Village Hotel Bury
Latest Reviews
If you are looking for an affordable hotel outside of Manchester, with relatively easy links back into the city, this is a great hotel. The Upper Deck rooms are worth the extra for as you get a huge bed, huge TV and some lovely bedding. The leisure facilities are first class. A large gym with all the equipment and weights that you could want - there's even a separate ladies gym and two class aerobic rooms. The pool, sauna, hot tubs and steam room are well presented, and a welcome place to relax after a good workout.
The selection of foods in the bar isn't the best, but the quality is perfectly adequate. The restaurant has a slightly upper market selection of food available, but it's priced accordingly. Beware that sometimes service is added - sometimes it's not, and in my opinion, 10% isn't justified when the service levels aren't amazing.
Overall, the front of house team are very professional, very friendly and helpful. The bar staff often don't seem interested and it appears that customer service isn't important to them - a simple "I'll be with you in a minute" often goes a long way as opposed to ignoring you totally!

this was one of if not the best hotel i have ever stayed in lovely food and very clean comfortable rooms, but the most special thing for me was the staff in particular the one girl on reception last thursday evening, as i am well in to my senior years and struggle with a lot of things you can imagine how stressful it is to attend family special occasions especially in a big city, this girl noticed my nerves and came to my aid she went out of her way to explain she knew the venue to which i was attending and she arranged a lovely taxi to pick me up not only from the hotel but back again afterwards she even alerted me when it was time, she talked to me and reassured me nothing was to much trouble, the sad thing is i did not get her full name i just remember her first name was lauren i do hope the hotel can find this girl and say thank you as i have taken my daughters time to help me do this and i thought staff like this did not exist anymore so i will be returning to this hotel and bringing my friends with me.

Only spent one night after attending a christening. Stayed in an upper deck room, very clean, comfortable and well decorated. The staff were very efficient and friendly from reception to the restaurant. Having stayed in Village hotels previously we knew what to expect and were not disappointed.

Booked for one night but was disappointed with the room decor. So dim and dingy. Some road noise from the nearby motorway but no too bad. Lovely big television though. Didn't like the menu or prices for evening meal so eat at the Fayre and Square. Breakfast though was great, they obviously have a good chef.

Wonderfully comfortable bed. Bit of a hike to the room and could use some instructions. Leisure center and restaurant both excellent. Staff friendly and helpful. Will return.

Having stayed here for a few days I can't praise it enough. Although a few slight niggles.
The food was great and had a great deal to choose from. I do need to mention that there was a young lady that was on shift both 21st and 22nd had the most amazing service skills. Sadly I've forgotten her name. But did help in locating a great seat to allow myself to Skype my family.
The fitness facility's provided great equipment and clean pool for some well needed relaxation. I managed to attend a Zumba class. WOW!!!! This class was hot hot hot and provided plenty of smiles. Well done.
The room was spacious and very clean and comfortable. I was in the upper deck rooms and had Sky TV available but could only seem to get itv on it. Although close to the motorway you couldn't hear it.
Without a doubt I would stay here again

We have stayed in many of the Village Hotels mainly because they have good deals on offer, wonderful food and facilities.
We have on a few occasions complained or gave our reviews on a few problems we have found.
Mainly stained mattresses and bad housekeeping but this Hotel was wonderful the mattress was brand new and the room was spotless.
Well done top marks to the housekeeping team.
As usual all the leisure facilities was first class and food good and plentiful.
Good nights sleep and a fantastic fan in the room too.
Lovely view of the river from our room.
50" TV and WIFI in the room.
Would recommend this Hotel and will be back.
I just noticed one thing and i will mention it so that it can be corrected, the fire extinguishers in the hall ways were very dusty and could do with a wipe over.
More reviews to follow of this chain as we have many booked so we can see more parts of our country and hope that we find the next one as good as this.

Had a club room and loved it . Tbh when we first turned up thought bugger it's in the middle of no where next to the motorway but it was great. Staff were friendly and efficient and your pool was clean and bright definatly an added bonus. We actual spent the evening at the pub next door only cos you was full of magic Mike hens which worked out a lovely evening for us :-) well done we will be back xx

Stayed here over Christmas in one of the upper deck rooms. Can't fault the room at all. Spacious bedroom and bathroom, very clean and generous storage space. The bed was amazingly comfortable! However, the best thing about our stay was definitely the breakfast. Best English breakfast I have had in a hotel. All staff were friendly and polite. Would definitely stay here again.

Were on business trip and ended up on Village. Its a hotel in medium range level, quit big, one like sportsbar, and one normal restaurant, good service in both. The hotel are not a hotel you shoose as a nice family hotel on holiday. But on businesstrip far better than many others.
They charge 10 pound for breakfast, and it were just standard nothing special.
My room were big, updated with big flat tv, clean and quite.
Overall satisfied
With best regards

This a larger just of motorway hotel. Easy to get to or from. Ample parking. Friendly staff. Stayed in upper deck room. Large, spacious big tv. WiFi poor and you cannot buy improved service. Upper deck rooms distance Rom reception and not easy to get to. Was problems with customers gaining access to rooms as cards not working properly.
Food in restaurant ok. Reasonable selection of wines and beers.
Good leisure facilities.
Rooms noises when people moving about in morning. Annoying gap under door to room which sends bright light into room. Quite annoying.
I would have. Given a 3.5 rating if possible.

WE stayed for Friday and Saturday night and due to circumstances we had to have a low floor room. We were kept awake on both Friday and Saturday by the music from the function room below. Thankfully it stopped about 1 am.Apart from this the hotel itself is very good with friendly helpful staff. Would stay again but not at weekend or would ask for a quiet room.

There was no heating in the room and no towels until I requested them but othewise it was fine. The leisure facilities are excellent!

I have stopped here many times, over the years the standards have gone lower and lower, the staff are always very friendly. The breakfast is very good but £10 extra. The bar menu has a poor selection of food.

The new wing of this hotel is very impressive. The executive rooms are spacious and modern with great decor and wonderful en suite. The shower is the best I've had, the bed amazingly comfortable and a very efficient hairdryer! The only downside is that the huge mirror is no where near a light source, it's too big and heavy to move and the lamps have different plugs so can't bring those across either! So hair styled with no light and makeup applied using small compact mirror over the other side of the room! Sort it please!
The breakfast is amazingly good with a good choice and service is efficient. We loved the "pub" with good food and service but found Starbucks a let down. It was grubby and let the rest of the hotel down!
The long walk to the room going up and down floors became quirky rather than an inconvenience and we are planning a return stay in June!

Would definitely stay again :-)

We stayed for 2 nights in the Village Hotel Bury and chose the Upper Village upgrade. The room was difficult to find initially as it was on the first floor but involved a lift to the first floor then changing floors to the first floor! We weren't alone and found our room courtesy of a decorator! That aside, everything else was really good, the room, food and leisure facilities were just what we wanted for a weekend break and rest.

Love this hotel and their party/tribute nights not had a bad experience here everything as always been to my liking.
Great friendly helpful staff, my only complaint is the amount of stairs up to the entrance.

I chose to stay there using a £20 a night offer for my husbands birthday.
The room was spacious and on arrival looked clean however after moving the sofa we found dust, staples and some other plastic bits on the floor. The bed was extremely uncomfortable so neither of us slept a wink.
We headed down to breakfast the next morning. It was buffet style. Food was first class couldn't fault it at all. Probably best I've had in a hotel!
Due to the uncomfortable bed we will not be staying there again which is a shame because the venue itself is lovely.

We were staying in bury due to Manchester hotels being fully booked. Hotel was decent and good value for money. Our bathroom hadn't been properly cleaned and we needed three attempts to get a key that opened our door! But bar area was nice and restaurant service was good and food very tasty. So overall was fine.
