Premier Inn Manchester Trafford Centre West

Well it’s your average, standard Premier Inn! Great value for what you get. This location is amazing for people shopping in Manchester as its straight across the road from the huge Trafford shopping centre. I’ve stayed here twice and would recommend to anyone who wanted to get their shop on :). Lovely staff at the front desk very helpful. The food menu looked great for the new restaurant but last time I stayed a few years back had a bad meal but maybe it’s changed this time around. The rooms are spacious and clean and you can adjust your room temperature. The shower was amazing and the bathroom was sparkling. You have your wardrobes, TV, tea etc. The usuals you need in your room. But that bed. Oh wow that mattress is like sleeping on clouds that your sink into and the pillows are too. I had the nicest sleep ever I wanted to put the pillows into my suitcase. I’m gonna look into the mattress they use and invest in one! Anyways…

I stayed here with my girlfriend between Friday 12^th — Sunday 14^th September this year.
Check-​in was meant to be at 2pm, but with the time our flights arrives we were at the hotel for about 9:30am, we knew in advance that the hotel offers a service where they can mind your bags for you before/​after check in/​out so we asked about this at reception, the the employee actually checked was there a room ready for us instead and managed to get us checked in early which was great.
The room was great, a good size and was very clean. The TV worked as it should and had plenty of channels all in perfect quality unlike some other hotels I’ve states in.
We were informed on check-​in about a restaurant deal. It was a dinner (2 courses or £2 for a third course), a free drink, and breakfast the following morning for about £22.50 I think it was. We decided to go with this for the first night and we were very please with the meal and we even hung around after for a few drinks at the bar.
That night we both slept very well and we both complimented the bed in the morning as it was a great size and very comfortable. We also had 2 pillows each which is rare in hotels.
We had breakfast in the hotel both mornings and we were very satisfied afterwards. It was a help yourself buffet style so you could customise it to whatever you wanted.
Both Friday and Saturday we went to the Trafford Centre which is literally across the road. The Shopping Centre is massive and has plenty of shops, restaurants and even an arcade and cinema.
On the last day we checked out at about 12pm and left our bags with the receptionist and they were locked away and taken care of for the day while we went to old Trafford to the Manchester United and QPR game. A shuttle bus service was run between the hotel and the Premier Inn at Old Trafford which was £2.50 each which was ideal.
All in all I was very happy with this hotel and would have absolutely no problem staying here again. I highly recommend it. Every staff member was great, the food was good, the rooms were perfect, honestly for the price there was nothing else I could ask for.

Great location. Comfortable room. Great power shower. Great for kids. Good choice at breakfast.
Down side is navigating the very busy roads to walk over to the Trafford Centre but once there the shopping is superb. It was not a problem for us, it was lovely to have a walk but if mobility is an issue then it may be worth driving over.
The hotel bar gets busy on the night, on the whole the staff are friendly and very helpul.
30 minutes free wifi then its £3 for 24 hours and you get a code or voucher from reception.
