I booked to stay from 15th to 17th May for my husband's 30th birthday. I chose GJS because it was billed as a luxurious, unusual hotel - somewhere special for such an occasion. On arrival we were very impressed with the decor, the bathroom and little touches but as our stay progressed things unravelled. Some of the shutters on our... More

I have stayed here on numerous occasion and can't fault it. I just wish I could afford an 'Eclectic' room every time! Great location, stunning rooms, comfortable bed and good deals on late room bookings. Every time we go to Manchester I start looking at other hotels with the idea of staying somewhere a bit cheaper but then every time... More

This is an old victorian school just 10 minutes walk from Manchester City Centre converted at great expense in to a lovely hotel. Every bedroom is individual so ask them to say which one you are having when you book, some are set on two levels, with role top baths and lots of original features, exposed brick work and ornate...

Having used TripAdvisor for many years, we’ve never actually left a review. However, following our wedding on a Friday in April of this year, we felt obligated to let everyone know how good The Great John Street Hotel is! We booked the venue 18+ months in advance and from ‘Day 1’ Bronwen (the wedding planner) was brilliant. Very attentive, always... More
