Radisson Edwardian Hotel

A nice hotel, in a great location. Unfortunately the service doesn’t live up to the expectation.
Whilst we were checking in we were told we had a «king» room. When we questioned if that was 2 beds (as we had requested and had the print out to prove it) we were told «no, you didn’t request that». Once we showed her the print out that clearly stated «2 beds» the women rolled her eyes without saying a word and started furiously typing away. New keys were issued and slided across the counter.
I totals get that mistakes can happen and don’t have a problem with that. However an apology would have been nice instead of making us feel as if we had done something wrong.
Upon departure my companion had 3 (rather large) bags. While the doorman did open the door — IT IS HIS JOB AFTER ALL) he failed to ofer any help of carrying any of the bags down the few stairs to the street. Also no offer of hailing a cab.
Sure they are little things, but things I’d expect from any hotel regardless of stars. It’s just common courtesy !
Would I stay again? No. If I’m paying the price I paid, I expect at least basic service.

Loved Alto the restaurant! You had 2 choices steak or lobster simples! so hours spent pondering the menu not needed! There were 5 of us and we had a great round table which meant no one was left out on a limb which often happens when you aren’t an even number of diners. Waiting staff were efficient but didn’t rush us and kept us well fed with unlimited fries and salad. I went for the grilled lobster which was fab. One of my friends went for the steak which came with a nice peppercorn sauce (optional extra) and was lovely and thick. At £17 i personally think its great value as when would you cook and eat a whole lobster at home?! Wouldn’t recommend if you are a veggie –after all why got to a place who’s main tag line is steak and lobster if you don’t eat either! I’ve eaten here several times and its always been a lovely experience. They also have a nice bar lounge area if you want to relax with a drink afterwards.

Their Alto restaurant is probably the worst place I ve been to eat in manchester. They have the cheek to charge the same price for a cheap sweet potato burger that probably cost a pound to make as their lobster and steak. Definitely never going back.

nice. conveniently located, tasteful rooms. not cheap, but a very positive experience.

My partner and I stayed here whilst visiting the Manchester Christmas Markets and were very impressed! The staff were very friendly, they even moved us to a room with a city view for free! Our room was lovely, very clean and comfortable. They also do a really nice afternoon tea!

Sehr zentral gelegen, direkt in der Stadtmitte. Das Hotel ist sehr sauber und sehr modern eingerichtet. Die Zimmer sind entsprechend, Bügelbrett, Wasserkocher, bequemes Bett, große Glotze, wo man sogar ZDF bekommt, Wlan free. Alles was der Mensch auf Reisen halt so braucht. Empfehlenswert, aber nicht gerade billig.

A wonderful establishment Would love to go again.

We stayed here for 1 night as a treat and were very impressed. Reception was lovely, staff very helpful and polite but it was very relaxed. Everywhere clean and tidy, room was very nice with very nice furnishings. Perhaps could have done with some attention to the tiling grout in the bathrooms as it was yellow in places.
This being our first stay in a 5 star Radisson we were very happy with our stay and would stay again.

This is a beautiful hotel with lovely original features. It has a great history and has a lovely spa downstairs too. maybe a little ‘freshening’ up of the room furnishings wouldnt go a miss to give it a little extra then what other hotels have.

Das Radisson Edwardian in Manchester ist eines der exklusivsten Hotels, in denen ich je war — Kunststück, schliesslich es hat 5 Sterne.
Da ganze Haus, ein bestimmt rund einhundertjähriges Gebäude, vereint auf phantastische Weise Modernität mit Tradition. Der englische Charme vergangener Zeiten ist ebenso präsent, wie die Neuzeit mit ihren edlen Materialien und Stoffen.
Richtig traditionell geht es in der Bar zu. Die ist in bestem Sinne englisch und zwar durch und durch. Mein Zimmer bestand aus einem Flur, einem grosszügigen Bad und einem Zimmer mit bodentiefen Fenstern hinten raus.
Es gibt nicht viel mehr zu berichten. Stellt Euch vor, Ihr fühlt euch pudelwohl, dann wisst Ihr, wie’s dort ist :-)

Gorgeous listed building in which this hotel is set. A fantastic location for shopping or going to the Palace Theatre etc.
The rooms are luxurious with Bang & Olufsen tv’s. The food is gorgeous, especially the breakfast which was lush, room service is avaliable too.
The staff in this hotel were super, really friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel, it can be quite expensive but it is 5 stars!

I stayed here earlier this year to celebrate my partner’s birthday and it really was a treat. The hotel is a luxury hotel and apparently Sven Goran Ericsson was living in one of the apartments at the time! It has loads of facilities although we were only staying for one night so unfortunately didn’t try out the spa, gym or pool. The room we had was large and the bed huge! There were robes and free luxury toiletries and it was great to relax with a glass of champagne in the tub! The breakfast we had was ample, with a good choice. Staff were helpful. The location is excellent for sight-​seeing around Manchester. Highly recommended, though expensive.

It seemed more like a good 4 star hotel. Nice lobby, large and the décor was very contemporary. The room was a good size, and comfy, though not up to 5 star standard. There was a walk in closet area with a sink and mirror which led on to the bathroom (bath, wet area shower and toilet). It would have made more sense for the sink to be in the bathroom. ‘Really enjoyed the Opus One bar. It was very contemporary, designed for a really relaxed, chilled out atmosphere. Cool lighting, very comfy seating and brilliant staff, this was more of a 5 star experience. The breakfast room was very busy and crowded. ‘Had to wait a bit for some of the hot food to be replenished. Overall it wasn’t a bad experience so I’ll stay there again.

One of the few 5 star hotels in Manchester, its in the converted Free Trade Hall which has a great history, inc the famous Sex Pistols gig. The building is beautiful, and for me the highlight is the Opus Bar, which is the closest to a James Bond style bar I’ve found! If you sit up at the bar for drinks they’ll treat you like royalty. The rooms are good, though maybe missing the extra touches you’d expect from a 5 star hotel. The Sienna Spa downstairs feels very luxurious, with a nice mid-​size pool and great jacuzzi, along with a gym and all the treatments you could want. The staff were all helpful, though we never had any problems so didn;t encounter them too much — which is how it should be! I’d definitely recommend it as a place to stay, either for a weekend away or for a business traveller — both would feel comfortable here. Oh, and the location is really central, though Peter Street can get a bit rowdy on the weekends.
