piccadilly one in June.
Great vibe, lovely rooms, nice decor with perfect team members
Absolutely ideal location for us ,close to the tram & we love the hotel will continue to use when the price is right
Very helpful staff all requests were met
Excellent location, very clean spaces, good breakfast. The reception staff wasn't very welcoming, unlike the breakfast staff, who were very friendly. I didn't find the bottle of water promised to BeOne members in the room.
Clean, bright, welcoming surroundings. Great rooftop view. Efficient and friendly staff. Comfy bed. Great location.
perfectly comfortable, very central.
I generally use Motel One when in Manchester, the locations are great and the rooms are modern and very clean. But the staff at St Peters Square are fantastic, two ladies on reception (sorry I didn't get their names) were so helpful when I had a very busy evening and was super delayed by trains.
Excellent. Quick check in online, we booked a room with view which met all expectations. Clean and cosy room. Breakfadt was good and plenty of choice. We loved the location opposite the Central library. Would definitely come again. Excellent value for money.
The location is strategic! The rooms are fairly basic but very clean and comfortable. The breakfast is plentiful and really good! The staff is very kind and helpful.
Very nice place clean and comfortable
Lovely staff, great buffet, clean, great air con and location
Great staff - professional, friendly, welcoming. Spotlessly clean room. Comfortable bed + pillows. Great location (for me). Will be back.
3 night stay, can't fault the rooms, service or position of the hotel. Great price, 5th floor, 3 lifts so no waiting. Did not eat in the hotel but bought coffees. Comfortable lounge area. (Larger than expected) Here is a hint for the hotel. Did not like the plastic cups in the room. Why not offer a proper cup/mug with the hotel logo on to buy take home) Would I stay again , YES !
Excellent hotel with super friendly staff in a great location. Worth more than 3* - would definitely stay again. A huge well done to the Morel Team 😊
The bedrooms were super comfortable, well stocked with essentials, and the location of the building is steps away from a tram stop that gives you access to the entire city, with several shops and eateries are a stones throw away making the location very convenient. Every single member of staff - the reception team, bar staff, and cleaners - were absolutely outstanding. They were all incredibly helpful, positive, extremely knowledgeable of the area we were staying in, and all had a genuinely great personalities and sense of humour. While still remaining professional, my friends and I were all able to have great chats with all of the staff whenever we passed by or needed something. Their attention to detail was fantastic, they remembered my birthday and made sure to say happy birthday as I passed through reception. Absolutely nothing was too much for them, they were so happy to help at all times. The building, location, bedrooms, and facilities were all wonderful - but I cannot stress enough that it is the staff that brought this hotel to life for us. We will all 100% be returning!
Lovely hotel, good sized and comfy rooms
It is the 3rd we’ve stayed at a motel one and always enjoyed our stay. Clean, comfortable with a relaxing vibe and very friendly staff. We have since booked to stay at sister hotel in London.
The hotel room and bathroom are always very clean and the staff are friendly and helpful
Lovely staff very helpful and polite especially the reception staff always smiling and they were very busy. Thank you
Room was clean and everything which you require for a city trip. Only thing the smell from the bathroom was horrible, we couldnt leave the door open. Place is quite loud as well.
we had a good room, the hotel is very well located in the city center, breakfast is fine one negative point , recertion staff are not very friendly
Overpriced ( yes I know it was marathon weekend ) but £318 was excessive for facilities provided. Room was clean and comfortable, towels lovely and fluffy. Mirror was far too narrow and positioned in totally inaccessible place for drying hair and applying makeup. Liked the bar area and all staff were very friendly
Central location Friendly helpful staff Great comfortable room and a good night sleep
Great hotel, excellent location, clean, comfortable, really nice reception and bar area, very reasonably priced.
Great central location with lovely, helpful, friendly, happy staff. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are compact but very nice. Downside was the toilet was extremely squeaky!!
Clean and tidy
Not great ventilation in the bathroom and limited breakfast options. Despite paying for breakfast, my partner didn't eat which meant we had to find something elsewhere at an additional cost. Cleanliness was very good. A hairdryer would have been appreciated. The stay was ok but not amazing. We wouldn't return.
That was a great stay at your hotel. All stuff were really kind. Room and facilities were comfortable. Breakfast was amazing!!!
Great location, friendly staff and clean tidy hotel
A fantastic one night stay at this perfectly located hotel all at a great price and look forward to returning 😀 lovely continental breakfast too !
I’ve stayed at Motel One St. Peter’s Square Manchester twice now, and it’s great value for money but looks and feels more luxurious. Staff are really helpful and friendly, and the luggage storage facility even after checking out is fantastic. Will definitely be staying there again in future 10/10
All was great, convenient location, beautiful lobby and atmosphere. Would make the breakfast more efficient---cleaning and supplying.
The bed sloped at about 45% angle as it was clearly not checked to see if the mattress had failed. I told the reception staff on checkout and he offered no kind of compensation. He just said he would ask maintenance to check it. The checkin was nice, the staff were friendly. Breakfast was expensive but nice. The communal carpets are disgusting and tired, the bedroom carpet also needs refreshing. It was clean though and quiet. Being a cellular black spot, wifi should be good. It wasn't. It was so poor, I couldn't do my scheduled physio appointment via video chat. When I told reception staff they said I couldn't have been logged in. (I am an IT tech, I know how to use wifi). I was connected but the data was so slow, it was unusable. Also, I am English. EVEWRY SINGLE TIME, I open the website, it defaults to German. It's not hard to select the native language. I find that both disrespectful and a little arrogant.
I couldn’t be happier with my stay at St Peter’s Square, Manchester. Reception was welcoming, efficient, friendly and professional. They afforded access to my room an hour ahead and put the second room in the booking on the same floor. The room was clean and had everything I wanted. Comfy bed, blackout curtains, plenty of good lighting and mirrors. The bathroom was clean and had high-quality fittings with absorbent towels. The bar was well-stocked and friendly. The only downside was the lounge area looked a bit scruffy - clean but dark and disorganised but this was one of the best hotel stays I have had and pleased for the opportunity to give a glowing report.
Great location, fantastic hotel, can’t wait to come back.
Stay was good. But was told at check in we would get sent invoices and we’ve still not received.
I have stayed in this hotel half a dozen times and cannot fault it. On this occasion the reception staff went over and above to help me.
This was my first stay at a Motel One. Good location, price, room, staff, breakfast - thank you.
I was unable to get any sleep due to the sound of running water rattling drains near my room - It sounded like the continuous run of a toilet. Otherwise the stay was satisfactory
This is the only hotel I stay at in Manchester and many other European cities. All of them are just what I need. One very important thing you need to change. Your pre-arrival check in website is in breach of the UK and EU GDPR. You expect people to provide sensitive information including date of birth and other, more importantly, passport number. I have spent 60 years travelling world-wide and still do. No other hotel demands this data, which can easily be stolen.
Good hotel. Friendly staff. Good location. Good bar. No hot breakfast. For some reason all info / check-in etc.. came through in German??? Room could be cleaner, hadn't been hoovered, bathroom had debris from previous guest, shower not very powerful.
A nice hotel. The breakfast didn't have the best variety and a bit expensive, I guess due to very late booking.
Had a lovely stay!
Everyone was really helpful. Very friendly and nothing was too much bother. The reception staff and Robert the janitor were great. Shout out to the Barman on Sunday night (sorry forgot to ask his name) was brilliant. His recommendations for gin was superb!!
Excellent stay again- such a quiet hotel for a city centre location (because it’s on St Peter’s Square). Appreciate that the cups in the room have been significantly upgraded from the flimsy/dangerous paper ones to bigger, sturdy plastic ones. Would still prefer proper ceramic mugs, though. Would prefer jugs of real fruit juice for breakfast instead of the horrible machine-mix concentrates, which taste a bit like horribly sweet cough medicine. Even basic cartons of supermarket long-life juice would be a massive step up from what’s on offer, juice-wise. Fabulous pastries - real-deal croissants & absolutely gorgeous fresh fruit salad.
Great central location and helpful staff.
Very clean and calm environment with access to almost everything. Friendly and helpful staff everywhere. All you need for that perfect stay.
Very smooth, efficient and welcoming checkin. Miss Tadah was very welcoming and assigned a room facing a quiet street. 10 out of 10 for customer service for Miss T!
Very nice hotel, great location in the middle of town but still pretty quiet. Staff very friendly, especially the lady who cares for the breakfast buffet. Liked also a lot that the had a in-room safe, reusable cups in the room and more option to store and hang clothes. The lobby was spacious but too dark. A bit lighter couours would fresh up

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.
