The best bang for buck hotel in Manchester! Free wifi for their prices are a steal, hands down! You get a clean room, hot shower, nice bed and the best part is the free wifi! The staff at the front desk are very warm and friendly, found them very helpful in finding my feet around the places

I specifically registered on Trip Advisor in order to write this review to spare others the same fate that befell me. Like many soldiers who have fallen before me we made the schoolboy error of not checking on Trip advisor first. My heart sank immediately on pulling up to the Lansdowne Hotel…Hotel?? I use the term hotel loosely the exterior... More

Had the mispleasure of spending a night at the Landsdowne, I think any longer and I would have slashed my wrists! I should have guessed the place was bad as the look on the taxi driver's face when I told him where I was staying said it all, poor guy looked as if he'd seen a ghost. Having seen war... More

Cheap enough, clean enough. Drum and bass full volume until 2am so no chance of sleep. This was a week night stay following a late work event and preceded an early meeting in Manchester the following morning. Difficult to concentrate after 4 hours poor quality sleep. Room was only £36, we had upgraded from the £35 option as we asked... More

This hotel brought back memories. Of emptying the befouled cat litter when I was a child. Calamitous check in - had given my room to someone else with same name, took half an hour to resolve, was given family room which was an 'upgrade' but then asked it I would go in a single room instead although they couldn't offer...

Looking for a hotel in the city centre to stay over after a Christmas party Premier Inns etc were on average £100 so I looked a little out of town and found the Lansdown. Easily accessible by bus (approx 20mins) and a good price (£40) Be aware you are paying a cheap price for a cheap hotel The foyer and... More

I'm afraid that this is one of the worst hotels I've been to. The carpets are filthy and the fixtures and fittings should have been replaced at least five years ago. Perhaps the worst issue was the over-powering smell of air freshener. On the good side, the staff were friendly and helpful, but I won't be staying there again, and... More

Foyer is fine, but wiring looks a bit suspect. Corridors OK, room very shabby. No telephone, although it is advertised in the brochure in the room. Overhead lights only, no bedside lights. Top of toilet cistern and foot of pedestal both broken. Extractor in bathroom not working, so whole suite misted up. Shower was good, with plenty of hot water,... More

We had a good stay - excellent value, cheerful staff and with a bus stop outside with zillions of buses. Comfortable rooms and bed - good shower. Happily recommend. Where Jcurlsalot got his/her opinion from is beyond me - must have been a different place - and obviously has time on his/her hands. Use them
