Lonely Planet "Stuck in a glorious time warp, the Britannia has decor so over the top it really has to be seen to be believed... It's also slap bang in the centre of town." Full review
Time Out "The Britannia's main selling points are its location - on Piccadilly Gardens - and its very reasonable rates. ... Perfect for those who like a bit of faded grandeur." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"Three-pearl Britannia Manchester is a real mixed bag. On the plus side, the location is spot on, with the city's top shopping and attractions just outside." Full review

The Telegraph8.0
"First opened in 1903, the historic Midland’s claims to fame include being where Rolls met Royce and where Becks wooed Posh." Full review
Independent "The grand building packs a punch, with an elaborate red-brick facade; enormous, pillared reception area...the 312 rooms have a regal colour scheme and some look out over Central Library."
Lonely Planet "Its 312 rooms are used by business-folk and tourists looking for comfort and a little pizzazz." Full review
Michelin Guide "Behind its spectacular red-brick exterior you’ll find a hotel that’s as dignified as they come...public spaces are imposing, while the 312 rooms and suites are softer, though no less finely wrought" Full review
