Các đánh giá The Alan

The hotel is very well located, in the city centre. We did not enjoy our rooms view, the window is very high and all we could see is a build construction. But it was a nice experience.

Unfortunately not as good as last time great location but under staffed and rooms not up to standard

The room we stayed has no USB charging in room so recommended to bring your own socket. The flush in toilet needs more time than I expected to refill. Overall ok for a quick one night stay.

Brilliant stay. 100% booked again

The location is perfectly situated between Piccadilly and Oxford Road and Deansgate. Free wine on arrival, staff were lovely and welcoming. The room decor was a little shoddy in places but I didn’t take away from it being a great price, lovely overall hotel and location!

急匆匆住了一晚上，但是很棒的房間～

Excellent hotel but wifi did not connect on any device for duration. Fantastic breakfast, great rooms and brilliant service

Overall not too bad and value for money. They've gone for an 'Industrial chic" look for the rooms with unfinished plaster walls and exposed service pipework on the ceilings, etc. Room size was good but not a lot of light coming into our room (319). The bed was large but the mattress was far too soft and not supportive enough for us. The rugs in the room help to soften/warm the floor, but they weren't cleaned/vacuumed well, with plenty of hairs etc on/in them. The parking nearby was quite expensive, even with the hotel's 25% discount and the spaces in the car park were tight to say the least! Next time I would get the train. Noises: Bins outside our room so we could hear the bottles being emptied late in the evening (Friday) and some odd intermittent pipework and air conditioning noises within the room.

Restaurant and food was really lovely, but the check in process and room itself was below average. The decoration is nice in the lobby but in the rooms is a bit tacky unfortunately. We didn’t arrive until about 9pm as we were told it was 24hr check in and there was no one at the front desk when we first arrived so we weren’t sure if we were in the right place. Then once we go checked in eventually we were placed in accessible room (not upon our testers) which meant we had a wet room instead of a bathroom, no bedside table or chairs at the desk in the room. The bed was comfortable enough for a simple place to sleep and so did the purpose and the breakfast in the morning was so good it almost made up for the rest of the experience.

I’ve no idea how the Alan can claim to be a 4* hotel. I was in a rush to get to a gig when I arrived so ordinarily might have asked to change rooms but my feeling was that this place just isn’t being looked after and all rooms are probably a similar standard. The Alan markets itself to as a quirky hip city hotel but is unloved and really quite soulless. Pros: Central location (but noisy at night), cool vibes in the lobby, large bedrooms, bathroom products smell amazing. Cons: The room was grubby. Mildew and black mold in the shower is unforgivable. Large stain on the carpet (my guess is vomit) barely attempted at cleaning off. Walls marked and splashed. Rug placed at the weirdest angle. Only one tea cup (in a double room booked for 2). No biscuits. Old school analogue TV. I’ve stayed in much better (not to mention cleaner) budget hotels. Last time I visited Manchester I stayed at the Whitworth Locke which is in a similar price range and similar location but is significantly nicer. I regret trying somewhere new and won’t be back.

My biggest problem with this place is that you need to have your room key card placed in a slot on the wall if you want power (lights, outlets etc). We had asked for two key cards and planned to leave one in the slot when out so our devices could charge, but housekeeping pulled the card out when they were in the room. In a world where devices are so commonplace, basically denying guests the freedom to charge them is very odd. The bed was comfortable, and the heating/air conditioning was easy to use and responsive. I, as someone with relatively limited mobility, found the steps into the property to be quite tall and a bit of a problem. It's close to a tram station which is handy, but I wouldn't stay here again. The quality of the room (stained carpet and walls, slightly grimy bath) and restriction on electricity just weren't worth the price.

Really enjoyed my stay. The hotel was decorated to a high standard and was very clean. The staff were very friendly and thw breakfast was lovely. Would definitely stay again

Room was fine but not ready when we checked in, although this was after the time given. When we finally got in the room, no bed for our child despite the fact we booked a family room. More waiting. Breakfast was also a wait as they cook to order. Food was delicious but only one coffee given, asked for another which did not arrive. The stay was fine but not worth the money.
