The hotel is situated just off the M56, one junction away from the main Manchester airport turn-off. It's not 'on the doorstep' but the transfer time is not more than 3 or 4 minutes and the extra bit of distance keeps it quieter. And that is a remarkable thing - an airport and a motorway outside and it's still quite quiet.

The hotel has rooms that are laid out around a courtyard. The one I stayed in was entered off an open balcony and was the sort of style you get in US motels (but a lot posher). The rooms are large and well equipped with pleasant bathrooms although colour schemes and furnishings have no doubt changed under Marriott.

Proximity to the airport means this is a popular choice for business meetings and the pool and fitness club are both very good and popular with local residents. There are two different restaurants and a couple of bars. If you want a high standard hotel close to the airport without having to be right at the airport, this is a good choice.]]> http://www.trivago.co.uk/manchester-38961/hotel/marriott-manchester-airport-47372/review-o366782 Tue, 19 May 2009 14:36:00 +0200 -woken three times the first night by drunks
