I appreciated the trendy interior and friendly staff at Malmaison Manchester. but my stay had its hiccups. The breakfast was a bit hit or miss. though I enjoyed the fresh fruit and homemade muesli. The cold eggs Benedict really didn't hit the mark, and the promised discount for room issues never came through. Overall, it had potential but needs some polishing.

Rooms

My room was adequate. clean and comfortable, though the bathroom taps were frustratingly close to the sink. Unfortunately, my friends had to switch rooms because of temperature issues, which was concerning.

I had a pretty good time at Malmaison Manchester, but there were a few bumps along the way. The location is super convenient, just a hop from the train station and the city center. However, the room I stayed in had a bit of a tired feel to it, with some paint chips and an uncomfortable quilt. The staff were friendly, and the breakfast was decent, but some menu items I wanted were unavailable. Overall, I'd consider going back, but maybe with lower expectations.

However, the room was a bit compact and slightly noisy due to the traffic outside. Overall, it was a nice stay largely due to the quality of service and food.
