Yotel Manchester Deansgate

Was great, perfect location, would recommend. Right in the centre where you want to be.

Good Hotel for the value. I was satisfied with the comfort of the bed and the room in general. The shower was also nice and new. The room didn’t have tea/coffee but they were available at the floor just by the elevator. The only problem for me was the cleanliness. The room wasn’t super clean. As shown in the photos there were dust piled in the corners and crevices but not in the degree that would make you uncomfortable. A nice stay overall.

I only booked YOTEL Deansgate because I stayed at the London location (just off Tottenham Court Road) over a decade ago and it was amazing. Unfortunately, this experience couldn’t have been more different. The location is the only real positive – it’s excellent, right in the heart of Manchester. The staff, however, were inconsistent. Some were professional, but others were sitting in reception loudly talking about their night out and swearing, which really brought down the atmosphere. The room itself was very basic and not properly cleaned – I even found women’s hair on my bed. On top of that, the constant sound of water pipes running through the night made it difficult to sleep. To add insult to injury, when I asked to extend my checkout by just 15 minutes, I was told it would cost £13. Given the poor standard of the stay, this felt unreasonable. Overall, I left feeling really disappointed. YOTEL Deansgate fell far short of the quality and service I once associated with the brand.

While the location of the property is prime, the amenities, cleanliness and other facilities are substandard. Walls, ceiling and corners of the rooms are full of pipes, which feels like living in a parking lot. The floors and corners were so dusty that it looked like it was uncleaned for a week. There were small left out cardboard papers under the bed. More of that the room doesn't have a water kettle and tea station in the room and you have to travel long down the passage to a common station, waiting for your turn. The station has very limited options of tea and coffee and the machine is very slow. The cups are dirty, no paper cups. Asked about breakfast the night before and they said 12£, but had to pay 16£ in the morning. Said, it would be 12£ if I would have paid yesterday evening. No cereal in the breakfast. Not a 16£ worth. No takeaway paper cups available. I won't stay here next time and will ask others the same.

Great stay, nice hotel in a great location. Rooms are on the smaller side but to be expected in the city. Breakfast was good, would get it again if I was to stay there in the future.

Quirky decor. Simple bedroom that includes a hairdryer and a TV with Netflix (need to login to your own account). There is an area on each floor where you can grab an iron and ironing board, as well as help yourself to coffee/tea and milk in a fridge. Breakfast was quite good, standard English bfast but also had shakshuka. There’s a holder for your phone and a drink in place of a bedside table, but they didn’t seem entirely clean.
