We stayed here for one night in May in the eclectic grand bedroom. As soon as you arrive at the hotel you are greeted with a welcoming smile and great service making you feel right at home. The staff could not do enough for us and we were very well looked after. Our bedroom was fabulous - pure luxury and... More

Lovely boutique hotel with fabulous furnishings and decor. Efficient staff. Have had a wonderful afternoon tea here with the girls and also a couple of relaxing evenings with the girls for drinks. Always a treat to go to this hotel. Really special place!

This is a lovely quaint boutique style hotel in the centre of Manchester next to the popular Spinningfields shopping area. Parking is a nightmare - there is no hotel parking so feeding the meter seems to be the only option ... and watching out for the traffic wardens!!!! We had a duplex room - it was ok but not what...

On behalf of all the ladies who attended the lunch on 9 May at Great John Street, thank you very much for a really lovely lunch and afternoon tea rolled into one. Being up on the terrace made it a very exclusive event and I heard a lot of favourable comments. Jill

This small boutique hotel is right in the heart of Manchester. Being next door to the Granada Studio you can sometimes bump into a well know face or two. The building is an old Victorian school which has been converted into a hotel. The rooms are all different and are well appointed and comfortable. I've stayed here twice now and... More

Myself and my lovely bunch of ladies (ages ranging from 21-50) booked for afternoon tea as a birthday celebration for one of our group, and after disappointing experiences in some of manchester's 'luxury' hotels, my hopes were high for a genuinely delicious afternoon tea. I'm thrilled to say that The Great John Street Eclectic Afternoon Tea was brilliant down to... More

A few years have passed since I last stayed here. The hotel itself is an old school which makes for a quirky building that has been clerverly converted. I guess whether you will like this place, all depends on your tastes and priorities. The roof top terrace and lounge areas are very pleasant. As for my bedroom, the mezzanine bathroom... More

I got sent to this hotel as my usual one was full and was so pleased with the result! Initially I was slightly worried as the hotel did not have a full restaurant and I did not want to go out for dinner. However, I ended up in the bar (wonderful relaxed seating) enjoying superb soup and fish cakes from... More

Because of my lovely afternoon I chose to return for a high profile networking event the week after. Beautiful setting, scrumptious sandwiches and cakes and wonderful tea.
