Short stay before holiday
This was my first time staying at the Crowne Plaza hotel. It was a short stay before we went on holiday. The hotel was lovely, relaxed and comfortable. The staff were friendly and polite. Food was very good and the breakfast buffet was excellent, even for someone like me who doesn't always eat breakfast. If I flew from Manchester Airport again I would choose Crowne Plaza to stay again.

Great hotel for an airport stay
Marie was really helpful during checking giving us instructions on how to get to the hotel from the terminals. All the staff were really friendly and the hotel was clean. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast had a huge variety . There were extra options as well like omelettes and American pancakes. I would definitely stay in the hotel again!
