grace, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Hotel was lovely with many quirky features in public areas and the room. Loved the air conditioning. Friendly staff who very helpful. Understood hotel is reasonably old so wheelchair access was to the rear of the building but exterior was in a graffiti street which felt a bit unsafe. Front of hotel was bright and lively.
Lynne, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The hotel is great. That said, the location is a double edged sword. It is in the heart of the gay district, which is amazing as it’s alive and buzzing with people. With that comes late night clubbing and the music coming through the building is incredibly disruptive. We didn’t get to sleep until 4 AM due to the noise from the nearby nightclubs.Book with caution!
Nicholas, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The room was clean with modern decor and had a lovely view of the canal. The hotel is located a short walk from Piccadilly station, and within walking distance to many shops, bars and restaurants. We will definitely visit again in the future.

4/10 Poor

Great location, friendly/kind staff. Non existent a/c resulted in very uncomfortable stay and poor sleep. Two fans in the room was a tip off. It always felt like a sweat box. My stat should’ve been MUCH better.
Harold, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Fantastic location. Very close to Manchester Piccadilly train station. Gay Village area of Manchester. Professional reception staff. Helpful with directions. Beautiful accommodation. Very clean room and bathroom. Toiletries provided. We had an early start in the morning and they provided breakfast in a bag delivered to our room as requested to take on the train. Great variety of items too. Will definitely be returning.

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely loved our stay! Couple niggles… Mini bar over priced and the lighting in the room is too dull, had to use bathroom mirror, having fybromyagia could have done with sitting at desk. Staff are lovely and very helpful. Room was clean and tidy. Overall I would stay again.

2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely fantastic room and staff, a warm welcome and great location. Great that breakfast is delivered to your room as a standard, but not one to get excited about, it was a disappointing continental as far as continentals go and definitely not worth the money I'm afraid. Wouldn't stop me from staying again though, everything else was brilliant

GILLIAN, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely hotel, absolutely brilliant location. We received a lovely welcome and told about the room. The room itself was fabulous, well decorated and a pleasant place to spend time. The TV was huge, and the bed was extremely comfortable. well stocked mini bar, an Illy Nespresso style machine and great views made the stay even better. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend Velvet to anyone looking for a great hotel within walking distance of the bets bits of the city.
Rachel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I have stayed here many times for convenience for work and celebrations with my husband and friends. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Definitely will be coming back. I had a up expected upgrade which was so nice to receive.
Choi Mei, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great stay, such a comfortable bed.

My husband and I booked a 1 night stay as we were watching a comedian at O2 Apollo. It was a very direct, simple 20min walk to the venue. Being right on the canal was a beautiful setting. We stayed on a Thursday eve and it was busy, but the noise was not heard in our room, which was fab! Bed was so comfortable. A very compact room, but had everything we needed (we stayed in a cozy kingsize). The welcome drink of prosecco was a great touch too. Loved the minibar option too (we did not purchase, but appreciated the option nonetheless).
