The location is excellent and just about a 10 minute walk to everything from Piccadilly to Canal Street. The hotel has complimentary wifi, rooms were well kept and clean, and they have a great breakfast in the morning. My only quibble is I woke up at 2:am because of the singing drunks outside. Remember to keep your windows closed and once you go to bed, you'll be in a heavenly cocoon.

I do think they are beautiful, clean, private and spacious, either for long term stay or short-term. small windows and felt very claustrophibic, after reading the rules i felt like a naughty school child being told not to do ANYTHING but sit there and be quiet, they were a bit extreme, more like 'terms and conditions'...... or LAWS one must abide by in order to take a rest at this apartment. odd.

I absolutely loved it! We stayed in family room for 5 night but when we arrived, the receptionist…read moresaid they upgrade the room for free so we had en-suite room. The facility is very good and room is huge. ( they have an attic for bed room). It is for family room but since the room is massive, it could have had a massive party! It was also time for easter holiday and they bring a nice egg chocolate too! Only problem is it is noisy at weekend due to the fact they are located to gay village. So I could not sleep well and you could hear the music all night. Day time is fine, just weekends are too much if you need to sleep.They do great discount too. Highly recommended!

I have stayed in normal rooms and most recently the club floor. Very comfy beds and the pillow spray will have your drifting off before you know it. The restroom boasts The White Company, London amenities. Good size tub and dual sinks. Shower is a stand-alone corner style with sliding doors, so if your 6'+ you will bang your elbows and knees. The club rooms also have separate sleeping quarters and a nice couch, desk and table with chairs. The room has a couple large flat screen TV's with a good amount of channels. There is an ironing board, small refrigerator, hot water heater and coffee machine. Everyday they drop off a couple cookies and chocolates. There is a restaurant on the ground floor which offers room service and plenty of meeting rooms and banquet halls. With the club floor access, I had access to the club lounge where you could have a variety of beverages and free breakfast. I believe from 18:00-20:00 they have appetizers and free alcoholic beverages available. Nice views of the city from the 8th floor lounge. Tip: Join the IHG rewards to earn night stays and access to the club lounge for FREE drinks and appetizers. Pleasant staff and you can even review your bill and check out on your TV before you leave.

We asked for a room with a window view which they were kind enough to accommodate but the windows look like they haven't been cleaned since the Beatles played live in the Cavern. A little disappointed but hey we're by the seaside and it's tough to keep windows spotless but it would have been nice to actually see out of them for the price we paid to have a room with a view. Over all don't let these little things steer you away. The prices are reasonable the people are super kind, friendly and accommodating the rooms and beds are comfortable and tidy. Just wear your flip flops in the bathtub/shower if your skittish about Mildew. If you have lung and health issues then stay away. There is MILDEW here

Look it up in a map before you go and you'll see what I mean, it's very easy to find and more-or-less straight off the motorway. Very modern clean hotel, with all mod cons - I think we paid £50 for a double room (no breakfast), so it's about the same price as a Travelodge but a lot nicer! Very clean and modern looking rooms, and friendly staff. Big spacious car-park with plenty of spaces. It didn't have much of an atmosphere - I think we were the only guests in the place judging by the empty car park - but it was nice and quiet and we had a good nights sleep! There's also a lovely little pub/bar in the grounds of the Ramada Encore, which does gorgeous food if you fancy a bite to eat without eating in the hotel restaurant - that is well worth a visit too!

The bar / lounge area is great for relaxing and breakfast was lovely. They also serve dinner but we didn't eat there in the evenings.

It's a short walk into the centre of Chester and there's a bus nearby to take you to the zoo and into Liverpool. We'd go back if we were staying in Chester again.

I would have given this five stars if the free Wi-Fi had worked in the bedroom but the signal was too weak, although good in the lounge areas.

I came to the Holiday Inn this evening to attend a Diane James for Leader rally in the Hacienda…read moreSuite, which is located on the -1 floor. I'm going to be honest and shed some embarrassing news that I originally turned up at the wrong hotel, with there being two Holiday Inn's in Manchester center, one being more central and an "Express" hotel round the back of the Crowne Plaza, meanwhile this branch is located more towards Piccadilly, and right next to the Hilton Doubletree hotel. Moving onto my regular review, this is a really nice hotel, especially for a budget chain like Hilton, and I'd even go as far as saying it is just as nice, perhaps nicer than the Double-tree Hotel next store, run by Hilton. When booking in advance the rates did seem quite reasonable at around £100 a night for a standard room, which was the average when booking a a full week including week-ends, which is reasonable but for some reasons for a stay on a Tuesday night, 3 months from now worked out at around £120, which seemed rather expensive, as even the Hilton would have charged less. Holiday Inn is quite a cheaper brand, however this branch does seem quite high end, and on the inside it seemed really modern with a bar area, and some cool seating even on the basement level, and multiple suites. The suites didn't seem really nice, they just seemed average, for the event I visited the Hacienda Suite in the Basement, really wasn't nice and modern as the rest of the hotel, and there was even music from outside which disrupted the event, and made it harder to hear Diane James and co speaking, which was a shame. The toilets were very nice, they seemed spacious and clean and the design was all but plain, it just seemed nice, however the toilet paper did need replacing as it just seemed to be almost empty, apart from half a slice which made the class fall down, like going from Jamie Redknapp to Harry Redknapp straight away. Overall, this hotel is average, which is ruined by the fact that some things including the suites are basic, and that the prices do seem really high when the brand Holiday Inn is supposed to be a cheaper chain, not a high-end one, the service seemed okay, even the Reception desk didn't seem too helpful, so sadly I feel this Holiday Inn has only done enough to earn 2 stars, I would have been willing to give 3 if just one of the flaws was improved such as service, pricing, making it clearer to distinguish between the two hotels in Manchester or of course they didn't play loud music outside, which disturbed the event when they were fully aware it was going on.
