Tribe Manchester Airport

the staff were lovely, and the location is very convenient just a short walk to both the bus and rail way stations.

I booked this hotel because an offer meant it was the same price as the nearby Ibis Budget. It's a much nicer looking hotel than that, friendly and attentive staff and nice decor. The room is spacious enough with everything you'd need, including a hair dryer (such as they are at hotels, you're better standing in front of the AC vents tbh). I was asked if I was dining tonight and since there's not much else around the area except for more hotels I said yes, and was told they were expecting it to be busy so they took a reservation for me. I had a drink at the bar (£7.40 for a pint of Camden Hells, that's how you know you're not on holiday anymore, ouch!) and then had my meal; I had olives, garlic bread and lasagna, all very good. A little pricey but always have to remember you're paying airport premiums, because what else are you going to eat? The Tribe website advertised a 24 hour "Grab and Go" shop that sold drinks and snacks, but the one at Manchester Airport seems to close at 4pm, which was before I'd even checked in. This was a little disappointing, there were plenty of staff about so not sure why the shop has to close so early. I wanted some soft drinks to drink in my room and while you can order then at the bar and take them upstairs no problem, you're paying bar prices (maybe this is why the shop closes so early, though I'd like to think it wasn't). There were no vending machines or anything around either so once the restaurant and bar close there's nothing to eat or drink. Maybe this is just me but I like at least having the option of a small snack or drink at night. But then again I realise this hotel is probably aimed at a different kind of traveller than me; much more of a business trip kind of vibe rather than a lone traveller looking for bargains. That said apart from the Grab and Go counter closing at 4pm there was literally nothing to complain about here, especially with the price I paid. A nice way to start or end a holiday/trip.

Welcomed by 1st class reception personnel. Perfect peaceful stay/location. New clean comfortable modern aircon rooms with quality white bedding and towels. Food excellent quality, taste and presentation, thanks to the very high standards set by the chief Chef Colin and all his staff. Will definately return, easy walking to/from Airport Terminals, the Train stn and bus terminus is 2min accross the road. See pic. This also leads to covered walkways to all terminals. Good price point using Tripp, Bfast 15.00 if you book the night before 17.50 if on the day. Open until 10am. Dep room 11am.

The hotel is very convenient as it is very close to Manchester Airport station. From the airport, I recommend taking the inside passage to the train station before exiting at the taxi rank. Good for a quick stopover.

Great location lovely stay will back again next time when my flight at Manchester Airport

Couldn’t be more pleased with our stay at Tribe - excellent room and facilities. The restaurant is well above average and the food was excellent. It made our early morning start much better than would otherwise have been the case. Highly recommended to all.
