Hilton Manchester Airport, Haneda Room

I recently stayed at the DoubleTree by Hilton Manchester Airport and made two bookings. While the stay was comfortable overall, there were a few points worth noting: Pros: - The check-in experience was pleasant, with welcoming staff, cookies, and chocolate from the tree. - The rooms, while dated, were clean and well-maintained. The main bed was comfortable, and the climate control worked well. - The sofa bed, while soft and bouncy, was suitable for lighter guests or children. - The bathroom was clean, with well-stocked soaps and shampoos. - The 24-hour gym, although small, had good equipment and was a nice touch. - Checkout was straightforward and hassle-free. Cons: - It was frustrating to find that closer to the date, the price was about £15/night cheaper than what I had booked in advance. - The car park is £17/night, and when I arrived, it was full. I had to park all the way around in Zone 5. - The third-floor lift lobby smelled damp throughout the weekend, though this wasn’t an issue in the corridors or rooms. - There was inconsistency with offering water, as I didn’t receive it during my first booking but did on the second. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with good amenities, friendly service, and a great location for the airport. However, a few minor improvements, particularly with pricing and parking, would enhance the experience.
