"Occupying an old warehouse, this boutique hotel is decidedly luxurious."
"The striking contemporary design of this trendy hotel, behind an Edwardian facade, includes good-size, individually designed rooms."
"Stylish hotel housed in a converted, 19th-century building, located in the centre of town. Close to the Piccadilly train station, several shops and other downtown attractions."
"A favourite with visiting bands and celebs, the Mal is a first choice for those who like to think of themselves as possessors of style." Full review
"Old cotton warehouse and dolls hospital joined by a striking granite extension. Stylish bedrooms: some in dark, masculine shades; others in more subtle pastel hues."
7.0
"Almost immediately upon stepping off the train at Manchester Piccadilly station one comes to face to face with Malmaison, housed in a suitably gothic-looking 19th-century warehouse." Full review
"Malmaison Manchester follows the chain's quirky design style and passion for cool, although rarely at the expense of comfort: the rooms are terrific." Full review
"There are cheeky quotes on everything from light-boxes to toiletries, and its buzzy bar and restaurant are popular with locals as well as guests...rooms have more character, due to their quirky shapes"
"This is easily the city's most stylish lodging, with handsome modern rooms in black, white and crimson. Bathrooms are high-tech, as are the bedrooms with enormous plush beds and all manner of gadgetry" Full review

8.0
"First opened in 1903, the historic Midland’s claims to fame include being where Rolls met Royce and where Becks wooed Posh." Full review
"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."
"Its 312 rooms are used by business-folk and tourists looking for comfort and a little pizzazz." Full review
"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
