Stayed here last night for my husbands works do. We checked in and went to our room which was like walking into an igloo. Once we found the thermostat which was on the wall at the opposite side of the room we realised why it was so cold. It was set to 10 degrees. The maintenance guy assured us the heater would stay on if we left the room so we went down to the bar to warm up. Went back to the room and the heater hadn't stayed on. Any card however can be used in the slot so we then left a card in when we went to the party so the room was warm when we returned.
Also we were supposed to have sky sports 1 but couldn't get it, even the maintenance guy who was very pleasant and polite couldn't get it working so the hubby watched the football in the sports bar instead.
We really enjoyed the party but didn't rate the meal. Th veg was rock hard. However breakfast he following morning was good part from having to queue to get a table and our coffee didn't arrive until after we'd finished eating.
All in all apart from the freezing room and food issues we had a pleasant stay.

We stayed her to attend a works Christmas party nearby, the room was basic and the tv picture too fuzzy to watch,we used the pool facilities which were good.
Breakfast was ok but not brilliant.
For the price I didnt think it was cheap, have stayed in others in same area which I think are better value.

Great party night venue... fabulous spa facilities for the price. Food average but the atmosphere on the party nights is brilliant. .. not recommended if you want a quiet get away but great for party's.

I must start by saying the staff are great, so friendly and will do anything to help especially the housekeepers. I am currently staying at the hotel with my husband over Christmas, and my only couple of gripes is that first, we have booked to be on the upper deck, mainly due to children not being allowed, however this is not the case, as there are kids running up and down the corridors - not impressed. Secondly the Christmas dinner was £59.99 each, and when my husband was asked if would like lamb or turkey, he asked if he could have one slice of each, but was told no, its one or the other mmm once again not impressed. I've no idea why he was told no or what difference it would have made especially for the price we paid!!! So far apart for those issues, the hotel and food are ok.

We didn't stay at the hotel just had Christmas dinner there. The dinner itself was quite nice but very rushed. They where clearing the tables around us. It was good for adults but not very child friendly. After dinner we wanted to carry on celebrating so went to the bar. We where then asked to leave at 6:00 pm as we where not residents.

A great weekend. The room was ideal once the very friendly and helpful staff provided us with a radio to listen to Radio 4. The food in the restaurant was superb and very reasonably priced. Because there were parties in for their Christmas dos, the service was rather slow and the room noisy. Breakfasts were great and I appreciated the free newspapers.

My boyfriend and I visited the hotel for the weekend, we really enjoyed our stay at the hotel, when we arrived we was welcomed by friendly staff who introduced us to all the facilities in the hotel. We payed extra for the upperdeck room which was worth it and we recommend it to people staying at the hotel as the room was presented well and had useful facilities. There was a few minor issues however they were nothing we had to complain about , the room was clean and tidy but the heating was not working, which wasn't a big issue at the time as they also equiped a plug in heater in the room. Also we could smell drafts of smoke passing into the room but we did not know where it had come from, maybe from people smoking in their rooms which is not allowed or it could have been from the windows as we were on the first floor , so in that case people should not be allowed to smoke right outside the hotel where it is disturbing visiters. Even though the rooms were clean, the walls could do with a repaint as they were quite marked and discoloured. Apart from the downfalls ,overall the hotel was great. The bed was very comfy to the point we payed extra for a later checkout and also the breakfast which was included was to good standards , it required a variety of foods and you could eat as much as you want. We ate at the verve restuarant in the hotel ,the food was nice but we would of liked a bigger portion for the price. The sky box in the room was one of the advantages of the upperdeck room as we could relax in the room watching tv and then could order food later on through room service which came within 5 minutes. The pool and jaccuzi had a nice atmosphere, but the pool could have been abit warmer as i was quite cold. When we checked out of the hotel we were suprised at the bill as we were expecting it to be a lot more , so i definitley would say its good value. I recommend couples who are looking to go to a hotel for the weekend to visit this accomodation.

Felt put off by current reviews but had booked so hey ho. Lots off steps to climb but nice appearance. Staff were all friendly and helpful, both in hotel, restaurant and spa.
As I had just been discharged from hospital I booked for rest and relaxation purposes. Was in upper deck upgrade room as was only available. Lovely room, well equipped, nice toiletries, amazing bed and duvet and even 2 types of pillow (foam and down) - great as I have a bad neck.
Kim in spa was attentive and helpful and really made me feel at ease dispite my poorly state.
Due to pain I had to leave restaurant before food arrived - staff brought to room with no addition charge.
Verve food very nice. Ordered twice and cesaer salad from bar was also nice (and I'm a bit of a a la carte snob really!).
Would come again and recommend to others 😎

Stayed here for two nights this week while in Manchester on business. Having stayed before at a sister hotel, I am not a big fan and this stay cemented that view.
The Village hotels ( my apologies - "urban resort"...whatever that means ) are big boisterous places with a mix of business types and wanna be fit people. This is no different. Reception staff were friendly, bar staff OK, restaurant staff attentive but clearly the chef wasn't entirely. My first night steak was passable, but the seconds rib rack was....Luke warm to say the least.
To then cap it, I managed to obtain a haunted TV. The remote had seen better days and on my second night refused to do anything but switch on the set. Having managed to switch it off somehow before dinner, returned to a fired up TV later !. Guy next door decided to have a loud midnight phone conversation, then snored all night - not the hotels fault, but annoying.
Best bit ? - breakfast to be honest. Nicely presented, but again...Luke warm at best.
