Beautiful boutique hotel in Manchester. Staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Gorgeous building and lovely rooms.
10 minute walk to the station and center of the city, but not too loud.
Friendly helpful staff, couldn’t do enough got us. Accommodation was high standard and clean. Staff were able to give good info and recommendations regarding local amenities. Would return and recommend :-)

Staff was lovely amd couldnt do enough for us, the amenities were beyond expectations and the free snacks and drinks were just the cherry on top of an amazing experience
Excellent location, friendly and accommodating staff, cute and comfortable room, great breakfast and bar. Highly recommend staying here if you're staying in the Northern Quarter!
Great staff, beautiful hotel, our 2nd visit to The Cow Hollow although it has been a few years but excellent to see that it is still as great as the first time. Really welcoming staff and all super helpful. Great location for shopping, great coffee and brunch spots nearby.
We booked this stay for our anniversary. From the moment we arrived, nothing was too much trouble. The lovely touches of our bags being taken to our room for us having left them earlier, the 5pm Prosecco and being able to have a cocktail brought to the room in the evening were all fab. We loved breakfast in bed and the choices suited us perfectly. The location is great - close to town and everything we wanted to do. We will are already planning to return next year!

Loved all the little touches. Prosecco and nibbles between 5-7, unlimited hit drinks and cookie at bedtime. Overall ambient in bar/foyer was great and room was lovely. Would definitely go back again.

All great, except tiled floor in room, could have definitely done with underfloor heating. Some very nice touches , excellent decor , and a nice atmosphere
All of the staff were fantastic, everyone was so friendly and keen to help, they really made us feel welcome. All of the little perks were a wonderful touch like free hot chocolate, cookies, prosecco and antipasti. Would definitely stay again
Very nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is unique with great interior. It's located a short walk from Manchester Piccadilly, with plenty of shops, bars and restaurants close by. The hotel bar also has very good drinks, and the breakfast delivered to the room is nice.
Lovely extra touches throughout our stay. Very helpful staff. Great location for walking into the city for shopping and a quick uber ride to the co-op live stadium
We visit Manchester regularly to visit our daughter. Perfect small, boutique hotel to be based in the city centre. Staff all lovely and so helpful. Great bars, restaurants and shops on your doorstep.
Great little hotel in the Northern Quarter. Loved our stay this weekend just gone. Staff were all really friendly, the entire place had a beautiful smell of amber throughout, and the use of the space was very impressive.
Appreciate that it is purely a space thing but somewhere to hang clothes would be the only improvement for me, there were hangers on the back of the door but no real space to put things.
If you aren't comfortable with the person you are travelling with this might not be the hotel for you. The smaller rooms mean you will be doing your business very close to the other person in the room. If you're comfortable with that then don't think twice about staying.
For fans of good beer as well, the Port Street Beer House round the corner is banging.
Citipark car park is a short walk away, very easily accessed and a hell of a lot cheaper than a train.
