"Perfect one night pre holiday stay!!!"
lisalis115, 09 Septembre 2026

Stayed here the night of the 29th August in a triple room. The rate included 11 nights parking and taxi transfer to and from the airport!! The room was very clean all the staff we encountered were absolutely fantastic and always smiling We had the loaded nachos to share between 3 of us which were absolutely delicious the best nachos I've had anywhere !! Loved everything about this hotel will definitely stay here again when flying from Manchester !!

"Stay over before early morning flight"
rachbd44, 03 Septembre 2026

We stayed here the night before we flew. Couldn't fault it. The room was clean and comfortable had everything we needed. The bar area was nice and relaxing and the bar man was very welcoming. Will definitely use this hotel again for an early flight.

"Night away"
Clairefromskipton, 29 Août 2026

Place a bit run down but the lovely staff and breakfast made up for it.

"Taxi company poor"
George M, 24 Août 2026

Hotel is fine for a night stay before holiday, however the taxi company they use particularly when returning to Manchester are useless and you'll be left waiting in the airport car park for easily 30mins. Same happened last year and will stop me booking next year. Phoned the taxi company when they advise but still sat waiting for 30 mins.

"Coronation Street Tour"
Dawn W, 21 Juillet 2026

Stayed here as part of the Caledonian Coronation Street Tour. Staff friendly and welcoming and a special shout out to Dean who assisted us with specific dietry requirements and could not have been more helpful. Rooms clean with everything you needed including additional pillows and towels. Plenty of storage space.

"Dirty Room"
Denise A, 30 Juin 2026

This is definitely not a 4 star hotel. My sister and I went on a two day coach trip so this hotel was booked by the coach company. We checked in on 27th June and only stayed one night. Didn't have to wait long to check in, our room was on the first floor so we decided just to take the stairs as there were a few people waiting for the lift. There was a really bad smell in the stairwell. When we got in our room we noticed there was no air conditioning the window was open because it had been a hot day, we did find a fan in the wardrobe. The bathroom was clean but the room itself was not, definitely not 4 stars standard, cobwebs on the window and from the ceiling to a light, big stain on one of the beds base and no casters on the other side thick dust on the headboard and the radiator had its very own fur coat. We did sleep on top of the beds which were clean, The staff were really pleasant and friendly and the breakfast was also nice. We did show the lady on the reception the photos we took and she did say the housekeeping supervisor wasn't in on that day, so maybe they will get the rooms back to a better standard when the housekeeper returns.

"A must for Manchester Airport"
DayTrip00575025330, 18 Juin 2026

We often stay at this hotel the night before an early flight from Manchester Airport, and it continues to be a reliable choice. On our most recent stay, the room was quite warm when we arrived. There was a fan in the wardrobe, but we needed a second one. The lady on reception was extremely helpful and promptly brought another fan up to our room, which made a big difference and helped us have a comfortable night's sleep. The breakfast is always a highlight, with a very good selection of both hot and cold buffet items. The quality of the food is excellent, and it's a great way to start the day before travelling. Friendly service, comfortable accommodation, and a great breakfast mean we'll continue to stay here whenever we're flying from Manchester Airport.

"Friendly hotel by the airport"
666gavinp, 27 Mai 2026

The staff were all friendly and helpful. The room was clean and cool on a hot day. The planes from the nearby airport were barely noticeable. The garden was a pleasant area to relax in

"Central location for an over stop."
iris r, 19 Mai 2026

This is an Airport layover hotel only a few mins from Manchester airport. Comfortable clean rooms , comfy beds etc with decent breakfast / seletions but VERY POOR evening menu. Small selection not always well cooked. Can be mega busy at breakfast time with overnight guests preparing for early flights. Would not choose to stay here unless for the airport. Here as part of a weekend group away.

"Great find fo Manchester Airport"
Catullo99, 03 Mai 2026

Great hotel with park & fly packages. Good price for 7 nights and leave your car in their car park. Also provided taxis to and from the airport. Restaurant was a short on choice but what we had was good and served courteously. We will definitely recommend and use again.

"Great hotel in a very convenient location."
Finewinery2019, 27 Avril 2026

We regularly stay at this great hotel when we come up for the football matches. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are extremely clean, well equipped with a good showers and comfortable beds. There is a very good choice of quality hot and cold food at breakfast and dinner in the 180 restaurant. Also, you can have food in the bar area. The hotel has a lovely landscaped garden where you can eat, drink and relax. It is very conveniently located, near Manchester airport, the tram stations to the city centre and the edge of the Peak District.

"Dont park here"
Murray H, 14 Mars 2026

The hotel was great but after I left I git fined £60 for parking my rental car in the hotel car park plus a £50 admin fee from Europcar. My appeal was rejected and i got no support from the hitel management. So £110 to park for one night.

Owner Response, 14 Mars 2026

Hi 226murrayh, We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you during your recent stay with us. Our parking is outsourced to UKPC and there are signages being displayed that the parking is at charge. Regards Dilpreet Singh Hotel Manager

"Excellent hotel."

We stayed at this hotel the night before flying out of Manchester Airport. It was excellent for cost, comfort and cleanliness. Parking charges were very reasonable. Highly recommend.

"Pre holiday hotel"
Susan Y, 04 Mars 2026

Excellent hotel. Had an executive room which was lovely. Ate in the restaurant. Food was very nice and staff very helpful and efficiency. Can't really fault it. It is the second time we have stayed and will return.

"Enjoyable stay"
Rachel D, 01 Mars 2026

Enjoyable stay. Bed and facilities were clean and comfortable

"Very pleased with service"
Carol H, 24 Février 2026

We held a celebration of life after a family funeral. The service we had from the staff there was exceptional. They went above and beyond to cater for our needs and make it a special and individual occasion. Although my husband and I didn't stay on that occasion we have stayed several times previously and the same care and attention was always given with a friendly smile.

"Lovely hotel and staff"
Rebecca T, 14 Février 2026

Lovely hotel situated perfect for Manchester airport all friendly staff would recommend staying here.

"Reasonable for 1 night"
PaulYarm, 06 Février 2026

Room was a bit small and basic but comfortable. Food was OK too. Fine for a 1 night stop over if flying from Manchester but I wouldn't have liked to stay for a longer period.

"Great value for money"
Sharon H, 13 Janvier 2026

Excellent value , great staff and lovely rooms , would 100% recommend this hotel , staff are very accommodating too and ideal for airport stays

"Great 3 day over Christmas stay"
Karen H, 26 Décembre 2025

Clean and tidy hotel. Very friendly staff. Particularly the kitchen and food servers who worked very hard to ensure everyone had hot food despite the hot plates not working but Ben, the cook and others resolved this issue very well. The food was nice (typical bar menu) and breakfast was lovely a and good value for money. The room was comfortable and very comfy mattress but pillows were not comfortable but in fairness we could have asked for others. Otherwise everything we needed for our 3 day over Christmas stay. Parking was easy (remember to re-book each 24hr period inside the hotel for parking on site which is very close to the airport).

"Close to airport."
Uma K, 26 Décembre 2025

The walls are paper thin. So take some earbuds. Having a bad nights sleep before a flight is the worse. The room was small but clean and tidy. Staff very friendly. Got to pay for parking but they give you a discount code at reception. There was a lift but still a couple of steps up to our room which is annoying when you have heavy luggage. Easy drive to the airport so it was very convenient.

"Airport stopover"
johneG5057UI, 13 Décembre 2025

Stayed over before a flight great location but much nicer than the basic airport hotels that are literally only a mile down the road, great rooms newly refurbished, I was on the top floor so really quiet.

"very poor night sleep"
Matt J, 12 Décembre 2025

We stayed here for one night as a family. The idea was to get a good nights sleep before going to Lapland uk instead of drinking up in the morning which would have been a long day. Unfortunately the family rooms were directly above the function room where they were having a Christmas party. This Christmas party was like an Ibiza nightclub with loud music till midnight. We never would have booked this had we known that there was going to be loud music till midnight as we have 2 young kids, hence booking a family room. Wish we had stayed at home and drove up in the morning, we were all shattered the next day. It didn't help that a baby cried all night in the room next door. Not the hotels fault, but the walls are paper thin. Would not stay again, ever

Johnligh, 08 Décembre 2025

Shabby , dated room, heating did not work properly. Charge for parking for residents which I can understand if leaving car for the airport but not just one night . I've stayed there before and yet again machine didn't work properly and difficult to log your number in which makes check in a chore . Staff not very helpful.

"Parking Scam? + poor customer service"
yassu, 12 Novembre 2025

We stayed at the hotel as a family, as part of a package with airport parking. The hotel was comfortable, if a bit dated. The twin room was tiny, tired and on a busy road. - the double room was better. We ate in the restaurant, which was fairly standard 'pub grub' but the experience was dominated by a large group of german tourists who were eating from a buffet, making speeches etc. The garden was pleasant. Our stay at this hotel was significantly marred by issues with PARKING. We knew that we would we would be charged £3 per car for overnight parking but selected this option as it appeared cheaper than other airport hotels for the date. On arrival, the receptionist advised us that we would need to register both cars and pay the charges, which we did. However, after we arrived home, one car owner received a letter from UKPC, who operate the car park for the hotel, with a fine of £60! The reason given was that he had left the car park and returned - this was to drop our bags at 'Twilight check-in' at the airport. We anticipated that this was a mistake, since we had paid for 12 hours parking (and left at 4am) so contacted UKPC to clarify this. Without any explanation, the appeal was rejected and the fine remained. Getting nowhere with UKPC, I contacted Dilpreet Singh, the hotel manager, for his help. His response was that the car park was nothing to do with him, which I found strange, given that we were only using it as hotel guests. He said he had attempted to intervene, without success, but when asked to consider refunding the unfair fine, he did not respond. We have therefore ended up paying considerably more than we should have for an overnight stay. Given the poor customer service, we will not return. Having looked at other reviews, I can see that we are not the only hotel customers who have been unfairly charged by this company. So if you are thinking of using the hotel with a car, be very careful and don't expect any help from the manager if you are overcharged for parking!

"Excellent. Ticks all boxes."
Ranno3K, 08 Novembre 2025

Excellent airport overnight base. Restaurant is good, nice bar area. Staff excellent. We got a nice newly refurbed room on the top floor. Slept like a log. The breakfast buffet was superb - better quality and choice than a premier inn.

"Highly recommend from a frequent traveller"
aaronw851, 28 Octobre 2025

Travelling for business from Bournemouth. Lovely hotel and good amenities. Food was on point and especially the staff here. Very welcoming and professional. Catering for all needs and requirements. Special shout out for the bar staff! Will definitely book, stay and dine here again! 10/10

"Cold unpleasent stay."
Chris C, 27 Octobre 2025

Location good if you need to travel from the airport. Parking was good and a decent price. Rooms were clean. Cleaning staff left window open while it was f-ing cold outside. Checked in to the room it was cold. Radiator didn't work. Went to the reception - they said it is my fault of not using the radiator properly. Second time I need to wait longer. After about 5 hours and my third approach - still my fault and can't help. Offered to send someone up in half an hour. At 11:00pm someone showed up fiddled with the radiator and said lets wait another 15 minutes. No change. Called me up and said sorry we are fully booked. Sorry mate. If you need a blanket let me know. Asked for a blanket. Ended up wearing 3 layers, my scarf and my winter hat. Bathroom ventilation didn't stop and was very loud. Pipes in the room had a loud whisle noise. Got like 4 hours of sleep and a sore throat. Breakfast was ok.

"Not great."
CorbridgeD, 20 Octobre 2025

Cleanliness not good enough, steps near our room have clearly not been hoovered for a long time. Very dated in places and fusty smells in the corridors. Lift floor dirty and food waste was present during our stay. We upgraded our original booking to a room with a balcony that was not swept. Curtains dirty. Poor printed off three course menus. Litter bins in park and fly car park were full and litter was falling on the floor. Car park not very secure as gate in car park to building next door was left open probably by the gardeners apparently when I raised upon checking out.

"Glad it was BW Plus……"
GreyPound_9, 16 Octobre 2025

Disappointing stay which had promised more. Went here as part of a reunion of longstanding, old friends. Parking was good and there seemed to be plenty. We arrived early, but were speedily and pleasantly given our room key. The room reeked of pine air freshener - not sure if this was the usual cleaning standard, if someone had smoked in the room, or if someone had spilt a bottle of freshener liquid. The smell had, thankfully, dissipated by morning. The double room had been (apparently) redesignated from a twin. The king sized bed was clean and comfortable-but only one pillow each for us. The fixed bedside table was a good stretch from the side of the bed because of the new arrangement of bed. Illuminated wardrobe with safe, iron, ironing board and fan was capacious enough for one night, with height enough to hang clothes. The bathroom seemed to have been refurbished, with modern LED lighting and a heated mirror. The over bath shower was a MIRA Excel thermostatic unit. After asking, we were given extra pillows and an anti slip mat for the bath. The “heated” towel rail wasn't. Back in the bedroom, an early autumnal chill revealed that the bedroom radiator was a cold ornament. Reception suggested that we “turn it on” (something which we had, surprisingly, already tried). Then the suggestion was wait a while “for the heat to come through” (we HAD waited over an hour at this point). Her final suggestion was “if it's still not working at bedtime, we can think about changing your room”. Funnily, we didn't fancy having a sociable reunion, followed by a moonlit room change. Fortunately, we didn't fancy having have a reasonable night's sleep. Breakfast the next morning was ok. There was a good selection of fruit-both fresh and tinned, but a small choice of cereal. The hot table was of mediocre quality. Coffee was weak and only “hot water” (not boiling!) was available for tea lovers - decaffeinated tea was there along with other infusions.

"Close to Manchester Airport ideal for holiday stay."
Mad-Maz999, 22 Septembre 2025

Great location for Manchester Airport. Picking up family from terminal 1. Booked direct and had a bargain with free breakfast and balcony room. Fab clean room that had usual tea, coffee, toiletries, good wifi and a balcony overlooking the gardens with table and chairs. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was buffet style with lots of choice. Parking for 24 hours was extra but about £4 which was a bargain and plenty of spaces. Had a decent bar, serving food and lounge area. Also gardens and outdoor seating area. Set in good location & village of Handforth. Turn left out of hotel and a straight walk for a few minutes to a nice couple of pubs, great greek/Turkish restaurants, few shops and a Tesco express. We will definitely stay here again and park the car when flying from Manchester as it has very reasonable rates for longer stays. Highly recommend.

"A one night business stay with work colleagues."

A single night stay for work, I have stayed at this hotel many times before and never been disappointed, the hotel has a comfortable, clean and has a friendly vibe with a nice bar and restaurant area. The rooms are well appointed, comfortable and clean.

"Old rooms, predatory parking management and fines"
Jonny R, 04 Septembre 2025

The rooms were fine albeit dated. The biggest frustration, however, was not only having to pay for parking (why is this not just part of the room rate?), but receiving 2 separate £100 parking fines (leaving and coming back apparently counted as a separate session), despite having paid at reception using the discount code. Having the receipt allowed me to contend 1 of the fines, but the other was unsuccessful (with no reason given). I won't be staying here again while it still uses a predatory parking company. The nearby Premier Inn (SK9 3EW) has rooms nicer than here (and cheaper), is just as convenient, and has free on site parking.

Owner Response, 04 Septembre 2025

Hi 615jonnyr, Thank you for your valuable feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.

Martin B, 25 Août 2025

Our second year visiting this hotel before catching a flight and yet again another 5* stay. The hotel was super responsive, the staff really friendly and the value for money superb. Nice little treat in the room to mark a special occasion which we really appreciated so thank you once again! Breakfast was great- lots of choice, everything and more from a buffet breakfast and all served hot! Cant't really find a better hotel to stay in the area and will be back when around there again in the future.

Pete P, 20 Août 2025

Just finished my second stay within a week here and can wholeheartedly recommend. Great location, gorgeous grounds / garden (that you can enjoy a meal / drinks in - great on a warm summer evening), rooms were spotless and the staff are great - all very welcoming and extremely helpful. I feel Dean in particular (who runs the hotel bar) deserves a special mention. Clearly a great character who the locals know and love but also someone who is prepared to go out of their way to make guests feel as comfortable as possible. When he wasn't behind the bar serving and chatting to other guests he was going out of his way to help me with various other things, one example being going into the kitchen himself late one (very busy) evening to make me some food because the chef had finished for the night. The world needs more people like this! Overall two throughly enjoyable stays and genuinely find it hard to fault.

EmergingCyclogenesis, 15 Août 2025

I have stayed here before and the experience has been positive but, in this warm weather, the non air conditioned rooms, with only a tiny window opening were suffocating. I had to sleep with a wet towel on me to keep cool. A shame as everything else was pretty good

"Fawlty Towers without the comedy"
chriscU8970XB, 29 Juillet 2025

Stifling and dirty rooms with staff overwhelmed by kids party. Meals very expensive. Lack of accountability. Rooms were stifling hot. Unresponsive management. Unresponsive to online feedback. Nail clippings on the floor. But, appart from that, in all fairness, pretty mediocre. How bad does a hotel have to be to cancel and to drive elsewhere to stay in an AirBnB? This bad

Hi Chris, Thank you for your review. Your review has been responded to on booking.com wherein we have offered you the option of a credit in a future stay as a gesture. We do not have aircon in the hotel and it is very well stated online and we do provide fans on days when the temperature is high.

"Fantastic value for money!"
FatWallet, 27 Juillet 2025

Chose this hotel by chance on a visit home to see folks in MCR and eat the newly opened Jerk Junction in Wilmslow. The hotel is fantastic value. We were upgraded to an exec room - which was massive, with a kingsize bed, power shower and posh coffee machine. Breakfast was 1st class and 24hr parking was just £2.45! Hats off to the fantastic receptionist Veronica - friendlly and really helpful. We shall be back.

"An excellent option for close to Manchester Airport"

An excellent option for people travelling from Manchester Airport. Friendly staff and good conditions. I will gladly use it again in future. There is an option for long-term parking, and it is more cost-effective than parking at the airport.

"Fantastic Hotel and Staff"
MrsCazLewis, 30 Décembre 2024

Our flight got cancelled after waiting in the airport for 8hrs so my husband booked this hotel and we jumped in a taxi and went straight over! The staff were so friendly and helpful! The receptionist had all our details sorted and got us checked in in no time and said she could order us a taxi for the following day back to the airport she was really helpful and lovely and friendly! The room was lovely and comfortable with a nice coffee machine and nice toiletries lovely big shower and a comfortable bed! We went down to the bar for a night cap where the bartender was lovely and chatty really nice before heading to bed! Our rescheduled flight wasn't until 7pm following night so we relaxed in our room till 11am check out time then the hotel let us sit in their lovely comfortable lounge area to wait rather than having to wait at the airport! We ordered a lovely lunch from the restaurant again the bartender staff were lovely and the food was delicious before heading back to the airport in the taxi organised by the friendly staff! We were disappointed our flight got cancelled but the hotel and staff made it a very enjoyable stopover so thanks so much! Would defo stay here again without hesitation .

"Great overnight stay"
Liz J, 30 Décembre 2024

Great overnight stay prior to flying to Spain on Xmas Eve - it's only 3 or 4 miles from the airport. It worked out cheaper to stay here and park at the airport than doing it as one booking on the likes of Holiday Extras etc. Second time we've done it recently and will stay again in February. Spotlessly clean and comfortable room. Decent bar and restaurant

"Xmas afternoon tea"
Toni N, 14 Décembre 2024

We took 13 of our members from Timeout Group Handforth ( a hub for adults with disabilities) and had a Christmas afternoon tea Saturday 14/12/24 can't thank The Pinewood enough for a brilliant afternoon tea and for all there care and excellent attentive service, the food was amazing, the staff wonderful, all the extra's hats, blowers, crackers made it such a special Xmas experience for our members. Nothing was to much trouble, thank you Pinewood staff for wonderful service.

"A good hotel but rooms a little tired."
R5309LDsaraj, 25 Novembre 2024

The hotel is in a good position close to Manchester airport and Handforth centre. Staff are excellent,kind and considerate. Onsite parking is a good bonus. Stayed in a double room, quite nice but really required modernisation, new carpets, furniture and bathroom all functional but outdated. The executive rooms are much nicer if you can afford them. Breakfast is really nice and tasty .

"Horrible"
Jade P, 18 Novembre 2024

Cold food, charged me for drinks I never had. I had 4 points trying to charge me for 5 and I was drinking beer at 5.50 cobra. Said I was drinking Madri at 5.80 a pint. Staff roud and had to wait at bar for 10 mins to get a beer. Staff looked like was drunk or on drugs. Staff using fowl words at bar around guests. People smoking drugs in garden at back of hotel. Staff didn't care or say anything when another guest complained the staff seemed to know the person doing the drugs.

Getaway17045982032, 12 Octobre 2024

I can honestly say that I was blown away by the staff at this hotel. Reception and bar staff went above and beyond to help my family and made us feel like nothing was too much trouble and all this while dealing with 2 or 3 conferences on the go. I will definitely be returning. Food was delicious and room comfy.

OMG, what can I say, from walking in, everyone is so welcoming. My room Number is 133 and it is a fantastic room, please see my images. The food was amazing and Bobby the server, exceptional. I thought as this was classed as an airport hotel it would be a little under par, I was sooooo wrong!! Would I stay again… 1 million %

"Avoid"
fona126, 07 Octobre 2024

The room I stayed in 118 - is in desperate need of complete renovation. It is very shabby and looks like it has not been updated for at least 30 years. The bedding was clean but the mattress is sagging and the furniture was very dated and shabby and taking up far too much space in such a small room. There is was no power point close to the bed which is not helpful in this modern age when everyone is charging mobiles on a regular basis. I can't remember when I last saw a hotel room with a shower over the bath, especially with a basic curtain. The plastic shower controls are yellow with age and I was concerned about the age of the plumbing, so opted not to use the shower. The standard of accommodation that I saw was poor and I would not recommend anyone to stay there. I would say that the housekeeping staff have their work cut out trying to make the rooms looks habitable. If I was not in a hurry to get to a surprise birthday party that afternoon. I would probably not have stayed and looked for alternative accommodation.

Owner Response, 07 Octobre 2024

Hi fona126, Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused to you during your recent stay with us. We have noted your feedback and will certainly take corrective measures to showcase improvements. We do have different room categories in our 3 floors - 3rd floor being the newest of all. Request you to give us one more opportunity and it will be my pleasures to upgrade you to a higher category. I will personally ensure that you have a seamless stay with us .

"Complete waste of money."
Neilensee, 02 Octobre 2024

Complete waste of money. Paid £150 for a room that when I arrived, had been allocated directly above the function room where a wedding reception disco was taking place. I was then told that the hotel was full so there was no possibility to change room and it was too late to find alternative acommodation nearby so I had no alternative than to listen to loud music rather than try to sleep. Looking at previous reviews, I now notice that this has happened more than once before so I wouldn't take the risk again. Next time I think I'll spend the £150 on a tent and sleep at the end of the runway at Manchester airport next door.

"Wedding reception."
BenjaminONeill, 26 Septembre 2024

I would like to say massive thank-you to all the Pinewood staff for accommodating us for our wedding reception (24.09.24). Our room was clean and very relaxing. We would like to give a huge shout-out to Dean who helped massively, we couldn't fault his work. Our day ran very smoothly with very little issues if any. Breakfast was very nice and we enjoyed very much. All in all, extremely pleased and we'll be returning and recommending this establishment. Once again thank you for making our day memorable and special. Thank you. Mr and Mrs Baddeley-O'Neill ?

Owner Response, 26 Septembre 2024

Beverly P, 21 Septembre 2024

"Very noisy"
siobhand734, 15 Septembre 2024

Very noisy, walls seem extremely thin and the doors slam really loud, there was a wedding on till 12 which wasn't really an issue, but the guests on the same floor were extremely loud banging doors till 1 in the morning. The bathroom ceiling was mouldy. The tassimo machine wasn't clean and only had one pod for 2 guests.

"Superb customer service!"
lCumbrialor, 08 Septembre 2024

Overnight stay prior to a flight as handy for the airport and great value and our stay was excellent from check-in onwards. Yes the hotel is a little dated but a stay is about the staff and your experience - ours was excellent. The hotel is easy to find, the lady who checked us in (afternoon of 8.09.24) was professional and efficient whilst being warm and friendly. The staff throughout our stay were exceptional, the guys in the restaurant were excellent - the tall slim chap who brought the drink so welcoming and efficient - they know how to run a restaurant! Great food too and M'd had everything running smoothly. The bed was very comfy and we both slept really well. The staff ensure you have a lovely stay, everything is done with a smile, a kind word and a level of customer service seldom experienced today. Excellent find and we will certainly return.

"Weekend Treat"
Voyager277858, 04 Septembre 2024

"Filthy- really filthy. Walked out"
MrsKatieL, 01 Septembre 2024

We booked a family room for a few nights whilst our home was being refurbished. I asked for a low floor accessible room but was given one up two flights of stairs with an extra stair section to access. The stairs were filthy. The room was last decorated in the 70s, poky, absolutely boiling hot (no air con) and filthy. Hair bubbles / pins and hair on the floor. Cobwebs everywhere. Dusty tables. Stains all over the floor and walls. The radiator had clearly leaked and gone mouldy on the carpet. The bathroom was dated with mould, cracked floor tiles and the entire room stank. Obviously we didn't stay. No other rooms were available so it was back down the crisp covered stairs to reception who could refund us and instead sent an email (copying me in) to the manager and stated it might take a month! That was three weeks ago and I never did get a reply, apology or refund. I've had to open a case with my bank. The entire hotel needs a deep clean, update and a course in customer care for the staff.

Owner Response, 01 Septembre 2024

Hi Mrs KatieL, I regret that you did not have a seamless experience during your recent stay with us. Although it is our endeavour to provide resolution to the issues , I believe my colleague did show you another family room but it was also not to your liking. I can understand your disappointment. I can offer you an upgrade on your next stay or a discounted room rate however if you wish to claim a refund, I request you to escalate with our Head office at [email protected]. We appreciate your business and would definitely try to do what we can in our capacity to retain your confidence in us. Regards Dilpreet Singh Operations Manager

"Pretty pleasant stay"
TaniaZaynab, 31 Août 2024

The staff has been friendly and kind, and the hotel was generally clean. The most spacious room was designed for a disabled person, so bathroom was uncomfortable for us. Also, it was a shame that we were not offered anything from the hotel, which would normally be the case for genius members of booking.com.

Owner Response, 31 Août 2024

Hi Tania, Thank you for your valuable feedback. We really appreciate your patronage. I have noted your feedback and will definitely take it up with the Team so take the relevant corrective measures.

A9278NYdavidm, 27 Août 2024

Should really be 3.5 stars as there were plenty of positives. Staff super friendly and helpful, public areas of the hotel were nice, modern, clean. The food at breakfast was pretty good as well. The bedrooms were rather tired though, this was especially true of the bathrooms and wooden fittings (wardrobes desk etc) which felt like they were overdue some sprucing up/ redecoration

Great hotel, booked last minute before jetting off honeymoon- used as airport base. Upgraded for free to a bigger room- really appreciated! Thank you. The staff were really friendly, check in was quick, lots of parking, great location. The room was huge, big comfy bed and a big clean bathroom. Hot night so the fan definitely helped! We ate in the hotel- food very nice and priced well. No complaints! Would definitely stay again- great work!

"Very nice, but disappointed as refused food in bar at such an early time"
John F, 06 Juillet 2024

Very good staff, decent stay, park and taxi deal but disappointed as chef refused to cook simple bar food at 8.40pm after a long day travelling. We ate in town, 5 mins walk away at a Greek restaurant which was amazing. Room was very nice, breakfast was excellent but being refused food at such an early time is baffling. We spent lot of money to stay, would have spent more to eat, drink, wine etc but being refused is unacceptable at such a time. UK really need to step up to 21st century tourism. We would stay again but eat elsewhere in evening as so many great options close by, its hotels loss.

Owner Response, 06 Juillet 2024

Hi John F, Thank you for providing your candid feedback. I have noted your feedback and will liaise with our Kitchen Team to understand the cause for it unless it was something technical.

"Poor food selection in hotel for Gluten free disappointed with return taxi not arriving despite 3 phone calls"
alwaysforthepeople, 26 Juin 2024

Stopped here before holiday as we had an early flight so took advantage of the park and taxi service. Lady on reception desk was very nice but really struggled with English making the check in and arrangements for taxis hard work ? really does it have to be this hard ? Meal the night before was underwhelming very limted options for gluten free quality was average we are now in 2024 and you can only offer 2 things gluten free is pretty dam poor allergies is a pretty important thing for a lot of people and your missing a trick not addressing it Early morning taxi to airport was swift and no problems We were given a phone number to call on way back to call for our return taxi this was diabolical 4 calls from arrivals to say we were waiting and took just under 40min for the taxi to arrive no text message of car details so we had no idea which taxi we were looking for ? on a good note car was safe and sound at hotel for the week. What a shame hotel is pretty nice but things like the restaurant and the poor organisation of return taxi let it down big time

"Very warm room; wedding reception seemed to be a surprise to managers"
BigWoo, 25 Juin 2024

I stayed here for one night ahead of business in the area the next morning. The car park is large, although the promised EV points were nowhere to be seen, in spite of two laps of the site! It turns out that they are there, but the receptionist advised me not to use them because of the cost, being way in excess of even the most expensive motorway service station chargers. Downstairs was lovely, with beautiful air-conditioning and decor. The room, however, was small, and very, very hot. There was a small window which opened, but only slightly, and a small desk fan, which just about stretched alongside the bed. With the window open, noise from the wedding reception on the floor below was very audible into the night. I ate dinner in the restaurant, and service from the restaurant waitresses was excellent. However, several dishes were unavailable, and even some which were, were not as described (Malaysian chicken curry was actually chicken tikka, for example)! The main problem with dinner, though, was that drinks service was very slow. My first drink took 20 minutes to arrive, with the second taking over 30, and even then only after chasing it up. When I did so, I was reassured that I had been charged for it, which wasn't a major concern, but told that the bar was busy because of the wedding reception. Presumably, a wedding reception is a known event, and organised in time to ensure that staffing is available to keep the hotel operating? This is potentially a good hotel, but one to which I will be very unlikely to return, given that the reason for choosing it was effectively not an option, given the quality of the rooms, and some of the service.

"Outstanding & 10 mins from the airport"
MarekLontour, 17 Juin 2024

Stayed for 1 night before our flight and it was a good choice as in the morning we were at the airport in 10 minutes. Bedroom was a good size , huge comfortable bed , a tv that actually works and drinks facilities. We also had dinner here which was priced fairly and good portion size. Breakfast buffet was nice with really good bacon and sausage. What made our short stay even better was the staff , which made us feel very welcome. We'll be stopping here again in July before our next break. No hesitation in recommending.

I stayed for 5 Nights while visiting my kids. From the moment I arrived I was made to feel welcome. My single room was a little on the small side but it was clean, warm and well equipped.i ate most of my meals in the restaurant or bar and they were all excellent. The hotel is only a 10 minute drive from the airport so many of the guests were using it as a staging post on their way abroad.

"Good hotel near Manchester Airport"
Silvia_Rick, 30 Avril 2024

Clean and cheap hotel not far from Manchester Airport (15£ ride with Uber). Comfy room and nice staff. I recommend it

"Disappointed"
tracybH5838AV, 07 Avril 2024

Firstly I would like to say our room was lovely , it was very big , clean and warm. Unfortunately we were kept awake by someone shouting, swearing , banging doors in a room close to ours. It spoilt our stay. I mentioned it to reception the following morning to be told we should of rang reception when it was happening ! Not the best customer service to be honest. Breakfast was disappointing , hot drinks there are now out of a machine which is slow so you wait your turn while your breakfast goes cold as there's only one machine and a lot of guests. Breakfast food was okay but for the price having tinned fruit and not fresh fruit isn't acceptable. Jams are now in small plastic packets not jars. Black pudding was undercooked , beans cold. Very disappointed and unfortunately has changed not for the better. Bobby who works on the bar is very hard working and very helpful and polite.

Arabicatheart, 25 Février 2024

We always stay at the Best Western Plus Pinewood Hotel. It's a brilliant location if we need to use their Park and Fly option so we can leave our car here whilst we are away. Their package includes taxi to and from the Airport. The hotel is close to the Motorway and also Handforth Railway station. Their gardens are beautiful to sit in during spring and summer months. There are also local shops and eateries that you can walk to. We often meet our family who all live in that area,

mandswhite65, 10 Février 2024

Easy check in, free car parking. Staff were polite, helpful and provided excellent customer service. Room was large, quiet and warm, bed was very comfortable. Easy access to airport from hotel. Restaurant was good food and service for evening meal. Would recommend and use again

"Mum's birthday treat."
tinsel1965, 05 Février 2024

I booked a family and accessibility room to celebrate my mums birthday. Been here before. The staff are polite, professional and helpful. The rooms are clean and tidy. We enjoyed the free Total Fitness day passes, mum enjoyed swimming, sauna, steam room. Then a good nights sleep with yummy breakfast. What a treat. I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend you to treat your loved ones and yourself here, great relaxing mini break. Value for money. Go on you deserve it.

"never again"
jillmA8953JM, 23 Janvier 2024

terrible , creaky bed , and floor boards, every time you moved, noisy neighbours shouting in the corridors at 12 am in and out different rooms, no consideration fro other guests , could not wait to leave, so left at 7am.

"Wonderful Service / Inclusive Hotel"
sylvia6moore, 22 Janvier 2024

Staff wonderful to our elderly aunt and uncle who were staying in their 90s. Great hotel that was able to meet their disabled needs. Restaurant food was fantastic! All staff were friendly and helpful. Great location!

"A Pinewood Regular"
adamburnham2024, 18 Janvier 2024

The staff are all great, parking is good, nice garden and local facilities are walkable. Breakfast has gone downhill with yoghurts and continental meat options removed. However the hot stuff is really spot on. Rooms are retro but clean and workable. Bathrooms immaculate and are not showing there age.

"Nice hotel"
HappyHods, 16 Janvier 2024

Happy to stay in this comfortable, friendly and easily accessible hotel. Lots of parking in a safe and secure car park. Friendly staff on reception and in the bar/restaurant. Always happy to go back when I am away on business in Manchester.

"Great sleep, bad eat"
jso5a, 28 Septembre 2023

Our room was large and the bed was very comfortable. Close location to the airport made our early morning departure easy. The only problem encountered was the food. Our dinner salads were laden with grit. My flatbread brisket entree had spinach sprinkled over it, and the grit from the greens covered everything. Couldn't eat much of anything. The food preparers need to rinse all greens THOROUGHLY before serving. This was the worst meal of our trip.

Owner Response, 28 Septembre 2023

We stayed the night before our flight from Manchester airport. All staff are friendly and efficient. The hotel is clean and the bar food was excellent. It was convenient and great value for money. Would definitely stay here again.

"Pretty average experience"
Riverside_Red, 13 Septembre 2023

Stayed at the hotel for an evening before flying out to Greece, the check in experience was OK, and the room was OK too, however nothing to write home about. However the food in the restaurant was terrible, we ate from the "a'la carte" and paid £75 for poor fish and chips a falafel burger and a bottle of cheap red wine, after starting with frozen calamari. Mind the bus load for pensioners who were eating from the buffet were treated to chicken nuggets (gujons?), broccoli and chips.....which looked disgusting. Breakfast wasn't much better with everything seeming to be of the lowest quality it was possible to obtain. The staff were pretty much all miserable, and looked as if they didn't want to be there. Back to the Premier Inn, normally a much better experience all round.

Owner Response, 13 Septembre 2023

Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent stay with us Riverside _Red, although we regret to hear that your experience was not up to your expectations.

Your comments about the quality of the food, as well as the service, have been noted, and we will address this issue with our kitchen and service teams to ensure improvements are made.

Your satisfaction is important to us, and we value your input as we work to enhance our guest experience.

"One night stay"
andrew g, 10 Septembre 2023

The hotel was fine and the room was perfectly adequate. It was a room for a disabled guest which was neither requested nor needed but still comfortable. It was next to the lift and the noise of people using the lift during the night was very disturbing.

"Lovely room"
Julia893, 09 Août 2023

Nice room, clean and a comfy bed. Tea, coffee, milk, sugar and biscuits. Hairdryer and toilettries. Lovely breakfast, lots of choice, various cereals, juice, fruit, pastries and full English. The only downside was we were in room 119 and heard the lift pinging throughout the night/early hours of the morning.

Owner Response, 09 Août 2023

Many thanks Julia893 for taking the time to review your stay with us and I am delighted to read your fantastic comments about our breakfast offering. I hope that we will have the opportunity to welcome you back to the hotel again in the future.

"Pleasant and acceptable"
staffsjc, 08 Août 2023

Very easy to find. Good spacious Car Parking. Reception speedy and friendly. Rooms quite modern with adequate tea and coffee making facilities- including tasty biscuit. Bathroom a tad cramped- toilet up against towel rail but water hot and fairly immediate. The shower is in the bath and the downside is the bath is too high to both access and get out. Grab handle not in the best position. The Hotel is near the Airport and I did hear aircraft noise in the early hours. The Hotel has free Wi-Fi which is fine but no internet connection. When I enquired I was given the password for the Conference Wi-Fi Which was ok Good bar and Restaurant with plenty of space. Breakfast was good with everything on offer. The breakfast staff were eager to clear. I got up to get a tea refill and when I returned to my table it had been cleared including my half eaten toast

Owner Response, 08 Août 2023

Many thanks Staffsjc for taking the opportunity to leave a review of your recent stay at the hotel. I am pleased to hear that you found the hotel conveniently located and were able to get checked in efficiently by our friendly team. I am sorry to hear that the noise from the aircraft disturbed your sleep in the early hours of the morning though; normally as we are a little further away from the airport than other hotels, we only get a minimal amount of aircraft noise. I hope that we will have the opportunity to welcome you back to the hotel again in the future.

"Wedding"
Wanderer15381653993, 02 Août 2023

The whole wedding was a shambles the wedding planner was not in that day . The other staff members had no idea and did not guide our guests.to the complimentary drinks area. All staff were rude and obnoxious . Particularly the woman behind reception when i asked dor a room for my.disabled aunt to be closer to the lift. The manager was another rather small.rude unhelpful man. I would advise against anyone having their special day at this establishment

Owner Response, 02 Août 2023

Thank you for reviewing your stay with us Wanderer15381653993. Firstly, allow me to apologise for the problems you experienced during your special day, this is disappointing to hear as we always want to ensure that all our guests, especially those choosing the hotel to host their special day with us. Please note that we will treat these comments with the utmost importance and will be speaking with the team regarding your concerns and would be happy to meet with you to discuss further.

"Worth booking"
IPMSouthYorkshire, 30 Juillet 2023

Stayed prior to flying from the airport the following morning. Free parking for overnight stay (enter your car details on a computer next to reception) and if you book directly with the hotel you can pay for longer term parking as a package including airport drop off/pick up as part of the service. Rooms clean and pretty standard size although some may think a little dated but don't let that put you off as its excellent value for money and about 3 miles from the airport. We never ate in the hotel as the restaurant menu was the same as the bar menu which was slightly disappointing, so we ate at a local greene king pub the Waggon and Horses which was a 10 minute walk away but I wouldn't recommend eating there unless you want cheap but not cheerful! Reception kindly gave us a breakfast to go in a bag that we were checking out before 7am, with a coffee or tea to go, which was appreciated. Be aware the hotel requires prior notice the night before for that order. Would we use again? Yes, although next time I'll leave my car there for the duration of our holiday and use the hotels drop off and pick up service.

"Pleasant hotel, nice room and gardens."
The_Armo, 22 Juillet 2023

Stayed for one night in business. Hotel staff very nice. Parking included and plenty of space, just whether details when you get to reception as it's a pay for parking car park. Restaurant was very good and no complaints there. Room was nice but very warm. Safety latches on window meant you couldn't open it for fresh air other than one inch. There was a fan that didn't help. Bathroom ok too. Would stay again no worries.

Owner Response, 22 Juillet 2023

Thank you The_Armo for taking the time to leave a review of your recent stay at Best Western Plus Pinewood on Wilmslow hotel.

"Superb Hotel near Manchester Airport"
agbird, 21 Juillet 2023

We chose this hotel because of its location close to my Brother in Law. It was a good choice. The Staff were excellent and well trained. The food was OK and we dined there each of the five nights we slept in the Hotel. We would thoroughly recommend the Best Western Pinewood Hotel

bettyruss, 17 Juillet 2023

My family stayed at this lovely hotel on their stay/flight package and it's amazing! Easy hotel to get to, a lovely friendly welcome, nice surroundings and a great price to stay over with parking for the duration of your holiday abroad and transfers to and from Manchester airport. Rooms are dated but clean and comfortable. Highly recommended and will return.

Stayed for one night prior to airport departure. Bedrooms are super clean with everything you need. Quite night sleep and comfortable bed food and beverages good choices. Service by staff excellent . Can highly recommend.

"Close it down and sort it out"
CagedNomad, 02 Février 2023

The hotel is in a great location close to the airport, although the taxi the hotel booked for us charged us £25 for the privilege of driving us down the road… Inside, the bar area is quite nice and the staff were friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the floor we stayed on was damp and stank. Water was actively pouring through the ceiling. I cannot understand why you'd have guests staying anywhere near this - the place should be closed while it's fixed. We woke up with the sniffles, unsurprisingly, after a terrible night's sleep due to the smell and noise from neighbouring rooms.

Owner Response, 02 Février 2023

Dear cagednomad Thank you for leaving your feedback following your recent stay with us. Being familiar with the area that you have mentioned, the recent cold temperatures that we experienced have damaged the roof covering in part. We have attempted to repair but this has not resolved the issue. As a result and our continuous commitment to invest in the hotel we have recently authorised the replacement of one of the roof areas which is impacting the hotel negatively. Of course, this does take time to orchestrate and for the repairs to take place but they will happen as soon as possible. Once complete we will certainly be addressing any repairs or affected areas internally. We hope we get the opportunity to welcome you back to the Pinewood in the future to see the improvements that have been made Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Don't bank on a good night's sleep."
oread_uk, 23 Janvier 2023

The room was fine - a little dated and very few plug sockets- but it was clean, spacious and had everything I needed. I slept ok on the Friday night (although the bed wasn't very firm). Saturday night was a different matter though as there was a wedding downstairs and my room was over the venue where the disco was playing. I could hear the music and DJ till around 2 in the morning. Then there was the constant coming and going of guests with doors slamming and people having long conversations in the corridors. I was here on a course and to then have to undertake work with so little sleep was very challenging. I did fill in the Best Western feedback form but have had no response. My recommendation would be to find out whether they have an event on before you book and definitely ask for a quiet room away from the function rooms.

Owner Response, 23 Janvier 2023

Dear oread_uk Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. I am sorry that we were not able to meet your expectations during your stay. We do try and allocate rooms away from events when we are aware that guests are not attending them. I have raised this with my team for improvement and training. We do hope we get the opportunity to welcome you back to the Pinewood again Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Excellent fly park and stay"
donkeydoodoo, 23 Décembre 2022

Best hotel we've stayed out prior to flying from Manchester to the Caribbean. Reasonably priced with 15 days parking and shuttle service included. Food is of a very high standard in fact excellent and the service. Rooms very comfy with good facilities- normally never ever sleep the night before a flight - slept like a log here. Really enjoyed the stay and receptionist really helpful and friendly will definitely go back. The only negative point was the over all cost included private transfers to and from the airport - taxi did turn up and collect us on way back but this was not covered by the hotel and I had to pay although I'm sure if a called the hotel they would look to rectify this as we are a party of 8 and will be looking to rebook for next years annual holiday. Don't let this minor point put you off it really was a great stay and really clean too

Owner Response, 23 Décembre 2022

Dear donkeydoodoo (great username by the way), Thank you for your feedback following your Park & Fly stay with us. Apologies regarding the taxi service on the return journey, we have addressed this directly with the taxi firm that we use. We do hope you choose to stay with us again on your next holiday out of Manchester. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Fantastic as usual!"
AmandaL4803, 05 Décembre 2022

We love this hotel, so this year we booked one of the party night for 14 of us. We all had a fantastic night. Food was amazing and we danced the night away. 7 of us stayed the night, booking 4 rooms. These were a mixture of twins and doubles. The rooms are great value for money and beds are so comfortable. We can't fault anything and the breakfast next money ended a great night's stay. Only issue we had was noise from people above one of the rooms during the night, but that's not the hotels fault.

"DO NOT BOOK WEEKENDS - ROOM BOUNCING WITH TUNES UNTIL MIDNIGHT"
michaelmZ1304FA, 03 Décembre 2022

DO NOT BOOK ON WEEKENDS. Booked for Friday & Sat before a flight Sunday morning. Function on downstairs Friday and two of them on Saturday. Room right above the function room and the DJ pumped tunes to 12pm. Mentioned it on Saturday and were told we couldnt move rooms because there were no more double rooms without upgrading. SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SELL ROOMS WHEN THERES GOING TO BE MUSOC BLASTING.

"Dine and drink somewhere else"
markturner2022, 02 Décembre 2022

Great hotel, great staff, secure car parking and immaculate rooms and housekeeping. There is even a great choice of breakfast fare, all top quality. Things awry when it comes to the restaurant for dinner: terrible menu, silly prices and for most of the main courses you need to pay extra for the vegetables. Starters, including soup, start at £7. To top it all, the only Cider to be had was Magners, which is fine if you like Magners, but who does? So, stop in the hotel by all means, but go elsewhere for your evening meals. PS. This place demands a £30 charge on a card to cover "extras" at check in. I thought that hotels had stopped doing this because they trust their guests to settle up on checking out. Admittedly I only checked out in the afternoon of 1st December, but so far that full £30 charge is still on my card a day later, even though my actual spend on the room was only £3.80.

Owner Response, 02 Décembre 2022

Dear markturner2022 Thank you for your feedback following your stay with us. I'm sorry that you did not enjoy certain aspects of your visit. I will certainly review them to see how we can improve however some feedback that I can give you is; we as everyone are also impacted by the rise in the cost price of utilities, food and other aspects of the business; of which these costs have to be passed on to our guests unfortunately. These charges do assist us with being able to maintain a sustainable business but also look after the team that work at the hotel to make every guests stay special. In regards to a cover charge; for every guest that wishes to charge back to their rooms any food, beverage or other products they have at the hotel a preauthorisation is required. This secures funding on a guests account to ensure that rightfully so the hotel receives payment. This is standard practice within most hotels within the hospitality industry; whilst I agree that we wish we could take the trust approach, the honest answer is this does not always work out for the business. We do hope to welcome you back to the hotel again in the future Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Fire alarms and parties keeping me awake"
rebeccagI7599ZL, 28 Novembre 2022

The staff are lovely but I didn't have a relaxing stay as the fire alarm went off twice in one night, once at 12am, then at 2.45am because someone was smoking/vaping in the toilets. There was also a loud party going on in the function room downstairs, into the small hours. I was on floor 2, so feel sorry for those on floor 1. It's not on, having a loud music disturbing guests past midnight. Lastly, the breakfast is not great and is quite poor quality, or perhaps cooked poorly? How about sourcing local meat & produce?

"Disappointing Stay"
mehrizk, 22 Novembre 2022

I was very disappointing to ask for the same thing over and over again. Myself and one more person in our group needed soya milk for health reasons but every time we had to ask. For the first breakfast I had to wait for someone to go and buy some whereas the day before I arrived at 2pm and I asked them for soya milk and they said they have just ran out of it. But the day after I had to wait for it to be purchased and the story continued every morning.

What a wonderful hotel and literally 10 minutes from Manchester Airport. Check in was very smooth and our room was super comfortable. We decide to eat in the hotel and had a great waitress Taylor who recommended the dishes of the day which we went for . On the whole this hotel is 10/10

"Very Good Service."

We have been looking for a different hotel near the airport and came across The Best Western. We where both pleased with our stay and all the staff are very friendly and professional and the room was spacious and spotless We enjoyed our evening meal in the restaurant and Taylor looked after us ,next morning the taxi was there on time as arranged 7 minutes to the Airport and when we arrived home we phoned the Taxi firm and he was there in 5 minutes, Great service

"Comfy, Clean and Friendly "
Barry O, 06 Novembre 2022

After a long flight home we booked this hotel for 1 night to rest up before onward journey home. We arrived around 11pm and first impressions were good. Staff were on hand with a pleasant friendly welcome and advised how we could get food that late. Check in was quick and easy and lobby with bar was clean and welcoming. We went to our twin room which was clean and very comfortable with everything you could need. Very good night's sleep no noise and felt fully revitalised to face the day ahead. Can't fault this hotel perfect location just 7 minutes drive from airport.

"Amazing place for a party !! "
Chloe W, 01 Novembre 2022

So so happy with the service I received. I can to the pine wood looking for a room to hold a surprise 60th party for my mum. At this point we had been messed around and cancelled on by the last hotel 3 weeks before the party. At this point we were very stressed and didn't think the party would go a head. Hannah was amazing and sorted it out for me, she showed me the rooms and mentioned everything that came with it. We discussed prices and communication was great throughout the whole process. On the night everyone enjoyed themselves, the food was amazing and the venue looked great. I can't thank the pinewood enough for been so quick and helpful, making part happen. Thank you thank you thank you !!

"Hotel stay"
Storyteller55747, 11 Octobre 2022

Excellent stay at the Pinewood Hotel on Wilmslow, very high standards of customer service. We stayed in a double executive room overlooking the garden. Great option of a "grab and go" takeaway breakfast, including freshly made hot rolls. The food here is great both in the restaurant and room service. It is refreshing to stay somewhere with staff that are genuinely helpful.

"Not what we expected "
Paul B, 30 Septembre 2022

We use best western hotels a lot, but im sorry to say this is the worst one we have stayed at.... and the reason is the food and how it is cooked and presented. Asked to speek to the chef to explain why (on a technical term) but got the impression they are not concerned on the health implications by not conforming to the correct cooking instructions supplied by the manufacturer... ye the gesture was nice but thats not the answer......... employ grown ups not kids....

Owner Response, 30 Septembre 2022

Dear Paul B Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback following your stay. My apologies that we were not able to meet your expectations. Regarding your feedback in reference to following cooking instructions; I can advise that most of our menu is cooked from fresh with fresh ingredients. We ensure that we conform to all food hygiene regulations and we have obtained the highest food standards agency rating of 5 for our management and attention to detail of food safety. We will of course take your feedback on board so the team is fully aware. Regarding the employment of young people within the hotel; we are a firm believer of offering opportunities to all people regardless of age and we encourage the development of young people within a struggling hospitality industry. Again, thank you for your feedback. regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Beware of this parking issue"
johnpS1854WY, 27 Septembre 2022

We have stayed at this hotel on a number of occasions. We have no issue with the hotel accommodation or the staff. In fact we booked a Superior room which was very large & comfortable. The problem related to the car park; we were very surprised at the shortage of spaces on arrival & on returning from a dinner struggled to find a space. It transpires that this hotel now offers a stay & fly package which resulted in the lack of spaces. We spoke to the team as we wanted to avoid a problem on the second evening & they could only say that some staff finished at 11pm which could free some parking We will not be returning unless the management has resolved this problem

"Good clean rooms and great staff"
Jasmin21, 21 Septembre 2022

Room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was very good (had in the room). Staff were excellent and food in the restaurant was very good. Only downside was the radiator making slight noises but it did stop.

"Don't book here if you require to sleep on a night"
grahamw1252022, 20 Septembre 2022

Noise from extractor fan and radiator made it impossible to sleep which is the whole purpose of a hotel right? The heating wasn't on(no need) and the bathroom light wasn't on. Also, buffet breakfast, fruit was too dry and hot food is under heat lamps for too long

"Nice staff but rooms need improving"
Y7936BVsara, 14 Septembre 2022

Very good and welcoming staff and everything was clean and tidy, but rooms too small, too hot and too much noise from the corridor and lift going up and down. The whole place would benefit from an update to make it much more light, airy and spacious.

"Enjoyable experience"
johnaxon882, 10 Septembre 2022

The room we stayed in was a superior room on this trip but we have stayed in a double before both rooms were clean and comfortable . The evening meal in the the restaurant was very good I had the duck main course and would recommend it.

"Do not stay in warm weather!"
syed642, 30 Août 2022

The hotel room I stayed in was an executive, the view was great but the windows were difficult to open and kept closing. I stayed with kids and its extrewmely hot and humid as the bathrooms fan extractor didnt work. The room was swapped but the sheets didnt look like they were done a while ago as you scould smell dust. Despite no air conditioning there are not enough fans to cover the the entire room.

Owner Response, 30 Août 2022

Dear Syed642 Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback following your stay. My apologies that your stay did not meet your expectations. Regarding bathroom fans, we have not received any reports of bathroom fans working however we will check on this. Having spoken to my Maintenance team I can advise that many fans run silent as they are connected to a central duct system; this may have given the impression they do not work. Regarding the quality of your room; we are operating at high levels of occupancy at present meaning that room turnaround in terms of usage is frequent and cleaning takes place thoroughly every time. It is therefore surprising that you encountered such bedroom conditions but I will speak to my team to ensure they are aware of your comments. Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"The Best Weekend Ever!!"

"Very comfortable"
KarenG858, 20 Août 2022

My husband and I stayed here last night as we were attending a wedding at the hotel. Swift efficient check in, our room was extremely spacious & spotless. An iron, fan and hairdryer were provided in the room as well as complimentary toiletries. Considering how busy the hotel was & how close to the main road the hotel is we were surprised how quiet it was-even with the window open all night. We had an excellent nights sleep. All the staff we met were friendly & attentive. The gardens are lovely. We enjoyed our stay here & would recommend. Also only 10 minutes drive from Manchester airport.

Owner Response, 20 Août 2022

"1 Night Business Stay"
Jonesy335, 18 Août 2022

I booked a double room for my stay and certainly wasn't disappointed, I could almost get lost in it! It wasn't just the size but the cleanliness was very good and it was obvious that the staff have gone the extra mile to make the room more than just presentable. Although the staff were very nice the service wasn't great. I found it really hard to understand the lady working on reception which meant the directions and instructions that she gave me were misunderstood. The waitress, although very pleasant, didn't know what lagers were on offer (there were only three) and I wasn't notified of the dishes of the day without requesting (although she did for customers after me). The food was very nice and obviously made to order rather than prepped meals that are simply heated up you can sometimes get. To finish on a positive, the personal hand written welcome note in the room was a really nice touch for such a large hotel and very much appreciated!

Owner Response, 18 Août 2022

Dear Jonesy335 Thank you for your feedback following your stay with us, it is greatly appreciated. I have highlighted the service issues that you experienced with my team; we will certainly work together to correct this which we will hopefully prove on your next stay with us. We hope we get the opportunity to welcome you back again soon Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Really lovely stay"
102CarolineB, 14 Août 2022

We stayed here for three nights to visit family nearby. All areas of the hotel were well maintained, clean and tidy. Staff couldn't do enough to help and were polite and friendly. The grounds are beautiful and due to the hot weather we enjoyed relaxing in the many shady areas, there is even a huge sandpit which many children were playing in. The restaurant was always calm and organised at breakfast time: we also ate there one evening and the food was fabulous. We'd highly recommend staying here!

Owner Response, 14 Août 2022

Dear 102CarolineB Thank you for your feedback following your stay with us. Its great to learn that you had a fantastic stay with us and the the team looked after you well; I have shared this with my team.

"Great location for the airport"
Magnalan, 09 Août 2022

Our welcome at the Pinewood hotel could not have been better. Easy to find and easy to park alongside the pleasant gardens set out with tables and chairs. In the freshly cleaned room we found it nicely decorated and a very comfortable bed. Unfortunately with an early morning flight it was not possible to enjoy the full night sleep! We had dinner in the restaurant before retiring. Good quality food was served but with a limited choice menu.

Owner Response, 09 Août 2022

Hi Magnalan Thank you for the time taken to leave your feedback, its greatly appreciated. We really appreciate your comments which I have shared with my team and we do hope to welcome you back to the hotel in the near future. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Poor service all round"
danibaby2327, 29 Juillet 2022

We stayed last Saturday for a wedding. We were unable to check in until 3.30pm which was way over the check in time. Given that we were staying to attend a wedding there that day we would have expected check in at the actual time or beforehand. Given that we had received an email the night before to check it the hotel would have been well aware that the wedding was taking place so unsure why rooms weren't made available. This in turn made us miss 2 hours of the wedding party as we were not offered anywhere to shower and get changed. Staff very flustered and openly spoke about a member of staff who left earlier than she should have. Then at the end of the night we were charged £25 for two bottles of water which was then resolved after informing staff that it was only 2 waters we had purchased. Room services for two cokes took 40 minutes also. All round a bad experience.

Owner Response, 29 Juillet 2022

Dear Danielle Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. I have had the opportunity to follow up on this with my team and I have been advised that they are not aware of any guests missing the wedding ceremony or the meal for the wedding breakfast; I apologise if this was the case. We do experience an increased demand on a weekend for early check in's and whilst we can sometime accommodate these requests it is dependant upon the number of rooms available and departures that day. Unfortunately on this occasion we were not able to offer an early check in. Regarding the beverage service experience; beginning with the water for £25; there was no attempt to charge £25 for the water. Looking at your reservation a preauthorisation had not been taken to charge drinks back to the room; the request was asked to take a preauthorisation of £25 to open credit facilities to be able to charge back to the room the water which I believed you wanted to purchase. This is standard procedure in the hotel to enable credit facilities for our guests. In regards to the room service drinks; I have spoken to the food and beverage team and I have ben advised that it was 20 minute wait for 2 cokes; the order was placed at 7.15am and duly delivered. Having reviewed your feedback and spoken to my team, whilst their could potentially have been better communication regarding the preauthorisation we will look at your feedback constructively to see if we can improve our standards of service. Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay. Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Regular visitors"
Douglas P, 28 Juillet 2022

Wilmslow is my home town and halfway between where I now live and family in Southampton. The Pinewood has for several years been the natural place to break out journey. Always immaculately clean with good food, helpful friendly staff and restful gardens. Why would anyone use a hotel at Manchester Airport when this peaceful oasis is so near?

Owner Response, 28 Juillet 2022

Dear Douglas, Thank you for leaving your feedback following your stay and for returning to the Pinewood; it's always great to welcome return guests. We're glad that you enjoyed your visit and we hope to welcome you back again soon. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Pleasant stay"
Morag M, 24 Juillet 2022

Stayed on return from holiday priced at £135. We originally had a train booked and were staying on our return. I rang the main best western line and explained that if our train were to be cancelled would it be possible to park for the week. The lady then spoke to someone at the hotel and confirmed yes it would be fine and the charge would be £5 per night which would make up the difference of a park and stay package. On arrival we were told this information was wrong and we then had to pay another £90 to park. However, we still had a pleasant stay and would stay again despite the misinformation.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2022

Hi Morag Thank you for your feedback following your recent stay. From your comments I have spoken to my team. I'm not sure whether there has been some miscommunication here. The parking charges at that time did equate to approximately £5 per nights however in addition there are also taxi costs to and from the airport which make up the Park & Fly Package, this was also added on to the cost of the room and parking. This should also have been communicated to you by the call handler that assisted you. After this I am glad that you had an enjoyable stay with us and we do hope that you get the opportunity to return to the Pinewood in the future. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"5 minutes from the airport"
Lindsay B, 09 Juillet 2022

This is probably a good hotel for the airport but also events, we see placed away from potential noise which was great, Room was basic but comfy, great for one night stay before flying. Literally 5 minutes from the airport. Some food options nearby and a Tesco

janetwZ6679XV, 04 Juillet 2022

4 day visit. Not told two weddings and function. Long check in and only one person on desk. Very busy obviously. Be nice to have known as covid on increase. Except reception no one wore masks. Parking very difficult even after 10pm. Room not cleaned first day. Restaurant very good and excellent menu. Veronica on front desk very helpful and organised us late night parking, toiletries and very polite. She runs rings around every one else! Fantastic lady and thankyou. You are an asset to this hotel and hope you are paid well! Thankyou Veronica!

Owner Response, 04 Juillet 2022

Dear Janet W, Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback and especially your positive comments regarding Veronica; it is great to see the recognition of team members that make a difference to a guests stay.

Arthur V, 03 Juillet 2022

While not a fancy place, it had a very nice "feel" and the restaurant was excellent. Like many places now, they are stretched on staff, but the three people we worked with were great. A very nice place with which to reach MAN airport, but with zero plane noise.

"Pathetic customer service"
Tommy_weetman, 01 Juillet 2022

If you plan on staying here before an early morning flight the following day, look elsewhere. A ridiculously loud party going on until the early hours of the morning making it extremely hard to sleep especially considering how thin the walls are. We went downstairs to reception to complain however Veronica at the front desk was extremely rude and unhelpful only offering us apologies and not trying to help at all. If this is the same for all the receptionists they need to focus their training on customer service.

Owner Response, 01 Juillet 2022

Dear Tommy_weetman Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. My apologies that your stay here with us at the Pinewood was impacted by the event that was taking place. We do try where possible to allocate non-event attending guests away from the functions that are taking place; however, we are not always able to do this either due to room types requested or availability of rooms types booked. As Veronica explained the hotel was fully booked and she was unable to offer an alternative room to yourself, my apologies also that we could not do this. Under circumstances such as this when the hotel is fully booked our own options are limited in terms of being able to offer an alternative solution. I will review your feedback with my team and I will reiterate with my front of house team with regards to allocating rooms for our guests. I do thank you for bringing this to my attention and we hope to welcome you back to the Pinewood again in the future Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Avoid, loud parties, rude staff."
E4230SOdanielw, 01 Juillet 2022

An extremely loud party until the early hours of the morning. Making it extremely difficult to sleep in the room. Went downstairs to reception to see if they had any solutions for this, the lady on the desk Veronica was extremely short with us. Offering no solution, only how she had no rooms and no earplugs, we weren't asking for a lot. We were extremely disappointed by this and believe she needs a lesson in customer service and problem solving!

"Good Hotel for short stay before flying"
Ladycap10, 13 Juin 2022

The room was very good & spotless. Just what was needed for a 1 night stay. Got lost getting there following the hotels directions & also when we arrived back home in to Terminal 3. The hotels directions said to wait outside the spar store. This we were told moved to Term 1 along time ago so needs updating. Hotel uses Lynx taxis & our driver who picked us up was the star. He parked in the car park & came to find us as he was aware we had 4 pieces of luggage. He helped us with this back to his car. This was very much appreciated & he went beyond what was expected. The taxi company was excellent & after 3 flights home from the US their help was gratefully accepted. Thank you.

"Avoid!"
henric802, 08 Juin 2022

Booked as close to airport for an early morning flight and had free overnight parking. Would not recommend. Car parking was a right squeeze, barely managed to find a space. Reception staff were lovely. Given room 411 on check in, avoid this room if possible. Room was absolutely tiny as was the bed, in a very bad state of repair. Mattress was very uncomfortable. Carpets looked and felt older than I am, furniture too. Barely enough room to walk around the bed never mind store suitcases. Bathroom looked decent enough, had a fixed hsad shower and tiny bath. Sealant was peeling off around all edges which is a really quick fix so don't know why they haven't sorted it. Also had a weird bit of wall jutting out over bath that's quite a hazard! Room overlooked some kind of roofing, window only opened a couple of inches before it hit a wall, and was positioned over an ancient desk so hard to reach. Worst part was that the room was SWELTERING. Like, unreasonably hot. I don't know why it was this hot as the radiator was cool to the touch? The staff are obviously aware of this problem as the window had been cracked ahead of our arrival. There was a desk fan in the teeny wardrobe, but this was pretty ineffective as you couldn't open the window enough to get cool air in so it just whooshed hot air around. On top of this, there were only 3 plug sockets in the whole room? Yes this hotel was not expensive but it is definitely not worth what they do charge for it. Would not stay again and would not recommend.

"Noisy and forget peaceful. Dreadful."
SchalkV8, 25 Mai 2022

Stayed here twice. It's not quiet. Ground floor window doesn't even have a latch. Can hear every car go by and people speaking outside in the carpark. Very little sound insulation between floors. Reception can do nothing. Tip for staying: DONT. Food was not terrible. Even though they suggested I get a deliveroo instead. When the staff say that you have question their quality.

Stayed at the Best Western this last weekend on an anniversary trip with my wife. Hotel is lovely and clean and the staff are very friendly.

"Don't Advertise WiFi If It Can't Be Accessed"
Julie P, 21 Mai 2022

The room was clean which is basically what I needed. I chose this hotel because it was fairly close to the airport and Best Western is a known brand. I could not access WiFi from my room for more than 2 seconds at a time. When I reported it to the front desk, nothing was done. I needed it to check in for my flight, which had several steps - complete one portion and wait for a confirming email, proceed to the next step and wait for an email, and so on. I was going back and forth to the lobby all evening, at a time when I needed rest for a long international flight the next day. I realize in the grand scheme of things this is not a major problem. However, it was a major annoyance.

Owner Response, 21 Mai 2022

Dear Julie P, Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. My apologies that you experienced WI-FI issues; this is something that we will definitely look into as we very rarely experience technical issues with the system. I will follow up with the front office team as to what follow up action was or as seems was not taken and how we can improve upon this. Again my apologies and I do hope that we get to welcome you back to the Pinewood again soon. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Great short stay"
yram, 19 Mai 2022

Booked here for parka and stay when going to Italy. Room only as leaving 3.00am. Parking worked well. Room not ready but left overnight bags with Reception while we did bag drop at airport via taxi - quite expensive for a 10 min ride; black cab. More expensive coming back airport to hotel so if repeating would re-order company used by hotel. Park and stay price includes taxi to airport on day of departure and then ring taxi company to collect on return with no further charge. Writing while we are away so haven't finished our experience yet but everything went like clockwork so far and staff were very helpful.

Owner Response, 19 Mai 2022

"Perfectly ok hotel unless you want to actually sleep"
MMBF1974, 01 Mai 2022

Spent two nights here, with a child, Friday night arrived v late and hotel quiet, room very pleasant and breakfast perfectly ok. Saturday night was a completely different experience. Two functions happening, zero sound proofing between the function rooms and the bedrooms on the first floor. I imagine it was a little like paying to sleep on the pavement on Canal Street at kicking out time from 10pm to 1am. We could hear every word of every song, every DJ comment, guests screaming and shouting inside and outside our window, and then running up and down corridors slamming doors until the early hours. According to staff they have sound limiters that cut the music off when it reaches the legal limit, proudly told me at 10pm it had already shut off twice, not sure boasting that the DJ was pushing the volume as far as possible over and over was a great response to our question as to whether there was any chance of getting some sleep that night. Also galling that they told us they call guests to warn them in advance, but only if you book direct. Apparently it's too hard to contact guests who book through any other system, although amazingly they managed to contact me three times to offer a paid upgrade and responded within hours to my note that we would be checking in late. We didn't need to leave until 10am, so managed to sleep from 1am to 8am, I feel incredibly sorry for guests who had an early flight on Saturday and had to listen to the incredible noise until 1am before rising early for flights. Advice…. Call before booking, if there are any events happening go somewhere else, if no events at all then a perfectly fine place to stay.

Owner Response, 01 Mai 2022

Dear MMBF1974, Thank you for your review following your recent stay with us. We are extremely sorry that you had such a badly disturbed night owing to the events that were taking place in the hotel. We do host many weddings and events and always do our utmost to allocate rooms carefully to those guests not attending such events; unfortunately on some occasions we do get it wrong of which we apologise. Although we appreciate that you had a poor experience we do hope that you consider staying with us again in the future. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Thank you - Best Western Plus, Wilmslow"
Paul G, 18 Avril 2022

We stayed for three nights over a busy Easter weekend, to spend time with our daughter, son-in-law and new grandson, having travelled 220 miles to see them. Great quality breakfast, with excellent service. Our room was perfectly clean and well appointed, but a continuous mechanical droning noise caused disturbance - when we reported this, we were moved without fuss or drama to another room. We enjoyed our stay, despite the move, and would stay again. Thank you to all the lovely people at BWP Wilmslow, especially the chap who moved us at silly o'clock!

Dear Paul G, Thank you for taking the time to write your review and for the great comments, despite their being a slight issue with your room.

"60th Birthday Celebration"
T9727EZsharont, 20 Mars 2022

We held my husbands 60th birthday meal at The Pinewood, so where do I start? The team were amazing from the arranging of the evening to second we left the following morning. Nothing was too much trouble. The best customer service I have personally experienced in a long time. The food was lovely and all our guests complimented the food. We hired a room, for our party which was dressed perfectly with white linen tablecloths and romantic candles. Our bedroom was spacious and clean and the breakfast was fab with lots of hot and cold choices. I would highly recommend this hotel for its staff, food and accommodation. Thank you again for making our evening go smoothly and enjoyably.

Owner Response, 20 Mars 2022

Dear T9727EZsharont Thank you for the great feedback and I am so glad that your event went well. We have a great team here who are committed to what they do and you as our guest. It is our objective for you to have a fantastic guest experience with us from start to finish and your review is testament to that. We do hope we get the opportunity to welcome you back to the Pinewood Hotel again. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Good Hotel close to the Airport"
Lawrence T, 15 Mars 2022

This hotel was very good. Easy to get to, clean and tidy, with good amenities. It was well priced with no additional car parking charges. The menu was limited in choice, but it was very good and not expensive. The only issue was that we had to leave before breakfast started. But to be fair not many hotels start breakfast at 4:30am.

Owner Response, 15 Mars 2022

Dear BigLoshT Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, I'm glad that you had a good stay with us. We hope you stay with us again, if you do, for early risers we can offer a breakfast to go which may be an option to take up. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Great value deal"
willow771, 12 Mars 2022

Groupon bed breakfast and evening meal deal.Well worth the money, lovely staff, great food, plenty of choice and clean modern room. We were given the choice of room up grade which we did and had a balcony executive room, nice added extras of coffee machine, toiletries and dressing gowns.Will definitely return.

Owner Response, 12 Mars 2022

Dear willow771 Thank you for the great feedback; I'm glad that you enjoyed your deal with us and chose the upgrade to the balcony rooms. They are fantastic rooms (especially during the summer) as they over look the great garden space we have. We hope to welcome you back to stay with us again soon. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"This hotel went above and beyond 5*"
AerialEngland, 28 Février 2022

I was given the task of organising parking for two large vehicles and 4 hotel rooms for 3 nights , On the Thursday i booked all rooms, i laid out my needs and wasn't met with one issue at all, on the Sunday i was feeling a bit anxious as this needed to go well so i rang the hotel and enquired about the stay coming up on Monday , the cones had already been put out ready for the large vehicles and the rooms had all been sorted with all of the rooms upgraded as i stay with best western a lot . The whole process was worry free, as was checking in and this whole business trip has got off to a great start al thanks to the hotel and its staff . Genuinely cant sing the praises for this hotel enough best ‘best' western ever !!

"Excellent mini break."
tinsel1965, 27 Février 2022

I took mum and family for a mini break. All had a brilliant time. Hotel, rooms etc were very clean and tidy. Fab accessibility for our disabled. Staff were polite and professional. Breakfast was yummy. Great day pass for Total Fitness.

"Excellent stay"
CarrieC844, 21 Février 2022

We had the most enjoyable stay at the Best Western PLUS Pinewood in Handforth. It is just perfect for visiting my parents who live a short 5 minute walk from the hotel. Reception staff are welcoming and friendly, restaurant is spacious, relaxing and food excellent and staff friendly and efficient. Bar is well stocked, and staff friendly and helpful. Room is clean, beds very comfortable and room has all you need including a fantastic shower. Housekeeping did a perfect job making up our room during our stay. We will definitely be staying here again.

"5 star Family weekend at pinewood in handforth."
Go23806303154, 21 Février 2022

Just returned from a weekend in handforth visiting family and staying in the pinewood. 5 of us in total and we had 2 Rooms which were comfortable and clean with a shower you could spend all day in. Food was fabulous from breakfast through lunch and dinner. A decent selection of food to choose from but not so much that you feel like there is still some creative effort in each dish. But the standout for me was the staff who all represented the hotel with generosity, flexibility, personality,passion and pride. To list the folk I had a personal encounter with, housekeeping, restaurant managers, servers, bar staff and reception. What a great team. And afterall, the people are the hardest thing to get right and when away from home it is the people you encounter that make a place warm and friendly even if all the rest is top notch too.

"Extremely good value for money, and on site parking too"
Rich W, 13 Février 2022

The hotel is basic but very clean and ideal for a short stay. Extremely good value for money for an outer London hotel. There is on site parking too for £10 per night. The only issue in my room was that the electrical sockets did not work but I didnt need to use them and actually forgot to mention the issue when I checked out. The reception staff were very efficient.

"Ok place for one night"
witneytraveller, 11 Février 2022

Decent hotel, clean and functional. Room was small especially the bathroom but ok for one night. Food was good and breakfast offered good choice. However if booking the dinner offer be warned it's a very limited choice. Would stay again if price was right. Staff were friendly

"Terrible"
chrisipad2022, 03 Février 2022

Extremely noisy throughout the whole night. Walls are so thin you can literally hear every word from the adjoining rooms. Plug sockets are on the opposite side of the room to the mirrors so impossible to dry your hair unless you stretch the lead into the bathroom (not advisable). No plug sockets near the bedside table so unable to charge phones. Rooms are tired and not the cleanest.

"Brilliant Staff"
193georginad, 03 Février 2022

We stayed at the hotel 2 nights. One night before departure to Cape Verde from Manchester Airport and we decided to book a night last minute for when we returned late from Manchester Airport. The hotel was clean and the beds were comfortable. The only issue that we had is that we had booked the Park & Fly Package and on the morning that we were dropped at the airport the taxi firm insisted that we pay him even though the hotel had paid the taxi charge. As we had a flight to catch we just paid the man and asked for a receipt so we could inform the hotel. When picked up for our return flight the man who picked us up did not charge us. When we returned to the hotel for our second stay we advised the man at reception who advised us to take it up in the morning with the manager. As a good will gesture the hotel gave us free sandwiches which we were grateful for as we needed some food before bed. In the morning the hotel manager refunded us £15 which was the cost of the taxi on the way to the airport. Brilliant customer service and very apologetic. We were also advised that this isn't the first time that the taxi company has done this, to which we said it wasn't their fault but the taxi firm were to blame. The staff however acted brilliantly and were very apologetic.

"Beautiful place to be"
gomwe, 02 Février 2022

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel with my family. The rooms were clean and spacious lovely coffee machine and drinks. The food was delicious. Staff so friendly. I will definitely recommend and definitely I'm returning

"Good Groupon Deal"
kellyMP143, 24 Janvier 2022

We bought a Groupon Deal for our first proper night away since we had our daughter. We had a perfectly nice stay, dinner and breakfast was included and the food was fine, very decent choice for the Money we paid. Our room was satisfactory, had everything we needed but was in need of a refurb. I know many rooms have already been refurbished but ours was a little tired. The bathroom in particular was ready for a refit. We stayed in an executive room which had a big bed and a coffee machine. There was hot chocolate in the room too which is always a little treat. We were above the function room which you could hear but it didn't go on too late, and as parents to a toddler with a rare night off we slept deeply!

Owner Response, 24 Janvier 2022

Dear kellyMP143 Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback following your recent stay with us here at the Pinewood. I'm glad that you had a great stay with us and we do hope to welcome you back again in the future. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Wedding Reception"
Kirstie W, 01 Janvier 2022

Our third attempt at securing a venue for our wedding reception on 29th December and we couldn't have asked for a better place! Staff went above and beyond and all the stress was taken out of our hands. The bridal suite was huge and amazing and we most enjoyed our second night for relaxing and enjoying room service! Food was brilliant and all the guests thought so too.

Owner Response, 01 Janvier 2022

Dear Kirstie W, Thank you for taking the time to leave your review following your special day; I am so glad that the team and myself could be part of it and deliver an exceptional wedding day for you both. We hope to see you again soo for a return visit to the Pinewood. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Awful stay"
Pioneer39432585413, 28 Novembre 2021

This hotel is so overpriced and outdated unless you pay the high prices for the upgraded rooms but bear in mind you are then over the function rooms so they are very noisy! Rooms are cold and very drafty in the old part, no heaters available and nobody was bothered. Towels and bedding are worn and have holes. The weekend I stopped there was a big brawl at a wedding and at 11pm three police vans arrived- not what you want when away for the night! Food is all fried, fish smelt terrible. Don't waste your money on this hotel

Owner Response, 28 Novembre 2021

Dear Hel Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are sorry that we were not able to meet your expectations during this visit. Regarding your accommodation, as you had booked a standard single room, we could only accommodate you in a standard single room on this stay. I am aware that previously when you have stayed with us that we have given you a complimentary upgrade however, on this occasion the hotel was full and as upgrades being subject to availability, we were unable to offer this to you on this occasion. There is always the option to secure an upgraded room by purchasing this at the time of booking; again, subject to availability. I am sorry that you were impacted by cold rooms during your stay, the room that you were allocated was located in the old part of the hotel, I appreciate that whilst we have done our utmost to weather proof the 100+ year old building I feel it only fair to point out that part of the draft was coming from the then happening Storm Arwen. There was indeed a bit of trouble at a wedding during your stay; we do try and avoid situations that could affect other guests negatively; part of the solution to this is that we will request the assistance of the authorities to deal with situations that has got out of hand; we do after all have a responsibility to our guests and team members to look after their welfare. These occurrences are extremely rare and not what we would normally see or expect at the hotel however we are relying upon the good nature of other people during such events not to cause trouble. I have passed on your food comments to our Head Chef; hence my delay in responding to your review. As my Head Chef has stated to myself the only thing fried is the fish & chips, we order the haddock in fresh and to be honest we buy it and it sells so fast due to its popularity, it's never in the building that long; apart from your own feedback we have not received any other negative feedback regarding the fish. Thank you again for your comments and I have made sure to share these with my team for constructive use. Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"The Best Western Pinewood Hotel - a Real Winner."
Philip J, 28 Novembre 2021

After a tiring drive in the dark the bright Best Western lights of the hotel were a welcome sight. A cheery and airy Reception and lively bar/restaurant area with friendly and happy staff greeted our arrival. We were quickly checked in and directed to our spacious, spotlessly clean and well furnished room. The restaurant offered a wide ranging menu; the food was tasty, freshly cooked and well presented and friendly and attentive staff were on hand at all times. The breakfast buffet was equally impressive. In summary. For a splendid break in a caring and welcoming hotel, where value for money is given the highest priority, the Best Western Pinewood Hotel is a sure winner.

Owner Response, 28 Novembre 2021

Dear Philip Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. It is great to learn that we were able to provide you with a fabulous experience from the start to the finish of your stay. Your words certainly are appreciated by the team who I know work extremely hard to look after all of our guests by trying to provide the ultimate hotel experience. Thank you again and we do hope to welcome you back to the Pinewood again soon. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Avoid at all costs"
277fayew, 27 Novembre 2021

This hotel is way below standard of a 4 star hotel, our first night we pulled back the bedsheets to discover hair all over the bed, the deputy manager came up and changed straight away but I would not expect this at the apparent standard of a 4 star, first night was noisy, wedding was on which is not really highlighted on the website. We had dinner on our first night which was documented as alcarte- it was not- chips were frozen, with some actually still hard and cold in the middle. Breakfast - good choice but again food was cold, we were served cold coffee and the eggs were undercooked. Night two was by far the worst a wedding that was on had the music on so loud the whole room vibrated for hours, I called down to reception several times and spoke to another manager who did absolutely nothing, I also spoke to a staff member called Lesley who was patronising and put the phone down, when I called back to ask why she had put the phone down I was told to get on with it as it was a wedding so basically it wasn't her problem we couldn't sleep. Lucky for us it was only a weekend away so the 3 hours sleep we got over 2 nights wasn't much of issue, however if I was flying the next day I would of been absolutely disgusted with the lack of care for guests that weren't at the weddings!! Part of the hotel was actually blocked off and not able to be used during the day due to one of the weddings also so no consideration for other guests. The hotel is not worth the money or the 4 stars it's been given! Avoid at all costs unless you want to rave into the night with the wedding guests!!

Owner Response, 27 Novembre 2021

Dear Faye Thank you for taking the time to leave your review following your stay at the Pinewood and I will do my utmost to respond to you based upon the information that you have given and my follow up with the team. Firstly, I can acknowledge that there was indeed an issue with the linen on your bed on the Friday evening which was promptly resolved; my apologies that this happened in the first place and we are in the process of discussing this with our external linen provider and our team. Regarding your dining experiences; If we had been informed of your dissatisfaction at the time of dining we would have addressed any issues you had. I can assure you that we do not use frozen chips, our chips are prepared fresh on a daily basis and quality checked prior to being served. The temperature of all food is checked prior to going out on our breakfast buffet; if there was the chance that it had not been and we were to be made aware of a temperature issue with the food then we would have addressed it immediately and replaced; however, we did not receive any negative feedback across the weekend regarding this. With regards to your own room in terms of location, the room which you were staying in is located above the kitchen. On the Friday evening we only had one event taking place in the hotel, this was on the opposite side of the building from the room in which you were staying. On the Saturday we had 1 wedding taking place which was again on the opposite side of the hotel. We did have a small family celebration in a function room located on the side of the hotel in which you were accommodated. I am aware that a member of the management team did come to your room to see how he could assist with regards to the noise that you were experiencing but he was duly dismissed by yourself. In addition, the offer of a room swap was given which was also duly dismissed. We do work with our clients holding such events and our guests to ensure that noise levels are kept to a reasonable level for everyone's comfort and enjoyment; the party hosts were approached and asked to reduce their music sound level for your satisfaction of which they did do so, as we did not receive any complaints from other guests the action taken was deemed satisfactory. Whilst an alternative option was offered to yourself from Lesley on Reception, when this was refused unfortunately Lesley did not have any further alternatives to offer as the hotel was almost full that evening; the only room being available was the room that was offered to you. I have spoken to Lesley and the senior Manager, Gabor, that tried to accommodate you on Saturday evening; I have been advised that whilst apologies were offered and the above actions were taken, there were no further options to provide since the request of an alternative room had been declined and they apologised to yourself on the occasions they spoke to you. Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Family get together"
joanj1922, 24 Novembre 2021

Stayed here to celebrate my sister in law's 60th birthday, the first time our family has been able to get together since before Covid. We had the most wonderful time. The rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable, the food outstanding but most of all the staff - they could not do enough for us - even had the chef helping us put up birthday balloons! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Owner Response, 24 Novembre 2021

Dear joanj1922 Thank you for the great feedback following your event and stay here at the Pinewood; its great to learn that you all had a fabulous time. I'm glad that we could be of service to you all and we hope to welcome you back again in the future. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Excellent 60th Birthday Celebrations"
Rhian D, 23 Novembre 2021

We are a big family who live all around the country. We decided to celebrate my Auntie's 60th Birthday at the Pinewood (we all also stayed overnight). The staff and manager could not do enough. Helping us decorate, accommodating our every request and ensuring we had a good time. The rooms were very clean and food was delicious. Would definitely recommend. Thank you for a great stay.

"CAR PARKING PICK UP IS DREADFUL"
Travelling-Man008, 13 Novembre 2021

Room was alright but pre paid taxi service was crap waited 45 minutes and it cost £39 return. Don't book it as it's rather annoying. Not the taxi driver's fault but the hotel need to be keeping a check on this. Also why did I get eight YES EIGHT emails about my stay?!!!

Owner Response, 13 Novembre 2021

Dear Travelling-Man008 Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback following your stay. Unfortunately that taxi company that we use is operated by a third party and not ourselves; we will however address the issues that you faced with them for immediate improvement; we do not wish for the issues you encountered to affect future guests. Thank you for bringing this to our attention Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Very good"
W9099HOdavida, 07 Novembre 2021

We stayed here while our grandson was getting married at nearby Styal Lodge. My wife was arranging the flowers and because we come from Nottingham, she asked if she could prepare them in our room. The hotel could not have been more helpful, including providing a cool store room for their overnight storage. And the rest of our stay was equally good - lovely large and well-equipped room, excellent evening meal and breakfasts - the sausage and bacon were especially delicious. And without exception, the staff were helpful and friendly. Would thoroughly recommend it! Rick in the restaurant was especially helpful.

Owner Response, 07 Novembre 2021

Dear W9099HOdavida Thank you for your review following your recent stay with us, the positive comments are gratefully appreciated and I have shared these with my team. We do hope that we get the opportunity to welcome you back to the Pinewood again soon. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Great stay"
AimeeLiz2020, 07 Novembre 2021

Customer service was amazing, food was surprisingly great considering I got room service. There was so many options and it was delish. Room was a great size for the price and was well set up. Shower was really good which I find rare at most stays away. Nothing was to much trouble for the staff.

"Lovely stay in Handforth"
Drf10na, 24 Octobre 2021

This was a pleasant place for a weekend. The food was tasty, and the staff were friendly - there were several girls there who really went out of their way to make us comfortable, especially Kathleen, and they created a very welcoming atmosphere.

"Just ordinary"
Roadfartravelled, 20 Octobre 2021

The accommodation is acceptable but nothing special. The rooms are clean but a bit dated. The bathroom is functional. I don't like the use of a shower curtain that sticks to you in the shower and the bath is quite high to climb into. The toiletries provided are nice. Breakfast was good, service could be improved. The one bonus is having use of an electric car charging point.

"Overpriced"
jackandrose123, 18 Octobre 2021

The room which was an executive double was quite outdated looking and did not reflect value for the price, you could get a similar room at a big standard travel lodge for less than half the cost the staff however were very pleasant , on the way to check out the lift was also out of order

"Amazing customer service"
Carrie T, 13 Octobre 2021

Staff were compassionate, courteous, polite and over all went above and beyond to help me in a desperate situation, when another hotel refused to allow me to stay despite having a paid booking. The staff were helpful, put my mind at ease and made sure I had all I needed. They made me feel safe and valued. Excellent, above and beyond customer service. All staff were friendly and helpful.

"Comfortable and friendly"
Thamesbabe, 05 Octobre 2021

This was a very quick overnight while visiting relatives and we arrived late and left early so can't comment on much. However the staff were friendly, the room spacious and very comfortable so we look forward to returning and seeing more of what the hotel has to offer.

"Sadly Not a good experience"
philipwC5673UP, 03 Octobre 2021

As a disabled guest you expect the lift to work , at best it was hit and miss. Not much use to me The booking was made and payed for six days prior .at £135 I had to leave my Debit card details on booking in . At this time we were told by the receptionist that we were not being charged for anything. But it was for if we incurred any extras that were chargeable . Checking the transaction receipt I discovered we had been charged £155 in addition to the first charge. It was replaced back on my card with the excuse .” It was a replacement on duty” All in all not the best experience we have had . Luckily we spotted the “overcharge” You have done better on the past !!! Slipping standards ?

"Great value for money"
deesyb22, 27 Septembre 2021

Great hotel with clean rooms. Decor dated, and needed more electrical sockets near the beds, but everything else was spot on. Very friendly experienced staff. There was a lovely wedding going on but the noise was barely audible. Plenty of parking but don't park near trees. Had to wash the birds mess off my car. Not a pleasant experience

"Excellent Hotel"
Jeanette W, 27 Septembre 2021

Booked a Groupon deal for me and my sister to celebrate her 70th birthday. Made to feel very welcome on arrival and after a slight mix up of our room we entered our allocated room to find balloons, banners, cake platter and a birthday card which my sister very happy. I cannot thank the staff enough for making our overnight stay so memorable. Our evening meal was a delight and we were very happy with our choice even if the set-menu for our Groupon deal was limited, we were very satisfied. Breakfast was excellent - continental and hot buffet with very good quality ingredients. The strawberry/banana smoothie was delicious and not often found on a hotel breakfast menu. We were very impressed with the whole visit from start to finish. Very friendly and polite staff, extremely clean bedroom/bathroom and excellent food/service. Highly recommend and will definitely return.

"Really good stay for a decent price"
Ironshepherd, 25 Septembre 2021

I booked this hotel as I was attending a wedding. I can't remember the price, I think it was £68 it was well worth it. The room I had was a double and it was very spacious and the price included breakfast. The breakfast had a continental and a full English. The continental was very surprising as it usually some cereal and a bowl of fruit but here they had cured meats, some cheese and a variety of fruit and fruit juices. The full English was a good spread as well, it was self serve but usually with these things it's some horrible looking sausages, scraggly bacon, beans and watery scrambled egg. Here they had the full works, black pudding fried eggs, nice sausages and bacon, tomatoes beans. It was a really good breakfast! The staff were very very friendly from the receptionist, to the people helping with breakfast to even the housekeeping staff. I would deffinately stay here again and reccomend this hotel.

"Best Hotel I've ever stayed in."
SevenofOne, 22 Septembre 2021

This is a fantastic hotel with amazing staff that are friendly, professional and go the extra mile. Having worked in hospitality previously, I'm rather fussy. I was welcomed late in the evening by Jess, who is a credit to the team. Wonderfully polite and helpful, I saw her several times throughout my stay where she dispensed extra coffee, plasters and smiles throughout my stay. Upon opening the door to my room, I was very impressed with the cleanliness and amenities, which included the normal tea and coffee, a coffee machine and most importantly, a fan located in the wardrobe. The room was gorgeous and I had a wonderful night's sleep. The only criticism I would give is there wasn't a bath in my room, but the shower was lovely and warm. Note my room was upgraded from my original booking. I also made a special request when booking, and this hotel did not disappoint - see pictures for my framed photo of Spock ♥ Simon, the handyman/gardener was also lovely, stopping to have a chat (which means a lot when you're traveling alone) in the beautiful gardens. I spent rather a lot of time there in the peace and quiet reading, the roses are rather lovely. The bed was wonderfully comfortable and I slept soundly all night. I'm staying in Manchester City centre this evening and while the hotel is perfectly adequate it's nothing compared to the personal service and attention to detail I had here. Nothing is too much trouble and should I be returning to Manchester I will be staying here again.

"Excellent"
Ross K, 20 Septembre 2021

Well managed hotel and gardens. Food, service and accommodation were superb. Area very good too being near to restaurants, shops and rail services to Manchester.. Local amenities include garden centres national trust sites etc

"One night stay"
John_bNottingham, 18 Septembre 2021

Fantastic hotel reception and staff all excellent, nice spacious room and spotlessly clean. Beautiful décor throughout and top class breakfast. Lovely grounds. Good location for village stroll with good shops and amenities. Highly recommended.

"Gem!"
aneil363, 17 Septembre 2021

Great find a real gem, went with Groupon offer and extremely good value. Hotel lovely, clean and welcoming. Fantastic garden area. Room was nice however very warm but they did provide a good fan. All staff we met were polite and friendly, we would definitely stay here again

"Lovely hotel with a fabulous restaurant."
karenj395, 12 Septembre 2021

The food options in the restaurant are great and all the food I've eaten were really tasty. The rooms are very clean and up to date.the pillows andthe bed are comfortable. the tea coffee and biscuits are ample.

"Decent room and restaurant "
107adriany, 10 Septembre 2021

The room was large enough, clean and well equipped; tea and coffee etc. Good bathroom. The restaurant served a good meal, although the service was slow. Free parking and free WiFi. Breakfast was excellent; a good choice of food. Friendly staff.

"Our wedding venue"
annmariedrummond1955, 06 Septembre 2021

Brilliant venue for our wedding staff made sure everything went smoothly exceptional magical day Grounds exceptional Hotel very clean well decorated Room was amazing Staff worked extremely hard to make our stay exceptional we even stayed an extra night

"OK I guess"
StephnaieS, 05 Septembre 2021

Stayed for 1 night as a stop over between destinations, I was unsure due to the reviews but gave this hotel a try. Plus point was the free parking and located close enough to a supermarket/ food establishments. The staff were friendly and check in was easy enough. The room was an okay size but very dated which for me instantly makes me think the place is unclean, the bathroom was small and uninviting, we did not use the bath or shower as it just did not look pleasant. The hotel was just okay and I would not stay again but no issues overall

"Faultless Wedding!"
Wilmslow124, 05 Septembre 2021

We recently had our wedding here, due to Covid we had to change our date 4 times and I can honestly Say the staff were amazing and made us feel at ease each time it had to be changed. A big shout out to Kathy, Katherine and Gabor. Gabor helped run our day, from the night before the wedding he was very reassuring calming my wedding nerves and ensured our wedding day went to plan. The food was amazing, the rooms were spotless and the service was faultless!! I would recommend anyone to get married at the Pinewood Hotel.

"Just... disappointing"
E2085OFrobertm, 05 Septembre 2021

Booked this for a short break with my kids. £ 300 for b&b for four nights seemed reasonable, and since it's a four-star hotel I thought I couldn't go wrong. Check-in online was straightforward and it was easy enough to find our room, kind of wish we hadn't. Dirty walls, stains on the chairs, a shower unit that was easily from the 1990s... I don't know how often the family rooms are used, but ours was in desperate need of an update. Breakfast wasn't much better. I'm aware that this could be classed as an airport hotel, but not all the guests are looking to get away early of a morning. On all the days we made it downstairs before the end of service, but I got the distinct feeling that everything was too much trouble for the staff. The service got worse as the week went on, culminating in us being told to 'find a table' as opposed to being shown to one, which I'd have been happy to do if they didn't all have used cutlery and crockery on them. The final straw came when I was served undercooked chicken on the last night. The meal was refunded, but I did start to wonder how the hotel managed to receive a rosette. I had booked the hotel so my children could play on the man-made beach, which remained closed due to the poor weather during our stay, which was fair enough. My eldest and I laughed off the irony of seeing it open as we were leaving! A hilarious ending to an awful stay. We'll not be returning. Top tip: If you're not a gym regular but are looking to use the fitness centre the hotel has a link with, take a padlock.

"Disappointing Stay"
psyduck45, 03 Septembre 2021

Stayed here for 2 nights with my family and was expecting so much more from reading the reviews. Stayed whilst there was a wedding at the hotel and they pretty much took over the hotel. The doors to the rooms cannot be shut quietly so you hear every door in your corridor opening and closing. Certainly wouldn't recommended this hotel for a restful break. Rooms are very dated and small. Room wasn't ready on arrival and receptionist tried overcharging us compared to rate advertised.

"Absolutely awful service"
532catrinb, 19 Août 2021

We booked this hotel for 2 nights for a work event and very much regret it! They cancelled one room of our booking and resold it, so when our coworker arrived she was left stranded as there were no other rooms available in the hotel. We had told the receptionist she can't make the first night when we arrived but she will be here in the morning, she said that was no problem at all she'll make a note of it. However they instead resold the room without contacting us at all. It was an eventful week in town and all other hotels were booked up- we ended up having to book our colleague in a motorway stop off hotel 40 minutes from us!! They were not apologetic and offered no form of compensation at all, we were stuck paying for an even more expensive last minute booking at the other hotel and a taxi for 40mins- absolutely disgusting customer service. If you do end up here, make sure youre not on the side where the garden is as you end up with the pub people out there being noisy until late! Do not recommend at all.

Owner Response, 19 Août 2021

Dear 532catrinb Thank you for your feedback. I am disappointed that you decided to post such a negative review, however, I think it only fair that I set out the circumstances of the booking so that others can judge who was at fault. I have spoken to my team regarding your stay with us here at the Pinewood and I am aware that your room was not cancelled by the hotel. In fact, out of the 3 rooms originally booked only 2 rooms checked in on the arrival date and the other room went through as a no show as your co-worker failed to check in on the correct day. This room was released automatically by our system thus returning it for general sale whereupon due to the level of demand it sold quickly. In addition, we were then expected to automatically have the knowledge that your co-worker was not going to arrive at the hotel until the Saturday despite not being informed at any stage; either prior to arrival or upon the check in of the other 2 rooms. We were therefore expecting your co-worker's arrival, unaware that travel plans had been changed. As this was clearly not the error or fault of the hotel we would not be offering compensation. Our commitment to customer service is evident in the number of positive reviews we have received and it is unfortunate that you have decided to blame the hotel for a situation we are not responsible for. Regards, Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Birthday break"

"Fabulous!!!!"
Jue-1892, 14 Août 2021

Had another brilliant overnight stay here. The staff are so friendly nothing is too much trouble for them. Rooms are always very clean. We had lunch and sat outside in the lovely grounds. In the evening we ate in the onsite restaurant. The food was amazing!!! We have been here lots of times and we have never been disappointed in our stay. Love the place!

We hope to welcome you back for many more stays to come. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Enjoyable Stay"
Whitleygirl, 08 Août 2021

Booked this hotel for its proximity to Peak District and to trial it for future airport hotel stays. Despite being very close to Manchester airport and on a busy road, the hotel and its very attractive grounds did not appear to suffer from a lot of noise. The food at the hotel was of an excellent quality and very well presented, staff were friendly and the rooms were satisfactory, albeit on the warm side. We will definitely be returning

Owner Response, 08 Août 2021

Dear Whitleygirl Thank you for taking the opportunity to leave your feedback; it is great that we successfully passed your trial and I am glad that we were able to offer you a great guest experience. We shall definitely be looking out for you returning and offer you a warm welcome back to the Pinewood. Kind Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Amazing staff!!!"
Hannahval, 08 Août 2021

My best friend got married here this sat wow the staff really did qo above and beyond Simon general assistant was by far the best!!! Very polite and friendly anything I needed as I was best lady to groom he couldn't of been more helpful it's lovely to stay at hotel and for a member of staff go above and beyond his job role!!! Really was a pleasure to meet him not to mention the head house keep obviously being best lady I had jobs that I needed to do and she was on had all day if I needed more towels for hairdresser and makeup artist and the decoration of suit was a nice touch!!! Monica who also organised the wedding was fab we had a slight change to colours of tables and we asked her to just cross it out on seating plan but she re printed it for us just fab!!! And the general manage Rob!!! What can I say iv never meet a general manager who actually gets his hands dirty normally they are sat in an office and only come out if needed but u can see he truly values his staff!!! And not scared to get his hands dirty overall u guys are amazing can't wait to visit again and would highly recommend for weddings they go above and beyond!!!

"Don't stay in Room 115 if there's a wedding on!!"
rebeccalballantyne, 05 Août 2021

Despite booking our stay months in advance, we were unfortunately given a room (115) directly above the function room. There was a large wedding party so the noise continued until the music stopped at midnight and shouting/door banging continued till 1am. Honestly though the dj was in our room it was so loud! Young daughter was very distressed, despite ringing reception we couldn't move rooms as they were full and we couldn't fit into a nearby hotel as they were also full. I love a good wedding as much as the next person, but this was a huge oversight by the hotel to put a young family in this room knowing that a function was booked. Received a full refund in the morning.

"Relaxing evening and chilled started to the day"
Saskx, 31 Juillet 2021

Although based on quite a busy road you didn't really notice. The garden was lovely to sit in with a lovely atmosphere in the evening, whilst in the morning it provided a very chilled start to the day. The food was very nice. We had the sharing platters which were scrummy. Staff are stretched though - as in most hospitality sectors at the moment.

"Excellent Stay"
Diane S, 25 Juillet 2021

Arrived home on Saturday 24/07/21, after an excellent 3 night stay here. I was with 2 friends and we all felt the same. From the moment we arrived until we left we were given 5 star service. I was in room 319 (accessible) - perfect! The food and service was excellent, lovely choice on menus. Special mention to Rick - bar, Charlotte - reception, and there was a young lady waitress that was working Friday morning who always went the extra mile. She has long tied back blonde hair, sorry didn't get her name. If I am in the area for an event again I will definitely book to stay, in fact I would return anytime. Thank you all.

"Gritty outdated rooms that were not clean and heat unbearable"
pinkgem1987, 25 Juillet 2021

I'm sorry to say that when you arrive at the hotel and see the lobby and dining area and beautiful gardens you think your room will be the same. We booked a family room which was literally a room crammed with a travel cot and 4 beds. Heat in the room was unbearable for the young children. Mouldy chips on the floor when we arrived in the room and mould in the bathroom. The room was so outdated, carpet looks like it needed shampooed and not worth the money we paid at all. Very disappointed and won't be choosing best western again.

"A lovely stay and great package deal"
chloekerfoot, 23 Juillet 2021

Me and my partner went over Friday evening to stay for 1 night with a 3 course meal and breakfast included in our package deal. We arrived and dropped our bags off in our room and went down to their beer garden for a drink, our room overlooked the beer garden - it was sunny, beautiful and had a great atmosphere. Upon arrival the card situation was a little strange, we'd swiped a card for our room but it was never connected when we went to use the tab for drinks, so we had to go back to reception to fix this. The meal was lovely and the food was great, although one of the servers did spill a tonic all down me and I was offered nothing to fix this except sitting in wet clothes. The room was clean and tidy upon arrival, they have really lovely rooms with great decor and modern bathrooms. We were not advised when to leave our rooms nor was anything mentioned in the letter we were given, but we were ready to leave already in the morning when the cleaning lady came to do the room. A very good stay, just a few minor things here and there but other than that it was great!

"Excellent stay"
melissahalksworth, 20 Juillet 2021

Great value for money. Excellent facilities for a family stay, the family room was one of the best we have stayed in! attentive staff, delicious good quality food. Would definately recommend and will return next time we plan a stay in Cheshire

"Great hotel - clean, welcoming and good location"
Sassigrace, 13 Juillet 2021

We stayed here for two nights in July. Very impressed with the hotel for the price we paid. Lovely staff, great room (we overlooked the garden), great breakfast. Very clean and good amenities. The only negative was the temperate of the room - very hot. It wasn't overly warm weather so we couldn't understand why it was so warm, but there was a fan in there that helped a bit.

Owner Response, 13 Juillet 2021

Dear Sassigrace Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, its greatly appreciated.

"Afternoon Tea @Pinewood."
SunSeaker66, 02 Juillet 2021

A lovely afternoon tea sat outside on the lawned area in the sun. Crustless sandwiches, tiny cakes and a scone with jam & clotted cream, lovely. A couple of glasses of Prosecco just topped it off. Very friendly and eager to please. Would go again. Only negative - smokers by the front door. Not nice to walk through, either on entering, or leaving after such lovely food. Spoilt it sadly, but not enough to not go again. Did report to man on the bar, but will it be addressed? Not sure, he wasn't overly bothered but was polite and thanked me.

Owner Response, 02 Juillet 2021

Dear SunSeaker66 thank you for taking the time to leave your review after your visit; your feedback is greatly appreciated.

N3518KFpamelac, 04 Juin 2021

Recently had our wedding here and the hotel and staff were amazing! Didn't feel like a covid wedding at all. Staff were so welcoming and friendly and was there super quick for table service. Kathryn the events manager was absolutely amazing and so accommodating, she couldn't do enough for us and our wedding (and I was literally a pain!). We made so many changes due to covid restrictions and Kathryn was there to support us through it all. Our whole stay went smoothly with help from Kenny and Monica, who managed our wedding reception and breakfast the morning after. The hotel was perfect for our children as there was a huge sandpit area with sun loungers outside. We enjoyed breakfast outside in the gardens with all our family and guests the day after and it was just perfect! Can't recommend this hotel enough!

charlottecL2292KW, 11 Mai 2021

We had my elderly neighbours wake here last week and everything was beyond expectations. We had 11 of us in our party in the end including 2 vegans. We had afternoon tea served in the marquee in the gardens and there was plenty to go around. The two vegans (who usually have low expectations when dining anywhere) were blown away with the standard of their offerings. After a solemn occasion, this was the perfect location for family and friends to reflect and refresh. Ric, Alex and Serena and Harry all on hand to help and kept the tea and coffees flowing. Thank you again.

"Dreadful"
simonmZ4990BM, 06 Mai 2021

Made a booking and cancelled within hours due to cover restrictions. The hotel would not refund money paid, atrocious manner on the phone. Desperate, dreadful behaviour from a low rate hotel. Be very careful when booking with this company.

Owner Response, 06 Mai 2021

Dear Simon M Thank you for your feedback. I am disappointed that you decided to post such a negative review, however, I think it only fair that I set out the circumstances of the booking so that others can judge who was at fault. Your reservation was made with Booking.com on an advance purchase non-refundable basis two days prior to your call and five days before your scheduled arrival date. When you first rang to cancel the booking, our Reception Manager, who is a highly regarded member of the team, explained that any refund must be made through Booking.com. We were therefore expecting your arrival, unaware that you had cancelled your travel plans, until you phoned the day after you were due to check-in to once again demand a refund. At this point the reception manager repeated that any refund must be provided by Booking.com in line with their terms and conditions and patiently dealt with your reaction. Our commitment to customer service is evident in the number of positive reviews we have received and it is unfortunate that you have decided to blame the hotel for a situation we were not responsible for. Regards Rob Nicholson General Manager

"Very Good stay"
shabird2014, 20 Décembre 2020

The hotel is nicely situated in Wilmslow area. A waling distance to the small parade of shops. A large car park. Checking in and out was swift. Staff are very good and helpful. Breakfast set up and items were good. Harry at the Bar and at breakfast is very helpful. I got a take away from the Chinese shop near the chicken place. Very good. Room was a decent size and decor was good. I could not work out the air condition system but I thinks it was just me. Enjoyed my 2 day stay alot. Will definitely stay at the hotel again. Would recommend it.

Lovely spacious room in pristine condition. The shower works like a dream! The staff were all lovely and helpful. We were shocked at how good the food was when it arrived as the prices on the menu weren't bad at all. I would recommend trying the salmon starter with quinoa and wasabi, what a treat and at only £7.50. Caesar salad also delicious. Hats off to the chef. Breakfast was great too. Highly recommended.

"Visits to local tourist attractions and an exceptional place to stay."
crossley49, 06 Octobre 2018

Quite simply the best place we have stayed for a long long time - the staff, the accomodation and the food are exceptional. It has become as much a talking point to friends and family as the visits we made.

Owner Response, 06 Octobre 2018

Dear crossley49, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay. It is always a pleasure to hear from guests that had the opportunity to experience not only the hotel but the fantastic attractions available in the local area as well. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Great afternoon tea"
MerseysideLynn, 30 Septembre 2018

Took my 91year old mother in law here for her birthday.The hotel is mobility friendly with a ramp at the front of the hotel and disabled parking. The dining area is contempory with views of lovely garden areas via patio doors. The staff were attentive and pleasant. The food was really nice. Mixed sandwiches, assorted cakes and scones with jam and clotted cream served with tea or coffee. Water on the table is complimentary. A great experience for an elderly lady.

Owner Response, 30 Septembre 2018

Dear MerseysideLynn, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent afternoon tea. I am pleased that your mother in law enjoyed her birthday treat and we look forward to welcoming you back for your next family celebration. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Florida"
Tyketto_9, 27 Septembre 2018

Cant say enough great words about this hotel. Tge friendly staff, cleanliness and freshness of the room, and cheaper to stay there and leave your car for 2 weeks and stay overnight twice than use Manchester Airport parking. You can leave your car in reliable hands, and get transport to the airport included. The main reason for the 5 stars is that we arrived back from Florida after being awake for over 36 hours, and check in time was 2 o'clock, and we were tired to say the least. I explained this to the reception staff and they hurried the cleaning staff to prioritise the room and get us in there as quick as possible. By half ten our room was available and we got some much needed sleep, thank you .

Owner Response, 27 Septembre 2018

Dear Tyketto_9, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. I hope that you had an amazing time in Florida and pleased to see that we could help make your holiday more enjoyable. We look forward to welcoming you back for your next journey. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Excellent hotel and staff"
smfromglasgow, 20 Septembre 2018

We only stayed here for 2 nights, prior to and on return from holiday, flying from Manchester Airport. It was the first time also for using a Best Western. All we can say is if this is what the Best Western hotels are like, we are converts. I booked this initially due to the very competitive cost which included 2 weeks parking and taxi transfers. I was initially wary because it seemed really cheap and I wondered what I would get. I could not have been more wrong. The hotel was modern and clean but also homely and welcoming. It is set in nice grounds and about 20 minute transfer from hotel. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. They went that extra mile in ensuring that flowers, card, balloons, cakes were in the room for our return from holiday to celebrate my wife's birthday. The breakfasts were very good standard and always warm. The dinner in the restaurant was also very good. Overall a very good option to stay even if it is for the airport run. Extremely good value and the staff are a credit to the hotel and organisation

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2018

Dear smfromglasgow, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. It is always a pleasure to see guests appreciating the extra efforts that the team make to ensure that every stay is unique and memorable. You will also be pleased to hear that the new link road to the airport is now complete and the journey time from the hotel has been cut down to only 6 minutes. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"A stay full of positives, just about keeps all 5 stars"
Matthew J, 18 Septembre 2018

This is a ‘Very Good' hotel, but I have decided to give the full 5 stars since we didn't actually come across any issues and felt the value for money was excellent. We booked a sleep park and fly package (we couldn't find a premier inn cheap enough and has forgotten to book airport parking) A room on Saturday evening, parking at the hotel for a week, and taxi transfers to the airport and back - £116, completely faultless, and far far cheaper than booking airport parking and a nearly hotel, particularly on a Saturday evening. Hotel has ample parking round the back. This whole process was so efficient, form filled out at reception for the time the taxi was to be booked for, kept up to date via text message and taxi waiting outside at the exact time requested. The hotel is 4*, and deserves just that, it is set in some really nice gardens just off a main road, but quiet enough to enjoy the ambiance. The staff were helpful and friendly but didn't doing anything outstanding - again, good enough for us. The room was spacious with some nice extras, docking station, coffee machine etc. A large TV with good range of channels, hairdryer, ironing board, iron, all the usual stuff. Bathroom had a shower but no bath, and the room looked out into the nice gardens. The bed was extremely comfortable, one of the best we've slept in this year. The room was spotlessly clean too. Negatives - few and minor - A wedding was ongoing at the same time we were there, and as others have said in their reviews, it's SO SO LOUD. People out in the gardens ALL NIGHT and still noisy in the reception area at 4am when we went to get in the taxi. This was a wedding reception so this can be forgiven, but perhaps the guests should not be allowed outside at such hours making so much noise. - No Air Con. It wasn't a particularly warm night, but the room was absolutely boiling, we had the window open which helped slightly, but it was too loud. There was a fan in the wardrobe which we thought would save us, but after turning it on I thought I was sat under an aeroplane engine it was so loud, even on the lowest setting - so that went back in the wardrobe. Overall, a great stay - may come back

Owner Response, 18 Septembre 2018

Dear Matthew J, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. It is great to read such a constructive review and we will certainly use the information provided to improve the facilities for future guests. We have already invested in new tower fans for the rooms which are much quieter than the ones you had. We have also implemented a number of signs for the exit to the gardens requesting that guests respect those trying to sleep by keeping the noise to a minimum when they are enjoying the facilities. Around 70% of our bedrooms have both baths and showers and on your next visit please do drop us a note to say you would prefer a room with both and we will ensure that your room is allocated accordingly. We look forward to welcoming you back soon, Kind Regards, Hayley

"Free Parking"
Achnacloich, 12 Septembre 2018

I stayed at the Pinewood when in the area on business primarily because they were running bed and breakfast offer which represented the best deal available in the area when adding in the benefit of free parking. I have stayed on previous occasions when a similar offer has been available. The hotel is located about 10 minutes walk from the centre of Handforth which offers some good restaurants if you are staying for several nights and fancy a change from the hotel fare The car park is large and there are always spaces available though if you arrive later in the evening they may not be close to reception. On the plus side if you arrive early and the weather is good then you can relax in the garden area. Check in staff were efficient and friendly and completed the formalities with the minimum of fuss. My room was nicely furnished and nicely presented though space was limited between the foot of the bed and the wall mounted television. There was no air conditioning in the room which could have been an issue had the weather been hotter Tea and coffee was available with enough supplies for several cups. The bathroom was spotless with reasonable lighting over the mirror. Toiletries were provided and were of a reasonable standard The bed was large and very comfortable and enjoyed a very good nights sleep Breakfast was a bit of a curate's egg. A good selection of cereals, fruit, yoghurt and a cold buffet with cheese and cold cuts. However the hot buffet displayed the all too common practice of cooking large quantities of items and leaving them to sit on a hot plate. The fried eggs looked particularly unappetising and the top bacon rashers had started to dry out to the extent that I decided to forego what should have been my starter for the day. Tea and coffee was brought to the table and the staff were attentive in ensuring refills were available when required. Would I stay again? Yes, if there is an offer available as the Pinewood then offers very good value. In the meantime I will develop a liking for poached eggs cooked to order.

"Business trip to Manchester "
tony f, 10 Septembre 2018

Very smart hotel, great staff. Ate in the restaurant, very limited menu I'm not a fussy eater but would struggle to eat in if more than one night stay. But don't let that put you off, just be aware. The bar and general areas are very good, will return some time soon. Great for the airport if you need a stop over. Hope you enjoy, thanks.

"Worste Western - do not stay here!"
AndreVCheltenham, 08 Septembre 2018

As in other reviews, the wedding parties are ridiculously loud - and I mean ridiculous. Intended to eat at the hotel but was far too noisy. Then back in our room it was too loud to even watch the television. I would not stay here if I were paid if I'd known this is what they do. Can't believe the management think it's acceptable to take bookings when they have weddings going on.

Owner Response, 08 Septembre 2018

Dear Andre, I am sorry that you were disturbed by the wedding party during your recent stay. We do try to allocate non wedding guests away from the functions however due to the room types requested this is not always possible. Please could you contact me directly to discuss this further and hopefully we will be able to restore your faith in the hotel. Kind Regards, Hayley [email protected]

"Work Trip "
jules1311, 05 Septembre 2018

Just stayed here for 2 nights but I have stayed in this hotel before and it is a lovely hotel. The reason why I didn't give 5/5 is the first night I decided to get my breakfast delivered to my room for a £5 supplement fee which I think is a fantastic idea and it was lovely. See photo! I then decided to do this again last night for this morning so the procedure is you have to hang your order on your door before 5am and they come around at your designated time however no one collected it this morning so I didn't have any breakfast, not sure how this was missed so I was slightly disappointed and hungry but I had to leave for work. Room was lovely and loved that there was a fan as it was needed! Reception very friendly too and called taxis when needed to get to work, very quick! I do enjoy staying at this hotel!

"Should have trusted my gut instinct "
Stayingawaytoomuch, 29 Août 2018

It's really hard when you want to give places the benefit of the doubt. I'm always wary of Best Westerns and this one is no exception. Just tatty, broken tv remote, bed with a dip, mould on bathroom ceiling. Nice lobby and food decent - needs investment in my opinion

Owner Response, 29 Août 2018

Dear Stayingawaytoomuch, I am very sorry to read that you did not enjoy your recent stay with us. Unfortunately from your reviewer name it is not possible for me to locate your reservation in order to check the condition of the room you stayed in and it would be very much appreciated if you could contact me directly so that I can resolve the issues for future guests. What you have described is far from the usually high levels of service that we pride ourselves on delivering and I do hope that we will be able to welcome you back in the future so that you can see improvements for yourself. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Ideal airport stopover"
abbafan, 29 Août 2018

The Pinewood is always our hotel of choice when flying from Manchester airport. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Rooms are comfortable and quiet. The park and stay offer is very convenient as you leave your car in the hotel car park and they include a private taxi to and from the airport in the package which can only be booked directly with the hotel. Another highlight of this hotel is the excellent restaurant which is worth the stay just to dine here. See separate review.

"70th Meal"
Mark D, 27 Août 2018

We were a party of six and had the 3 course meal off the specials menu. Food was very nice and service was smooth and friendly. Good value and a lovely time was had by all. Hotel has adequate car parking and the surroundings are nice.

Owner Response, 27 Août 2018

Janet J, 27 Août 2018

My aunt stayed there, she had a lovely room, she is used to US size rooms and in the U.K. ours are usually much smaller, but in this case she had a really large room which was really stylish and clean, the breakfast was good and bar and garden area is lovely. Staff very helpful

"Nice breakfast but awful room"
ProfD_12, 26 Août 2018

Like most large hotels these days weekends are mainly for weddings with other guests mixing at the edges. Besides the noise associated with discos booming until 1 am these rooms suffer from a major flaw. The heating system, once on, sounds like the pipes of someone running a bath with a constant 24 hours roar in the background all the time. Not once moment of silence not even in the middle of the night :-( You cannot alter it from your room. Even ear plugs in don't stop the roaring sound! Reception said you just have to put up with it :-( If you like a quiet nights sleep AVOID. Also large bed it two beds put together with a sheet over the top.

Owner Response, 26 Août 2018

Dear ProfD_12, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. I am sorry that you experienced issues with the heating in your room during your stay. We have tracked down which room you were in and the maintenance team have bled all of the pipes in that area. I am sorry that this was an issue, with the recent hot weather few guests have used the heating and it appears that air had gained access to parts of the system. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Over priced, snooty menu and bland atmosphere."
Michael G, 23 Août 2018

Have not stayed at the hotel only visited the main restaurant for a dinner. I will start with the positives, the restaurant is modern and stylish and with a good range of food and wines. Now the negatives, the menu was full of pretentious terms like jus, puree, pan fried, hand selected, kobe beef etc etc, it drove me made trying to dicherper what to eat. The waitress did her best to say that the hotel was trying to appeal to new foodie type customers, but this was a saturday night and the place was like a morgue. Although the food turned out to be quite tasty, the sheer pretentiousness of the menu and unnecessary complexity of it made for a rather irritating evening and as a group we all decided we would not be returning, overpriced, bland atmosphere and snooty menu not for me thank you.

"Friendly and comfortable hotel "
Katherine S, 13 Août 2018

If you are looking for an airport hotel when traveling from Manchester this is the one! We took the overnight and airport parking deal which was really well priced. The staff were all really friendly and helpful from the friendly lady taking the intial booking to reception and bar staff. The rooms were clean and comfortable beds. Nice outside area to sit and relax. We parked for the week at the hotel and were provided with complementary transfer to airport which was around 4 miles away and pick up on return. Fantastic service from hotel we will use again and recommend to all.

Owner Response, 14 Août 2018

Dear Katherine S, Thank you for taking the time to share your lovely review of your recent stay. The team at the Pinewood are certainly our biggest asset and I am pleased to hear that you found all to be friendly and helpful. Once the new link road to the airport is complete, due for September, we will be only a 6 minute drive from the airport and yet still far enough away for all of our guests to enjoy the beautiful, peaceful gardens. We all look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Really nice hotel very near the airport "
Alison23lufbra, 10 Août 2018

Great value hotel with clean, modern rooms. Also great food in the bar and restaurant-really enjoyed selection of light bites! Great for an early start from Manchester airport . Nice garden and outside seating too.

Dear Alison23lufbra, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us.

"Excellent "
jacqui290161, 30 Juillet 2018

Visited this hotel with friends. Spent two nights one of which we all had dinner. (Around 60 people) Could not fault the rooms, the service. The food at dinner was exceptionally good . The breakfast had everything you could possibly require. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel. You will not be disappointed.

"Overnight "
Geoff F, 26 Juillet 2018

We stopped here purely due to the ratings and feedback from previous clients and weren't disappointed. It is a comfortable and clean hotel with a good breakfast very reasonably priced. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We actually booked to stay there again the Night before we flew back to the USA because it was so close to Manchester Airport and very reasonable. Would keep this hotel in mind if we flew from Manchester again.

Owner Response, 26 Juillet 2018

Dear Geoff F, Thank you for your recent review. I am pleased to see that we met your expectations on this occasion and that you intend to return. I would also like the opportunity to find out what we could change or add to our service in order to amend your next review from a 4/5 to a 5/5. If you have any suggestions it would be great to hear from you via [email protected] Kind Regards, Hayley

"On a grand scale"
DCL0, 22 Juillet 2018

Very large room with good facilities and attentive staff. Excellent location close to Manchester airport and just a few minutes off the A34 and motorway network. Excellent breakfast with a very wide variety of food and drinks. Plenty of parking.

"Gone a bit downhill"
Elizabeth D, 22 Juillet 2018

We stayed here overnight again recently and it seems to have gone a bit downhill since we last stayed. There was a wedding on when we arrived and when my husband popped back up to our room to collect something he passed a couple of staff giggling in the corridor because they'd pinched a bit of the wedding cake. If that had been my wedding and I'd found out, I wouldn't have been impressed. At breakfast we were seated at a table that wasn't set properly and I had to go hunting for butter, jam and milk, all of which had presumably been used by the previous occupants. When my pot of tea arrived it had no tea bag in the hot water and again I had to leave my rapidly cooling breakfast to get a tea bag from one of the waiting staff. Dirty plates were left on the table despite staff walking past and seeing them there several times. This made it difficult to fit everything on the tiny table. These are basic things that are not hard to get right but there just didn't seem to be anyone in charge or in control of what was going on. I think some staff training might be in order. Particularly for the managers, if there were any present.

Owner Response, 22 Juillet 2018

Dear Elizabeth D, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. I am sorry that we failed to deliver the usually high standards you have come to expect from us on this occasion. All areas have now been fully investigated and addressed internally. Please rest assured that the team you overheard that had enjoyed a piece of wedding cake had not taken this from the wedding taking place on the day of your stay. We had a wedding the day prior as well and the bride and groom asked that some of the left over cake be given to the team as there was too much for them to possible hand out to their guests. Regarding breakfast this is certainly not the standards of delivery that we expect and a full retraining program is being rolled out to ensure that this is not repeated. I do hope that you will consider returning to us in the future and that you will have a much improved stay at that time. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Airport stay"
Denise M, 22 Juillet 2018

trevorh19, 09 Juillet 2018

My partner and I stayed here for a number of reasons. We wanted to visit Jodrell Bank Observatory and explore areas where the late Blaster Bates lived and worked. We were comfortable and well fed. The other reason for staying here was the free charging for our electric vehicle.

From check in to check out our visit was perfect. Lovely friendly staff modern hotel. We booked a dinner offer which was brilliant value for money, food was freshly cooked with lots of menu choices. Waiting on staff could not have been nicer and chatted with us and at breakfast. Rooms spacious and spotless just hot but we had a fan. We'd stayed the night before in a hallmark hotel there was no comparison we will be back

lesleyjanepearson, 07 Juillet 2018

Went on a Saturday afternoon very relaxing atmosphere selection of sandwiches and cakes all well presented choice of tea or coffee and we had a glass of sparkling wine as well. Had a choice of where to sit pleasant gardens as weather for us was very hot. But could sit inside overlooking gardens if preferred.

Owner Response, 07 Juillet 2018

Dear lesleyjanepearson, Thank you for taking the time to review your afternoon tea experience. A glass of prosecco is just what is needed in this heat.

"Afternoon tea"
John-ChrisMc, 05 Juillet 2018

Our first visit to this hotel, and found the gardens and location, excellent. The tea itself, we both agreed was one of the best ones we have experienced. We are regular visitors for Afternoon tea, and have had many to be good judges here. We would have no hesitation in recommending this location. The quality, selection, freshness and quantity were all top class. Large pot of tea, and the offer of top up, or coffee later was also a strong positive. Excellent service by all staff met. Overall highly recommended.

Owner Response, 05 Juillet 2018

Dear John-ChrisMc, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent afternoon tea. As a true afternoon tea connoisseur your feedback is invaluable and a credit to our chefs and the hard work that they put into each and every dish they produce.

"Small rooms, no air conditioning but clean and a bed for the night."
wunderz, 28 Juin 2018

The rooms are small, no air conditioning is a pain in this heat, but it is clean and a bed for the night. Not overly impressed for a 4 star in Wilmslow but i take it is used for airline staff and travellers.

Owner Response, 28 Juin 2018

Dear wunderz, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. I am sorry that it appears you had one of the smaller rooms. With part of the hotel being in a listed building the room sizes do vary and some of the rooms have been effected by the heat more than others. I do hope that this will not deter you from returning in the future and look forward to meeting you then. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Paper thin walls. Can hear people in rooms either side talking though they probably weren't being loud"
capturethemood, 24 Juin 2018

Booked here spontaneously and got a last minute deal. 85 pound for the night. We chose the hotel because it had reviews advising it was clean and tidy. We were given a room with 3 beds (only 2 of us staying), so we welcomed the space. The walls were paper thin and so it was hard to drown out the voices coming through the walls without turning the tv up. So we found it hard to relax. We would choose an alternative hotel next time on this basis. In addition I thought the room was expensive given it did not come with breakfast.

"Great place, 5 *****"
StuartPeat, 20 Juin 2018

Great hotel, clean,tidy and quiet. Close to airport, convenient taxis, Lucy at receptionist was awesome! Nothing too much for her to do for us. Restaurant service great, meal excellent and affordable. Definitely stay here again. Free wifi!

Owner Response, 20 Juin 2018

"Monthly lunch date"
plumble, 20 Juin 2018

Meet here most months with friends for lunch and a catch-up. The food has consistantly been good, not one complaint from any of us. The only comment I would make is that service can be slow. Since the public areas have been tastefully decorated it is currently our first choice for our get-togethers.

Owner Response, 20 Juin 2018

Dear plumble, Thank you for taking the time to write your recent review, I will be speaking to the team regarding the speed of service and we hope that you will see an improvement next month. We look forward to seeing you soon, Kind Regards, Hayley

"Attention to detail. Refurbed standard rooms a bit tight for 2 people ."
am2103, 20 Juin 2018

Stayed here on several occasions. This time travelled alone . Basic newly refurbed double room fine for one person but cramped for 2. Superior much better but more expensive. Walk in shower as I requested. Space in bathroom tight. Shower screen quite narrow so power of shower limited to avoid flooding. Several messages left on notices asking guests to report any breakages/ missing items/requests to open windows more.... Name of chambermaid recorded . Customer service at reception good. I did not eat here so cannot comment on restaurant.

Owner Response, 20 Juin 2018

Dear am2103, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent visit. Some of our newly refurbished rooms are smaller than the executives. I am pleased to see that you enjoyed the Superior room though. We will be doing further upgrades to the rooms later this year and I have noted down your comments so that we can take these into account. Please do let us know when you will be visiting next and it would be great to catch up and see if there are any other suggestions you have that can improve the facilities. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Lovely afternoon tea and fantastic setting!"
HolidayFamilyUK, 18 Juin 2018

We celebrated a 70th birthday here with afternoon tea for the group. It was our second visit here so we already knew we were in for a treat. A good sandwich selection and a really good selection of cakes with unlimited hot drinks. A minor criticism would be that there are lots of different cakes so you can't try one of each (I'm likely sounding greedy and I definitely don't go short!). Also worth mentioning the staff who are super attentive and helpful! Also really nice gardens (often used for wedding photos) so take the camera and grab some lovely photos (weather permitting!)!! Well worth a visit and expect to return!

Owner Response, 19 Juin 2018

Dear HolidayFamilyUK, Thank you for taking the time to write your recent review. I am pleased to see that you enjoy the very popular afternoon tea and the grounds we have to offer. We have just taken delivery of some lovely new furniture that I hope you will enjoy on your next visit. We look forward to seeing you again soon, Kind Regards, Hayley

"Family wedding - couldn't be better!"
Neil B, 17 Juin 2018

Our daughter was holding her wedding at the Pinewood and a good number of family members were staying over which gave us the opportunity to view several rooms - all of which were good sized, some were very spacious, all were clean & well presented and kitted out to a good standard. Fast WIFI - free of charge - is available throughout the hotel. The main event was the wedding though and that's where the Pinewood really came into its own. Karen & the team were really professional, organised and friendly and the function rooms, bar, terrace & garden all worked well to make it an ideal venue. Food was really good, from the wedding breakfast to the late night buffet to the excellent breakfast the morning after the wedding. I've entitled the review 'couldn't be better' and I mean it, a perfect day leaving some wonderful memories.

Owner Response, 17 Juin 2018

Dear Neil B, Thank you for taking the time to write your lovely review. I am so pleased to see that you enjoyed your daughters wedding. It is always an honour to be chosen as the location for a couples special day and the whole team take great pride in ensuring that everything runs perfectly. We do hope that we can welcome you back in the future for another special occasion. Kind Regards, Hayley

Stayed overnight for my birthday. Very pleasant and polite staff, always had a smile on their face. Room was very clean and very quite. Didnt have an evening meal, but had the breakfast, which was a help yourself. Lots to choose from. Lovely breakfast. Would go again.

Owner Response, 12 Juin 2018

Dear JoanneWBolton, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay with us. I am so pleased to see that we were able to assist in making your birthday special and we all look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Family Wedding"
pattydavs, 10 Juin 2018

A great venue, a lovely garden for photos and mingling with guests, the meal was really good and served quickly and efficiently to all the guests, the staff were brilliant nothing was too much trouble. we were made very welcome, the whole wedding ran like clockwork making it a really relaxing day for all of us

Owner Response, 10 Juin 2018

"Nice hotel."
claire16986, 10 Juin 2018

Stayed here on a last minute Groupon deal of bed, breakfast and 2 course meal on a Friday night for just £79 so we weren't sure what to expect but we were pleasantly surprised the room was lovely and modern and more than comfortable for 2 people overnight the rather large tv was an added bonus. The bed was so comfy and we slept really well. We went to the restaurant for our meal which was a £20 allocation from their menus. We ordered a rump beef dish from the seasonal menu which cost the £20 we'd had a bit of a wait for it which the chef sent his apologies for but said the wait would be worth it and boy was he right the meal was amazing the beef was cooked perfect and melted in the mouth and the smoked potatoes accompanying it were devine it was probably one of the best meals I've ever had. We had Manchester tart for dessert which I was really happy about seeing on a menu as I love it but have not seen it anywhere else I've been before and it was lovely and refreshing. If you get the deal on Groupon book it it's amazing value for money we will definitely be back to the restaurant when we're around that way we're and looking at using the hotel when we go away as it's close to the airport.

Owner Response, 10 Juin 2018

Dear claire16986, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. Our Executive Head Chef, Colin, takes a real pride in the food that is prepared for our guests and the beef is a superb dish. As for the Manchester Tart I must admit that I am not from the local area and until recently had never tried this dish. I am certainly a convert to it now. We really look forward to welcoming you back in the future and please do remember that when you book your holiday we offer great value park and fly packages. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Quiet, comfortable with good food."
Elephantemg, 07 Juin 2018

I visited this hotel with a McDonald's Monopoly win. It's more expensive than places I usually stay. Check in was easy, plenty of parking on site. Room clean and comfortable. WiFi accessible in room. Tea making facilities and nice shower too. Room was quite nice, although overlooked nearby houses. Good amount of natural light. Had meal in restaurant both nights. Pricey and portions not huge. Fancy names for normal menu items (eg fish and chips) Well cooked though. Breakfast was brilliant, continental and cooked, eat all you can. Good fresh fruit/smoothie options. This hotel is in Handforth, not much there, few small shops/ cafes. Airport not so close, I did not notice additional noise due to proximity, but I don't think it's hard to get to from here. A nice stay, expected comfort. Staff friendly and helpful.

Owner Response, 08 Juin 2018

Dear Elephantemg, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay. I am sorry that you found the restaurant to be pricy, we have 3 different menu's starting with the simple menu at 3 courses for £22.50. From here it moves up through our 180 menu to the seasons menu which is more of a fine dining option. I am pleased that you enjoyed the breakfast. We try our best to offer a varied selection and are very fortunate to have an excellent team to accompany this. We do hope that we can welcome you back in the future, Kind Regards, Hayley

"Great place for a business trip"
Rockboffin, 04 Juin 2018

This hotel was booked by my organisation as part of a business trip and we chose it on the basis of location, price and facilities. On arrival we were greeted by very friendly and courteous staff and the hotel looked as if it was recently refurbished. The rooms were very clean and everything you need was available. The beds were comfortable and I had a king size which was very nice indeed. We decided to have bar meals on the first night of our stay and the quality and price of the meals were reasonable. I had a burger and was not disappointed.. My only complaint was the bun was a bit dry but otherwise good. Breakfast is excellent, good choice and variety, plenty of condiments, variety of fruit juices and excellent fried breakfast. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel for business meetings , we had booked a syndicate room and the staff provided some equipment that we had forgotten so top marks there.

Owner Response, 04 Juin 2018

Dear Rockboffin, That you for taking the time to write your recent review. It is great to read that you enjoyed your stay and we certainly hope that you will return soon. Our new menu launches this weekend and we have some excellent new dishes for you to try. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Great stay - lovely staff and facilities"
Julia S, 03 Juin 2018

all good - lovely garden - good service - breakfast chef Liam very good and friendly. We stayed for work and all we needed was provided and nothing too much trouble. Very clean and well kitted out rooms - nothing shabby or disappointing at all - would recommend and would stay for leisure/ airport too another time

Owner Response, 03 Juin 2018

Dear Julia S, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay. It is great to see that you enjoyed all aspects of your stay.

Please do not hesitate to contact me directly if I can provide you with any further information. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Not bad"
sjireland1, 01 Juin 2018

Good enough hotel. Nice gardens and bar area. Bedroom was very small but comfy bed. Bathroom was ok although the bath seemed to be high had I been a small person would struggle to get in it. Breakfast was good.

Owner Response, 02 Juin 2018

Dear sjireland1, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. I have checked your reservation and can see that you did have one of the smaller rooms. As part of the building is listed they do vary in that area. If you are returning in the future please do not hesitate to contact us directly and we can always allocate you a room with a walk in shower if you would prefer. We hope to welcome you back in the near future, Kind Regards Hayley

"good location handy for airport, Manchester and surrounding area"
chris w, 01 Juin 2018

Welcoming staff who are pleased to assist at reception and in the dining room. Good breakfast buffet in pleasant surroundings. Good road links off the A34 and when finished the Airport relief road. Handy for local shops in Handforth.

Owner Response, 01 Juin 2018

Dear Chris w, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay. It is great to see that you found the experience a pleasant one. We cannot wait for the local roadworks to be completed. Hopefully very soon and then we will be able to get guests to and from the airport within 10 minutes. We hope to welcome you back soon, Kind Regards, Hayley

"Lovely hotel"
andieurch3, 31 Mai 2018

Great staff, lovely room with balcony, lovely relaxing atmosphere with bar and the gardens are beautiful. Central Location and a short walk to the train station. Shops and restaurants nearby. Staff made our stay even better.

"Lovely hotel with a few niggles"
Sophie D, 29 Mai 2018

Pros- Lovely rooms. Beautiful gardens. Fantastic service. (Special Thankyou to the young lady with glasses and braces who served us at dinner, unfortunately we didn't catch a name, lovely girl who couldn't have done more for us). Comfy bed. Good range of gins (definitely recommend the palma violet and Turkish delight ones!) Cons- Rooms very hot, with no air conditioning. They did supply a fan but would expect this to already be available or air con in a 4* hotel in 26 degree weather. Food not great for vegetarians. When booking we were advised that there were lots of veggie options (we are both veggie) and there was only one or two mains to choose from on the menu. Also very overpriced- this didn't affect us as we had prepaid for dinner but the standard charge for the average, cannelloni dish we had was £12.45; which seems a bit ridiculous. Also veggie sausages were vile. Final niggle, the bathroom is extremely small; only one person could be in there at a time and barely enough space to turn around, water pressure was also not great. All in all it was good but not the usual standard of 4* that we have previously experienced. Overall, the hotel was lovely and the selling point for us was the excellent service. The staff really do go out of their way to provide excellent service and are a credit to the hotel. A few small niggles that were overlookable as we were only staying for one night, but any longer and this may create some issues.

Owner Response, 29 Mai 2018

Dear Sophie D, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. The young lady that served you at dinner was Chloe who is an absolute delight and I will pass on your appreciation to her. I have spoken with the chef regarding the availability of vegetarian dishes and we will be addressing this on our next menu change which is due on the 8th June. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I can see that the room you had is unfortunately one of our smaller rooms and do apologise for this. All of the rooms vary due to the listed status of part of the building. If you return in the future please do contact me directly and I will happily ensure that you are in a larger room. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future, Kind Regards, Hayley

"High Tea"
Catherine C, 28 Mai 2018

Just had an excellent High Tea. Awesome deal through Groupon. Can't recommend this deal high enough. Great sandwiches & yummy clotted cream for the scones. A pot of tea or coffee per person & delicious cakes to share as well. Great value for money.

Owner Response, 28 Mai 2018

Dear Catherine C, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent afternoon tea. The offer has been extremely popular and we have had many guests who have subsequently booked meals and events with us once they have had the opportunity to try the delicious food. I do hope that we will be able to welcome you back in the near future, Kind Regards, Hayley

"Peaceful & Relaxing haven"
bexk74, 25 Mai 2018

I stayed here from 18th May to 21st May and found the whole experience to be wonderful. I stayed with my parents as we were in the area to celebrate their Golden Wedding Anniversary. The hotel was beautifully kept to a high standard allowing us to feel cared for and comfortable. The gardens are amazing and give a real sense of relaxation and peace despite the hotel also being in a brilliant location to access all major roads easily. Once in the hotel you feel you are in the middle of now where and it was great for my parents and I to return there regularly and get time to relax before continuing with the various things going on for their anniversary weekend. The staff and food were superb throughout the entire stay. We ate in the restaurant, from the snack menu and enjoyed fantastic breakfast choice every morning. Liam was the chef whilst we were there and I think he did an outstanding job, while also finding the time to have a friendly chat with us in the morning. The two managers on shift at different times were also fantastic, being friendly and helpful, but unfortunately I didn't get their names. The lady manageress on the Friday night was chatty, friendly and very helpful, making me feel instantly relaxed on my first evening and th;e Bar man on our last night (Sunday) was also exceptionally chatty, friendly and helpful, despite nursing his broken heart at Man Utd being beaten the previous day ;-) Being in the industry myself I appreciate the effort that goes in to customer service and the Pinewood excelled in this area. The room was well decorated, kept brilliantly clean and very comfy. An added bonus for me on the trip was to find a bath in my room which was a luxury much needed for my aching bones after a long drive from Norfolk. All in all, as you can probably tell, I can not say enough good about my experience and should I find myself up North again in need of somewhere to stay, I will definitely be back. Thank you to the entire team for a fantastic weekend, you added an extra special touch to my parents Golden Wedding celebrations. Keep up the good work.

Owner Response, 25 Mai 2018

Dear bexk74, Thank you for taking the time to write your lovely review of your recent stay. It is a pleasure to read how much you enjoyed your stay and I have passed on your thanks to all of the team. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Comfortable, spacious rooms."
Sara B, 23 Mai 2018

We needed a hotel just for one night and managed to get a good deal on a room here. The room was spacious, no noise from outside the hotel or the corridor and the bed very comfy - with lots of pillows! :) The staff were really helpful and polite, check in and out was really straightforward. I can't comment on the restaurant as we didn't eat there but we did get a snack at the bar and this was fine - not the best I've ever had, but no complaints, and the staff in the bar area were again very polite and happy to help. I recommend choosing a room deal with breakfast included, it cost us an extra £20 for the both of us, but the breakfast was really good, I'm a vegan and there were plenty of options for me, and pleased to find lots of fresh fruit on offer as well. I'd definitely stay here again, easy access to the airport as well. Thanks for a pleasant, if short, stay :)

Owner Response, 23 Mai 2018

Dear Sara B, Thank you for taking the time to post your recent review. I am pleased to see that you enjoyed your stay and found the team and the breakfast offering to be particularly good. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Customer Service needs improvement, but good breakfast"
davidbarlow4, 23 Mai 2018

Altogether eleven members of the family had arranged for five rooms following attending a wedding at a local Golf Club. Despite prior arrangements having been made by the Bride and Groom to have breakfast included we were told this couldn't be given. Also the only rooms available were Executive Rooms, more expensive than those originally promised and not including breakfast. To rub salt into the wound when we woke up we found a dead cockroach in our room which I reported to the reception desk. The receptionist merely said she would report it to the cleaner to remove it, as if it was nothing. Very disappointed with the lack of concern. On the plus side the breakfast we had was very good although this did add £40 to my bill.

Owner Response, 23 Mai 2018

Dear davidbarlow4, Thank you for taking the time to write the review of your recent stay with us. I am sorry that you did not receive the originally agreed room type and price. I have looked into your reservation and can see that the you opted to book via booking.com rather than directly with us. Unfortunately the offer provided to the group was for direct bookings only. Regarding the unwelcomed visitor to your room, I am sorry that this would have been the last thing you wanted to see. However I can assure you that it was not a cockroach, it was a Maybug. With the current, welcomed sunshine they do like to make their way into the shade and unfortunately your room was close to a fire exit that had been left open. I will however speak to the receptionist as this should have been explained you to once the beetle had been identified. I do hope that we can welcome you back in the near future and if I can be of any assistance when the time arises please do not hesitate to contact me directly. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Superb Service and a fantastic place to relax"
rielly20172017, 19 Mai 2018

The service at this hotel was the best we have ever had whilst staying in Manchester. I think the lady's name was Nicola, Italian national, she was an absolute delight and could not do enough for us. Thank you, Best Western fantastic service

Owner Response, 19 Mai 2018

Dear rielly20172017, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay with us. I believe that the lady you mention was Monica, an absolute star and always very cheerful and welcoming. I do hope that we will be able to welcome you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Afternoon Tea"
jen_antbolton, 16 Mai 2018

Visited Monday afternoon for food. Absolutely beautiful Afternoon Tea, the best I've had (and I've had a lot!). The food was delicious and plentiful, lovely selection of little cakes, homemade scones. Only slight disappointment was squirty cream instead of clotted. Service was fantastic; many thanks to Rick who looked after us. Beautiful garden to sit in as it was a gorgeous day. Highly recommended, already planned our next visit!

Owner Response, 16 Mai 2018

Dear jen_antbolton, Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback. I have addressed the issue with the lack of clotted cream with our chefs and thank you for bringing this to my attention. I do hope that we can welcome you back in the near future and if there is anything further that we can assist with please do not hesitate to contact us. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Does the job and staff are very good"
Jonathan C, 11 Mai 2018

I arranged a group visit for 2 nights and also arranged an in house dinner. Staff were helpful and flexible and would recommend this if you are visiting local businesses in the area or Manchester Airport.

"Good but could be better"
Knight2393, 02 Mai 2018

Stayed here last Friday night, check in was easy and quick. Upgraded my room for £15 and the room was huge, nice bath and separate shower, comfy bed and large tv with various channels. Only let down is no air con but there is a fan in the room which was loud and full of dust on the back.

Owner Response, 02 Mai 2018

Dear Knight2393, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay with us. I am pleased that on the whole you enjoyed your visit and thank you for bringing to my attention the issues with the fans. We have now deep cleaned all of the fans ready for the sunshine to appear and are replacing some with new upright air coolers. I do hope that we can welcome you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Could do be"
Karl S, 30 Avril 2018

Typical hotel you get nowadays, nothing stands out as good, but no air-conditioning, a reception that does not listen, or chooses to ignore you, make it 3 star rating, at best. We had no air-conditioning, so asked for a fan. We tried to phone reception but the phone was out of order, so I went down to reception to ask for the fan and informed them that the phone didn't work. I was told that it would be dealt with, it wasn't and no apology or reason why. Also wedding parties are held hear until around 12am on a Saturday. Not good when you're up at 4 to catch a flight.

Owner Response, 30 Avril 2018

Dear Karl S, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay. I am sorry that we failed to meet your expectations on this visit. I have identified the receptionist with which you spoke and further training will now be delivered as it is not acceptable that no apology was given. I am sorry that you were disturbed by the wedding party and I can imagine that being kept awake when you have such an early flight is not ideal. We do try our best to allocate leisure guests away from any events that we are hosting however this is not always entirely successful. Your feedback will help us to make improvements and I do hope that you will consider returning in the future to see the improvements for yourself. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Extremely disappointing and noisy "
Karen M, 30 Avril 2018

Extremely disappointed. This hotel books weddings and parties and they don't inform you when they are. After arriving at the airport after a very long journey, we arrived and a wedding was taken place. A disco until 12.30am when all you want is sleep. This is not an airport hotel. The staff were disinterested. We were told it is a very popular hotel for occasions. We were on top floor but fire exit doors were underneath which were opened from the wedding. We could not eat in the hotel due to the noise and busyness. Very disappointing indeed. Go to the premier inn instead just down the road.

Owner Response, 30 Avril 2018

Dear Karen M, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay with us. I am most disappointed that we failed to deliver our usually high levels of service. We have identified the receptionist that you spoke with and further training is being delivered. I am also sorry that you were allocated a room above the wedding. We do our best to ensure that leisure guests are allocated away from our functions however we occasionally fail to get this entirely correct. Should you be coming back to the area in the future please do contact us directly to make your reservation and we will then be able to advise you if there is an event taking place and ensure that you are kept away from any possible noise. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Appalling night, very poor hotel, bad location for an airport hotel."
Norman C, 30 Avril 2018

Overnight stop after a very late flight arrival. Very disapointed, mainly that this is NOT as described an 'airport hotel'. Receptionist says they are allowed to call it an airport hotel if it's within 15 miles of an airport! Cost almost £40 return taxi just to get to and from the hotel. On arrival we found a big loud party going on in the function room next to reception - impossible to talk to the receptionist. Our room was directly above the function room and everything was shaking, the noise did stop after about an hour (just before 1 a.m.) but utterly disgusted. Room nothing special, OK but certainly not worth £100 a night. Full English breakfast was good, though the coffee was poor. Would not recommend the hotel for anything except the breakfast, if you need an overnight at Manchester airport pay the bit extra for one of the on-airport hotels and save the wasted taxi fare.

Owner Response, 30 Avril 2018

Dear Norman C, Thank you for taking the time to write your review. I am sorry that you found the hotel unsuitable for your stay and that you were allocated so close to the wedding. I would be interested to know which taxi service you used as our preferred company charges £11 to take guests to the airport and £15 for the return journey. This is then reduced if you are staying with us on a park and fly package. I am pleased to see that you enjoyed the breakfast. We receive a lot of compliments on our coffee but we are now investigating whether we should look at a different strength of bean. I do hope that you will reconsider staying with us in the future and if I can be of any assistance when such an occasion arises please do not hesitate to contact me. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Exceeded my Expectations"
Darren L, 28 Avril 2018

Needed to stay after a flight into Manchester on Business. The hotel feels fresh and modern and the room was comfortable and well appointed. I didn't eat dinner as I just wanted to catch up on some work so I walked up to the local Tesco express for a sandwich. The hotel is well located for my needs, far away enough from the airport not to be hounded by aircraft noise. I normally do not give 5 stars to hotels as I believe all hotels catering for business customers should provide electrical charge points for cars. I didn't see them but later was informed they have 2. So all in all an excellent find of a hotel on the BW points system

Owner Response, 28 Avril 2018

Dear Darren L, Thank you for taking the time to write your recent review. I am pleased to see that you enjoyed your stay with us and do hope that we will be able to welcome you back in the future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Disappointing "
User, 24 Avril 2018

Firstly, I don't complain to get anything. But I believe an honest review is feedback for the hotel as well as future guests. Now, I made a mistake through my online booking system through my work. At 2230 at night I booked a hotel for the following night but turns out it books me in for the same night. I've tried to book hotels for the same day before and it wouldn't let me. So yes I made a mistake. I had an email invoice from hotel. So I rang to ensure I was booked in for the night I wanted. The night I had booked (wrong night) was a double bed but now the only option was a single room or a support for 60 pound more. I contacted hotel as I am a diamond rewards customer with Best Western and explained that my company booking system had let me book the wrong night. I didn't ask for money back, but as I hadn't stayed, therefore I hadn't had breakfast, and my room hadn't needed cleaning and that I'm paying for another night as a diamond BW customer I could get the upgrade to the superior room. This never happened. Worth a try right? But I accepted the single room. And paid 99 pound for it. I have seen caravans bigger. I could lay in bed and touch the wardrobe on the opposite wall. How a hotel can charge 99 for a room this small is beyond me. My spare room in my new build house has more floor space. I went to dinner. Initially after being tired from work I would ordinarily order food to room but as the room was so claustrophobic I went to eat in the restaurant. I was greeted by some duty supervisor who literally told me off for not booking. She fitted me in and I was grateful only to sit in the restaurant filling 6 of the 25 tables I counted. The food was good. The pudding was good. The menu was good. The waitress that hosted me was very pleasant. I came back to the room the watch tv to find the signal kept making the screen blocking, making it impossible to enjoy it. I am a great fan of BW hotels but I must say, that despite the service of the waitress in the restaurant my stay here was quite disappointing. I will stick the the cresta court from now on, where you get what you pay for. 99 pound for a tiny room isn't, in my view, acceptable when a premier inn down the road would have given me a king size, a working tv and less claustrophobia. Maybe I need to understand what a BW “plus” means? Is it similar to a Tesco “metro”?

"Noisey"
Alan F, 23 Avril 2018

Bit disappointing, loud music until one in the morning then loud chatter that seemed to go on for another half hour or so. The room was small and claustrophobic. On the plus side the bed was comfortable and the breakfast very good.

"disappointed reception unable to amend and be flexible"
andrew h, 17 Avril 2018

very disappointed after inadvertently booking 2 rooms, (duplicated booking in error). I asked hotel if could amend, but werent very helpful. So i cancelled one room, straight away, but i cancelled the 'flexible' rate room wrongly, instead of the non flexible rated room. Even though it was a genuine mistake there was no understanding or lenience, in my request to amend, as I had to change flight and was required for previous room. Sometimes we all make mistakes, but in this case, I paid for it, was charged, even though explained what had happened, and was treated just like any other 'number' customer i guess, with a not possible to amend unless i pay the new rate of £86.50 (after being pleased on previous visit to be offered a special rate of 58.50 incl breakfast. So guess I'll think twice, when booking not only through booking.com, (who were very understanding) but said the hotel wasn't able to be 'flexible' themselves! So i cancelled.

Owner Response, 17 Avril 2018

Dear Andrew h, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent visit. We are a little surprise at what you have written as we had no direct contact from yourself to make the change and when Booking.com contacted us we advised that we were happy to change your booking. After all we are human and mistakes do happen. Could you please contact me directly via [email protected] so that we can investigate further. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Helpful staff disappointing room and noise levels"
Cara D, 16 Avril 2018

The staff are brilliant, helpful and efficient. Stayed two nights in an executive room. The room was very small, no room to put suitcase on the stand, only one socket for multiple use - lamp, kettle and phone charger, no sockets near bed. Bed extremely hard with horrid pillows and stiff duvet. First night woken at 4.00 am by a brief false alarm, this was loud and startling, difficult to go back to sleep after the shock. Second night disturbed until 1.00 am by a very noisy wedding reception. I was annoyed that we hadn't been warned about this. Guests for the wedding should be accommodated in rooms above the reception area so that other guests can be away from the loud compare and music. In all it was a very disappointing stay - you go to a hotel to sleep and on both nights this was not possible because of the noise!

Owner Response, 16 Avril 2018

Dear Cara D, Thank you for taking the time to write the review of your recent stay. I am truly disappointed to see that we failed to deliver our usually high levels of service on this occasion. I am sorry that the fire alarm woke you on the first night of your stay. As I am sure you can appreciate the health and safety of our guests is our priority and when the fire system is activated at night it does go straight into full alarms whilst the team investigate. On this occasion another guest was smoking in their room and once the issue had been resolved the alarm was silenced as quickly as possible. With the room allocations I completely agree that only guests attending functions should be placed in bedrooms that may hear residual noise from the event. Having checked your reservation I can see that you were attending a wedding at a local venue and thus the reason why you were allocated this room. We do try to ensure that anyone whom is not attending an event is furthest from the noise and unfortunately we do not always get this right. I do hope that you will consider returning to the hotel in the future and as such a time arises please do not hesitate to contact me directly and I will ensure that there are no events taking place on your chosen date and allocate you a quiet room. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Nice staff, room not very clean"
janine_richardson1, 15 Avril 2018

Stayed here for one night after a wedding. The wedding itself was nice no problems there our room wasn't great however. Good points - all the staff we spoke to or dealt with were nice and polite. The breakfast was good we had to wait a few minutes for a table and the young lady that saw us to our table couldn't apologise enough for the wait (it was literally 2 minutes). Check in was quick. Comfy bed. Bad points - the room was £85 for the night, the bathroom was old and dated and had black hairs all over the place on the floor, at the side of the sink a long black hair from someone's hair in the bath it just didn't look clean. There were stains all over the carpet and I didn't feel comfortable walking round with no shoes. The room was cold so I turned the radiator up which made loads of noise so had to turn it down again when we got back as couldn't sleep with the noise. The windows didn't open to air the room in the morning. The furniture was all old looking and worn. We just thought for the price it was a rip off and they should be charging half the amount. The hotel corridors and if our room is anything to go by could just do with a makeover. We didn't bother complaining with us only being there for one night and it being a wedding but if I would have been there for longer I would have been asking them to give it another clean.

"Cracking place. "
Screwloose2017, 15 Avril 2018

I only stayed one night however I was mightily impressed. Check in was quick and easy. Staff were very welcoming. Room was lovely and spacious. I had booked a single but they upgraded me to a double. Par king was ok. Breakfast was very hearty and a good range of items. Would definitely stay again.

"A Regular Venue"

This hotel is always welcoming and comfortable, close to our family and close to Manchester airport. Access from A34 excellent and car parking generous. The rooms always clean and beds comfortable. Lovely dining room and breakfast first class.

"Great hotel, very comfortable bed, slightly weird menu in the restaurant"
Michaela W, 10 Avril 2018

As above, the bed was extremely comfortable, room quiet, large Tv nicely refurbished room. I personally found the menu, difficult to choose from, Quite a lot of different style chips involved with the two menus rather similar and rather expensive. We found the third menu which is a two/three course menu the second night of our stay, still rather expensive. Eating out of a metal basket may look great for presentation but it is very difficult to eat from. Give me a plate anytime. The breakfast was okay but luke warm both days and the bacon looked microwaved. The staff are extremely friendly. I have given 5* for the hotel and 3* for the food making it 4*

Owner Response, 10 Avril 2018

Dear Michaela W, Thank you for taking the time to post your recent review. I am pleased that on the whole you enjoyed your stay. The comments regarding the food have been passed to our Executive Head Chef and we are reviewing both the evening meals and the breakfast. We sincerely appreciate you providing such feedback as without these comments it is difficult for us to identify the areas of our service which most need our attention. We do hope that we can welcome you back in the future and that the menu's will then be more to your liking. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Good location and excellent restaurant food"
Emma W, 02 Avril 2018

Easy parking. Good vicinity to the airport if required. Food in restaurant very high quality at a very reasonable price. staff courteous and friendly which is nice when you are dining alone. Although the room was a single, did not feel too small and all room amenities of a good standard.

"Superb"
jo8review, 28 Mars 2018

My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. Everything was perfect. We were utterly delighted when we went into our room to find the housekeeping manager Janet had made us a beautiful Anniversary card and also a plate of chocolate dipped strawberries. Delicious! So very kind and thoughtful! Thank you.

Owner Response, 28 Mars 2018

"Afternoon Tea"
DerekDigital, 21 Mars 2018

Thoroughly enjoyed a relaxed afternoon tea at the Wilmslow Pinewood Hotel with my friend Amanda, who had made the booking for us. On arrival, the very friendly staff provided us with options on where we could take our tea. We decided upon the formal dining area, as the sunshine and views over the landscaped gardens were rather appealing. Sandwiches and cakes were beautifully presented and equally delicious, and there was plenty of tea. Background music was set to a perfect volume level where it didn't intrude on our conversation. Thanks to both the hotel and the staff for a really lovely afternoon.

Owner Response, 21 Mars 2018

Dear DerekDigital, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your afternoon tea experience. The gardens are looking beautiful at the moment now that spring has finally arrived. I have passed on your appreciation to the team and we all look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Holed up in Manchester"
John B, 20 Mars 2018

Exploitation of a captive audience with excessively high beer and wine prices...almost London prices. Food is very nice but again, a tad expensvie for tbe quantity served. I will not book here again since there are plenty of other hotels in the vicinity of the airport.

Owner Response, 20 Mars 2018

Dear John B, Thank you for taking the time to post your review of your recent stay. I am sorry that we failed to meet your expectations. We have a very large selection of beverages available a the hotel and I am sorry that your selection appeared expensive. Equally we offer a variety of different menu's including a three course meal in the main 180 Restaurant at only £22.50 per person. I do hope that you will reconsider visiting us again and as such an opportunity arises please do not hesitate to contact me directly and I will happily run through additional options with you. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Not the Usual Best Western"
aesta, 19 Mars 2018

We have stayed in Best Western before but have not been back in the recent years. BestWestern has changed or is this only true of Best Western in the UK? We expected the usual airport chain hotel and we were gob smacked especially after eating in the hotel restaurant. It was tasteful in its decor and food. could still taste the grilled lamb I ordered. The room is spacious and clean that we definitely will stay in a Best Western Plus property again.

Owner Response, 19 Mars 2018

Dear aesta, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay at the Best Western Plus PInewood Hotel. I am pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay and do hope that we will be able to welcome you back in the near future. Best Western Hotels have been through a big transformation in recent years and lots of hard work has gone into improving the brand. I will pass on your comments to the Best Western UK team and I am sure they will be pleased to hear that their hard work is being recognised. If you ever need any assistance finding another Best Western hotel there are some that I would personally highly recommend. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly if I can assist in your selections. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Weekend course"
3milyR12, 17 Mars 2018

I had an amazingly comfortable stay here for a course it was before Christmas and very busy for parties so my only issue was the amount of people that stood outside to smoke as there were loads! I ate at the hotel a couple of nights in s row and the food was lovely I would recommend this hotel.

Owner Response, 17 Mars 2018

Dear 3milyR12, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of your recent stay with us. I am pleased to see that you enjoyed your recent stay with us. We are a very popular venue for Christmas Parties and have addressed the issues with the volume of smokers by providing new smoking areas away from the main entrance ready for this year, We appreciate that it is not inviting for guests who choose not to smoke. I do hope that the difference will be noticeable and we look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Great staff"

"Single Bed Business Traveller"
Michael W, 09 Mars 2018

Returning to Manchester Airport at the tail end of the snow storms. The M62 was closed so I needed to stay over until it re-opened. Room 401 is a single so small but as long as you are expecting small (I was) it is fine. Almost like a cabin it was just what I needed to last out the storm. Everything was clean and relatively efficient. I have seen a few complaints about breakfast in the reviews but thought it was better (particularly the coffee) than what I was getting in Germany. Can't really fault the place for anyone needing a sleep over near the airport. Certainly got me out of a pickle.

Owner Response, 09 Mars 2018

Dear Michael W, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay at the Pinewood Hotel. We have recently changed our coffee supply and it is good to hear that the change is an improvement. I do hope that you continued your journey safely upon your departure from the hotel and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Could've been so much better, the stay was let down by poor breakfast."
TMoult, 06 Mars 2018

Stayed at the Best Weston Pinewood as this is a hotel that came highly recommended to us by a colleague, who uses this frequently. No issues with the rooms or bar, but my main point was the breakfast. There was three of us sat around a small table, with no room to put anything. The waiter just kept dumping food items wherever he could, regardless of how cramped we were. As for the quality of the food, the Bacon had been cooked at 6am along with the fried eggs. They were still there when we ate at 8! So Bacon jerky and rubber eggs it was. I did ask if there were any fresh items coming, but only got a gruff response, and no fresh items were forthcoming. Coffee was lukewarm, and the toast was warm bread that hadn't been toasted. Other than breakfast, it was a pleasant stay, just not sure if we would stay again.

Owner Response, 06 Mars 2018

Dear TMoult, Thank you for taking the time to write the review of your recent stay at the Pinewood Hotel. I am sorry to hear that the breakfast was a disappointment as we pride ourselves on both the quality and the selection available. Please be assured that no food is ever left on the hot buffet for a long period of time and the eggs in particular are continually cooked throughout our service periods. Please could I ask that you contact me directly via [email protected] so that I can ascertain the dates of your stay and work out which of the breakfast team require retraining. Upon requesting fresh items the buffet should have been replenished and fresh items brought to your table. I do hope that we can welcome you back in the future so that we can show you the usually high levels of service on which we pride ourselves in delivering. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Pleasant friendly staff, clean, efficient service, great food"
Peter F, 05 Mars 2018

I stayed for one night due to an early morning flight, we booked a double room with dinner and breakfast through a Groupon deal. The room was clean and everything was fine with no issues, a little noisy at night due to a large party which had been drinking since late afternoon, I believe this was from a funeral, but little anyone could do. The dinner was good, but clearly as it was a groupon deal, the menu and content was paired down to meet the cost, however, the food was well prepared and very good service from the attentive staff. Breakfast was one of the best buffet style breakfasts we had had for some time, quality ingredients, but the preparation and the care of presentation, was excellent, also the serving staff were extremely friendly and very helpful, I could not fault the breakfast or the service from the staff, truly 5* My only comment to management would be over the start time for breakfast, service did not start till 8am on Saturday, with the Hotel clearly used for the nearby Manchester Airport, serious consideration should be given to an earlier breakfast start time ?

Owner Response, 05 Mars 2018

Dear Peter F, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay at the Pinewood Hotel. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the team to be welcoming and attentive. They are truly our greatest asset. Thank you for your comments on the breakfast times. This is a very good point and with our location to the airport we do offer a continental breakfast from 7am and a takeaway breakfast is available at any time required. However we are now going to review this and trial the availability of the full breakfast from 7am to see what uptake there is. Thank you for such constructive feedback. Without this it would be difficult for us to focus in on the areas of our service that need it most. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Sunday day overnight stay and good value accommodation facilities."
Margaret C, 04 Mars 2018

Visiting family at Northenden Mcr and had enjoyable comfortable night in Exec room with. Groupon offer. Excellent choices for breakfast although at 8.30 bacon and sausage were dry and seemed to be previous day warmed up. As a Monday morn with few people booked in would expect frequent reduced volumes of food to be cooked to keep fresh. All other foods available excellent including staff services.

Owner Response, 04 Mars 2018

Dear Margaret C, Thank you for taking the time to write the review of your recent stay at the Pinewood Hotel. Please rest assured that all of our breakfast food is prepared freshly each morning. Having spoken to the team we are now reviewing the amount of food which is placed on the buffet on the quieter mornings so that it can be replenished more frequently from the kitchen. I do hope that this will resolve the issue and that on your next visit you will find the quality much improved. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Pleasantly surprised "
steve_e_hewitt, 16 Février 2018

We chose this hotel as a stopover for a flight next day from Manchester. We were lucky to get a Groupon deal that gave us evening dinner and breakfast but putting the extra value aside the hotel impressed us right from the helpful check-in. The interior is nicely decorated in a contemporary style but at a much better level than your average sterile chain. Our room was large and again the decor good and all in good order. We went to the restaurant for evening dinner and were offered two different menus depending on what we wanted to pay. The meal was well presented (on black plates, a bit chefie but fine) and of a good standard. Staff were attentive but not over bearing. As you would expect the drinks menu for wine was a bit pricey but they have to make some money somewhere. Breakfast was equally good with an excellent range of food to set us up for the day. Overall we had an excellent stay which was above our expectations, rooms good, staff good and food good. We will definitely stay again.

"Surprised and disappointed on St Valentine's Day"
derek s, 15 Février 2018

I phoned the hotel to ask if they had a St Valentines special on for the restaurant that night, I was told yes they do and it includes a welcoming glass of proseco and a red rose,very nice I thought, do you have any tables left? Yes she said, would you like me to E mail you over the special menu, OK I said, it dualy arrived so at £35.00 each I booked a table for me and my wife. As we don't uasully celebrate this event my wife was delighted with the surprise and was looking forward to the event. Although we only live about 800 meters from this hotel we haven't eaten there for about three years, any way although it was a dreary drissley night we put on our hats and overcoats put up our umberellas and walked there, this should be good. When we arrived and presented our selves at the wait here to be seated sign we were approached by a charming young lady who asked us if we had booked, to which I replied yes we have booked the St Valentine's Day special, with this she showed us to a table, hold on a moment I said do you think we could leave our wet hats, overcoats, and dripping umbrellas some where else, she checked with some one and they were then taken away. We were shown to a table about 2ft x 2ft next to a guy who was working on his laptop or something not Ideal for a romantic dinner, my wife asked if we could sit at a different table more suitable for the occasion and this was agreed to. Once we had settled in we where asked what we would like to drink, I pointed out that I was expecting a welcoming glass of proseco and a red rose for my wife, oh right he said, I had not mentioned this to my wife as I wanted it to be a surprise, so that was ruined wasn't it. So eventually the rose and Proseco arrived and we ordered our starter and main course, what dessert do you want, we don't know my wife said we need to see how we feel after the main course OK they said. Having finished our starter, very quickly, the main course arrived, who is having the steak he said, hold on I said we are supposed to be having a raspberry and vodka sorbet, oh he said like he had no idea what was on the special menue, so he took our food away and eventually came back with the sorbet, it was very nice By this time the fun had gone out of the evening and the rest of the night was just what it was. I think we where probably the only people in the restaurant cellerbrating St Valentine's Day and if the Hotel need advice on how to put on an event like this, this ex pressure washer salesman will point out how it could be made to be special for the customer.

Owner Response, 15 Février 2018

Dear derek s, Thank you for taking the time to write the review of your recent meal with us.

Kind Regards, Hayley

"Mixed feelings - room bad, service good (at times)"
Rrab M, 09 Février 2018

Good: most staff are very pleasant and easy to deal with. Great selection of healthy but also indulgent food for breakfast. Bad: my room (401) was far too small to be comfortable. Seems like they found some extra space at the bottom of a stairwell and made it into a room! Also, the bed felt like sleeping on a bean bag. Pillows were poor. The decor in the room is tired and bordering on chintzy. At breakfast, espresso coffees are not included in the price - really??? Finally, I've never been to a hotel where they offer a laundry service but you need to drop it off at and then collect it from reception.

Owner Response, 09 Février 2018

Dear Rrab M, Thank you for taking the time to write your recent review. I am pleased to see that you enjoyed the service received from the team and the breakfast. Regarding the room I am sorry that you found it to be unsuitable. Room 401 is a single room and thus one of the smallest rooms we have at the hotel. Although the bathroom has recently been upgraded the bedroom is due for a full refurbishment later this year. Thank you for bringing to my attention the issue with the mattress and the pillows. The pillows have been replaced. I am sorry that you found it odd to have to drop your laundry at reception. We offer a same day laundry service via an external cleaning company and in order to receive the laundry back for early afternoon we have to send the laundry out at 8.30am. As this is too early for our housekeepers to be disturbing our guests we request that you bring your laundry to reception or call reception and they will collect it for you. If you are happy to have your laundry returned to you on the following day we are happy for our guests to leave the laundry in the room and housekeeping can collect it after 11am. If you are returning to the area in the future I do hope that you will consider staying with us again and as such a time arises it would be great to meet you. Kind Regards, Hayley

Debbie J, 07 Février 2018

Nice hotel, good clean rooms, food good. Disappointed about the lack of gym or hot tub onsite but they are linked to the biggest in the UK which is 2 miles away. Room service is good especially the pizza fries. some of the rooms don't have baths so you need to request one that does. would stay here again

Julia D, 04 Février 2018

Use this hotel alot throughout year.. Stayed Saturday 3rd Feb. Found toilet to be dirty after inspection. Toilet overflowed after flush.. Receptionist upgraded us after we reported the toilet issue.. We were grateful to the receptionist. Had a light meal in the bar.. Sandwiches..Beef x 1, Ham x 1. 2 x chips= £20. Bread was poor quality and filling was none discript. During early morning a noise woke us up!!! Not sure if this was from the kitchen. As our bedroom was close/above kitchen!! Such a shame on last nights stay. As this is used frequent for business..

"Seems to be "Party Place""
Kudrun, 03 Février 2018

"Thank you Groupon"

"No onsite parking!"
Bardsey, 10 Janvier 2018

My friend and I had an early flight to Malta so booked this hotel has it included parking for the duration of our holiday but what it neglected to tell us until we'd paid and got the confirmation email was that parking was not onsite as expected but we had to leave the next morning and drive to the long stay 1 parking at the airport! We set off following the hotel instructions which sent us back on the motorway one junction and to the airport where it said long stay 1 would be signposted - wrong!!! Short stay, medium stay, jet parking all signposted but no long stay so we drove what seemed like miles and couldnt find it - it was after 6am and we needed to check in 2 hours before our flight at 8am - eventually we saw a Ryanair crew member walking along with her case so asked her and she told us that she was asked that every morning by lost travellers and gave us directions. Very difficult to find and also difficult to get a space - we drove round and round and eventually ended up parking at the end of a row that probably wasn't a properly marked bay but we were running out off time. We waited 15 mins for a shuttle bus in the cold until one came! The hotel itself was fine but I'd never stay there again as it isn't an airport hotel it's miles away! I only booked it as it said it was an airport hotel and led us to believe we parked up there! It had a grill next door which didn't open for a couple of hours so as we hadn't eaten since breakfast we had to go find a pub to eat in. Not a good start to the holiday!

"Overnighter"
AliJane56, 29 Décembre 2017

Brief stay but very satisfied. The room was exceptionally clean, with a very good ensure shower room. Only negative was the coffe in the room which was awful, and at breakfast the bacon and sausages seemed to have been overlooked and left on the hot plate too long. Distaff were courteous and efficient and friendly,

Owner Response, 29 Décembre 2017

Dear AliJane56, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. I have tried the coffee in the bedrooms this morning and we are going to conduct some taste comparisons with other brands throughout the coming weeks to see if we can find an improved product. We are also planning to introduce coffee machines in the upgraded rooms shortly and this will certainly provide a greater taste. I look forward to welcoming you back in the near future to gain your thoughts on the improvements. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Xmas Dinner dance"
Mojoblue717, 27 Décembre 2017

40 members of our Social Groups Walking Section enjoyed a pleasant pre - Xmas evening at this excellent venue. This is the 6th year that we've held this event here, but the first time we've been so close to Xmas day itself; on Sat 23rd December. Surprisingly the venue wasn't as packed as usual, which made it a much more enjoyable evening, with only approx 70 of us in this pleasant function suite. The meal was bog standard Xmas fare, but well presented and quite tasty, served by a quite professional staff. Most members of our group anyway felt that the food was good value, though the drinks a bit pricey...£3.95 for a mainly lemonade Shandy and £5.45 for a small glass of wine.. Evening finished off with a good Disco and a great start to the Xmas Holidays

Owner Response, 27 Décembre 2017

Dear Mojoblue717, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. I am pleased to read that you enjoyed your party night. As the last event of the year it was quieter than most and thus we only had one function room in use. We will be reviewing all of our drinks prices in the new year and hope that when we next see you they will be more appealing. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"A really good one night stop over."
Philip W, 26 Décembre 2017

We were booked on an early flight from Manchester . so to avoid any chance of a poor journey from home we booked this hotel . The Airport ones were expensive and quite a few wanted to charge you for parking whilst you stayed overnight ,so they were out. When booking our stay at Best Western I thought less than ten minutes to Airport and pretty reasonable tariff . Lots and lots of free parking , WiFi that works and the room was very nice indeed ,big ensuite and comfy beds . Great value Thanks Best Western Plus .

"Christmas day lunch."
Liz M, 26 Décembre 2017

After a very successful Christmas day lunch 2 year's ago my family & I booked for the same experience this year. Sadly we were all very disappointed with the food,very limited choice, poor quality & very amateur presentation.Smoke salmon starter was a 'non starter'. Beef main course mean & tasteless. Turkey dinner bland! Butternut squash tart a joke. No way did the price reflect in what was served up. Redeeming feature good staff, very polite & helpful. No way will we be back.

Owner Response, 26 Décembre 2017

Good afternoon Liz M, Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to read that you did not enjoy your visit to us on Christmas Day. On the day all guests commented how enjoyable the food was as I walked around the tables and met with our guests. I am sorry that you did not mention the issues at the time which would have allowed us to rectify this for you. Could I ask that you contact me directly at your convenience so that we can discuss this further and provide feedback from which we can improve. [email protected] I look forward to hearing from you in due course. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Most Enjoyable One Night Stay"
X4871UHmargaretm, 21 Décembre 2017

The room was great and clean with a lovely view over the garden and the bathroom facilities were excellent. The room was a little warm to begin with but this was easily remedied - not a bad thing on a cold winter's night. The staff on Reception and in the dining room were all most pleasant and helpful and the food and choice very good.

"Better than i expected"
ghost-dog69, 19 Décembre 2017

Been to a few best westerns over the years. Tended to be at the bottom end of the scale. A bit run down and alike. This one is not like that at all. The room was new and even had that new room smell you get in show homes. Bathroom was clean and tidy. Lots of off-street parking. Alt better than I expected.

Owner Response, 19 Décembre 2017

Dear ghost-dog69, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay at the Pinewood Hotel. I am pleased to see that we managed to exceed your expectations. As a members organisation Best Western has become much tougher on the criteria to be a part of the brand and this has resulted in significant improvements across the board. As all of the hotels are independently owned and managed there will always be differences and we pride ourselves on being "Brilliantly Different" I hope that we can welcome you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Slightly disappointing"
amp-qld, 16 Décembre 2017

I stayed here my last night in the UK due to the easy access to the airport. I arrived at 1.30 pm, hoping to check in a few minutes early as I had an appointment at 2.30 pm. However, I was asked to wait in the lounge which I did. When I went back to reception soon after 2 pm, I got the impression that my room had been ready for some time. It would have been good if someone had come and told me when my room was ready. I found the room somewhat stuffy and oppressive and would have expected a mini fridge in the room in a 4 star hotel. On the other hand, the hotel was good value for money, the staff were friendly, I had a good night's sleep and I made my appointment (just).

Owner Response, 16 Décembre 2017

Dear amp-qld, Thank you for taking the time to submit your review of your recent stay. I am sorry that your room was not ready upon arrival but pleased that the team managed to check you in earlier than the standard 3pm check in time. Unfortunately we dont have mini fridges in any of our bedrooms but we do have a fridge at reception that is available for guests to utelise for medications and any other items they need to keep cool. I am pleased that you found the team to be friendly, they are our greatest asset. I hope that we can welcome you back to the Pinewood Hotel in the near future and look forward to meeting you then. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Wedding reception"
Tony J, 08 Décembre 2017

Overall a good stay, Hotel is clean and tidy with staff very helpful and considerate. Rooms made up and towering changed daily although I declined the service as I didn't consider it necessary or wanted. It would be better if the fan system in the bathroom would switch off at sometime, an observation not a complaint, unfortunately I was accommodated between storage rooms that were used as linen and towel refreshment storage. Overall a good stay and would recommend and stay again. Thank you

Owner Response, 08 Décembre 2017

Dear Tony J, Thank you for your feedback on your recent stay with us. I am pleased to see that you found all of the team to be helpful and considerate. Your feedback will be shared with them. Thank you for bringing to my attention the issues with the fan in your room, due to the description I have been able to identify it and the fan has now been adjusted. The bathroom fans are set to run for 15 minutes after the bathroom light is switched off however for some reason this one was running continuously. I do hope that we can welcome you back in the near future and look forward to meeting you then. Kind REgards, Hayley

"80's Night 1.12.17"
paulineevans1, 06 Décembre 2017

What a fantastic night we had. Three of us are celiac and the food was delicious. As we couldn't have the cakes, they very kindly made us fruit salad. I also had the problem that I can't have strawberries which wasn't a problem as they immediately made me a fruit salad without strawberries. Richard and the staff were an absolute delight, so pleasant and helpful. Please arrange another 80's night as we are all desperate to come back. Pauline

Owner Response, 06 Décembre 2017

Dear Pauline, Thanks you for your lovely feedback. This will be shared with all of the team and especially Richard. We are planning to run a full schedule of speciality evenings in 2018 and when everything is fanalised they will all be advertised on our website and through social media. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Hayley

"One night stay"
BuffyRocks, 24 Novembre 2017

We stayed for one night before our flight the next morning. Check in was smooth however when we reached our room found that it was a disabled access room meaning we had no bath and the wet room meant flooding the whole bathroom floor making any further visits to the bathroom very damp under foot. The toilet flush was weak. The room itself was small but annoyingly the radiator had a blue square glowing light directly at eye level when lying in bed which caused discomfort when trying to sleep. We skipped the overpriced breakfast which cost more than in the airport itself but did have an evening meal which I can only call average (the steak in Guinness pie was overly rich so the flavour was heavy and I left half as hard to enjoy). Would I stay here again? Probably not, there are more spacious hotels in the area who will allocate bedrooms with able bodied bathrooms. Perhaps I should have returned to reception to moan about the room when I arrived but it was a one night stay so figured it would be fine at the time until we used it. Lesson learnt.

Owner Response, 24 Novembre 2017

Dear BuffyRocks, Thank you for taking the time to write your review of the Best Western Plus Pinewood Hotel. I am sorry that you were not happy with the bedroom allocated to you or the food in the evening. It is a requirement of all hotels to have adapted bedrooms available and we take great pride in the fact that ours incorporate the full wet rooms and recommended safety features. Obviously for yourselves these features were not necessary and I am sorry that they made your stay less comfortable. Did you mention this to any members of the team whilst you were at the hotel? If so I am sure that, subject to availability, they would have happily moved you to an alternative room. The Steak and ale pie is a very rich dish and not to everyone's taste. As one of our winter warming dishes it is very popular and I am sorry that it was not to your liking. I do hope that the team offered you an alternative meal. Please rest assured that we take all feedback into account at our team meetings and we will be looking at the issues you have raised in order to improve our service for future guests. Should you return to the Pinewood in the future please do not hesitate to contact me directly and it would be great to receive your feedback in person, on what I hope will be a much more enjoyable visit. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Pre-flight stay"
Luke H, 23 Novembre 2017

Stayed here in August 2017 before an early morning flight Didn't see much of the hotel but the room was clean and bed very comofrtable. Hotel bar was chilled and staff were friendly. Good distance and travel routes to the airport so this is ideal for anyone looking for a nights sleep before/after a flight at Manchester AIrport The only slight issue was that when we first went to our room, a wet towel on the floor was holding the door open which seemed rather odd. Obviously we just moved this to one side but didn't give the greatest initial impression.

Owner Response, 23 Novembre 2017

Dear Luke H, Thank you for taking the time to post your review. I am pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay and found the team to be friendly. They truly are our greatest asset and your feedback will be shared with them. I am sorry that the team had left a towel in your room. Often housekeeping leave a towel on the door handle to signal that they are still cleaning the room or that it is ready to be checked by a supervisor. From your comment regarding the cleanliness I believe that it was probably the latter on this occasion. Sincere apologies for this. I do hope that this will not deter you from returning to the hotel in the future and I look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Loud music till midnight "
Stephen F, 11 Novembre 2017

Spent a Saturday night after a family function. Got back to the hotel to find a party going on past midnight. Wasn't told when booking, had to wait over an hour to go to bed. Went to reception, was told we should have been told when booking and there was nothing they could do as hotel was full. If you get a room on the second floor at the weekend, expect to be kept up! The rooms are dated and not to the plus level I'd expect of a Best Western. Much more like any generic dump half the price. Pretty scummy place with bare plaster on some walls and worn carpet. Avoid if possible.

Owner Response, 11 Novembre 2017

Dear Stephen F, Thank you for taking the time to write your review after your recent stay. It is disappointing to hear that you did not enjoy your stay with us and I would like the opportunity to speak to you further about the issues raised. We regularly host events at the hotel and all entertainment finishes at 1am. However guests that are not attending the events are allocated as far away as possible. Please could you contact me directly via [email protected] so that I can ascertain the date of your stay and the room that you were allocated in order to investigate further. Kind Regards, Hayley

"One night stay"
Elen M, 10 Novembre 2017

Hotel was easy to find and in a good location. Hotel very nice looking with a nice garden area loads of parking. Our room was fine although we had two single beds and the room got so hot we had to have the fan on all night after unsuccessfully trying to turn down the heating as the radiators weren't even on...very strange. Bathroom ok quite small but good shower and nice bath - a bit high to get in and out of and bath mats would be an idea - I read in the welcome brochure that they are available at reception but would be easy enough to provide for the convenience of guests. Enough towels and an iron with ironing board too. Television was small but had Freeview channels. Didn't order room service as the food seemed very expensive with £5 just for brining it on a tray - dominoes delivery was a lot cheaper ???? I would recommend this hotel and probably would return again ??

Owner Response, 10 Novembre 2017

Dear Elen M, Thank you for taking the time to review the Best Western Pinewood Hotel. All feedback is reviewed with the team in order for us to improve the facilities and service that we offer. I am sorry that you found your bedroom to be too warm, it would be great if you could make contact to let me know the room number and then we can investigate this and rectify the issue. We have recently introduced a new menu in the restaurant and lounge called "Something Simple" which should help with the costs of room service. This menu is designed to change on a daily basis which is why we cannot display it in the rooms. The menu offers two courses for £20 and 3 courses for £25 and is based on the daily fresh produce available from our local suppliers. I am pleased to hear that you would return and it would be great to hear your feedback on the new menu's at that time. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Comfortable one night stay."
Andrew P, 03 Novembre 2017

Booked 2 rooms here in October. Travelled as a family of four and stayed for one night. We enjoy the extra space of having two rooms - my son and I in one room, my wife and our 2 year old in the other. This only works well if the price is right, but this hotel was no more (maybe less) than similarly located Premier/Holiday Inns and the standard probably a bit better. Here are a few of my thoughts - 1. Location: we were visiting relatives in South Manchester (Fallowfield) and the hotel was around a 10 minute drive when the traffic was quiet. On the Sunday night we stayed we could have chosen virtually any hotel in the city but opted for the less-hassle option of heading away from the city and parking more easily. In this respect we were not disappointed - road links are good and the car parking seemed plentiful. 2.Service - cannot fault anybody who we met during the stay - check in was polite and efficient. Initially we had rooms on different floors but this was changed swiftly enough when requested. 3. Quality of rooms - I get the impression from the website and other reviews that some rooms are really impressive. My wife stayed in an executive double room and was happy enough. I found the room a little lacking in space and was glad to get to the other room we booked. I'm not sure what this room was - I'm sure we originally booked a double and 2 single bedded family room as our second room but this room had a double and one single. Obviously we changed our room on checking in so I was not going to query this. In any case, this room seemed much more spacious, the bathroom was bigger, it had dual aspect windows being on the corner of the building. Overall, I was quite happy spending time in this room. We also ordered room service, which seemed fine. Wifi worked fine. Everything about the stay was more than adequate. For me, a comfortable 4/5, possibly deserving a bit more though the double room just underwhelmed me a little. Although I'd be happy to visit again, it's not one of those hotels which wowed me and left me wanting to return.

Owner Response, 03 Novembre 2017

Dear Andrew P, Thank you for taking the time to leave your review of your recent stay at the Best Western Plus Pinewood Hotel. I am pleased to see that overall you enjoyed your stay and have shared your feedback with the team. All feedback is important to us as it is the best way of us focusing on the areas that most need our attention in order to improve both our facilities and our service. As you noted from the rooms they are all quite unique and there is quite a large difference between our standard and executive rooms. I have now had the opportunity to revisit a number of the double rooms and we have begun to implement a number of upgrades to the décor and facilities within them. I do hope that if you visit again you will approve of the changes and it would be great to hear your feedback on them. We look forward to welcoming you back to the hotel in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley Lane

"Overnight stay"
kathyIsleOfMan, 29 Octobre 2017

Stayed for one night before traveling to the airport .The hotel was pleasant disappointed that access to the leisure complex was by car due it being in Wilmslow. The food was good both in the bar and at breakfast . The staff were excellent and very skilled. Taxi service to the airport was efficient and a reasonable price. It was a good experience but do not think we would go again as there was nothing we could identify as “ special “

Owner Response, 29 Octobre 2017

Dear kathyIsleofMan, Thank you for taking the time to write your review. I am pleased to hear that you found all of the team to be of a good standard. They are our biggest asset and your feedback has been shared with them. I agree that it is not ideal for the leisure facilities to be external however the Total Fitness facilities, which all of our guests receive complimentary access to, are some of the largest and best equipped in the UK. We pride ourselves on our relationships with our external partners and always strive to provide the best facilities for our guests. I do hope that we will be able to welcome you back to the Best Western Pinewood Hotel in the future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Superb hotel. Just what we needed!"
Pennybry, 28 Octobre 2017

Stayed for one night and upgraded to Superior room. Stunning! Super king bed with sofa, armchair and coffee table. Bathroom was huge and beautiful. Large bath, large shower, fluffy towels. Perfect. Towelling robes and slippers provided. Fresh ground coffee and cafetiere. All immaculate. Ate in lounge bar - food was excellent and we'll presented. Breakfast was buffet-style. Food was hot and there was a good choice. Staff very pleasant and attentive.

I do hope that we can welcome you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Modern, clean and comfortable, loud event could have meant a bad stay"
Tommytiptoes, 23 Octobre 2017

I stayed at the Best Western Wilmslow Pinewood for one night, a Saturday night, for a work related trip. The day before I arrived I had a phonecall from reception to see if there were any specific queries or requirements I wished to run by them - a lovely, proactive touch. Nice. I needed an iron and ironing board and these were in my room when I arrived. When I checked in, the reception staff were really welcoming and efficient. No queue either. I was in a rush to get to my work appointment, so asked if someone could help me unload my car, which they did, and kindly took my things to my room. I was so grateful as this helped me to stay on time for an extremely important appointment! Spacious double room, everything I needed. Biscuits were particularly good! 40 inch TV. Clearly this room had been refurbished, probably within the last 18 months. The bed was lovely and comfortable, plenty of pillows, 2 soft, 2 firm. Loads of towels, good spacious shower, high quality modern fixtures (throughout). Decent quality shampoo etc. Only issue was the volume of the party in the function rooms downstairs. It would have been appropriate and (I hope) understood by the party goers, if the music was turned down after, say 10pm, but it went on until 1am. This didn't affect me tremendously; perhaps I was just tired, but I do see there being some lack of consideration here. I would't be surprised if other guests complained. Decent stay, nice quality, affordable hotel.

Owner Response, 23 Octobre 2017

Dear TommyTipToes, Thank you for taking the time to complete your review of the Best Western Pinewood Hotel. I am sorry that the music from the function was an annoyance. Whilst we take every effort to allocate bedrooms that are close to the functions only to guests attending the function we do occasionally miss people. On the whole it was lovely to hear that you had a pleasant stay and your feedback has been shared with the team so that we can make improvements for the future. We hope that we can welcome you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

288Brian1948, 12 Octobre 2017

My wife and I stayed at this hotel for one night on 20th September prior to flying out to visit friends in USA . I booked some months prior and a few weeks before our visit I checked out the recent reviews (some of which were far from complimentery) so I was a little apprehensive - I didnt need to be - dont believe those negative reviews - this is an excellent hotel , good food , attentive staff , and yes they DO help you with a taxi to the airport. We had an excellent and trouble free stay

Owner Response, 12 Octobre 2017

Dear Brian, Thank you for taking the time to post your lovely feedback. This has been sent around to all of the team as I feel it is important to provide praise where it is due. The team all work hard to ensure that our guests satisfaction is our number one priority and although no-one is perfect, and we don't always get it right, the team at the Best Western Pinewood Hotel certainly always try. I hope you had a fantastic time with your friends in the USA and that we will be able to welcome you back to the Pinewood in the future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Modern Hotel"
CheshireReviewer, 11 Octobre 2017

Having once lived in the area we returned for 3 nights to visit family. The room was modern, good wi fi, no bottled water and a bit stuffy. The room could do with better storage eg hooks by the door for coats, drawers in bedside tables and dressing table would be useful. It had a huge TV!! I know this is used by people travelling to and from the airport - hence the crowded carpark which we just managed to squeeze into. Breakfast was extra and as we don't usually eat this meal it wasn't a problem but this made the room rate a little more expensive. The bar area seemed to be frequented by a few local drunks - though not causing trouble it did bring the quality down a bit. I don't think this hotel caters for visitors of more than one night - they seem to be concentrating on the airport park and ride customers which is a bit of a detriment to others. The disco was quite loud too but it did end fairly early for a Sat night.

Owner Response, 11 Octobre 2017

Dear Cheshire Reviewer, Thank you for taking the time to complete your review of the Best Western Pinewood Hotel. I have only recently joined the property and all guest feedback is invaluable. I have now been around a number of rooms with our Head Housekeeper and Maintenance Manager and we have actioned several measures as a result of your feedback. Although most rooms have draws in the bedside tables the ones that do not will soon have shelves. All rooms are having coat hooks added to the back of the bedroom doors in addition to the hooks on the bathroom doors. We are looking to relocate some bedroom mirrors above desks so that they can be used as dressing tables. Regarding the car park we do offer a stay, park and fly service and will now be enforcing that guests using this facility park in the over flow car park rather than the main car park. I am sorry that the disco from the wedding disturbed you however this is why we have the strict rules that music stops at midnight. We are a popular wedding venue and this may also be why most guests appeared only to be in for one night as they were attending the function. I am pleased that you enjoyed your stay on the whole and thank you that your feedback has allowed us to make improvements for future guests. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Very good for the airport"
hotelinspectors2, 06 Octobre 2017

We stayed here in 2016 as it was much better value than the local budget hotel's and more convenient for the airport and parking. We decided to stay again in June this year before flying to Jamaica the main reason for staying here is there park and fly deal works out better value than the local budget hotels and airport parking, due to the hotel organising free transfers to and from the hotel I find this makes for a good start and end to the holiday. ARRIVAL / CHECK IN Parking in the long stay car park around the back of the hotel there was plenty of spaces available. The check in girl was very friendly and helpful telling us every thing we needed to know and arranging our taxi transfer for the following morning to the airport. THE ROOM The hotel called a few days before we were due to arrive and said all standard doubles were sold out and would we like and executive double at just £10 extra we decided to go for this. The executive double was a very good size room for 2 people the room was very clean and tidy with all the amenities you would expect from a hotel like this. THE BATHROOM the bathroom again a good size and very clean, I did notice some areas looking tired in the bathroom and some one seems to have gone mad with the sealant every were. The bed was very comfortable and we both got a good nights sleep. RESTURANT AND BAR We booked a table at the restaurant for the evening, being honest there was no need as it was dead only two other couples in there. PARK AND FLY the hotel has a separate car park for park and fly customers around the back of the hotel, plenty of spaces available, due to the over booking at T2 car park at Manchester airport we didn't want to take the risk and the price for the room and car parking was less than 1 weeks car parking at T2 great value for money from this hotel. to say how dead the restaurant was the service was quite slow and the staff not overly friendly or talkative. the food was ok but nothing special at all, the price as to be expected for this area was high. Generally a ok meal but nothing to write home about. the bar was very busy that night with a group of people who had far to much to drink they were being very loud and causing a nuisance. In my last review I mentioned the taxi drivers were very impolite and unfriendly this time round both taxi drivers were very good. We are looking to book soon of our 2018 holiday.

Owner Response, 06 Octobre 2017

Dear hotelinspectors2, Thank you for taking the time to complete your review of the Best Western Pinewood Hotel. I have spoken to the taxi company regarding the member of staff and although it would be impossible for me to know which individual drove you they have promised an improved service. With regards to the restaurant we have now introduced a new, lower priced menu in addition to our existing menu's so that we can cater for all tastes. The new menu is called "Something simple" and is just as it says, simple, honest, homely food at a good price. When accompanied by the rosette awarded 180 and seasons menu we are confident that both the quality and service provided by our food and beverage teams will impress you on your next visit. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Hayley

"Very impressed"
Kevin D, 05 Octobre 2017

We were using this hotel in readiness for an early flight the next morning, so we wanted peace and quiet and a good nights sleep, and we got it! We had a refurbed room on level three which was lovely. Could not fault the hotel at all, and would recommend the early bird deal at the Italian down the road.

"First class restaurant"
Lindyloo191965, 02 Octobre 2017

I was lucky to be able to attend a special tasting menu event at restaurant one eighty recently. Well, what an experience! The restaurant has a lovely relaxed atmosphere, the staff are attentive and professional and the food is amazing. The flavours and presentation of the dishes was exceptional, can't think of 1 thing to fault. This was my 3rd visit to this restaurant and definitely won't be last. Special thanks to the chef for such a special meal.

"Close to airport"
Blues79, 02 Octobre 2017

We stayed overnight before flying out home to Australia, we were really pleased with our choice, the room was spacious, clean and the bed was super comfortable. Plenty of parking and the wifi worked well. The hotel was close to shops and eateries. Everything you want and close to the airport.

"Overnight stay"
Viktorija A, 01 Octobre 2017

Visited the hotel on 01/10. I was checking in quite late, therefore emailed the hotel to notify them not to put me into no show. Got a very quick answer that they do not resell the rooms after certain time. Which is a very good thing! Check in was very quick. Receptionists organized me a wake up call, taxi, invoice for the morning and even a lighter. Rooms are very clean, however the only minus no bottled water in the rooms. Great service from Will, couldn't catch the name of the other receptionist. I would recommend this hotel and looking forward to come back again in a week!

"Excellent hotel for a short stay whilst travelling"
Gareth_Foster, 27 Septembre 2017

Nice hotel, perfectly situated for a short stay whilst travelling back to Australia. Within a 10min walk to a train station for easy access to Manchester City Centre. Rooms were nice and clean, comfy beds and the check in/out experience was seamless. Would definitely stay again on my travels to the UK.

"Overnighter"
kathyhaywood1948, 25 Septembre 2017

Staff very friendly and helpful. Wedding celebration in progress on our arrival. Rooms tired and in need of some cosmetic surgery. Restaurant small with limited menu. However the food was very good and caters for gluten free. Catered for our early morning departure and booked airport taxi for us.

Went for a family funeral so not the best of visits. Was told we would have a discount on room because of the funeral tea being held there. No discount because we booked through Booking.com. even though we were told it could be sorted out at the hotel. Not a helpful receptionist at all. We had a meal (9 if us) in the restaurant booked for 7.15pm....the menu should read...what we have left!! A joke at that time in the evening. The food was terrible and the chef should be sacked. Cannot fault the other staff who were fighting a losing cause and were commendable, esp. the lady who was there in the evening/morning and afternoon. For the money paid it was terrible and we would not stay or recommend it to anyone.

lethbridge, 19 Septembre 2017

Very nice hotel, easy access. Very close to the airport, £10 cab ride. Staff friendly and accommodating, room was very well decorated, the balcony being a huge plus. Very clean and well kept, bathroom bright and spacious. Would definitely visit again.

"Lovely Friendly Stafff"
Elizabeth V, 18 Septembre 2017

Stopped here for one night as en-route to Manchester Airport the following morning. Upon arrival staff were extremely friendly, curtious and helpful, the process to our room booking to transfer to the airport the following morning was excellent. The hotel has had a recent refurb since we last stayed there and must say the rooms are excellent, lovely colours and a warm comfortable feel to them, so spotless ... would definitely recommend and certainly stay there again when travelling. Well done all... keep up the good work..

"Pre flight stay to avoid the traffic"
sheppy01, 16 Septembre 2017

As we live an hour or so from the airport we decided to stay the night before so not to get caught out in the traffic. We arrived during darkness and rain so we didn't have much chance to see the outside of the hotel but it looked nice. We had a nice room which had everything we needed. We had a couple of drinks in the bar and had a snack from the bar menu. The hotel was very quiet but it was a Sunday night. In the morning even allowing for roadworks it was an easy drive to Manchester airport. We would definitely use the hotel again for early flights. Easy check in/out No problems at all.

"Lovely"
Nicky B, 11 Septembre 2017

We stayed here before flying from Manchester airport. The staff were very polite, the girl that checked us in was very chatty and funny. The hotel grounds are very well kept and the hotel itself is modern and comfortable. I would stay here again !

"No Airport Shuttle!"
svedros, 11 Septembre 2017

This hotel bills itself as an airport hotel, and although the hotel is close to the airport, the hotel does not offer a shuttle. Expect to pay 26 GBP (!) roundtrip. The hotel staff also refused to help me book the taxi, so I had to do that myself over Skype while abroad, and their recommended taxi service was not organized or efficient, so it was a scramble to get to the hotel. When I arrived, I discovered that my room was up several flights of stairs (hotel desk staff did not offer to help me with my luggage, I had to ask). I was in a single room, which was clean and comfortable, however the very loud noise of water rushing through the plumbing system kept me awake. All in all, this was a disappointment despite the Best Western brand.

Owner Response, 11 Septembre 2017

Dear Guest, Thank you very much for your recent review of the Pinewood on Wilmslow Hotel. I am very sorry to hear that your visit did not meet your expectations, we are 4 miles from the airport and do have a set rate with our taxi company, we do advise all our guests to book their taxi when they have arrived at the airport so that you are able to agree with the driver the best place for pick up.

"Never again"
Brian M, 10 Septembre 2017

My wife and I were unfortunate enough to stay one Saturday evening. We should have anticipated trouble after having been served the worst lunch ever, but not wanting to start our travels on a bad note, let it lie. We went shopping for the afternoon and returned to the hotel around 8 pm. OMG....ten feet from reception was a reception room with the door open and music vibrating the building. We couldn't even communicate with the staff to ask how long the music would be going on for it was so loud. Grim face we went to our room on the first floor above reception. Needless to say the floor was vibrating. As we were getting up for an early flight I decided to talk to the duty manager and find out when the madness would stop. It was going to be 11 pm for the live music to finish and midnight for the DJ's music to finish. We went to look at another room on the second floor which was no better, in fact a little worse than the room we were already in. It was now 10 pm and we had little option but to face a sleepless night. We insisted on a refund, which we received, however faced a 14 hour flight tired and worn out. NEVER AGAIN......

"Excellent experience"
abbafan, 01 Septembre 2017

We booked the park stay and fly package direct with the hotel as I couldn't find anything suitable on the usual holiday extras websites. What a great find! The whole experience from getting a phone call from the hotel prior to our stay to check if we wanted restaurant reservations to the complimentary taxi to and from the airport made a stress free start and end to our trip. All the staff were extremely pleasant, our room looked like it had been recently refurbished as everything was new, clean and modern. but the best part was dining in the hotel. The food was amazing. The chef really knows his stuff. Far better than the usual airport hotels. Will definitely be staying here again next time we fly from Manchester.

Owner Response, 01 Septembre 2017

Dear Guest Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback.

laszlof965, 01 Septembre 2017

Nice, clean Hotel. I got a double bed room which was perfect. Check-in and check-out easy and quick. Staff are OK, friendly. The Airport is very close, only 7-8 min by car or taxi. The breakfast is better than the average British one.

"Lovely hotel"
sabre99, 28 Août 2017

Stayed here for 2 nights in a executive room. Lovely hotel in a quite suburban area outside of Manchester, massive, comfortable bed in a good sized room. We had a nice view of the gardens at the back of the hotel. Room & bathroom clean & well maintained with complimentary toiletries. Good selection at the buffet style breakfast with tea, coffee & toast brought to your table, no waiting for those awful toast machines that either give you burnt offerings or warm bread. All staff we encountered were friendly and very helpful, even on checkout on the Sunday morning when we asked if it was OK to leave the car in their car park so we could have another day out in Manchester we were told no problem. The train station is a good 10 minute walk away with direct line to Manchester picadilly station. There are lots of places to eat out near the hotel although we didn't try any as we spent most of our time in the city. Would stay here again.

"A very good hotel close to Manchester airport"
Bryan G, 24 Août 2017

This was my first stay at this hotel but it won't be my last. It is well situated near to Manchester airport but far enough away not to be too bothered by aircraft noise. The room I had (superior) was large, very comfortable and well equipped to suit my needs. Wifi was good. I had room service food which was excellent and enjoyable. There are shops etc. a few minutes walk from the hotel. Breakfast items choice was varied and well presented. I look forward to my next stay!

Stayed at the hotel and had a meal in the evening, both my partner and I really enjoyed the food,I had the warm tuna stake salad and my partner had the duck. The staff were very friendly, helpful and cheerful. An all round good experience! We only stayed one night and the room was modern, fresh and comfortable. Plenty of parking and lovely garden

"Lovely hotel but far too hot!!"
roo91, 12 Août 2017

I have stayed here approx six times now on business. This hotel is very close to Manchester Airport which is good if you are travelling. The rooms are quite spacious with full tea and coffee facilities. Good selection at breakfast time too, staff are very friendly and more than helpful. Conference facilities are basic but they have coffee and tea on tap! The only drawback for me is that the rooms are very very hot it gets very warm at night, the window can be opened but there's very little air can get in. I have been offered a fan but it makes little difference and is noisy!!

Owner Response, 12 Août 2017

"Close to the airport parking but rather crowded that weekend"
silverfeet, 05 Août 2017

We arrived early and although we couldn't check in we were invited to sit in the lounge and buy coffee at the bar after we parked our car. We had arrived on a weekend of car clubs gets together. The foyer was filled with one lot leaving and another arriving and some, apparently, staying on. Oh, and there was the party for a 3year old girl - lots of shrieking, music and a booming PA system talking them trough party games. Time to check in, band on 2-00pm and a long wait for the lift to the 1st floor - lots of holiday cases, too heavy to walk up stairs. We got to our floor and found it full of enormous dirty linen containers and lists of busy staff. Unsurprisingly or room was on the others side of them. A well equipped room and good bathroom but out luggage took up a lot of the floor space and it was somewhat of an obstacle course to get from one side of the bed to the bathroom. Returning back downstairs to explore we again had a long wait for the lift, when it arrived it was full of dirty laundry containers and staff. We walked down. I'm sure this hotel is usually less disorganised but I was glad we decided to not have breakfast but leave early for the airport.

Owner Response, 05 Août 2017

Dear Guest, Thank you for your review of the Best Western Plus Pinewood on Wilmslow Hotel.

"Nice hotel, close to the airport"
ajt_austria, 01 Août 2017

This hotel proved to be a good price for a hotel so close to the airport.Reception and staff were friendly, the hotel clean and the room comfortable. It's everything you'd expect from a Best Western. The hotel has plenty of outdoor free-parking.Cost of a taxi into Manchester centre was approx £25 and £18 with Uber (off-peak). Nice choice if you need a good hotel close to the airport.

Claire S, 28 Juillet 2017

We stayed here the night before our holiday. The hotel is clean, fairly spacious and well decorated. The staff were lovely and it was just what we needed for the night. Although we didn't eat at the restaurant, it looked very nice and if I was to return I would definitely try their food.

"Good reliable place to stay"
Elizabeth D, 24 Juillet 2017

I stay here occasionally when we have a family gathering and we need to stay over. The rooms are always clean and the service good. Last time I stayed however the breakfast wasn't great. Everything was a bit over cooked and not that hot. The last time we stayed was for a family birthday. We stopped in at the bar for a last drink and the barman was a bit abrupt and slow. Also £22 for three drinks on my bill the next morning was a bit of an unpleasant surprise.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2017

Dear Elizabeth, Thank you for taking the time to post your feednback following your stay at the hotel.

"Family party with overnight stay"
Sian H, 19 Juillet 2017

The staff were particularly helpful. We had booked a room 'without stairs' for our elderly mother who had difficulty with mobility. When we arrived we found all rooms only accessible by lift and her room unsuitable as it had a bath not shower! We should have specified disable access. The staff scoured suitable rooms to change. The hotel was totally full making this difficult, however they did manage a room swap and upgraded our mother.

Owner Response, 19 Juillet 2017

Dear Guest, Many thanks for taking the time to review your recent stay at the Pinewood on Wilmslow Hotel.

"Nice hotel - lacking in friendy service"
777williamf, 19 Juillet 2017

Nice hotel, but lacking in friendy service. Everyone (except the bar staff) seemed distant and made you feel inferior (I am an owner of 3 successful business'), and care deeply for MY staff. Do not expect late check out without cost, period. No shuttle to airport (Taxi only). Restaurant nice but unpretentious.

Owner Response, 19 Juillet 2017

"A comfortable hotel"
Sarah A, 18 Juillet 2017

This is a clean and comfortable hotel close to main routes and Manchester airport. Breakfast is tasty and plentiful but don't bother with dinner. The menu is extensive and fussy and the food.....well ordinary and expensive for what it is.

"Pre flight stay"
tyketto, 17 Juillet 2017

Stayed her last year before our flight, had the superior room which was fantastic, full on comfort, enjoyed it so much we are returning this year before my special birthday trip to Italy, and bringing the kids, again superior rooms. Thanks to all the staff who were so helpful, and made the start to our holiday a very enjoyable one. We had our evening meal here also, which was quite good value, and really nice. The hotel is only a short drive to the airport , and in a good area. Thanks again guys see you on 31st august .

"Grate hotel but.?."
Arthur R, 16 Juillet 2017

We are BW platinum and do not expect to pay for water in the room never experienced this in any BW including Castle Green Would recommend this hotel as the staff are good but management very thin on the ground On a lighter note a guest/ cast beer would be a good idea Rooms clean and functional Will visit again

"One of the best"
loveamerica2001, 13 Juillet 2017

Greeted at 3am, with pleasant smile and offer to help with luggage. The room was beautifully decorated, very restful pale and deep greens. Immaculately clean and bed soooo comfortable. Breakfast was excellent, cooked my egg on request to perfection, all the staff were so helpful, even the young man on work experience. Can't mention just one name, all staff were so pleasant.

"Perfect stop"
justmybit, 12 Juillet 2017

Very quiet hotel, far from the train station, but closer to the airport. We booked it thinking it might have a shuttle, but no such luck. The room was a good size, but with twin beds and no air conditioning. Although, it was cool outside, it was a bit stifling in the room and the window did not open all the way. The staff was very helpful and the hotel was very clean. A good place to stay if you don't mind catching a cab to the airport.

"Good location clean friendly staff"
480jennieh, 12 Juillet 2017

Ideal hotel for Manchester city centre or the airport. Rooms clean and tidy, great breakfast lots of choice and large free carpark. Wifi good speed and lifts to floors which is helpful with a pushchair. Can be a bit pricey but is worth it for standard you receive.

"Taxi from airport a disaster"
mandihorwood, 11 Juillet 2017

Stayed here mainly to take advantage of the park and fly offer. Sounds great and worked well from the hotel to the airport. The room itself was adequate for our needs. However, although we followed the instructions for the taxi pick up on return and having been told one would be there in 10 minutes, it was actually an hour of standing by the information board and several calls before the taxi arrived. We complained to the reception manager who sympathized and offered a cup of tea but frankly the cost of the taxi at least should have been refunded. Poor service with no explanation as to the delay. Will not use thus hotel again.

Owner Response, 11 Juillet 2017

Dear Mandi, Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback in regards to your recent park and fly package at the hotel. It is disappointing to read your comments about the experience you received on your return journey from the airport, would you be so kind as to call myself at the hotel so that I can discuss your feedback in more detail? I will certainly communicate your comments to my team and ask my Reception Manager to discuss your feedback with our taxi company to ensure other guests do not experience the same issues as you have. Thank you again and my apologies for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards, Marc Smith General Manager 01625 529 211

"Substanadard Accommodation for a Double Room."
Nicholas V, 04 Juillet 2017

The room was very small with very poor amenities. Did not have a fridge which I required to put my medicine in. This room had very little space to move around and storage of our luggage was very limited. Where we were accommodated was very noisy and every time a guest open the fire door it was very loud. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

"Disappointing and noisy."
Stanhope10, 01 Juillet 2017

Booked two nights in an executive room as this was advertised as being 'more spacious' than the standard room. I would not describe our room as spacious at all, it was on the smaller than average size for a hotel room, I have stayed in Premier Inns with bigger rooms. It was also a bit dark and the decor and furnishings were in need of a complete make over as it was very dated. However the biggest problem was how noisy the room was. We could hear every conversation of people in the hallway and unfortunately hear explicitly everyone's visit to the toilet and bathroom in adjoining rooms. There were a couple of functions in the hotel on the Friday night which went on till 1am with loud music which kept us awake. Our room was immediately above the function room and bar. Unfortunately we were not advised when checking in that functions were happening which is usual practice. The bar and restaurant were very pleasant and staff very friendly, we had a snack in the bar which was very good. Breakfast was ok . The cooked food was very good but the rest of the selections pastries, yogurts, fresh fruit exc. left a bit to be desired. Looked dry, and very little choice. When we checked out we mentioned the above to a member of staff. She advised that our room (110) was one of the quieter rooms. Not sure how! Bearing in mind that this is a BW plus, we would consider staying here again.

scottpR1906TQ, 30 Juin 2017

I had a fantastic room, it was massive but think this was becasue I booked last minute and it was all they had left, it was quite pricey!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable, though small basics of cleanliness were missing ie mirror not clean, glass with lipstick mark and coffee mug not clean, bathroom had hairs in bath and floor, wardrobe woodwork dusty.

We have just spent three nights at the lovely hotel. Couldnt fault the staff or service. My partner was doing the 10k run in manchester. So only a short train ride away from hotel. The only problem was that the noise and bad language from a guest attending a wedding at the hotel was quite bad. It carried on till early hours of the morning . When we told reception staff the following morning they did appologise and said they had a wedding party in the next night too and it shouldnt be too bad ..... although still noisy there wasnt any foul language ..

"One night stay for airport convenience "
Liz C, 23 Mai 2017

Checked in by a pleasant member of staff who arranged for help with our bags, although no trolley's are available perhaps that is something to look at in the future. The room was clean with a queen bed but the window is security wired so will only open a few inches and as there isn't any AC that might be problematic if we get a good summer in Manchester! We booked an evening meal which was nice with plenty of choices for food and drink, after a rested night sleep ( I would ask for a room at the back next time away from the traffic noise, not excessive but nevertheless) we had a buffet breakfast which was freshly cooked and my husband assures me the coffee was really good, check out went just as smoothly and again we were helped with our bags, it is just a short drive to Manchester airport so we arrived refreshed and relaxed.

I stayed here for a night a few weeks ago. The location is very convenient for Manchester Airport, and is a half hour drive from the city. There's local shops and restaurants within walking distance in the village. The receptionists were all really friendly and check in was very quick. My 1st floor room was a little on the small side but was fine for a night. It was well decorated and had plenty of desk and storage space. The bed was comfortable and the ensuite was clean. The bar is reasonably priced, the staff are friendly and the garden is a lovely peaceful place to relax with a drink in the evening. Overall a pleasant stay- I'd happily return if need be (which I'm sure it will!) and the would definitely recommend this BW for a stopover.

"Airport stopover - Noisy wedding"
leckco, 15 Mai 2017

An ideal stop over, lovely hotel. Shame about the extreme noise BASE - BANG BANG from a wedding. I would think the thumping noise was exceeding the legal limit. Only consolation was that it finally stopped at midnight. If you have an early flight, check first if there is a wedding going on.

Owner Response, 15 Mai 2017

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I do apologise that you suffered from noise disturbance from the function that was taking place in the Hotel the night you stayed. It is noticeable that other guests were also disturbed from reading the other Trip Advisor comments. Would you be so kind and contact me at the Hotel at your own convenience so that I can discuss your concerns in more detail.

"Not All Quiet on the Best Western Front"
Errol789, 14 Mai 2017

Attended a wedding at this hotel Friday and Saturday night. We arrived on Friday evening and on booking in at reception were told they had an event on. Our room was on the 2nd floor 2 floors up from the event so we would not be disturbed by noise. If the reception staff believe this to be true they must never have stayed in any of their rooms. The noise from the ,event, finally stopped at 1.15 am. That was the time we actually managed to get some sleep. Unfortunately the experience was repeated on the Saturday. We were even further away from the disco but it did not stop the constant drumming. I can only assume that when the rooms were added to the hotel there was inadequate insulation and soundproofing installed. It may be ok midweek but if you are booking with a view to staying prior to a flight from Manchester Airport I strongly advise you enquire if they have any events on that particular evening.

"Lovely hotel spoilt by noisy party"
Pete H, 13 Mai 2017

Lots of parking & a warm welcome on arrival. We were advised at check-in of a function that was taking place in the evening, but the receptionist said as we were on the 3rd floor it shouldn't affect us too much. We went out for an evening meal & returned around 21:00 to find the function in full swing. After going up to our room we found it was too warm (it had been a sunny day) so we opened the window. This unfortunately meant we could hear the loud music from the function. So we were left with a dilemma. Have the window open & be unable to sleep because of the noise, or have the window closed & be unable to sleep because the room was too warm. We decided to leave the window open. But we did not expect the function to continue until 02:00! Breakfast was good, but all in all, we did not enjoy our stay as we were unable to sleep. This spoilt what would otherwise be a lovely hotel. We do not plan to return, and based on our experience we will not be recommending this hotel.

"Safety and comfort and customer service is unheard of at best western"
strawberrys28, 12 Mai 2017

This is the second time i have stayed for business . Yuck yuck yuck. Customer service is non existent . I was put in a twin room that was approximately 10 foot by 10 foot . No air con and no opening window . It was a sauna . I asked to chane rooms that one that had adequate ventilation and was told they were all booked up except for one above a function until 1/2 am . I advised I wasn't here for work and needed to sleep and was told tough luck. At 130 pounds for two nights with no breakfast it's too much to ask for sleep. How is this even adequate h&s when the window is locked shut and can't be opens until 8 am , and no air con in a box room which is without exaggeration a sauna . I have pre hooked pinewood best western for several Months stay and will be looking at cancelling . Whatever you do I sincerely advise you don't stay here .. you may be lucky to get one of the rooms that has been done up and has a window or you may not . Apart from that customer services that says at 10pm tough luck is way outnofmoreer !

Owner Response, 12 Mai 2017

Dear Triona Thank you for your feedback and my apologies that the bedroom that you were allocated was not to your liking. The bedroom that you were originally allocated is one of our smaller twin bedrooms, however the room is well equipped, maintained to a high standard with cleanliness standards to match. I took it upon myself to check the bedroom today after receiving your comments, Saturday 13th May. The bedroom is in very good order and the sash window opens a good distance to let fresh air in. Unfortunately we do not have air-conditioning in the guest bedrooms, however we do provide a fan upon request. I will make contact with you whilst you are staying at the Hotel to discuss your feedback in person. Thank you again and I look forward to meeting you over the next few days. Kind regards.

"Fabulous hotel"
janemac, 10 Mai 2017

We stayed here for one night before flying from Manchester on holiday. We would normally stay on the airport but so glad we didn't. This hotel is an absolute gem! We had a fabulous double aspect bedroom in the old part of the building looking out onto the lovely gardens. Our two course evening meal was perfection but wine a little over priced. Breakfast was equally good and the dining room also looks out over the garden. Friendly and helpful staff who made us feel very welcome. We will certainly stay here again next time we travel through Manchester...well worth the extra taxi fare to get here. We feel like we started the holiday from the moment we arrived in the hotel!

Owner Response, 10 Mai 2017

"Excellent Service"
Missoula20, 09 Mai 2017

Stayed one night here before a flight from Manchester Airport. Booked in for Room Only plus taxi to the airport (15 mins. drive) and back again a week later to retrieve our car. Taxi service very efficient. We had dinner at the hotel. The food was good. Wine fine too, but expensive, but this is par for the course at airport hotels. Our room was fine, but the radiator was horribly noisy and warm, despite being turned off (it was a warm night). I phoned Reception and a member of staff arrived within five minutes. She said she didn't have anyone on site to deal with the fault, but she would move us to another room on the same floor, if that was OK? We were fine with that and the room happened to be an executive room at no extra charge. The member of staff was very helpful and we were impressed with the customer service.

Owner Response, 09 Mai 2017

Dear Guest Thank you so much for your positive feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that your concern with your bedroom was dealt with immediately and that you were moved to one of our Executive Bedrooms which I am sure that you enjoyed. I will certainly communicate your kind feedback to my Team. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Our wedding"
Howard R, 08 Mai 2017

We had our wedding breakfast and evening celebration at The Pinewood on Wilmslow on 30th April 2017. From the first time we went to view the hotel until we booked out we were met with the utmost politeness and professionalism. The staff made our celebration an amazing event by the manner and helpfulness. Our guests stayed over and joined us at breakfast and again the staff were truly helpful. The room for our celebration was beautifully presented and we were able to leave everything to them, leaving us free to party.

Owner Response, 08 Mai 2017

"Should have been 5* but let them selves down badly "
spud1961, 07 Mai 2017

Working in Wilmslow for 4 nights so based on reviews, this was one of the places to stay, so I did. Everything was as on the box described, ate in the restaurant very deserved of the 2 rosettes. Wifi great, room decor all good shower pressure could be a bit more stronger for me, but that's just me, all in all a great experience so far. Then Saturday afternoon /night arrives and then it went to s##t. Firstly after working a particularly hard day, was having a quick snooze in the Arvo and off goes the fire alarm, not once twice, 3times and more. In the end, I rang reception and was given an explanation that there was an issue with the ventilation, that's it. My issue is why, didn't the hotel let the guests know via public address system, what was going on instead of me having to ring and find out, the guest across the way, got out the shower ventured into the hallway to find out what was going on, very un professional on all accounts and certainly not the best health and safety practices. This leads on to the highlight of my visit, whilst I fully understand that your venue caters for weddings/events, I can't for the life of me understand why paying customers, and you certainly are not the cheapest option in the area, need to be subjected to hoards of pissed up wedding guest marauding through the hotel, shoe less in a lot of the case, imagine if I had done that on a non wedding night, basically making it like a Friday night in Blackpool. Some one actually spewed up in front of the lift. The noise kept me awake till past 1am, and your answer, two a4 sheets, blue tacced, with a request to try and keep the noise down as guests might trying to sleep Well done chaps, it didn't work and lastly to top it all off, somebody scrapped the side of my van, I'm assuming pissed up trying to get out, but I'm only guessing but a pretty good guess I'm betting. What started as a great visit become a truely awful experience.

Owner Response, 07 Mai 2017

Dear Guest My sincerest apologies in regards to your recent experience at the Hotel. It is disappointing to say the least that you suffered from noise disturbance from the Wedding guests and the inconvenience of the fire alarm sounding on several occasions. We eliminated as quickly as possible the reason for the fire alarm sounding which was due to the amount of heat being generated from a candy floss machine in one of my function rooms. Unfortunately the fire alarm wont reset until the detector heads are clear of an disturbance hence why the alarm sounded on several occasions. We did silence the alarms as soon as possible so not to cause to much disruption. On busy nights we do put quiet signs on the corridor doors and in the lift to encourage guests to be mindful of other guests sleeping. My apologies that your Van was damaged in the Hotel carpark, very disappointing I must say and unacceptable. Please do contact me at the Hotel to discuss your concerns in more detail, my contact number is 01625 529211. My apologies again for your disappointing experience. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"Really excellent would highly recommend "
monkeyhan, 06 Mai 2017

If your looking for an airport stop over dont bother with the horrible overpriced hotels round the airport stay here. Lovely tranquil setting, absolutely spotless room, comfortable and modern. Nice well Lovely grounds, this is a really great example of hotel that the owners take a real pride in looking after. Great staff. Only 5 mins to the airport. Nice area with local shops and pubs. Plenty of free parking. Highly recommended.

"A little gem in Manchester"
Anneniven, 04 Mai 2017

In short fab hotel amazing food. Comfortable bed and great staff. Lovely gardens at the back to sit in and relax. I only stayed one night but wished is was longer. Very convenient for Manchester city.

"Room with a View..."
Karen W, 03 Mai 2017

Loved this hotel, I booked a superior room with balcony -it was gorgeous! Thoughtfully furnished and stylishly decorated. I had the best nights sleep in the king sized bed. I will be a regular whenever I'm in the area on business! Super standards thank you!

"Brilliant Hotel but bathroom a little on the small side!"
Tony S, 25 Avril 2017

Booked in for a night while attending an event in Manchester. Got to the hotel late in the evening and car park was very busy but lucky its also on the large side so this wasn't an issue. Check in was quick and easy as we had pre-paid. Room was on the 3rd floor and was very nice, clean and tidy. The only small issue was the bathroom was a little too small no bath just a shower (a bath would have not fitted in). However saying that the room was quiet and comfy. Breakfast was nice, lovely sausages and quick service. Overall would happily stay here again, Very nice hotel!

"Great nights sleep after the flight home"
Sara232323, 20 Avril 2017

I booked a superior room as I knew our flight would get in late and this hotel looked good and was handy for the airport/our parking. It was our first trip abroad, just the two of us since our honeymoon 20 years earlier and i wanted somewhere nice. The room was lovely and spacious with fruit and bottled water, lovely comfy bed and well fitted bathroom. The cooked breakfast was really tasty, but I have to mention the granola bar where you could mix your own cereal - finally no dried fruit (made me happy anyway). Great staff, clean and comfortable room and lovely food. Finished our short break off perfectly. We've booked again for this year (with the kids this time, wish us luck). Looking forward to another visit.

"Great loction for luxury travellers"
DanCarmody, 20 Avril 2017

Me and my girlfriend stayed at this well-situated hotel prior to our flight out to Sicily in July. It's ideal location to the airport, scenic gardens and luxurious, countryside-esque presentation made it a top choice when choosing our pre-flight slumber destination. Being in early holiday mode, we made excessive use of the bar (be warned - bit of a toll on the wallet). The bar area was a very relaxing and friendly environment, consisting of leather sofas and televisions showing live sports. An extensive range of drinks and bar food is also available However, as we were on the liquid tea menu, I couldn't comment on the standard of food. Please note, the reception and bar area were quite rowdy due to a wedding currently taking place (a regular occurrence I'm led to believe). However, if you are wanting a quiet evening, do not let this put you off, you cant hear anything once on the above floors where the rooms are. Following a good skinful and a stagger to the local village for a kebab we retired to the room to get some sleep. The rooms were above-average standard, complete with comfy beds, regular amenities and a pleasant, clean bathroom. If you are wanting a luxury stay ahead of jetting off to a holiday destination, this is definitely worth considering.

Owner Response, 20 Avril 2017

Dear Dan Thank you for your positive feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that you enjoyed every aspect of your stay and I do hope you both had a great time in Sicily. Thank you again and I will certainly communicate your kind words to my Team.

"Noisy by the lift"
leannec1984, 19 Avril 2017

We decided to stay here as it was half the price of on airport hotels. Everything was fine with the hotel, the room was comfortable and it wasn't too expensive to get to the airport the following morning. The main issue was that we were in the room next to the lift. Every time the lift arrived it made a loud 'ping' which went on throughout the night. Another issue was that people getting in and out of the lift throughout the night at 1am, 2am, 3am etc. didn't seem to have any awareness of the locality of the bedrooms to it so chatted away at quite a volume. In a normal hotel this probably wouldn't be quite as much of an issue but with this being near the airport people are coming and going at all hours. We had to be up at 4am to get our flight and I felt like I had an hours sleep in total. So overall, I'd recommend this hotel if you want a cheaper night before you fly but if you get to your room and its next to the lift it might be a wise idea to ask to move.

Owner Response, 19 Avril 2017

Dear Leanne Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I do apologise that you suffered from noise disturbance from the Hotel lift whilst trying to sleep.

Avreel, 16 Avril 2017

Just back from one night stop over here and have to say had a fab time. The hotel is lovely and spotlessly clean and the gardens are beautiful and lovely to sit in and relax. I didn't eat in hotel but chatting to others there they said the food was very good. If you fancy heading out to eat can recommend the Bulls Head had a wonderful meal here and staff were great. It is only about a 10/15 minute walk from hotel. Will definitely stay here again

"Bargain offer"
Achnacloich, 16 Avril 2017

I stayed at the Pinewood when in Manchester on business primarily because they were running a special Easter offer of bed and breakfast making this hotel the most competitive in the area. Hotel is close to Manchester airport and the centre of Handforth with its restaurants and shops. There is a large car park and plenty of spaces though those on the far side of the garden require quite a walk to reception. When I arrived I was warmly welcomed and quickly checked in. The reception staff were very friendly and ensured that I was made aware of the busy periods in the restaurant and where all facilities were located. I was allocated an “accessible” room on the third floor that had been recently refurbished. The room was clean and bright with a large double bed covered in the now obligatory array of cushions. The bed was very comfortable with a firm mattress and soft pillows. All the usual facilities for tea and coffee making were provided plus some very nice shortbread biscuits. An iron, and ironing board were tucked away in the wardrobe. Due to the large “accessible shower room with wet area the room was smaller than normal and with the table and armchair a little cramped. There is no air conditioning and heating is from a very effisient electric heater though the control panel is so bright it acts as a night light if left switched on. The shower room was vast with a large wet area for the shower. It was brightly lit with excellent lighting over the mirror and a plentiful supply of toiletries. Towels were large, fluffy and soft. The shower was very inefficient with very low water pressure. Not the best to rinse away the nightime cobwebs. Breakfast was served in the restaurant and for once no issues with toasters as toast and tea or coffee is prepared and brought to your table. However it does mean coffee lovers cannot have the variety that is available from self service machines. There was a good selection of fruits, Kellogs mini pack cereals, fruit juices and cold meats on the buffet. The cooked breakfast was limited to bacon, sausage, egg, saute potato, beans, tomato and mushroom. Scrambled and poached eggs were also on offer. Throughout breakfast the staff were very efficient, quickly clearing away empty plates and offering more toast, tea or coffee. Overall this was a good value stay, though at normal rates there is better value to be found in other local chains. Would I stay again, absolutely as at these rates it is great value, but at normal full price perhaps not.

"Quiet and ideal "
itfc_scott, 12 Avril 2017

Clean, spacious rooms, although lacking a bath if that's important to you. Large TV in the room with facilities such as an iron, kettle, safe, hairdryer. A pub, along with a different range of takeaways and restaurants are just a short walk away, if the restaurant on the ground floor of the hotel is too expensive for your liking. You won't find anything such as a gym, pool, spa etc here - but then again, a lot of places don't offer this service. Parking is off road and feels safe and secure. Staff are friendly and make the stay easy. The Metrolink (East Didsbury) is just a 10 minute drive away where you can park for free and jump straight into the centre of Manchester. Would stay again if the correct price became available.

"Still good but room for improvement "
Modon20720, 09 Avril 2017

We have stayed here as a couple and loved both the room and the restaurant, but this time booked our daughters in too. We had a room in the new block which was not up to the standard of our previous stay, NO BATH, which was unexpected for the price. The room was also uncomfortably hot with no way to override the safety catch on the window to enable more than a 2 inch opening, and no air conditioning. The restaurant served really good food, but the service was somewhat erratic as they really busy with a wedding and it eventually trailed off completely. We would have liked coffee but everyone had disappeared. It was still a good night's stay but I'm not entirely sure we received the service we expected for the price.

We got married at the end of February and needed a room block for our guests, I dealt with Ruth the Reception Manager and she was just great. Any changes or new bookings she very confirmed them in a prompt manner, also Ruth kindly upgraded our room which meant the morning of our wedding when I was getting ready with family and friends there was plenty of room. On the night before the wedding we also had a nice meal in the restaurant area, breakfast both mornings was very nice too. Thank you Ruth you were fabulous and a credit to the hotel.

Crazysurfkid, 28 Mars 2017

Stayed here prior to a meeting I was having in Stockport. I can HONESTLY say it was an absolute delight - from entry to departure. Reception (Sarah?), was welcoming and efficient. The room was slightly on a smaller scale than most hotel rooms, but it was well laid out. Clean and well stocked incl safe. Dinner was DIVINE. I had the burger and truffle & parmesan fries, which I still think and talk about today. Service was also excellent. Nice area to relax with a drink afterwards. Plenty of parking + free WiFi. Exceptional hotel with exceptional food and exceptional staff.

"Good quality, reasonably priced"
Thea R, 21 Novembre 2016

We stayed here because most of the hotels in Manchester were full or ridiculously priced due to the Christmas market and big Mancs vs Arsenal match. A little bit further out than we would have liked for a city visit but great for the airport. All staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful - a joy to be served by staff from the area as it lends to the sense of place when you're travelling. The decor generally was good, bedrooms well appointed, beds comfy and rooms quiet. I would have liked a hairdryer in the room, but I'm sure reception could have provided one, so a relatively minor point. Breakfast in the morning was of a good standard and the buffet generously provisioned. Would stay here again.

"OK...."
Roscoe1967, 18 Novembre 2016

Close to the airport, which is why I stayed there. The staff seemed like I was bothering them when checking in or ordering food and drink at the bar. The room was difficult to get to, had to get off on the third floor, go up stairs, down stairs, and finally found my room after a maze of a hallway. Room was VERY small with tiny shower. It was fairly clean.

Although listed as an airport hotel and 15 minutes from the airport you are not aware at all of the planes, nor people coming and going in the night o catch planes. We had one of the third floor new rooms, lovely finish, very comfortable bed and quiet. We had asked on phoning in advance for a quiet room and it was all noted on our reservation. Breakfast good choice hot and cold. Very friendly staff made it a good stay.

"A REAL TREAT"
Bandrat, 13 Novembre 2016

We have just had a three night stop at this hotel, and must say what a pleasure it was from the moment we parked the car. Yes a car park with ample space. On getting to reception we were greeted by a lovely warm and friendly receptionist who took care of all the booking in side of the visit. Into the room and what a great feeling of cleanliness and comfort. Superb. Warm and friendly staff throughout with nothing being too much trouble. Public transport into Manchester is virtually right outside the hotel on the other side of the road. It takes about 50min but saves all the parking worries. The one and only downside we could find was the cost of the restaurant. There are other restaurants just down the road in the village of Handforth should you so wish. All in all a very worthy stay. Thanks to all the staff.

Owner Response, 13 Novembre 2016

Dear Guest Your kind comments are much appreciated, thank you. It is very encouraging to read such positive feedback about your entire stay at the Hotel. My apologies that you found the Hotel Restaurant expensive and I will certainly take your comments on board when we review the new Restaurant menu. Thank you again and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"Positives outweigh the negatives"
Welshman_on_2ur, 13 Novembre 2016

Stayed here for one night with a party of delegates visiting the UK. Prior to arrival: Due to the M56 being closed as a result of a bad accident, we arrived about an hour and a half late. During that tortuous journey to the hotel, the front desk staff were excellent in providing information to us about the closing time of the restaurant etc. Location: A bit out of the way, but a nice semi-rural setting; plenty of car parking but not so good for a coach. Check-in and out: Smooth and organised; providing luggage storage for a short period of time etc. Restaurant: Good quality late meal with very good service for a group of people; extensive buffet breakfast. Public areas: Tastefully decorated with a comfortable bar area. Bedroom and bathroom: I was in a standard double and it was comfortable, albeit rather dated. The bathroom had some dubious grouting and mastic work - not up to 4* hotel standard. Our driver was in a single room and he informed me that he struggled to sleep because of the size of the bed. To sum up: The hotel served its purpose well as a last night stop-over before going into Manchester for the day and then flying from Manchester Airport. All members of staff we encountered were polite and friendly and all in all, it turned out to be a good overnight stay.

"Excellent hotel stay"
Fazer199, 12 Novembre 2016

We stayed here the night before our holiday in October 2016. we found this to be an excellent hotel in every respect. The staff could not be more helpful, and the hotel is very nicely appointed. Our room was clean and comfortable. Although the restaurant and bar looked nice, We did not eat here as we wanted to go into Manchester. We were advised of the location and distance to the train station by the hotel receptionist (10 minute walk). We chose the park and stay option, and paid £108 for the room + 17 nights parking! this price also included a return taxi service to and from the airport. Absolute no brainer if flying from Manchester airport. Highly recommended.

"Great location"
Karen B, 11 Novembre 2016

This hotel was perfectly located for our flight out of Manchester airport and close to restaurants. Staff was helpful and friendly and the rooms were clean. The area was quiet and the grounds were lovely. Worth walking around if the weather is pleasant. Plenty of free parking.

"Truly Shocked"
Tom C, 10 Novembre 2016

We had a lovely looking large room but the noise from a golf club party below was extremely bad. We complained but were told there was nothing they could do. The next day we met a manager and were granted a ~50% refund and told that they had never had any complaints about noise in that room. Looking back through TripAdvisor, we see numerous complaints, so they knew all along that we would have had a problem. They should never have let the room to anyone other than someone attending the party. Even then, they would have been disturbed by staff clearly up afterwards and very loud plumbing sounds.

Owner Response, 10 Novembre 2016

Dear Tom My sincerest apologies in regards to the noise disturbance that you experienced whilst staying at the Hotel. We do from time to time have a none-resident function taking place whereby many of the guests are local and do not stay over at the Hotel. When the Hotel is fully booked with none function guests we do allocate as best as we can so that noise disturbance is kept to the minimal. We also ensure that all guests are made aware upon arrival of what time the music will finish and on this occasion it was around midnight. I am so pleased that one of my Managers discussed matters with you in the morning when you departed and gave you a 50% refund. My apologies again for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Really nice "
Tarryn K, 04 Novembre 2016

Recently stayed in one of the suites of the hotel. Really lovely spacious room with lots of complimentary goods. Had room service from the hotels restaurant, excellent food. Bed really comfortable so really good nights sleep. Good selection for breakfast- cooked breakfast and continental available. Would be nice if breakfast did cater for allergies so for me the selection was slightly limiting. Very friend staff at the hotel and I would stay there again.

Andy606, 03 Novembre 2016

Will definitely stay here again. 15 minute drive to the airport. Room was really clean and comfortable. Staff were both friendly and efficient, and we had a lovely meal in the restaurant. Also very good value for money compared to many of the other hotels around the airport. Totally recommend.

" Rey good airport option"
Tim P, 29 Octobre 2016

This was a real surprise. We had fairly low expectations of a c.£60 per night hotel near an airport, but this place appears to have received a comprehensive re-fit fairly recently and is therefore modern, comfortable and quiet. A ten minute drive to the airport makes it very convenient for an early morning flight, and we will certainly stay again when the need arises. We didn't try the restaurant or breakfast, so can't vouch for either ( though the evening and room service Menes looked fine).

"Cant complain and food nice"
KRColeman, 28 Octobre 2016

This is a decent hotel, staff are helpful although the layout of the hotel means you dont really get a chance to see them. Its a bit convaluted and hard to find rooms but you get a mix of people there coming for all sorts of different events which makes it fun, the breakfast is nice too. Much better value for money than the more expensive average hotels in Manchester

"Perfect for the Airport."
MissPowell, 26 Octobre 2016

I needed a comfortable, reasonably priced, easy to find hotel with 24 hour desk, and easy journey to Manchester Airport. The roads around the airport can be horrible in the morning, especially on a Monday. I needed to check in late, park my rental car, check out early, drive to the airport, return my rental car, and get to my terminal with minimal problems. This hotel provided everything I needed. Perfect spot for an early morning drive to airport. Friendly staff, wake up call, tea kettle in room, comfortable, spotless room. good night's sleep ....perfect. (And even a clearly marked route to the airport, and a petrol station en route ....perfect!).

Owner Response, 26 Octobre 2016

Dear Miss Powell Thank you for your encouraging feedback in regards to your overall experience at the Hotel. I am so pleased that every aspect of your stay was enjoyable and that you found my Team very friendly. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Don't rely on a wake up call!"
joandaly27, 25 Octobre 2016

Overnight stay for early flight was not a good experience - no wake up call as requested and WORSE, they sent my taxi away!! I woke by chance at 4.40, rushed down to be told the taxi didn't know the room number so they sent it away. I was not pleased! I did get to the airport later than planned but it was not a good start.

Owner Response, 25 Octobre 2016

Dear Guest My sincerest apologies for this situation occurring. I must say this is very unusual practice and I will certainly discuss your comments with my Reception Team so that my other guests do not experience the same issues as you have done.

"Park & Fly Package"
BeachBum713, 24 Octobre 2016

Myself & my mum stopped here for 1 night before our flight the next day from Manchester. The staff were all very polite & helpful. When we arrived and checked in the receptionist said we wasn't booked down for breakfast, having explained that we had already paid for this when booking the room she soon sorted this out for us, I think her name was Kathryn. We had some dinner in the bar area, which was very tasty & a few drinks. There was a wedding on at the time so the atmosphere in the hotel was great. We had a twin room which was perfect for a one night stay, slept well & couldn't hear a sound from any other guests. Breakfast in the morning was buffet style, help yourself. It was great, lots of choice from cereals, continental, to cooked breakfast. Tea, coffee, juice etc. Within the park & fly package we got a twin room, breakfast each, parking for 3 nights & also a taxi to and from the airport, the hotel use a taxi firm called Lynx & they book the taxis for you when you check in. On the morning we checked out waiting for our taxi, after half an hour it still hadn't showed up, reception gave them a ring for us and the taxi firm said they hadn't received a booking for us. Which was a lie as i got a confirmation text through on my phone, however after reception phoning them they sent one out straight away. They was also about 45 minutes late picking us back up from the airport, even after we had rang them to say we had collected our baggage! So the only fault was the taxi firm, the hotel was great & would stay there again!

Owner Response, 24 Octobre 2016

Dear Guest, Thank you for your positive feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased you enjoyed every aspect of your stay and I will certainly communicate your kind comments to my Team, especially Kathryn my Reception Supervisor.

Had a fantastic time at the wedding and my little 1 year old daughter enjoyed her stay too!

Matt l, 24 Octobre 2016

Me and my new wife Danielle just wanted to say a massive thank you to the Pinewood team. The feedback is a little late but it really was the best day of our lives and the Pinewood did not disappoint us. We had over 100 guests for the day and around 170 total for the evening and everyone we have spoken to since said what a wonderful venue it was and how good the staff were. A special mention to Lucy who co-ordinated the wedding for us on the day and had everything running to a tee and made us feel massively at ease as soon as we arrived. We really cannot fault anything about the hotel from the rooms to the food on the day which was superb. Thank you so much for all of your help in making the day extra special for us and sorry about the delay in feedback. Thanks Matt and Danielle Lillis

"Jacqui Temple "
Jacqui T, 23 Octobre 2016

I believe in praise where it's due, we stayed overnight for a family visit. From arrival to checkout, this hotel was faultless. Our executive double room was gorgeous with a very comfortable bed..and the little touches were all place for you , pillows were numerous lol and the decor was modern and light....a flat screen on the wall opposite the bed made having a morning cuppa very comfy....a big plus for me was the staff...from night to day the staff were friendly and attentive...breakfast was hot with plenty of choices even though we were almost at the end of breakfast service. Overall I'm very impressed...lovely relaxing overnight stay..

"Good quality hotel"
davedarkins, 20 Octobre 2016

Ample parking on arrival, reception staff friendly, efficient and welcoming, reception area, bar and restaurant warm and comfortable. Had booked a balcony room, not particularly useful in Manchester in October, but would be nice with decent weather. Room large and well equipped and nicely decorated, bed very comfortable, bathroom clean and asthetically pleasing, only negative was the glass shower door which wouldn't stay in position, allowing water to flood the floor

Owner Response, 20 Octobre 2016

Dear Dave Your feedback is much appreciated, thank you. I am so pleased that you enjoyed all aspects of your stay at the Hotel and that you found my Reception Team friendly.

"Good Hotel for Park & Fly "
MyReviewsonTA, 17 Octobre 2016

Stayed here before our flight from Manchester Airport, good clean rooms in the new building and we found the staff very friendly and helpful. Didn't use any of the other facilities, including bar or breakfast, so can't comment on these. A word of warning if your planning to leave your car in the car park for a few weeks or so, watch where you park your car and make sure it's not under one of the many trees in the hotel grounds, as you may return to a car covered in leaves and tree sap, and the inevitable clean up job. Perhaps the management could think about bringing this to your attention, by placeing a warning note on the taxi pick-up information sheet that is handed to you at check-in.

Owner Response, 17 Octobre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. Your kind feedback is much appreciated, thank you. I have certainly taken on board your comments about the tree sap and I will look at reviewing the Park & Fly form with my Reception Team. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Great hotel for Manchester airport"
Tolroy, 15 Octobre 2016

It was meant to be a simple overnight stop before our flight. Being a touch delayed we rang in to see if we still had time for dinner. Our experience from Sophie at reception who was super attentive and helpful to Karen the restaurant manager, was first class. Above average food, tasteful well designed bedrooms, attractive surroundings and a 10/15 drive to the airport. On top of that very good value price when we booked. Thanks a great stay to start our holiday. On important point. There are two Best Western hotels in this area with Winslow in the address. Just make sure that your satnav has the correct one. They do weddings.

"Very Good Overnight Stay"
Magnificentmo, 12 Octobre 2016

We stayed at The Pinewood the night before our holiday flight We arrived at the hotel following a horrendous journey through thunderstorms and torrential rain, indeed the hotel had been flooded at the entrance. On arrival we were told that our room had been upgraded and as this was my birthday this was a lovely surprise. Dinner was lovely apart from my choice had run out. Compensation was a glass of Prosecco for my husband and I. Unfortunately the taxi booked for our transport to the Airport was delayed by 1/2 an hour apparently due to the taxi firm not picking up the email. The staff were lovely, friendly and polite. It would have got 5 stars but for the taxi problems

Owner Response, 12 Octobre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel.

"Okay hotel but with paper thin walls!"
GringoStarr27, 12 Octobre 2016

The hotel was well presented on arrival with friendly staff, and since we were only there for 1 night before an early morning flight, the room was basic but just what we needed. Unfortunately for us - and for others I'm sure - the walls are paper thin! I could hear every word from the guests next door, and when trying to get an early night for an early flight, this was annoying. Having eventually gone to sleep, we were then woken by next door's alarm which was as loud as our own alarm would have been. So, even though the location is okay for the airport and the rooms are great for a quick stop over before a flight, don't expect any peace and quiet!

Owner Response, 12 Octobre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I do apologise that you experienced noise disturbance from the guests next door to you.

CrazeeChik67, 05 Octobre 2016

We stopped here for one night while son was having a party at home!! Very welcoming when we arrived, easy check in. Room had plenty of room for wheelchair. Very comfortable beds (twin beds). Excellent shower room, plenty of room and even had a shelf to put shampoo and shower gel on, which most wet rooms don't. Large smart TV with great picture. When we went into bar there was a wedding do going on in the function room, so was a bit noisy but not bad. When we went up to room coud not hear any noise.

"Not a good experience this time"
Maz99EastYorkshire, 05 Octobre 2016

We have used this hotel a number of time for park & fly from Manchester and have in the past been very satisfied with the accommodation but unfortunately not this time We arrived late Friday afternoon and were booked into room 245, there was a wedding party going on so it was busy but not unduly so and we went straight up to our room. Room quite small but sufficient for just the one night so we sorted our bags out and rested after our journey. We went out to eat and arrived back at about 7.15pm and as we had a very early flight we showered and settled down to watch some TV before getting some sleep. However, we were over the room where the wedding party was going on, although we were two floors up and the noise was extremely loud, we could hardly hear the TV or the music going on below. After about an hour I rang reception and asked what time the disco below would finish and was told 1pm, I then asked why we had been put in that room why not put some of the wedding guests in there that were at the party. We were offered another room quite a way away and told we could leave our luggage in the original room and just sleep in the new one, I went to have a look (in my pyjamas, meeting other guests on the way) that room was lovely, I asked why were we not offered that one originally and was told it was a new receptionist!! Anyhow it was quite a way away and it just didn't seem realistic to be tripping about the hotel in the early hours in our night clothes so we declined. We had to be up at 4am so had roughly 3hrs sleep, needless to say neither of us were in the best of moods the following morning. They did refund us 50% of our bill for the inconvenience but we now would not stay there again. More thought needs to be put into putting guests into the correct area of the hotel according to their needs, If you are booking a park & fly I would check whether wedding or parties are going on because they do a lot of them and where your room would actually be.

"Noisy overnight stay"
JNW51, 04 Octobre 2016

We stayed here for one night after a late flight into Manchester airport. When we arrived the reception area was full of noisy and drunk wedding guests. The staff were trying their best but were clearly under severe pressure. We were told the bar was open (1.15 am) but was so busy with argumentative customers and a harassed barman that we gave up on any hope of a nightcap. The room was large and well equipped. We were allocated a disabled room (assume that all other rooms were occupied) which was next to the lift. We did not get to sleep until 4am due to constant noise from the wedding guests outside the room - some people really are very inconsiderate. Whilst we accept that it's not the hotel's fault that folk get drunk at receptions they should surely make sure that non-wedding guests are not grossly inconvenienced. To cap it all we found a biscuit under the bed which does not speak well for the cleaning staff and whoever does the checking. The taxi service works very well to and from the airport. On any other day of the week bar Saturdays this probably a reasonable place to stay.

"Weddings"
bigpaul22, 03 Octobre 2016

This is a very good hotel, we used it for an overnight stay before flying off from Manchester airport. It is set in a very pretty location which attracts wedding venues, the only issue we had was attempting to access the bar which was over run with wedding guests, its time the hospitality industry woke up to the concept of adequate staff during busy periods. That was the only gripe otherwise we would have given a 5 star rating. The staff were very pleasant and helpful, the room clean, comfortable and quiet, the taxi service to and from Manchester airport was seamless a very good park and fly service. We will stay here again.

Owner Response, 03 Octobre 2016

Dear Paul, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased to read that you enjoyed your overall stay, and found the Park & Fly service we offer suitable for your needs. Both our function rooms do have their own bars, however during the wedding turnarounds, which should take no more than an hour, the wedding guests do use the main bar. I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Thank you again, and I look forward to welcoming you back to the hotel in the near future. Kind regards, John Scott General Manager

"Great stoppover for airport"
Stupotran, 01 Octobre 2016

I like Best Western hotels , never had a bad one yet , again this came up to standard & was great for an overnight stay for the airport Approx 10 minutes drive. Nice clean room with an amazing shower .. Only one bad point & I let it go as they seemed to be under pressure, I came down for breakfast & had to find a table for myself , asked for some coffee & was asked rather abruptly if anyone had taken my name & room number WHOOPS SORRY , however all was soon put right as a senior staff member had overheard & I was very quickly served with fresh coffee & lots of hot toast. Wi fi is a little slow but that's normal in hotels, & what can you expect it's free anyhow. Over all a pleasant overnight stay & I would go back again ...

"Great hotel with parking"
kamaso, 28 Septembre 2016

We recently stayed here the night before we flew from Manchester airport. We also parked our car here for 2 weeks. The reception was lovely and a very pleasant and helpful lady on duty. She booked us a taxi for the airport upon request. Our room was spacious, extremely clean and the bed was very comfortable. We did not have breakfast due to an early flight so can't comment on this. However we did have a meal in the restaurant and it was superb. Would definitely return.

Owner Response, 28 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest Your feedback is much appreciated, thank you. I am so pleased that you enjoyed every aspect of your stay and that you were looked after very well. Thank you again and I will certainly communicate your kind words to my Team. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Best at Best Western"
Dezza63, 28 Septembre 2016

As always this hotel was the best, friendly staff, convenient location. Restaurant good value for money and quality excellent. reasonable price and points too if you join Best western. Hotel and rooms clean and tidy. Will probably stay there next time I am at Manchester Airport

"Better Than Most"
itfb, 27 Septembre 2016

If you are going to stay anywhere near this hotel and you want decent internet and a fair price choose here. I realize this is not a big comforting endorsement, when the choices are worn out cookie cutter premier inn hotels with the half a MB of free internet data and daily fee of 5 L to update to 5 MB. The BW Pinewood is a great find, now I would personally prefer the Raddison with its larger rooms, air conditioning and fast Internet. The BW is a safe bet, I would consider this place again for an extended stay. My coworker tried the breakfast and could not handle it, which is why I never tried, check it out before you consider prepaying for it. BTW Internet in the room was tempermentle but when it worked you get 35 MB at no cost.

Owner Response, 27 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I have certainly taken your comments on board and I appreciate your honesty. It is pleasing to read that you would choose the Pinewood Hotel again as your preferred Hotel in the area. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Fantastic!!"
Andrew T, 27 Septembre 2016

We had a late return flight back from our holiday so decided to book this hotel as it was pretty close to the airport and on the way home. Even tho it was early hours of the morning the gentleman on reception was jovial and very polite and had a couldn't do enough attitude. He explained everything clearly and precisely and left us in no doubt about where everything was and the facilities available to us. The room itself was super with everything we needed accessible and simple to use. The tea, coffee and biscuits were a welcome sight. The bed was was extremely comfortable and we had an excellent nights sleep. The breakfast room was easily found and we were seated immediately and offered tea/coffee and toast which arrived within minutes. The breakfast itself was buffet style although you could order speciality items if required (Kippers and the like) There was an excellent array of cereals, fruits, yoghurts and pastries. The quality of the cooked items was exceptional everything was hot and very tasty. Our whole experience of this hotel was fantastic, we will definitely stay again and highly recommend it. This is a four star hotel with a five star quality and attitude.

Owner Response, 27 Septembre 2016

Dear Andrew Your feedback is much appracated and welcomed, thank you so much. I can see that your customer journey from start to finish has been one to remember for all of the right reasons.

"Superb"
andy-mary, 26 Septembre 2016

We stayed overnight prior to flying from Manchester airport. Our room was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean with good bedding and soft fluffy towels. It has a very welcoming feel to the lobby when entering the hotel. Our meal at the restaurant was fabulous, the slow cooked belly pork is a triumph to the very creative and competent chef. I would stay here again even if I wasn't going to the airport.

Owner Response, 26 Septembre 2016

Dear Andy Thank you so much for your kind and wonderful words in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I will certainly communicate your feedback to my Team. Thank you again and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regrads. John Scott General Manager

"Commercial style hotel"
Buncrew, 25 Septembre 2016

Adequate for what it is. A bit soul-less. Handy to have a Tesco store five minutes away. Our room was over he kitchen/restaurant and far too hot. Housekeeping quickly provided a fan. No issue from them.. They must know the small window which only opens a couple of inches is in adequate. Also, the hotel information indicates use of a gym and sauna. This is a bit of a con. Yes you do get to use these facilities but they are away from the hotel which requires a short drive.

Owner Response, 25 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that my Housekeeping Team reacted so well and provided you with a fan due to your bedroom being rather warm. As you rightly mention the leisure facilities (Total Fitness, Wilmslow ) are off site, around 3 to 4 minutes drive, my apologies that this was not made clear. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Very good hotel for the money"
hotelinspectors2, 24 Septembre 2016

We had booked a flight from Mancester airport that would leave very early in the morning, we normally fly from Mancester and stay over the night before. We would normally book Premier inn as its close to the Airport and we have stayed there before but they were asking £90 for one night I felt this was very expensive for a Premier Inn A quick search on Booking.com bought up this hotel at only £57 I thought there had to be a catch a best western at only £57 surely not!! I booked the hotel expecting a sort of 70's bed and breakfast but was very surprised by how nice this hotel is! We arrived very late at 11.45pm the man of reception was friendly and checked us in but I did struggle to understand him as he spoke quite broken English. We had booked a twin room as this was on the £57 deal and due to our late arrival and early departure we would only spend 4 hours in bed any way! The room was a good size and looked clean and modern. The bathroom did look abit tired in areas but every thing worked and it was very clean. A few days before we arrived I realised I hadn't booked car parking for the airport looking on the airport website showed parking was limited and prices sky high £100 to park in the multi storey for 7 days I called the hotel who said they offered parking and had a separate car park onsite for long stay parking, they were a lot cheaper at only £40 for the week and included free taxis transfers to and from the airport I thought this was excellent value for money. On a site note both taxi drivers were very rude and didn't help with loading or unloading of our cases. We will defiantly look to stay at this hotel again next time we fly from Manchester

Owner Response, 24 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I can see that the majority of your stay was on to remember for all of the right reasons, however there is no excuse for the Taxi service that we provide our guests to show a lack of customer service, rest assured I will deal with this matter. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Nice hotel slightly let down by service (and very early binmen!)"
UkJammin, 24 Septembre 2016

I stayed at the Pinewood for 2 nights whist attending a meeting in the local area. In advance of my visit I emailed to say I would be arriving late and included my Best Western rewards details which I asked to be associated with my booking. On arrival at around 8:30pm I was told by the receptionist that my booking was Room Only and asked if I wanted to pay for breakfast. I told her I was sure it was booked on a B&B basis and even showed her the confirmation email but she insisted breakfast was not included. I was charged £20. I emailed my company to confirm the details of the reservation and the following day it was confirmed I was booked in on a B&B basis and they had contacted the hotel who would be refunding the amount charged to my card. Upon check-out there was ample opportunity for the same receptionist to apologise for the mistake but she took the opportunity to blame the booking for not being clear. The same also happened to another of my colleagues also staying at the hotel I wasn't welcomed as a BW Rewards Diamond member and didn't receive any of the advertised benefits of the loyalty programme. Whilst raising this might seem a bit petty in the grand scheme of things, Best Western constantly promote the virtues of being a member of their loyalty club - so the 'over promise and under deliver' makes it worse. The glass recycling bins (all 5 or 6 of them) were emptied at 6:15am on Thursday morning and even the heaviest of sleepers couldn't not be disturbed! The above niggles aside, the Pinewood was modern and clean, my room was small but had everything I need including a very comfortable bed. I ate in the hotel bar one evening and the food was tasty although the portions were rather small for the price (see other reviews for recommendations of places to eat locally - there's quite a bit of choice within walking distance). Breakfast had a good selection of hot & cold buffet and the dining room has lovely views over the garden. Despite the negatives above, I would give the Pinewood another go, as I was probably just unfortunate in my encounters with some staff.

Owner Response, 24 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest First and foremost my sincerest apologies in regard to your concerns raised. I will certainly discuss your comments with my Reception Team in regards to your reservation and the way in which you were dealt with. Being woken up by the emptying of the bottle bins is unacceptable, my apologies and I will certainly get to the bottom of this. Your issues raised will be dealt with in the appropriate manor and I do apologise of the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Thank you. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

Stopped in the Hotel for one night due to early flight the next morning from Manchester Airport, The room was better than expected. Large room with lots of space. Clean, tidy and cheap to book. Stayed in a family room, would love to have stopped for a longer period. Very happy with this hotel !!

"Very nice hotel but let down by cold reception !"
arozario, 18 Septembre 2016

A really nice hotel, clean and comfortable. Have stayed there several times. On last visit the breakfast service was non existent but my main complaint was the cold unwelcoming and unhelpful attitude of certain receptionists - not all I hasten to add as one of them was the extreme opposite.

Owner Response, 18 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your feedback and thank you for giving me the time to discuss your concerns in person when you checked out. It is very unusual to receive a complaint about one of my Team Members and rest assured I have deal with your comments in the appropriate manor.

"What a Great stay"
Tony M, 18 Septembre 2016

We just had a great stay at this super hotel where the staff are friendly and helpful. The food is well served and cooked to perfection. Wonderful selection of breakfast items. Our room was extremely hot (probably due to being on the top floor with a flat roof on the hottest days of the year) Would highly recommend this hotel with its lovely gardens to enjoy. Overall this was a good choice. Thanks to all staff.

We stayed here on Thursday 8th September before flying from Manchester.From entering the hotels very smart interior to the welcoming smile from the receptionist the hotel has a really good look about it.The room was nice and comfortable and we ate in the restaurant at evening and the food was excellent (I had the pollock )delicious and presented really well.The location was great for the airport taking only 9 minutes in the morning with a punctual taxi they had ordered for us.I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for excellent accomodation and we ourselves will certainly use this again.

"Would have been excellent if we had different room 2nd night."
Ada C, 16 Septembre 2016

We stayed here prior to flying from Manchester. We're given a great room very big with bunks as well as kingside bed. Bath and walking shower seperate. Good tea tray. Hairdryer, safe, iron, fan. - great. Can't comment on restaurant as didn't use it. We're room only. See reviews on Dilshad (indian) and Helles (greek) both easy walking distance and great food. We paid extra £40 for park and fly included private taxi to / from airport. (Good value as a taxi one way to airport is £10) On our return from holiday we booked to stay again we arrived at 8.30 am and had been told in advance we could check in at 10am. Room was ready for 10.15 which was great as regular check in not till 2pm. Many thanks for that. Only problem with room (306) was the heat !!!!! Even with fan going and window open it was stifling hot day and night. With only double bed which after the super king in Mexico felt tiny !!! No bath in this room but very large shower and all other facilities. This room did have a lovely garden view.

Owner Response, 16 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. Your encouraging comments are much appreciated and I will certainly communicate them to my Team.

Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Overnight stay before travelling from Manchester Airport"
dvin2015, 14 Septembre 2016

Excellent overnight stay and delicious meal in the restaurant. We didn't require breakfast as we had an early start to the airport. We were met at the door and helped with all our luggage including golf bag. Easy check in by friendly staff. All luggage taken to our very comfortable room. We intended eating out but the restaurant menu looked varied and appealing. Our meal was truly delicious. We would definitely recommend this hotel and would certainly use it in the future for our overnight stays when we need to travel from Manchester Airport. It's only a very short journey to airport by taxi. All organised by the friendly staff on reception.

Owner Response, 14 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest What wonderful feedback, thank you.

"Good impressions"
Peter S, 13 Septembre 2016

Spent one night there last week on a business trip and was very impressed. 16 of us were booked in for dinner and the food came out hot and was very nice, apologies to anyone else in the restaurant as some of the conversation on our table tended to get a bit loud. Staff were very friendly, breakfast was also very good and given that it is close to where we normally have our meetings, we intend to use the hotel as a base again. Downside was the temperature in my room and it was a very warm night. Other than that, very nice hotel.

Owner Response, 13 Septembre 2016

Dear Peter Thank you for your kind feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that you found my Team very friendly and the food offering both at dinner and breakfast to your satisfaction. My apologies in regards to the bedroom temperature. We do supply fans to all guests if needs be to cool their bedroom down. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Pleasant night near Manchester airport"
Hamutal F, 13 Septembre 2016

I arrived at about 1 am, after an exhausting flight. The receptionist was nice and efficient. The room was clean and comfortable (room 115, 2 single beds). My room amenities included full body mirror and standard complementary tray with cookies and instant coffee and tea. Both were very useful to me. I connected easily to the Wi-Fi, which supplied very satisfying surfing experience There is no airplanes noise from the airport, but I did have some usual noise from the corridor and adjacent rooms. I took a taxi from Manchester airport and paid 23 pound. I am not sure if it is the usual fee.

"Great Place for Short Relaxing Break"
zeinab1, 13 Septembre 2016

Stayed here for a few days to relax. Nice welcome, easy check-in, all staff were friendly and helpful, beautiful well cared for gardens to sit in (weather permitting) and nicely decorated. Room with free WiFi, tea/coffee making facilities + biscuits, TV with many channels, clean, comfortable bed, nice bath & shower with plenty hot water and lovely towels. Asked if possible to stay an extra night and was given a good price. Various events held whilst I was staying there and I even received an apology if the noise from a wedding disturbed me (but it hadn't). Food/drinks reasonable prices. . Bus stops very close to hotel in both directions towards Manchester and Macclesfield. Also walking distance (approx 10 mins) to train station. Small variety of shops, take-aways, restaurants and supermarkets just a few minutes walk from hotel. Not far from the airport, they don't have a shuttle to the airport but can arrange a taxi for you, the cost of a taxi is £10 Would recommend and definitely stay again when in the area and need a place to relax.

"wedding guest"
blondie102, 09 Septembre 2016

Attended a wedding reception at the Pinewood in August 2016. The dining room was decorated beautifully. The staff were lovely and we were looked after. The meal was okay but it could have been better. One guest didn't get the vegetarian that had been ordered. The over night stay was alright. The breakfast was really nice.

Owner Response, 09 Septembre 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to the Wedding that you attended at the Hotel.

i would just like to say how absolutely fabulous our son Martin and his bride Charlotte's wedding day went at the pinewood hotel. Everybody who came have all said what a great venue this hotel is. the rooms were well kept and very clean with big lovely comfy beds. The food and drinks were excellent as were all the staff led by the main man John Scott who was brilliant and couldn't do enough for us. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone.

"Good stopover"
robert w w, 04 Septembre 2016

The pinewood is a good hotel for a short stopover break but not a longer holiday . The hotel is clean and well-appointed rooms are good not great but the staff and bar / restaurant areas are lovely . The Hote is on a busy road but has nice grounds to chill out in (if a bit noisy). Breakfast was great buffet style with a good choice . We didn't eat in the restaurant but walked down the road where there is a lovely Italian restaurant which was fabulous .

"Hard to find, poor customer service"
Burgesskpc, 28 Août 2016

It took us a couple of hours to find this hotel, which was advertised on-line as being in the vicinity of Manchester International Airport. It is definitely "off the beaten path." On check in, we were asked if we would like to upgrade to an executive king suite for an additional charge. We prefer king-sized beds, being tall people, so we said yes, and paid the extra. We were shocked to find what, in the U.S., would be a double or queen bed (not sure which--definitely not a king bed). Moreover, the clerk would not refund the money, despite having (probably unintentionally?) misled us. On the positive side, it was very clean, and the bed was on the new side of the spectrum. It is in walking distance of some local restaurants, which was nice.

Owner Response, 28 Août 2016

Dear Guest, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel.

mel_2010Derby, 27 Août 2016

Shocking customer service booked over four weeks ago just checked in to be told double booked and that the person who has checked in to our room booked one week ago, totally ruined my bank holiday weekend should be here for two nights for relaxing break, no manager available have to wait until the morning, our payment was taken four weeks ago and confirmation sent of room yet none of this seems to matter, disgusting service

"Great short stay"
Modon20720, 26 Août 2016

We stayed for just the night, arriving after 7.30. Staff were very welcoming and happy to book us in for dinner at 8pm. The room was spacious and cool , as they had opened the window, unlike many stuffy rooms we've experienced before. The dinner was expensive but worth it, really lovely and interesting. The printed menus, with two separate menus didn't reflect the sophistication of the cooking, and having the wine list upside own at the back didn't add to the experience. Breakfast was again excellent. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Owner Response, 26 Août 2016

Dear Guest I must say your kind words are much appreciated and welcomed, thank you. I am so pleased that you found your bedroom spacious and cool especially in this freak hot weather that we have been experiencing. My Executive Chef and his Team work hard to make sure that the menu offering is of a consistent high standard which has certainly come across in this case. Breakfast in my view is the most important meal of the day and my Team work hard, ensuring that the offering and the presentation of the food is of a high standard and that the customer service in the Restaurant reflects. Thank you again and I will certainly communicate your kind words to my Team. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"The best this area has to offer"
I-am-JC, 21 Août 2016

Working away from home for long periods can be tedious and monotonous but having stayed at the Pinewood hotel for four to five months has made it all the better. This hotel is extremely well run and managed which is a great credit to John and all his staff. Every single night I have stayed here has been a pleasure. There are a good number of other long term repeat clients staying at this hotel and that in itself is testament to the quality of the hotel and its staff. The hotel is well appointed with nice communal areas, lovely outdoor spaces, easy parking, relaxing lounge bar and restaurant and welcoming reception area. I have stayed in a number of room types on all the floors and each and every room was more than adequate even for extended stays of five or more consecutive nights. The beds where always very comfortable and the bathrooms perfectly adequate. The standard of housekeeping is excellent. On nearly 100 nigh stays at this hotel the room was cleaned fully and all items replenished every single time. I never once had to ask for anything. How often can you say that about other hotels! The staff here are absolutely brilliant. I have witnessed the hotel at full stretch and all the staff always seem calm, friendly and professional no matter what the situation. The check in process is streamlined and always met with a smile and friendly hello. The restaurant serves decent food nicely presented and I never had to wait for my food even when the hotel was at full stretch. I dined here on nearly every single night I stayed and never had a reason to complain. The prices are about average for the area so shouldn't break the bank. Breakfast is a buffet affair with a good selection of items to suit most diets and as always there is a friendly welcome from the staff. Obviously having stayed at the hotel for about 100 nights I am well placed to observe the day to day running of this place and genuinely can't find a single fault or cause for complaint and that has to be a great credit to the manager and his staff. I would like to extend a very special thanks to Bobby and Alan behind the bar who work hard but always have a friendly and welcoming smile and are obviously very efficient. For me there is one stand out member of staff who has always impressed me greatly and she has always made time to help me with local knowledge, improve my language skills and just generally cheerful, polite, efficient, courteous and friendly so a very big extra thanks to Monica. Whilst I have named certain members of staff here I think all the staff deserve full credit for the way this hotel feels and runs. They are the heartbeat of the place and the manager should feel justifiably proud. Whenever I am back in this area this will be the only hotel I will call at. I have tried all the others and believe me this one is miles better than any of them.

Owner Response, 21 Août 2016

"Excellent Hotel"
David S, 09 Août 2016

Great Hotel with friendly and efficient hard working staff. Our room was a Superior type on the first floor and we didn't even hear a door bang in the hallway, very peaceful. Very large room with Sofa Area which if I'd more time I would have used!

Owner Response, 09 Août 2016

Dear David Wonderful feedback, thank you so much. I am so pleased that you enjoyed every aspect of your stay and that my Team looked after you so well. I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Stay, Park and Fly"
Dawn T, 08 Août 2016

We stayed here the night before our early morning flight from Manchester Airport. The package was room, parking and private taxi transfers to and from the airport. Lovelly hotel that has just been referbished. There was a wedding reception the night we stayed which didn't encroach as much as you would think.The room was large with a king sized bed and brilliant bathroom. I can't comment on the food as we ate at a local Indian Restaurant ( Dilshad - fantastic! ). Our taxi was booked for 3.45 am and arrived 10 minutes early. On returning after our holiday we rang the taxi company and our taxi arrived about 15 minutes later to take us back to the hotel for our car. 1 night stay, transfers and 10 days parking was £94. Bargain! Will deffinately stay again if we fly from Manchester.

Owner Response, 08 Août 2016

Dear Dawn, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is great to read your comments, and I will certainly communicate your feedback with my Team. I do hope you had a wonderful holiday. Thank you again. Kind regards, John Scott General Manager

"Lovely hotel in beautiful grounds"
Bilal I, 08 Août 2016

This hotel is a lovely place to stay. All the rooms have their own theme....i would definitely recommend asking for a room with a view of the grounds as they are very well maintained. We stayed here as a family while visiting some friends in the surrounding area and outer manchester. For the price i don't think you'll find better!!

Owner Response, 08 Août 2016

Dear Bilal, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is lovely to read that you enjoyed your stay with us; I will certainly communicate your comments to my Team. Thank you again. Kind regards, John Scott General Manager

"Not a great start"
LauraN1980, 07 Août 2016

We stayed at this hotel 21st July 2016 before our morning flight from Manchester, our room included parking and transfers. On arrival at the hotel at 8pm we found that there was no parking spaces at the hotel, after an hour drive with a small child this was not a great start to our holidays. We abandoned the car to enquire at reception what we should do about parking and we were told that as there was a couple of conferences on that night there may be car parking spaces later that night or in the morning. At this point we mentioned that surely they must know they have guests arriving that have park and fly and could they not have reserved spaces for these guests, the receptionist just said "what exactly do you expect me to do about it?" We gave up at this point and just left the car parked at the main entrance on yellow lines and checked in, the room itself was nice and clean but there are a few steps in the corridors which when you have luggage is not ideal but we managed. The walls of the room seemed very thin and it did not help that the room next door felt the need to watch the TV at full blast until midnight. Private transfer was on time but it was just a local taxi which on reflection we probably could have stayed in a premier inn and booked our own transfer. Not a great start to the holiday and will not use this hotel again!!!!!

"Great staff and hospitality"
sandra f, 05 Août 2016

We stayed again at this hotel before going on a special trip for our Ruby Wedding. Staff we have already met were very welcoming and this was a good feeling. We had a very big room with fruit strawberries and chocolate sauce as an added extra. We spent the night here and had a beautiful meal as usual. On returning to the UK from our exotic holiday, we had the same room. fabulous room but unusually for UK ,the weather was exceptionally warmer than we had in Mauritius. The room very warm and although a fan had been put in ,the hotel obliged with another fan. Staff as usual were great and the manager, checked to see if everything was OK. Would recommend this hotel to everyone.

Owner Response, 05 Août 2016

Dear Sandra Your encouraging comments are much appricated, thank you. I am so pleased that you enjoyed every aspect of your stay and that my Team looked after you so well.

"Excellent Hotel and close to e airport"
Winn C, 05 Août 2016

This hotel , its facilities and mainly it's superb staff make it a welcoming and restful place to stay. We used it last night as a stop of on our journey from France to N Wales and can only say" this is the first of many stays in the future " Excellent room, Great facilities, and a beautiful breakfast served by fabulous staff! From the Night Porter who checked us in and served us our night caps to the Breakfast Waitress and receptionist, all staff were friendly and courteous. We will be back.

"Caught in the middle!"
Peter S, 04 Août 2016

At the first glimpse it looks like a very nice hotel on the outskirts of Manchester close to the Airport. What makes it worse are the details. I paid £16 extra for exec double room on top of standard twin room charge. I was hoping to make a pillow fortress in the middle of the bed and have a good sleep before busy day at work. What I didn't realise is that double room in this hotel = two beds put together with two mattresses. So I ended up caught between mattresses and had to sleep at the side making it a single bed. When I asked receptionist about that she said there are no true double rooms in the hotel. To sum it up , decent hotel brought down by beds and very narrow bathtub that will leave you with no choice but to hug with shower curtain while showering. Also no A/C.

Owner Response, 04 Août 2016

Dear Peter, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. Would you be so kind as to contact me directly, so we can discuss your feedback in more detail. Thank you again. Kind regards, John Scott General Manager 01625 529 211

"Best Western Plus Deadwood"
DA_2011134, 04 Août 2016

I stayed at this hotel for one night. The staff were friendly and the bar area downstairs was nice. However, the room itself was old and cramped. There was an old school shower and the bathroom mirror was at waist height so I couldn't see my face in it. The road outside was very noisy and being next to the airport the planes were very loud. When it rained the noise from the roof was comparable to being in a caravan. The dinner menu was clearly aimed at people with a business allowance, overpriced basic food. I ordered steak and chips which had lots of things added to it, would have been better left alone. This with a drink cost £27 which really isn't worth it. Breakfast was a disorganised buffet. Plates and tongs crazily hot. Food quality not great. Also took 20 minutes to get a cup of tea. My colleague paid extra for the Executive Double room, only to find out the double room is a twin room in disguise, with the beds shoved together. This apparently was very uncomfortable. When he mentioned it to the staff they said all of their "double" rooms are like this. I think Best Western need to think about what "double" actually means! Overall it is fine to stay there if it was <£50 a night, but certainly isn't worth any more than that and I won't be going back.

Owner Response, 04 Août 2016

Dear Guest, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased you found my Team friendly and that you enjoyed the lounge area in the Hotel. It is disappointing to read your further comments. I do deal with negative feedback rather seriously, and act accordingly to prevent other guests from experiencing the same issues as you have done. Would you be so kind as to contact me directly, so that we can discuss your feedback in more detail. Thank you again. Kind regards, John Scott, General Manager 01625 529 211

Maureen C, 02 Août 2016

This is a lovely hotel. It is very clean the staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was large and had everything that you could need. We ate in the restaurant on the first night and it was an excellent meal and a good varied menu. The breakfast was also good.

"Excellent"
Tony M, 31 Juillet 2016

Had two night here when visiting Manchester. Great not to be living in the city. Handforth is a lovely village. My room was great and the hotel has beautiful gardens which I enjoyed. In fact very difficult to drag yourself away from the hotel gardens on a sunny day..nice sun terrace. Bar and restaurant great and food good. But best of all the staff.. Every member of the team from the barman, restaurant staff, management and housekeeping all lovely..made you feel really valued as a customer and genuinely friendly. Great team....oh..and did I mention the food!

Owner Response, 31 Juillet 2016

Dear Tony Well what can I say.. I am so pleased that you enjoyed every aspect of your stay and that every member of my Team who you came into contact with stood out and looked after you very well. Ps, as you say the gardens are looking good, great to read that you enjoyed the most of the sun, terrace and the gardens. Thank you. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Brilliant: which is why I come back time and again"
kenwharton, 31 Juillet 2016

I have stayed here as a visitor from Australia, on around a dozen occasions,both as a couple and also as a lone traveller. The food is excellent, the rooms very clean and comfortable and the staff are incredibly helpful. Indeed, every single member of staff I have ever met has been pleasantness personified. They are so helpful, courteous and professional. Here for a couple of nights on this trip in July, 2016 and already looking forward to the next one.

Owner Response, 31 Juillet 2016

Dear Ken Thank you so much for your kind words, they are much appreciated. It was good to see you again and I look forward to seeing you again in the very near future. All the best. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Another good stay!"
BeckyO88, 30 Juillet 2016

We stayed here for a overnight stop before travelling to Manchester Airport, this is the third time we have stayed here for this reason. Hotel has gone through a refurbishment since our last stay and has improved the reception and bar area. We were able to check in slightly before the set time - our room was on the 1st floor and was really nice. We didn't eat in the hotel but went to the waggon and horses pub which is a short walk away. We had an undisturbed nights sleep which was perfect for our 3am alarm. It took us approx 10 mins to drive to jet park plus where we left our car for our holiday. Another good stay and we will be back again if flying from Manchester airport!

Owner Response, 30 Juillet 2016

Dear Becky Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. Your feedback is very much appraicated and I will certainly communicate your kind words to my Team.

"Not able to sleep due to a wedding party"
PaulJNewton, 29 Juillet 2016

Good Points: We chose this hotel to be close to Manchester airport, it is close, and it was an easy drive to the airport at 3am. Nice grounds. Nice Restaurant Pleasant staff. Bad Points: We had booked a twin room for our children and a double for ourselves. The children's room they allocated for us was two floors away from ours at the other end of the hotel. This would not have been acceptable if our children had been any younger, as it was it made it hard to check everyone was up in time to leave.. On arrival we had explained we would be leaving at 3:30 am, and at that time it was suggested that we book a table at the restaurant early to avoid a wedding party. At this stage they might have told us we would not get any sleep or they probably could have asked if we wanted to move to a different room in a quieter part of the hotel - but no they gave us a room over the dance hall. We did not realise this until it was too late to ask to move room. As a result we were kept awake by music and the DJ shouting until past 1 am. On leaving we did not have time to discuss the noise, but the porter said he was surprised we had not been warned in advance by email or phone. Best Western did have all our details and had ample time to warn us. (We had booked by phone with Best Western - not direct with the hotel.) We normally chose Premier Inn and have never had a problem like this.

Owner Response, 29 Juillet 2016

Dear Paul Thank you for your recent feedback in regards to your overall experience at the Hotel. I cannot apologise enough for the inconveninace casued on this occasion.

"IT JUST GETS BETTER!! [The Best Western Tardis]"
Ashef, 27 Juillet 2016

We stayed for our fifth time in the past few years. We were really impressed with the new developments and general enhancements since our last visit in November 2015. As you enter the hotel, the quality is apparent, with welcoming reception and efficient bar staff. The bar area has good seating for drinks and food. The garden is accessible from the bar with exceptional patio seating and plenty of lawn to view and admire. Viewed from the main road the hotel looks quite small, but as you park up,either at the front reception area or the extensive parking area around the hotel and garden, you realise its extent. There are no parking problems and plenty of open garden area to enjoy. The bedroom was of a good size including a desk for working at and plenty of storage for clothing and luggage. The bathroom was well equipped. A safe was available, but be careful to follow the instructions and press the red re-set button before doing anything else! Don't worry though, as the staff are amazingly helpful in case you lock all your valuables away by accident! The restaurant was really excellent. There was a very good menu choice with efficient and helpful service. The food was of good quality and freshly prepared. Nothing was too much for the staff to make the experience very memorable. The IT billing system to room is seamless, as it follows you from bar to restaurant and then back to bar, without fuss or error. I have to congratulate the hotel on its new lift, undoubtedly added at great expense since our last stay in November 2015. Large and smooth and non-claustrophobic. It was well worth the investment. We will return to this excellent hotel before too long.

Owner Response, 27 Juillet 2016

Dear Guest What can I say, what a glowing review in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. From the moment you walked into the Hotel and to the moment you departed from the Hotel your overall experience has been one to remember for all of the right reasons. Overall we have invested £3.9 Million into the property which in turn has transformed the Hotel and I must say the Hotel is looking great which I am pleased you agree with. I do have a wonderful Team who work hard to make sure that all guests are looked after and from your comments they have certainly looked after you very well. Thank you again and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Excellent Staff"
Lyn P, 25 Juillet 2016

My sister and I stayed here for 3 nights, recently. The first room we were offered seemed very noisy because it was on at the front of the building on the main road, we asked if there was a quieter room and were offered one but told it was a very hot room with only one small is window. We decided to stay in the first room, the first morning we were woken early by the heavy traffic, the second by a delivery lorry directly below our window and the third by some very drunken, foul mouthed revellers from the wedding held on the Saturday - not great from a sleep point of view!! But 95% of the staff were so pleasant, friendly and helpful and the breakfasts were very good, as was the restaurant, that overall our stay was very enjoyable. I would suggest anyone booking asks if they can have one of the recentlyrefurbished rooms which would be much quieter and presumably very up to the minute decor.

Owner Response, 25 Juillet 2016

Dear Lyn Thank you so much for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I do apologise that you experienced some noise issues from the main road and it is a shame that my Reception Team were unable to relocate you for the remainder of your stay due to the Hotel being fully booked. I will certainly discuss your feedback with my Reception Manager. I have certainly taken all the positives out of your feedback. Thank you again. Kind regards Lucy Wilson Front of House Manager

"Brief stop over due to late flight arrival"
236DavidE15, 25 Juillet 2016

I booked this hotel as my flight was arriving in the middle of the night and I wanted some sleep before continuing my journey. The hotel was a fraction of the cost of the airport hotels, and only takes about 15 mins to get to from the airport. WARNING: do NOT use the black cabs at the airport to travel to the hotel. Their fares are astronomical. Instead use the private hire cabs at the airport - they are less than half price of the black cabs. I didn't see much of the hotel during my brief time there, but check in and check out was friendly and efficient. The layout was slightly confusing. I had to take the lift up to the 3rd floor to go down some steps to the 4th floor then go down some stairs to my room. My room was small, but comfortable. It had no view apart from the concrete of another block, but I wasn't there long enough to let that bother me. I slept well. SUMMARY A useful hotel for airport travellers, at a fraction of the cost of airport hotels. I would use it again, and hopefully have time to enjoy more of it next time.

"Surprisingly, satisfyingly good."
christine_a_eccles, 24 Juillet 2016

We have not been to this hotel in years and quite honestly did not expect too much, but it was all that was available at the last minute. What a fabulous surprise to find it so smart, attractive, with great ambience and an air of superb professionalism. This was demonstrated with the care and attention to our needs. Breakfast was great and well worth the slightly extra cost.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2016

Dear Christine Thank you so much for your kind words in regards to your overall experience at the Hotel.

"Superb Stay!"
Biblet_10, 24 Juillet 2016

Stayed with my mum for one night after visiting the Tatton Park flower show. From start to finish, our stay was superb. Room lovely, spotlessly clean but a little hot. On request a fan appeared which saved the day! We had dinner in the restaurant which was delicious, good quality, fresh ingredients and lovely Merlot wine. Very quiet during the night and we had a great sleep in the very comfy beds. Breakfast was definitely one of the best we have had, again quality of food was fantastic. Sadly, my mum had a fall, however, out of this came the realisation on just how good the staff are there. Special thanks to Staci who was an absolute star, however the manager John really is superb. You can tell that he has a really good team behind him. We will definitely return, gorgeous hotel.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2016

Dear Guest Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel.

"try the gym"
johnsonwallace, 23 Juillet 2016

This hotel was clearly refurbished to a high standard a few years ago and retains lots of attractive features. Our bedroom had a large bed - probably larger than king size, bath/shower room, iron and board TV and free WiFi. there was even a computer downstairs for anyone to use. It was easy to find and the breakfast was as good as we have had anywhere. They also offer free entry to Totalfitness gym which is 5 mins drive away. This is the best gym I have been to; with 9 pools, tropical and artic showers, steam room, sauna, hot tub you could swim in, 2 floors of gym equipment including a ladies gym and an indoor running track. Don't forget a towel and padlock for the locker.

"Our favourite stop over when flying from Manchester"
Marie H, 21 Juillet 2016

This hotel is perfectly situated to travel from Manchester airport. It is set in attractive well kept gardens. We have now stopped here three times. It is such a well run hotel. The staff are so friendly and polite. They attend to any requests in an efficient professional manner. Beds are very comfortable and rooms well equipped. The transfer to and from the airport is excellent. The hotel uses a local private taxi firm with polite drivers with clean and well maintained vehicles. John Scott the hotel manager is always in attendance making sure the hotel runs smoothly. He has a good relationship with the staff. Creating a good work environment. The hotel experience is far superior to the sometimes faceless larger chains. We find it very good value for money.

"better value than the airport hotels"
darren_hunt, 19 Juillet 2016

Stayed Thursday 14th July, we have always stayed at one of the hotels on site at Manchester airport, for some reason their pricing has increased to a level where I looked a little further out from the airport. We decided to try the Pinewood.. we were not disappointed. we booked an executive room, the room was modern, nice décor. flat TV on the wall, very comfortable bed.. excellent bath room. We didn't have anything to eat, because we were on a 6.20 am flight. Travel time to the airport at 4.30/4.45 am was around 8-9 mins. We will be using again.. great hotel, great pricing.

"Lovely hotel but staff not very helpful."
betsy369, 13 Juillet 2016

My husband and I stayed here after a concert in Manchester while the hotel itself was very welcoming we found the opposite with the member of staff who greeted us on arrival. Ruth was very off hand with myself and other members of staff behind the desk. It was as though everything was too much trouble particularly when asked about wi-fi in the room she proceeded to point at the key fob and told us to read the instructions. I know it's a busy place but I feel manners cost nothing. As I stated earlier the hotel is lovely just a shame our experience was spoilt by a rude member of staff.

Owner Response, 13 Juillet 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I cannot apologise enough for the disappointing experience that you had upon arrival at the Hotel. It is very unusual that I receive a negative comment about one of my Team Members and I will certainly discuss your comments with Ruth.

"Highly recommended!"
KFnCAD, 10 Juillet 2016

I've stayed here several times on business since the refurb, and is now my preferred hotel in this area. The staff are friendly and efficient, ample parking inc overflow, grounds been redone & great for a drink outside when it's warm enough. Food in the bar & restaurant is of good quality with plenty choice, and chef is always up for requests. Good wifi which is free & plenty tv channels. I've stayed in both the refirb'd rooms which are much better than the older ones, so suggest you ask what's available. I've never been disturbed by noise, although only there mid weeks, am sure the reception and porters would help, as I've always found them very professional. Would highly recommend!

"As promised I tried again"
HenryG1965, 08 Juillet 2016

Since my last review I said I would give this hotel another try. Well I have stayed in this hotel every month since in various room with the last two visits being in the executive room. Yes the room was very spacious and pleasant on the eye with a very big bathroom with separate bath and walk in shower. However the room get food smells from somewhere (kitchen maybe below the room) along with the beats of music, which could be drowned out with the TV. For me I just don't and haven't felt a sense of friendliness or welcoming to this hotel compared to all the other hotels I have stayed in.

Owner Response, 08 Juillet 2016

Dear Henry Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It disappoints me to say the least that your overall experience again has been one to remember for all of the wrong reasons. I do apologise that you could smell food being prepared through your bedroom window and that you could hear music from somewhere within the Hotel. I will certainly look into your concerns in more detail so that my other guests do not experience the same issues as you have done.

"Best Western near Manchester at Wilmslow is very good"
beyond5th, 08 Juillet 2016

We stayed here after a journey from around the other side of the world. The hotel reception staff were very understanding and helpful and the room quiet and comfortable to catch up on some serious lack of sleep. That evening we took a lovely short walk through the hotel gardens to the village where we bought dinner (at a take away) and some other food from Tesco. Also checked out the suburban train timetable for the trip into Manchester Piccadilly the next day for our forward travel to Cumbria. The breakfast was extensive and fresh. The only thing I would mention negative was a wedding party using the main rooms that evening and some of the guests were still laughing, crying (and possibly arguing) late into the night in the Carpark adjacent to the rooms...hardly the fault of management...more likely just tired and emotional people.

Owner Response, 08 Juillet 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for taking the time to complete a Trip Advisor review in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is pleasing to read that you enjoyed your stay and I do apologise that you were kept awake by the Wedding Party that were congregating outside in the carpark. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Amazing value vs quality"
Nickthegreak, 07 Juillet 2016

I booked this hotel a couple of weeks before via booking and it was only 55 pounds. I was expecting a budget hotel being so close to the airport. Room was around four star level with nice taste, bathroom fine although one small point is I didn't like shower as being over 6ft tall it reached my shoulders. I ate diner in restaurant night before, food was excellent a la cart, prices in restaurant average. I like this hotel as it's very high quality for the price. Parking was an issue though as they had a conference as well but it is a large car park. Staff were all professional. Would recommend.

Owner Response, 07 Juillet 2016

Dear Nick Thank you for your positive feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that you enjoyed your overall experience and that you found my Team very professional. My apologies about the lack of carparking. We do have an overflow carpark which has an extra 30 carparking bays for my guests to use. Thank you again and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Overnighter"
ian b, 04 Juillet 2016

Used the Best Western the night before early flight from Manchester Airport, very easy to book, got a fantastic deal which included breakfast for 2, parking for the duration of our holiday AND private taxi to and from Terminal 3 ( about 8 minutes drive ) ! Receptionist was extremely friendly and efficient, explaining everything clearly, and, we were given a free room upgrade. 6 foot bed was extremely comfortable, we got a great nights sleep, large bath, powerful shower, what an excellent start to our holiday, would most definitely use again, even without the upgrade, although I wouldn't say no ! As we were flying out fairly early the breakfast was continental style up until 7.00am, we would have taken the full breakfast had it been available to us, and I am sure that would have been excellent, maybe next time ! Once again highly recomended and we will definitely be back

Owner Response, 04 Juillet 2016

We were here for two nights while visiting an exhibition - it was close to Manchester airport, the food was great, the staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms extremely comfy - thank you! We also ventured to Hellas Taverna which is a 10 minute walk from the hotel and an amazing greek restaurant - highly recommended

"Beautiful property, friendly staff"
David D, 30 Juin 2016

This was the second time I have stayed at this hotel the night before I was flying out of Manchester. The location is a quiet residential area that is not congested. The rooms are well appointed and very clean, with modern up to date fittings. The staff was particularly helpful and friendly, really made me feel welcome. Located only a few miles from the Rental Car Return Center at Manchester airport, and you can get there on back roads avoiding the motorway. I'll definitely stay here again if I need something close to the airport.

Owner Response, 30 Juin 2016

"Super Hotel"
480Lachlan_M, 29 Juin 2016

First visit to this hotel and had a wonderful one night stay.Arrived in the evening when there was a big wedding being held. The receptionist was very pleasant, providing a warm welcome and explained about the wedding.With the wedding in full swing we were allocated one of the new bedrooms on the Third floor. The noise was minimal and the standard of the room was excellent.Very clean, well laid out and with a very comfortable bed.Next morning down for breakfast shown to our table immediately,order taken for Tea/Coffee and toast, served quickly and advised to proceed to the servery for the full breakfast. Offer of extra tea and toast towards the end of our meal. No faults found in the dining room. We booked direct with the hotel and it worked out cheaper instead of using Internet websites.

"re-furbished hotel - very nice"
Stephen N, 27 Juin 2016

This was our first stay at this particular Best Western and we were not disappointed. Close to the excellent shops in Wilmslow and Manchester airport if you are flying. There are several garden centres and nurseries nearby if you are interested in plants. Only one choice of draught bitter when i was there, only a minor point.

Just stayed one night whilst visiting Manchester and very impressed by the professionalism of staff and the facilities. Free Wifi, large comfortable bed, a powerful shower that was simple to work and the best breakfast we have had for a long time. Plenty of on site parking, nice location close to airport and Wilmslow. We really enjoyed our short stay.

"Lovely! "
amandaebrown, 26 Juin 2016

We stayed here when going to a wedding at Alderley Hall. It was within 10 mins of the venue and ticked every box. Plenty of parking, good clean comfortable rooms which were well decorated and good showers, great breakfast with loads of choice and nice coffee. Lifts were a bit annoyingly busy at breakfast and stairs sent you round the whole hotel (we were on the third floor). Would definitely return if we needed to again!

"Convenient location for airport & motorway connections"
MidlandsTravelg, 21 Juin 2016

We found all the staff at the hotel to be very friendly, welcoming and pleasant. There is plenty of free car parking. The reception area, bar & restaurant are stylishly decorated. The hotel does cater for wedding parties at the weekend. A new extension has added additional bedrooms to the hotel, these are nicely decorated, well appointed with wall mounted flat screen TV, tea & coffee facilities, free safe, iron & ironing board, adequate hanging space, comfortable beds,free wifi however they are rather compact. So not a huge amount of room if you have large suitcases. We had booked a standard double, this did overlook the car park to the rear of the hotel. Suprisingly there is no air conditioning, room heating was by means of an electric radiator, fans were available from reception. The shower room has a walk in double shower, shaver point & magnifying mirror, an electric heated towel rail, the large anti mist mirror was a bonus and toiletries are provided, but again this room was also on the small side, in fact there is no where for housekeeping staff to place any towels,these are left on your bed when you arrive. The buffet breakfast was very good offering an a reasonable choice of juices, cereals, fresh fruit, yogurt to start. The hot selection was kept well stocked with bacon, sausage, both fried & scrambled, beans, saute potatoes,mushrooms. In addition to this they also provide additional items on a cooked to order basis for example porridge at no extra charge. Cold meat & cheese was also available. In addition there was a selection of breads (including gluten free bread) & pastries. Tea & coffee are brought to your table as is toast. Service at breakfast was efficient & friendly. If breakfast is not included in your room rate the charge for a full buffet breakfast was £14.95pp or you could have continental for £7.50pp. Whilst the new rooms are compact we found the hotel to offer excellent value especially if you include breakfast within your room rate.

Owner Response, 21 Juin 2016

sqweekybum, 21 Juin 2016

We stayed here just for the one night as we were at a wedding at another hotel not far but they could not accommodate us as that hotel so we booked in to the pinewood .really clean lovely rooms and the friendly staff and very good food would recommend it and we would not hesitate to book it again.

"Easy commute to Manchester"
Murron M, 20 Juin 2016

Stayed here for a night with two of my friends and my boyfriend, we had two separate rooms mine was a double bed room, the bed was massive and it was extremely comfy, my friends had two single beds which they found comfy aswell. Both rooms were clean and well kept. The bathrooms were also nice, in particular the showers were great, lovely amount of water pressure and heat, loved the shower. We stayed in Handforth as we were going to see The Stone Roses in Manchester and Handforth was easy to commute to via train. The hotel was about a 10/15 minute walk from the train station and it was a straight road walk. The only negative thing about the stay, not the hotel, the area, as lovely as it was it wasn't very good for takeaway or any sort of food late at night. Being from Glasgow and having everywhere open at all hours of the day and night we assumed/hoped that Handforth would be likewise. Basically if you want food late at night either get it in Manchester before you commute home or go out to eat earlier. We also requested a later check out before we stayed which was perfectly fine. All the staff were great and i would go again if i was in the area and looking for a good price for a good hotel.

Owner Response, 20 Juin 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your positive words in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It gives me great pleasure to communicate such encouraging feedback to my Team, thank you.

"Stay and fly"
Amy B, 19 Juin 2016

We stayed here overnight before our flight and left the car parked in the hotel. The price was brilliant and very cheap compared to similar packages. The hotel is lovely and very clean and modern the staff were friendly, although the gym isn't located on site you are able to use one about a 5 minute drive away that is brilliant and more than makes up for it not being on site. A taxi service collects you for you flight to and from the airport with is arranged and paid for by the hotel when you check in. Overall a wonderful and very convenient hotel and I will definitely be staying again in the future

"Delightful Home from home"
cathyrhodes, 19 Juin 2016

Staying each week at the hotel for the last 2 years, together with the recent upgrading of the rooms means that the Pinewood feels a delightful home from home. Lovely welcoming staff, luxury bedrooms and the opportunity of an upgrade as a Diamond customer. Views of the gardens are particularly welcome to remind me of home (a country village in North Yorkshire) and the hotel substantially helps to make working away from home each week more beareable. The hotel provides easy access to major towns in the area (great for work).

Owner Response, 19 Juin 2016

Dear Cathy, Thank you for your overall positive feedback in relation to your regular stays at the Hotel. It is wonderful to read that the Pinewood is home from home for you, and I will certainly communicate your kind comments to my Team. Thank you again. Kind Regards, John Scott, General Manager.

"Perfect from start to finish "
Poppy2k, 18 Juin 2016

I had a newly renovated room on the 3rd floor, which was very nice and comfortable, with a very upmarket feel & a big comfy bed. The public areas downstairs were excellent, spotlessly clean and very well designed. I ordered room service on the two evenings, the food was quick to arrive and excellent, with a very good range of in room dining. Staff were excellent, from the arrival at reception, to the departure. Would I stay again? Yes absolutely

"Customer servive"
Josefina P, 17 Juin 2016

Used some best Western hotels several times and this will be the last. It has to do with the tolerance and flexibility. For 68£ the hotel has lost me as a customer. My busines trip was cancelled one day and a half after my booking and although the cancellation of the room was done inmediaetly - and with one week in advanced to the arrival - they decided to charge me the room at my credit card. Bad business for your company!

Owner Response, 17 Juin 2016

Dear Josefina Thank you for your recent review on Trip Advisor. I have looked into your reservation further and I can see that the booking made was through Booking.com which was non refundable and non transferable. It is always better to book direct with the Hotel whereby we are more flexible with our rates and often enough we can give the customer best price. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Quiet but convenient to airport"
Bob L, 14 Juin 2016

This is a modern hotel that fits well into the surrounding residential area. Thus it was surprisingly quiet for a hotel near a large airport. There are restaurants within walking distance, but we enjoyed a dinner out in the landscaped garden adjacent to the hotel. The staff were friendly and efficient. They were especially helpful in printing our boarding passes. It is a short drive to the Manchester airport/rental car return or a shuttle can be arranged.

"Mixed Bag"

Staff were very polite and helpful. Bed was really comfy and good room size. There was however a problem with moths in my room (4 found on first night) and the room was very warm despite having all windows open and use of a fan. Breakfast was perfect but evening meals were a big let down and overpriced for quality received.

Dear James Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel.

"Great, with one exception - rooms with little ventilation making sleep IMPOSSIBLE."
Christopher E, 09 Juin 2016

The good: Location 8/10 - Minor aircraft noise, otherwise quiet, 5 minute walk to town centre for local shops and takeaways, etc... Shower 9/10 - could be a bit higher, but great pressure and temperature. Room 9/10 - Good size, storage, and hanging space with tea, coffee, biscuits. Bed 8/10 - Good, but needs more pillows. Wifi 9/10 - Good speed, free, easy to connect. The bad: The window (singular) only opens 1 inch (see photo) so even in early summer (June'16) sleep was impossible due to the temperature. A fan was supplied on request, but an industrial one, making so much noise you'd can hear the TV above it - and all it's doing is blowing the hot air around. In the winter probably a very nice hotel, in the summer, AVOID

Owner Response, 09 Juin 2016

Dear Christopher Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I do apologise that your bedroom was very hot in this freak weather that we are experiencing. We do supply fans on request and I am pleased that you received one. Unfortunately all bedroom windows only open a certain distance due to Health & Safety regulations which does in turn restricted the air flow into the bedrooms which I do apologise for.

"Excellent Hotel"
jujo_12, 06 Juin 2016

We stayed at this hotel for one night as part of a "park & fly" package and then stayed for 3 nights upon our return to attend a family wedding taking place at the hotel. The hotel itself has been recently renovated and the rooms and public areas have been decorated and furnished to a very high standard indeed. Really comfy bed, tea & coffee making facilities in the rooms, high quality bathroom minis, and an extremely powerful shower (always welcome), flat screen TV (though I think I am one of the few who never watch TV in a bedroom so cannot comment on it) and plenty of drawer and wardrobe space. Breakfast was superb and our park & fly was so simple to arrange at the reception desk upon our initial check-in. The wedding we attended was so lovely and all the attention to detail was perfect. The food was delicious and the glorious gardens made for some delightful wedding photos (and, of course the sun helped there too!). All the fantastic staff are a true credit to this wonderful hotel. John and his amazing team are always on hand with a smile and a cheery word and nothing is too much trouble....if you need something, want to ask something, whatever, just ask, they are only too happy to help. Cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

"Fond memories of my wedding 45 years ago. Pinewood still has the same charm and beauty."
downtowngal123, 30 Mai 2016

My sister surprised me with stay at the Pinewood Hotel before my return flight from Manchester to Toronto in May 2016. Why the Pinewood ? Because I had my wedding reception there 45 years ago. What a nostalgic and wonderful surprise. It is still a beautiful and traditional hotel. In 1971 there was just the white building at the front of the property but now Best Western has added a wing to accommodate more rooms and meeting facilities. Tastefully done and they have maintained the charm and uniqueness of the original hotel. One staff member, Rick, a local lad who knew the history of the hotel, took us to what used to be "The Penny Farthing Suite". It is now a meeting room but with a little imagination I was there as a young bride. I had Lancashire Hot Pot in the One Eighty. Delicious and also comfort food. Breakfast the next morning was outstanding. Before leaving for the airport I had a photo on the steps leading into the garden. The exact stair and garden that we had a group wedding photos. I recall some wedding photos around a pond in the garden. And it's still. It's some kind of a planter but I recognized it. Thank you for the memories and maintaing the charm and beautiful of this this treasure of a hotel. All the staff were friendly and efficient. A warm welcome,. Thank you. Even without the memories, I'd recommend the Pinewood Hotel to all guests.

Owner Response, 30 Mai 2016

Dear Guest Fond memories indeed... It must be wonderful to come back to the Hotel after this length of time and reminisce. As you have seen the Hotel has been through a lot of change over the years and I am so pleased that you found the Hotel beautiful and traditional. The Hotel has been privately owned now for over 5 years and within the last 3 years we have invested £4 million into the property and the transformation has certainly been welcomed by my guests and my team. I have a wonderful Team who go out of their way to make sure that all guests are looked after to a high standard and this certainly shows from your kind words, much appreciated thank you. Ric has been working at the Hotel for 10 years now and remembers the Hotel from old. The Penny Farthing Suite has been called the Tatton Suite for sometime now and it was very good of Ric to show you into this room where you have many fond memories. All the best and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Avoid Rooms Above the Function Suites"
OliveandBingo2016, 30 Mai 2016

Firstly this is a very pleasant location with helpful staff and good facilities. The grounds are very secluded and soothing and the location for the airport is excellent. The staff are pleasant and helpful and the rooms are modern and functional especially as we stayed in the newly refurbished rooms. You could smell the newness of the carpet. The only gripe. Upon arrival we were told that there was a joint 40th birthday party but because we were staying on the 3rd floor it will not affect us. Unfortunately it did and for five hours we had to put up with the thud of the DJ's music. Upon ringing the reception they were genuinely surprised at this and it transpired that there were soundproofing issues in some of the new rooms. They refunded us half the room rate for our troubles. We would return again but would insist we are nowhere near the function suites!!

Owner Response, 30 Mai 2016

Dear Olive Thank you for your overall feedback in regard to your recent stay at the Hotel. My apologies in regards to the noise disturbance that you experience and it is pleasing to read that my Reception Team gave you a 50% reduction on your room rate as compensation. It is pleasing to read that you found my Team very pleasant and helpful and that you enjoy the look and feel of the new bedroom that you were allocated. Thank you again.

"Wilmslow Break"
sjch2015, 27 Mai 2016

We picked this hotel for being conveniently centred for us to visit various 'Trust' Properties and other holiday activities. We found the hotel to be nicely presented and the room small but attractively presented and we particularly enjoyed the patio and garden setting.....very pleasant to sit and have a drink. My only complaint would be that on our 2nd night a rowdy party went on late at night on either the patio (or the room next door - we were above the patio but couldn't see it, so it was difficult to make out exactly) we did phone down about 2.20am and asked if something could be done but nothing happened and the noise went on for another hour or more.

Owner Response, 27 Mai 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel.

Fantastic Hotel cannot rate it High enough, My husband and I celebrated our 11th Wedding Anniversary, we chilled in the afternoon with a few wines, staff very attentive and friendly. Room was stunning with a beautiful view of the gardens. Our evening meal was fabulous , finished off with coffee in the bar. Breakfast was great lots of choice and the food was lovely and hot, I love it that toast is brought to the table so you don't have to stand at a machine like most other hotels do. We will be back!

"Stayed again before holiday."
SoulgirlCarnforth, 26 Mai 2016

We have stayed here numerous times before going on holiday, it's a great hotel with excellent staff. We paid £113 for park and ride in a balcony room with 15 days parking, it's £99 in a double, which this time unfortunately we couldn't really use as it was raining, but not a problem as the view over the garden is great. We were too leaving too early for breakfast in the morning but if you want for £5 the hotel will make you up a light takeaway one. We always have an evening meal in the hotel, the food is fabulous and reasonably priced,compliments once again to the chefs and all waiters and waitresses. The room is very comfortable with the usual tea, coffee, biscuits, flat screen tv, all the necessary toiletries and the safe , which is free, enabling us to put our passports etc in for safe keeping. Handforth Dean shopping centre is only a 15 min walk or 5 min drive to have a nosey round and get sandwiches for the airport or last minute bits you have forgotten. The taxi firm(lynx) were spot on time both ways, and send you txt messages to let you know your taxi has been booked and also when it has arrived, which always makes the stress of the airport a little better. We will be back again next year when they may have finished adding more rooms, thanks again for a lovely stay.

"Great Staff Nice Rooms"
John C, 25 Mai 2016

I have been staying at this hotel almost every night for the past couple of months and it is my hotel of choice for this area. What sets this hotel above the others in my opinion is the staff who are always friendly efficient and courteous. Sadly that is not the case with many of the other hotels in the area. The staff here do go the extra mile to help and assist you and seem enthusiastic and well prepared for all situations. The rooms are always left fully stocked and well cleaned and the food here in my opinion is very good and I have not had a bad meal from over 30 visits. It's a little pricey but what other hotel gives better value and service in the area, not many! If I had to make one complaint it would be the bacon at breakfast. On every occasion I have dined there the bacon is always so over baked its dry and hard and at £15 for a breakfast perhaps it could be improved but the rest of the breakfast offering is always to a good standard. The hotel itself is pleasant, well laid out and the standard of décor is good. The rooms are adequate and well appointed. The beds in some rooms are better than others but none are that bad. A few of the rooms are located right next to the lift shafts which could be annoying especially when airport users depart at very early o clock! and a few others do seem to pick up a slight noise from air con units or other fans near the room. I am sure the hotel would happily accommodate a room swap for light sleepers but I have never been that badly affected to request this yet. I am currently in a disabled room although I do not require it but I can see it is equally well appointed with all the required equipment fitted. Like I said before I have been here probably 30 times in the last 2 months and will probably do the same in the next two months (by choice) and as yet I have been very impressed and all credit to every member of staff and special credit to the guys behind the bar.

Owner Response, 25 Mai 2016

Dear John, Thank you for your wonderful feedback in regards to your regular stays at the Hotel. It is pleasing to read your comments in regards to my staff; they really are an asset to the Hotel. I will certainly communicate your positive feedback to my Team. Thank you again. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"Second time here."
oldator, 17 Mai 2016

We stayed here in 2009, and everything was great. This time it was terrible. We checked in on April 30, 2016. Staying just for the night as we had an 11:00 am flight. Around 7:30 or 8:00pm, there was a terrible racket from one of the party rooms that continued until 12:30. This noise was supposed to be music, but it was loud bass sounds that vibrated the TV and rattled the walls. I called the desk to complain and was told there was an, 'event', going on in one of the party rooms. I was awake till 1:30am with a headache. They can not pay me to stay here again. Sunday morning we down to have breakfast at 7:00am, but was told they don't start serving until 8:00am. Our taxi picked us up at 8:15 to take us to the airport, and we managed to grab a ham sandwich before boarding.

Owner Response, 17 Mai 2016

Dear Guest, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is very disappointing to read your comments and I will certainly make sure my Team are aware. While we do hold events at the Hotel my Reception Team do allocate the rooms above a function to guests who are attending the event to minimise the disruption to other guests staying in the Hotel. Our breakfast service commences at 8am on Saturday and Sunday, however we can provide a continental breakfast earlier when arranged the night prior, this should have been discussed with you upon check in. My apologies for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"Comfortable overnight pre holiday stay"
Janice T, 17 Mai 2016

Booked a stay prior to flying from Manchester airport, which included parking for the duration of our holiday and taxi transfers. All went smoothly and the staff were friendly and helpful, both on reception and over breakfast. Apparently the hotel has just undergone a refurbishment. Only slight niggle, which did not affect us but might affect someone less mobile, was the lift does not fully service all the rooms. We had a small flight of stairs to negotiate to get from the lift to our room. We were offered assistance with our cases, which we declined, but anyone with walking difficulties would be advised to check where the lift access is in relation to their room on booking or checking in.

Owner Response, 17 Mai 2016

Dear Janice, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is wonderful to read you enjoyed your stay with us; I will certainly communicate your kind comments to my Reception and Restaurant Teams. We do have some rooms which are not accessible by the lift; however we do discuss requirements with our guests at the time of reservation and my Reception Team do make a conscious effort to allocate our rooms appropriately to our guests needs. My apologies for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Best Western PLUS Pinewood, Wilmslow, Manchester"
Michael A, 14 Mai 2016

Good hotel with friendly staff. Hotel garden kept in excellent condition. Parking can be problematical when the hotel is busy. EV charge point type 2 works well, 3 pin standard socket does not accept a normal 3 in plug.

Owner Response, 14 Mai 2016

Dear Michael Thank you for your recent Trip Advisor review in regards to your overall stay at the Hotel. First and foremost I do apologise that parking was difficult when you stayed at the Hotel. The development works are now complete whereby the contractors have left site freeing up all of my existing car parking spaces. We are also in the process of completing the overflow carpark which in turn will provide an additional 16 car parking bays. I have taken on board your comments in regards to the electric charger bays and I will certainly discuss your feedback with my Maintenance Manager. I am so pleased that you found my Team friendly and that you enjoyed the look of the Hotel gardens. The gardens do look good at this time of year. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"GREAT STAFF QUALITY HOTEL"
Neil S, 12 Mai 2016

This BW Hotel is in a good location for access to South Manchester and nearby Wilmslow, Alderley Edge and Didsbury. Rooms are a decent size, breakfast is spot on and the evening meal too. Recent renovations to the hotel are looking good too!

Owner Response, 12 Mai 2016

Dear Neil Thank you so much for your kind feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is pleasing to read that you enjoyed your over breakfast and dining experience and that you found the Hotel looking good now that the development works are complete.

"Great hotel"
WestMidlands_UKLulu, 11 Mai 2016

Used the park and fly facility here which included car parking and taxi transfers to Manchester airport, the hotel is lovely, staff very helpful, especially with the lift out of order they brought our cases to the second floor. We had a lovely meal and the lady in charge, sorry can't remember her name but she was from Sardinia was most accommodating when we were give the wrong bottle of wine. We will definitely use this hotel again

Owner Response, 11 Mai 2016

Dear Guest Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It gives me great pleasure in reading such kind words and that Monica looked after you so well. I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"EXTREMELY UNACCOMMODATING and not a 4 star hotel!"
TravelBuff97, 05 Mai 2016

We arrived from the US after a long flight tired and in need of both sleep and shower. We emailed ahead to request an early check in, but were made to wait 1.5 hours on a sofa in the reception area until 2:00 on the dot, check in time! So our greeting was a bit less than welcome. When we finally got our room, it did NOT look like the pictures from their website, at all. There were two single beds and one small twin bed. My husband and I were less than delighted, to say the least. Our room overlooked the parking lot with a construction site in the distance, so while there was some noise during the day, it was more quite at night. The room was clean and had heat, but no air conditioning. But it was a cool evening so we were able to open the window. Bed was comfortable, and pillows adequate. The bathroom was also clean, and there were adequate towels. There is a teapot in the room for boiling water, and complementary tea. Overall, this is a 1 star hotel with dreadful customer service. Definitely NOT a four star hotel. My recommendation: Stay if you must, but there are too many other great choices to enjoy at much better prices.

Owner Response, 05 Mai 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your recent review on Trip Advisor in regards to your stay at the Hotel. First and foremost I must apologise for your arrival experience. Unfortunately there was some communication issues regarding your request for an earlier check in which I have addressed with the Reception Team. It is very disappointing to read you had to wait for an hour and half until your room type was available. I have certainly used your experience and further customer service training has been given to prevent other guests for experiencing the same issues as you have done. We do have a variety off room types all too different standards which we do advertise on our website. The family room that you had been allocated does unfortunately look on to the nearby building which is under development at the moment. I would like the opportunity to discuss your comments in more detail and restore your faith in the Hotel. Would be so kind and contact me at the Hotel on 01625 529221 or via email [email protected] so that we can discuss your comments in greater detail together that would be appreciated. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards. Lucy Wilson Front of House Manager

"Helpful and friendly staff"
stephenrS6820XV, 01 Mai 2016

All the staff were extreamly helpful and friendly. I had an issue with a small draft from the window my room. When I spoke to reception they immediately moved me to another room and reported the issue to their maintainence team to rectify in the original too. The rooms are of a high standard and I would happily recommend the hotel.

Owner Response, 01 Mai 2016

Dear Stephen What a pleasure it is to read such encouraging feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I do apologise that there was a draft from your bedroom window and I am pleased that my Reception Team moved you to another bedroom within the Hotel. I do have a friendly and efficient Team who go out of their way to make sure that all customers are looked after to a high standard, your comments are much appreciated. Thank you again and I will certainly communicate your kind words to my Team. I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Good value quality hotel near Manchester Airport"
A J, 27 Avril 2016

Stayed at the hotel ahead of an early meeting at Manchester Airport. A major refurbishment is almost complete. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The rooms are very clean and presentable. The refurbished bar and restaurant and welcoming and surprisingly good value

"One nighter"
Peter F, 26 Avril 2016

Good quality and clean rooms, lovely lounge and bar area, well kept gardens. Food was good. We only stayed for one night, check-in was excellent and the staff were all helpful and polite. Carpark was a bit tight in and out as you use the same entrance, but over all was a pleasant stay, shame it was for only one night.

Owner Response, 26 Avril 2016

Dear Peter Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. Due to the refurbishment we are currently undergoing, the car park has had to experience changes into a two way system, however this will return to a one way system over the coming months which will make accessibility easier. I will certainly pass your kind comments onto my Team. Thank you again. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"Stopover for Manchester airport"
kaye c, 26 Avril 2016

Spacious clean room with comfy beds. Although undergoing renovation work this did not impact on our stay the only problem being the lift was not working but our luggage was taken to our rooms and we only had one flight of stairs to climb. We ate in the restaurant the food was very good especially the Lancashire hotpot although a little pricey but i guess that's what you come to expect at the Best Western these days. The receptionist organised a taxi to the airport which was good value, prompt & efficent. Overall good price paid for a one night stopover we would visit again.

Owner Response, 26 Avril 2016

Dear Kaye Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that my Team looked after you and helped with your luggage, we do try our upmost to help guests enjoy their stay during this testing time. I will certainly communicate your comments to my Team and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the future. Thank you again. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"ONE NIGHT ONLY ..."
Gordon M, 21 Avril 2016

My wife and I stayed here recently en route to Manchester airport (a very short distance away) as were had a very early morning flight. It was reasonably priced and the room comfortable and clean - considering we only needed it for about six hours (we left at 3:45 am!) Needless to say, because of the short time in 'residence', we accessed no other services and thus can't comment on them. However, the check-in was straightforward and we had an alarm call booked. The only downside was that we had to use the stairs (there is presently no lift in operation) to access the room - which is an issue for those, like myself, with a disability, especially if you have a considerable amount of luggage to carry. In this instance it wasn't a major problem for us as we left the main luggage in the car, but would be for those with significant mobility problems.

Owner Response, 21 Avril 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. My sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused due to the lift being out of order during your stay. The lift is due to come back into service within the next week. I am pleased to read you enjoyed your short stay with us and I hope to welcome you back in the near future. Thank you again. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Service as usual"
Jzenithb, 18 Avril 2016

Again we chose The Pinewood Hotel on our visit to Manchester. Booking in was straightforward and a lovely surprise in the room were complimentary chocolate dipped strawberries, thankyou. The room was very clean and had a large shower (some are tiny in other hotels).The evening meal was delicious and the service was attentive without being obtrusive, all washed down with a fine rose wine, as recommended by the manager. Excellent hotel, and well placed for the airport and train station. We will return.

Owner Response, 18 Avril 2016

Dear Guest, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that your stay met your previous expectations and more; I will certainly pass your comments to my Team. We do look forward to welcoming you again at the Hotel. Thank you again. Kind regards.

"Smart spacious room "
jonesyle, 17 Avril 2016

Stayed here for one night on a work trip room was lovely spotless and very modern. Had room service which was nice enough and breakfast in the morning was very good. Most importantly for me the room was nice and quiet so I had a great nights sleep! Staff were friendly and helpful. Will stay again when in the area.

Owner Response, 17 Avril 2016

Dear Guest, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that you enjoyed your stay; I will certainly pass your comments to my Team.

"Alright, yeah"
Adam E, 13 Avril 2016

Stayed over here last weekend for a friends' wedding nearby. The room was as expected for this level of hotel, really. Bathroom was fine, had a bath as well as a shower. The bed was big and comfy enough, no problems there - my only complaint is that I couldn't find a plug anywhere near the bed. Not a huge deal, just a bit annoying when I needed to charge and use my phone the following morning. Sadly didn't get down to the breakfast I'd paid for as I was viciously hungover after said wedding. The grounds were very nice and green, and the bar was alright albeit a little small/slow for such a big group of post-wedding guests. I'd stay again, I reckon.

Owner Response, 13 Avril 2016

Dear Adam Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that you had a comfortable stay and I hope you enjoyed the Wedding that you attended. We are currently reviewing the layout of our new bedrooms to provide our guests more practicality in these new rooms. It is good to read that you would return to the Hotel in the future. Thank you again. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"Good stopover "
Carol52 C, 06 Avril 2016

We stayed here recently while attending a nearby wedding. We decided to eat in the restaurant even though it was empty. We all enjoyed our two course meal and thought the menu suited most tastes. The Lancashire hot pot was amazing. Our rooms were standard, no complaints but a few more milk pots would have been nice as we need two per cuppa. Four is a bit mean. Breakfast was good but the dirty dishes were not taken away so the table got overloaded. We had to ask for extra coffee too. Would stay again if in the area.

Owner Response, 06 Avril 2016

Dear Carol Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that you all enjoyed your dining experience in the Restaurant and that the food was to your liking. I do apologise in regards to the lack of milk in your bedroom and that the dirty dishes were not cleared away in a timely manner whilst you were having breakfast. I will certainly communicate your feedback to my Head Housekeeper and my Restaurant Manager. It is pleasing to read that you would return to the Hotel if you were visiting the area in the future. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Very disappointing!.... "
Kathy K, 03 Avril 2016

We decided to visit the hotel for a late lunch & sat in the bar area, the restaurant looked empty/closed. I fancied a roast dinner but as only the bar menu was on offer and it was after 3pm, we thought we were too late for this & ordered from that. Long story short, the vegetables, were disgusting, old & a carrot was even mouldy! My salmon was tasty & well cooked, but the sauce was gritty. Strange. My son & a friend had the burger, which they said was ok, nothing special. However, overpriced at over £12, for what it was. (They said they preferred Macdonalds over it). Lipstick on the coffee cup, table not wiped after the meal was cleared, had to keep finding a member of staff for service & nobody bothered to ask if we enjoyed our meal, so we paid the £53 & left feeling disgruntled & ripped off. All in all, not a good experience at all. We've had Sunday brunch here many times & always had great service & been looked after by a fantastic lady (blonde hair & glasses), she wasn't there today. What a shame. The fact that a man sat down in the bar area near us and had what looked like a lovely fresh roast beef dinner, didn't help the situation. I should have asked if it was available, hindsight & all that. Anyway, We won't be visiting again, but I don't think anyone will be bothered, to be honest.....

Owner Response, 03 Avril 2016

Dear Kathy Thank you for your feedback in regards to your overall experience at the Hotel and I do apologise for your concerns raised.

"Good"
JamesM2805, 03 Avril 2016

I last stayed at this hotel more than 5 years ago when it was a Menzies hotel, as a Best Western now and undergoing renovation work I feared the worst but was pleasantly surprised. The general standard is very good, room was modern and clean. I ate in the bar area and the food was OK too. My only gripe would be that the reception seemed under-staffed, juggling many things between conference delegates and hotel guests, so the check-in and check-out was slow - but friendly!

Owner Response, 03 Avril 2016

Dear James Thank you for your recent feedback in regards to your overall experience at BEST WESTERN PLUS Pinewood on Wilmslow. The Hotel became privately owned and operated in May 2011 and branded BEST WESTERN six months later. Since the Hotel has been privately owned we have invested just under £4 Million on developing the property and we are in the final phase which is due to be complete by May this year. The product is far more superior now which we are proud of and the customer feedback is very positive in regards to the offering, product and customer service. I am so pleased that you found your bedroom comfortable and clean and that you enjoyed your food in the Lounge Bar. I do apologise that you felt my Reception Team were understaffed and I will certainly discuss your comments with my Reception Manager. Thank you again and I do hope to welcome you back to the Hotel in the very near future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Stayed prior to airport departure"
Radfordsarah, 02 Avril 2016

On floor two - lift out of action - receptionist did offer to get bags taken to room, no offer of help down in morning at 5.30am check out. Good sized room, comfortable bed and pillows. Room designed for three with double and single but only one packet of biscuits!! Bathroom a little dated and smelt very damp, cracked floor tiles and poor flush and slow refill on toilet Good meal in the restaurant, Karen who looked after us was very friendly and attentive. Not a great nights sleep, woken by party goers at 2am and people leaving at 3.30am....also the person snoring next door!!

Owner Response, 02 Avril 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. First and foremost I must apologise that you suffered noise disturbance from other guests throughout the night. We do endeavour to make sure that all guests leaving the Hotel in the early hours are mindful of guests in the Hotel sleeping. My apologies in regards to the cracked tile in your bathroom and that the toilet did not flush correctly, I will certainly communicate your comments to my Maintenance Manager who will rectify immediately. As you rightly mention various bathrooms are dated and we are in the process of reviewing the cost to update these bathrooms in the near future. Due to the development works our new lift is in the process of being installed and will be fully functional as of the middle of April. I am pleased that you were offered luggage assistance upon check-in and it should have been made clear to you that if your required luggage assistance upon departure, by dialling (0) from your bedroom telephone you would have been able to contact one of my Night Porters. I am so pleased that Karen looked after you so well and that you enjoyed your overall dining experience. I will certainly communicate your feedback to my Team. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Not for sleeping"
desdan, 29 Mars 2016

Stayed here for one night, prior to catching our flight at Manchester Airport. The problem is here that other people are doing the same. We were set to get up for 05.15am so we could get showered and arrive at the Airport in good time. The problem was that we were woken at 3am by a noisy shower from next door. If you had later flight, I think the sleeping would have been hard. On the other hand, the room was clean, only 1 pkt of biscuits:(. I would only recommend this hotel for a overnight stay but ask to be put in room away from other travellers wanting an early wake up call. On the downside we asked at reception for a early breakfast but this request was not passed on and we had to wait for our carry out which consisted of a cereal bar, Banana and French pastry. Coffee.

Owner Response, 29 Mars 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your feedback. I do apologise that you were not satisfied overall with your stay and that you suffered with noise disturbance from other guests. In regards to your early breakfast that you requested with the Reception Team I will certainly follow this up with the Reception Manager to ensure that other guests do not experience the same issues as you have done. My apologies once again for your disappointing experience, I do deal with negative feedback rather seriously and I will certainly be discussing your feedback to the whole Team. Thank you again. Kind regards Lucy Wilson Front of House Manager

"Great overnight stay."
Alan P, 28 Mars 2016

OK so it's a Best Western, but this one seems to have been recently upgraded - either that or the staff have kept it in almost pristine condition. The lift was out of service due to the extension to a new level, but that was no problem as staff were available if we needed them -this may be the situation for a short while yet but do not let it put you off staying there. Bedroom was superbly presented and the overall ambiance was totally fine for a pleasant evening preparing for dinner in the Hotel which was not 5 star cuisine, but in every other way acceptable and great value for money. Breakfast was a similar good experience and we would consider using this hotel as an add-on to flights from Manchester at some future date. IMy wife and I are 'fans' of the Best western venues and this visit simply cemented that view to another level. Thank you for a fine night!

Owner Response, 28 Mars 2016

Dear Alan Thank you for your positive feedback regarding your overall experience at BEST WESTERN PLUS Pinewood on Wilmslow. It gives me great pleasure to read such wonderful feedback and I will certainly discuss your positive feedback to the Team. Since October last year the Hotel has been undergoing development works whereby a new floor has been added to the building and the exterior of the hotel has been updated which has made a great improvement to the hotel. As you rightly mention the lift is currently out of order due to the new lift shaft been built for access to the new floor. As a Team we are focused on ensuring that all our guests have an enjoyable stay and that their customer journey is remembered for all the right reasons. Thank you again and we will certainly look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind regards Lucy Wilson Front of House Manager

"Shame"
HenryG1965, 26 Mars 2016

On arrival at the hotel all I could see was scaffolding surrounding the building and thought oh no. I eventually checked in and was point in direction of my room only to come all way back to reception as the key card didn't work. The room and bathroom were clean and warm but small and dated in style. I needed to do some urgent work and struggled to do this with the men taken the scaffolding down and associated noises, after an hour at around 4,30pm I asked reception when they plan to stop and I will resume my work then. They stopped quite soon after my call. I ate in the restaurant and had a nice meal but again was put off by the staff setting up the unused table for breakfast. Had breakfast in the morning and nothing stood out for me to think this was any other hotel at breakfast time? I might try this hotel again when works are completed to give it a chance.

Owner Response, 26 Mars 2016

Dear Henry Thank you for your feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. Since October last year the Hotel has been undergoing development works whereby a new floor has been added to the building. The scaffolding has surrounded the Hotel throughout this time however now that we are coming to the end of the development works the scaffolding has been taken down. My apologies in regards to the noise from the contractors, I will certainly communicate your comments to the Site Manager. I am pleased that you found your bedroom clean and warm. As you rightly mention some of our bedrooms and bathrooms are dated and in time we will be up grading them. My apologies about your key not working and that the Restaurant Team were setting up for breakfast whilst you were dining. I will certainly communicate your comments to both my Reception Manager and Restaurant Manager.

We picked this hotel for its proximity to Manchester airport. We had a one night stay previous to a flight to Florida. Warm welcome from reception. Good room. We had a meal in he restaurant which was very good. Next morning, easy check out, help with luggage. John Scott, general manager, was particularly helpful. Very good experience.

Celebrated both my Grandparents 90th birthdays here in last six months. Very courteous efficient staff, very hard working committed team. Good food. Drinks okay, perhaps a touch over priced. Does exactly what it says on the tin. Very Comfortable beds. Good tidy facilities. Good breakfast buffet. I'd stay again. Professional outfit. Many thanks.

"Lovely room, Amazing staff"
susansheean, 21 Mars 2016

Stayed here with my husband and it was such a lovely get away. We were greeted at reception by Emily who was so polite and met our every need, every question was answered even before having to ask! The lift was not working and even though our room was on the first floor Emily insisted we left our bags and someone would bring them to us. Had a lovely meal in the restaurant, the Egyptian waiter (forgot his name) is a credit to your team, could not do enough for us. Our room was spotless and very modern. I would recommend this hotel to all my family and friends for the great food, friendly staff, lovely room and good location. I look forward to staying with you again.

Owner Response, 21 Mars 2016

Dear Susan Thank you for your positive review in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that your customer journey has been one to remember for all of the right reasons.

cleverclogscomputers, 19 Mars 2016

Lovely clean place with really nice staff who do all in their power to give good service but try not to die of shock when you order a drink. They seem to be making up numbers from the telephone directory when you get the bar bill.

Owner Response, 19 Mars 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased to read that you found the Hotel lovely and clean and that my Team were very accommodating. My apologies that you found the bar prices expensive. Before we price our products we do review the price banding within the local area and in all fairness we are very competitive. We do review our prices annually and increase according. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Very professionally run hotel"
Gary S, 17 Mars 2016

Stopped at this hotel for one night after a flight back from Europe. The staff were very polite and courteous . The restaurant was excellent with high quality food and top notch service, nothing was too much trouble! Room was well presented and had everything one needs for a comfortable stay. Breakfast was also excellent, good extensive choice and catered for all requirements, from healthy options (fruit, smoothies, yoghurts etc..) to the full English options. Sat in a nice location, with a pleasant patio & garden (perfect for a cold drink on a summers evening), I would highly recommend this hotel. This was a excellent example of how a hotel should be presented and it's a credit to the Manager and to the Best Western brand.

Owner Response, 17 Mars 2016

Dear Gary Thank you for your positive feedback regarding your overall experience at BEST WESTERN PLUS Pinewood on Wilmslow. It gives me great pleasure to read such wonderful feedback and I will certainly discuss your positive feedback to the Team.

"Terrible"
harshcritic007, 11 Mars 2016

Wouldn't recommend this hotel what so ever, had an overseas visitor and was totally embarrassed, Gentleman had to carry his own bags upstairs because the lift was not in use, when the booking was being taken not once were we informed that there was major building renovations taking place, we had to ring 3 times to get an email of confirmation of booking took 3 days!!!!! the food was just awful, 'boil in the bag burger' anyone ever had such a thing, hoping the head chef must of had a night off surely the food can not be this bad all the time , and the hotpot just was grey!!!!! woke at 7am workmen were banging !!!! Paying at the restaurant was a joke !!!!! 6 attempts to pay they couldn't get service on the card machine. had to almost go outside

Owner Response, 11 Mars 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your recent review on Trip Advisor in regards to your stay at the Hotel. First and foremost I must apologise for the catalogue of issues that you have experienced throughout your stay. The development works started in October last year and are due to finish in May this year. Unfortunately we have been without a lift since January due to the lift shaft being extended to the new 3rd Floor. We do offer luggage assistance to all guests however due to your comments I have emphasised to my Reception Team the importance of making sure all guests are asked or even that we insist that we take guests luggage to their bedroom for them. We have communicated to all booking websites and we also mention to all guests at the reservation stage that the Hotel is undergoing a refurbishment so that all guests are aware, however I will discuss your feedback with my Reception Team to make sure that all guests who are booking direct with the Hotel are being made aware. I will also discuss with my Reception Team the lack of communication via email in regards to you obtaining your reservation confirmation. In regards to your poor dining experience, the Steak Burger is cooked in a water bath for 1.5 hours at 56 degrees whereby the burger is served medium. From your comments I feel that this has not been mentioned to you when your order was placed or that the explanation has not been clear. We have been experiencing various issues with our telephone lines hence why our PDQ machine was not working correctly, this has been rectified now. The contractors should not have started work until 9am, I will make sure that the Site Forman is aware of your comments so that other guests do not experience the same issues as you have done. It does disappoint me that you will not return due to the issues in question. I would like the opportunity to discuss your comments in more detail and restore your faith in the Hotel. I unfortunately do not have your contact details so if you would be so kind and contact me at the Hotel on 01625 529221 or via email [email protected] so that we can discuss your comments in greater detail together that would be appreciated. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Superb 50th Birthday Party"
Justin C, 11 Mars 2016

We booked one of the suits at the Pinewood for a 50th Birthday. Well, from start to finish the staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble! The room itself was 'decked-out' beautifully, the 'in-room' bar was excellent and the buffet food was superb. Just wanted to extend a massive thank you to John Scott and all the staff for making this special occasion one to remember, for all the right reasons! Thank you Justin Covil

Owner Response, 11 Mars 2016

Dear Justin Thank you so much for your wonderful review in regards to the 50th Birthday Party that you attended at the Hotel. It gives me great pleasure to communicate your kind and thoughtful words to my Team who will be thrilled to have received such great feedback. Thank you again and I hope to welcome you back to the Hotel in the future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Stayed in a cupboard!"
Fatimb786, 09 Mars 2016

Stay for one night. Check in was smooth however lifts weren't working and I had been allocated a room on the 3rd floor!. Laptop, suite case and handbag all dragged by myself to my room only to get there and find that the key card wasn't working. Lucky I spotted a house keeper who was kind enough to let me in the room and then called reception and sorted another key car for me. No apology from reception! I booked a signal room and honestly it was the smallest room I had ever seen, there was no space for my case or anything else. It was a single room and then bathroom and toilet added to it. Basically a small box room. The room deco and the bathroom was old and dated. Really didn't enjoy my stay. Never booking again.

Owner Response, 09 Mars 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is very disappointing that your entire experience was one to remember for all of the wrong reasons. I have discussed your comments with my Team whereby they all fully understand how we could have made your stay so much more comfortable and enjoyable. I would like to have the opportunity to discuss your concerns in more detail, however I unfortunately do not have your contact details. Would you be so kind and contact me at the Hotel on 01625 529211 or by email [email protected] at your own convenience so that I can discuss your feedback in greater detail with you. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Very enjoyable!"
Ian S, 02 Mars 2016

Lots of good things to say about this hotel; great food, comfy bed, nice staff, easy parking etc. The bedroom floor was a bit creeky and I felt I was disturbing other guests when I walked around! However, this did not put me off and I would definately stay again. Overall a very enjoyable experience, thank you!

Owner Response, 02 Mars 2016

Yet again another fantastic stay @ the Pinewood. My husband & I stayed here for our wedding anniversary & his 50th birthday, John and his team made our stay very special and as usual we were treated like royalty. No matter how busy the staff members are they always make time to chat. We really do feel at home here and can't wait for our next visit in the Summer :@} x

"Good hotel"
tia91, 29 Février 2016

Stayed here for one night as we were in the area for the weekend. Very modern, clean and friendly receptionist. The bathroom and the shower were a bit old and we couldnt really close the bathroom door in our room. The view from our bedroom was scaffolding and the hotel lift was broken. Despite all that, our room was big. Bed was comfortable. Room was clean. Nicely decorated and very modern. So overall, it was a good hotel.

Owner Response, 29 Février 2016

Dear Guest Thank you for your recent review in regards to your overall experience at the Hotel. From reading your review I can see that the majority of your stay has been enjoyable which I am pleased about. My apologies in regards to the scaffolding and the outlook of the Hotel. We are in the process of building a further 19 bedrooms on the roof of the Hotel which in turn causes disruption as you can imagine, one of which is having our lift out of service due to the lift shaft being extended. The building works will be complete in May this year and the lift will be installed and ready to be used my April this year. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards John Scott General Manger

"Another great stay - well done !!"
86Andy2016, 23 Février 2016

We use this hotel on a regular basis to stay and park when we go on holiday. The hotel is extremely well run with very friendly and helpful staff for which nothing is too much trouble. It has a very good restaurant with a good selection of dishes and a well stocked bar. Following a recent holiday we also stayed on our return into the country rather than drive home. The hotel is currently undergoing building work to add extra rooms . This is being carried in a discrete manner and is not affecting how the hotel operates. As part of this work the lift is currently out of action however there is always someone available to help with luggage if it is needed. Once these works are complete it will make a great hotel even better.

Owner Response, 23 Février 2016

Dear Andy Thank you so much for your encouraging feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel.

Stayed apt Pinewood for 10 nights on business. Very comfortable stay, made very enjoyable by 5* food and service. Ate in hotel restaurant 8 evenings and without exception tremendous food. Staff deserve a special mention as they made my stay very smooth, with exceptional customer service , highly professional with personal touch. Particular mention to Karen, Stacey in the restaurant and Alex in the bar. Will make a point of selecting this hotel in future.

"Great hotel"
GMadcat, 20 Février 2016

I stay here on business now and again. The hotel looks as if it has been refurbished and all the rooms I have stayed in have been modern and fresh. The breakfast and bar menu is good. I have eaten in the restaurant but found the choice a little limited. The meeting rooms here are also good. Would recommend to business visitors.

Owner Response, 20 Février 2016

Dear guest Thank you so much for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. As a Team we have worked hard to ensure that the product and customer satisfaction is of a high standard and in turn we continue to invest in the Hotel by adding an additional 19 bedrooms on the roof. We do have 2 menus in the Restaurant, one being our seasonal menu and one being our al a carte menu both with varied choice, however I will certainly discuss your comments with my Head Chef so that the food offering can be reviewed moving forward. Thank you again for your feedback and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regards Lucy Wilson Front of House Manager

"Handy for airport"
saltburn51, 18 Février 2016

My wife and I stayed here for one night before our flight. The staff were extremely helpful and we had a good welcome. The room was fine though perhaps a bit on the small side and lacked an easy chair. It was very clean and had a super bathroom. The breakfast was very good and hot, unlike some hotels where the breakfast buffet is tepid. There is an option of having your breakfast specially cooked. Presently there are renovations going on but noise did not trouble us and work only started ay 9.00. There is free Wi-Fi and you get free use to a nearby fitness centre. We would come here again.

Owner Response, 18 Février 2016

"50th birthday night away"
Paul B, 15 Février 2016

My wife and I had the pleasure of staying once again. As is always the case from the minute we entered the hotel our stay was made pleasurable by the manager John and his wonderful staff. We enjoyed a fantastic meal in the restaurant that evening where once again the restaurant manager and waiting on staff were top notch. Breakfast the following morning was possibly my favourite part of the stay. Food was gorgeous and hotel manager John was his usual industrious and ever chatty self. Roll on our next stay!!

"Best value hotel in Manchester area"
steve t, 11 Février 2016

I've stayed here frequently for the past 5 months, but am now working elsewhere. Would always stay here if I was working close. The main reasons are: 1. Lovely friendly hotel, with great staff 2. Food has always been superb. Great buffet breakfast, with really good ingredients well cooked. One of the best, scrambled egg is simply the best. Evening menu varied, and great value for the quality. 3. On site parking, never had any issues finding a space, easy links, although A34 roadworks cause minor delays. 10 minute walk to station with direct link to central Manchester. 4. Comfortable rooms with good beds, and nice and quiet. 5. Value for what you get. Perhaps a little more than a budget hotel, but this offers so much more. For me no comparison. A great flagship for Best Western hotels. Hope to return soon

". Amazing!"
Melissa R, 11 Février 2016

I've been to 3 functions over the past couple of months and felt i had to leave a quick review as each visit has been outstanding! I went with my family ( 18 of us including 5 children) on Xmas day and the whole experience was outstanding. The manager John gave us a private dinning room so the children had room to play which was great. The food choice was super and we had no issues with my food allergies or catering for the children. Food was hot, well presented and amazing service throughout. The atmosphere was so festive and we are booking again for next year. I also attended 2 party nights over xmas and both were faultless , great music, 3 course meal, brilliant service with the food and on the bar. Management were on hand the whole evening making sure all went well. Excellent! looking forward to my next visit.

"Let's visit Manchester!"
Tilbilly, 02 Février 2016

For me this was a great hotel in a great location.. Free car parking, and only 15 minutes from Cheadle/Gatley.. The lift isn't working at present, which was news to me upon arrival.. That said the staff were very helpful with luggage.. The breakfast was nice, a reasonable selection of hot and cold food stuffs.. The room I was in was a little dated, that said the shower was really good! I slept well and despite the renovation going on at the hotel at the moment I did not hear any noise. Would stay there again. ??

"Avoid at all costs if you want to sleep! Terrible!"
Beckie W, 23 Janvier 2016

I stayed here Friday - Sunday as I was working in the area. Rooms fine, staff friendly but on the Saturday night I got no sleep at all. There was a very loud disco pumping out music downstairs until 1am....and I mean pumping it out. And from 1am - 3am I had people screaming through the corridors, banging on my door! Rather scary when staying alone. I understand some hotels host parties/weddings, but given it affects other guests so much in this one (I was told by a staff member that you can hear the music from every room in the hotel - there is no escaping it) why was I not told about this function on arrival or beforehand! The worst night's sleep I have ever had. I work in this area frequently and will definitely be booking in somewhere else next time!!! Also, the lift was out of order so you need to be fit, goodness knows what disabled customers do! There were also construction works going on with scaffolding outside the hotel and the gym is definitely not 5 minutes away - more like 15! Overall very very disappointing. Worst sleep quality I have ever had in a hotel!

Owner Response, 23 Janvier 2016

Dear Beckie Thank you for the opportunity to discuss your issues in more detail on Sunday morning when you checked out. I do apologise again for the inconvenience caused on this occasion and I will certainly communicate your feedback to my Team. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Christmas Party Night"
MrsMonkles, 16 Janvier 2016

We came to The Pinewood on Saturday 19 December 2015 for our Christmas Party. We arrived at approx 4pm and checked in at reception. Before we went up to our rooms we had drinks in the bar. Our rooms were lovely, nice and spacious, comfy bed and pillows, very clean and tea / coffee facilities. At 7pm we all met in the reception for pre-party drinks before going into the party room. The room was dressed lovely, the tables were fab with lots of Christmassy bits on and hats. The food was probably the best I've ever had at a party night, the turkey and beef were superb. Please pass our thanks on to the and chefs for a fab meal and the hospitality team for making it a really enjoyable atmosphere. A few of us weren't particularly keen on the songs the DJ was playing but you can't please everyone. Could of done with playing more Christmas songs throughout the evening. That didn't stop us though we danced the night away, had a great time and were the last up I think. Breakfast was great, cooked just how we like it (not just showed the pan), good selection of cereals, breads, fruit, meats, juices etc. As much tea and coffee as you required. Thank you to all the staff they are a credit to the hotel, John you have a good team there, look after them.

Owner Response, 16 Janvier 2016

Dear Guest First of all I would like to thank you for your fantastic review.

"Another good stay"
Shropshireskiers, 15 Janvier 2016

This was our third park and fly stay at the Pinewood hotel and was as good as on previous occasions. The charge includes accommodation, parking and taxi transfers to and from Manchester airport. The hotel is undergoing a major extension/facelift so there is a lot of scaffolding on the building. We were allocated an executive room which was of a good size and comfortably furnished, although it was starting to look tired. A hospitality tray is provided as is an in-room safe. The public areas are stylish and comfortable. The restaurant serves good food which is nicely presented. Alcohol prices are as one would expect in this type of hotel. My husband was pleased to see that a bitter ale has been introduced since our last stay. We like this hotel and will continue to use it when we fly from Manchester airport and recommend it. Staff are efficient and friendly. Housekeeping is good throughout the hotel.

"Great location, nothing fancy"
WimPetermans, 15 Janvier 2016

Stayed in the hotel for a few times in the last few months. Hotel has nothing special and is under reconstruction. Rooms are little oldfashioned and would be great if matrasses could be replaced. Feels like they have not been replaced in the last 20 years. Great bar and excellent breakfast. Very friendly service. I just book it because it is very convenient for my meetings.... otherwise would never consider to stay here.....

Dear Guest Thank you for your feedback in regards to your overall experience at BEST WESTERN PLUS Pinewood on Wilmslow. It is very encouraging to read that you received friendly service during your stay and you found the bar and breakfast excellent.

David R, 12 Janvier 2016

First stay at this Manchester hotel as part of a business trip. Room was small and smelt of stake cigarette smoke. Decor was tired and the heating in room was not working. Would have called reception but the room phone was also not working. Save your money and stay somewhere else.

"Decent hotel but covered in scaffolding as adding floors"
JessieO111, 10 Janvier 2016

The inside of the hotel is nice - smart restaurant and rooms. Lots of choice (hot & cold) for breakfast but beware that they clear away the hot breakfast food buffet a full half an hour before breakfast stops being served. You have to ask for a cooked breakfast then. Why not just leave it out until the end of service? Looks like they have regular coachloads of Japanese/Chinese tourists staying so make sure you time your breakfast to miss the rush. Staff are all friendly & polite. Would go back if needed to stay in the area again.

Dear Guest Firstly I would like to thank you for your positive feedback regarding your overall experience at BEST WESTERN PLUS Pinewood on Wilmslow I must say it is extremely encouraging to receive such wonderful feedback about the Team and I will certainly discuss your positive comments to them. In respect to the breakfast experience I can only apologise that this part of your customer journey left you feeling disappointed. On quieter days we do however cook our guests breakfast to order. Such large quantities of food is unnecessary to be out on the buffet due to low numbers but I have certainly taken your comments on board. I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards Lucy Wilson Front on House Manager

"A great stay seeing in 2016"
Douglas S, 06 Janvier 2016

After my daughte's wedding on 30 Dec our extended family along with the grooms family decided to take in a NewxYears Eve dinner and Masqurade Ball at Best Western's Pinewood. What a fantastic atmosphere and enjoyed evening by all 15 in our party. The staff were brilliant - obviously the Manager recruits and trains well. Polite, going the extra mile so much so that everyone in our party complimented me on choosing the venue. The evening's organisation was a very slick operation with good timely service for all at the ball, which given a 5 course meal was a well executed feat. Currently work building 19 extra rooms is underway but inside the building you would not be aware of this. Cannot fault this venue and close to airport and Manchester. Well done!

Owner Response, 06 Janvier 2016

Dear Douglas Thank you so much for your wonderful and kind words in regards to your overall experience at the Hotel. It gives me great pleasure to read and share encouraging feedback with my Team and trust me they will be thrilled to have received it.

"Christmas Day Lunch"
JAGUAR088, 03 Janvier 2016

All the staff were very friendly and obliging. Food was very good. Not as good as home cooking but so lovely to have food put in front of you and NO clearing up afterwards! Personally, I would have liked just a plainly roasted turkey. More vegetables needed and more gravy. Roast potatoes were not so good - not crispy like they should be! Having said, the overall meal was very good.

Owner Response, 03 Janvier 2016

Dear Guest Thank you so much for your overall feedback in regards to Christmas Day Lunch at the Hotel. We have started to call all guests who attended Christmas Day Lunch to receive their feedback whether it being positive or negative. I was working throughout Christmas Day and I personally checked back on all tables to ensure that all guests were satisfied with the food and the service that they received and the feedback I received was very encouraging. I will certainly take your comments on board and communicate your feedback to my Head Chef so that he is aware. It is pleasing to read that my Team came across very friendly and obliging and that you enjoyed your overall meal. Thank you again for your feedback and I do apologise for your concerns raised.

"Average"
Mikel_Arteta, 02 Janvier 2016

We attended a wedding reception at this hotel and it was ok. Parking was a bit tight, the bedroom was fine, garden was pleasant, breakfast was good. My wife ate the vegetarian option for the wedding breakfast (a curry) and was sick soon afterwards. The bar area was quite small and the choice or beers limited. Overall it's not bad for a one night stay if you're in the area and that's what you need. nothing to get excited about either way.

Owner Response, 02 Janvier 2016

Dear Guest Thank you so much for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at BEST WESTERN PLUS Pinewood on Wilmslow. I do apologise that the vegetarian curry that your wife ate made your wife feel ill. I will certainly discuss this comment with my Head Chef to make an understanding of what may have been in the dish that could have caused this reaction. The parking does get rather tight on some occasions, however we do have 120 car parking spaces which normally is ample. It is very rare that I receive a negative comment in regards to the choice of drinks on the main bar, however I will certainly bare your comments in mind. I do welcome your positive feedback about your bedroom and breakfast, much appreciated thank you. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards.

"The right choice hotel. "

What a lovely hotel this is. The reception, dining area and bar are a pleasant first view when you enter. We stayed here with family as part of the last stage of the new years holiday. Our experience was totally faultless. The atmosphere, the staff and total experience was extremely pleasant.

"Excellent overall stay over a few years"
sandra f, 30 Décembre 2015

Over the last few years we have visited this hotel, only for an overnight, on route to a holiday destination. On all occasions we had a superb and friendly welcome experience. We also left our car for the duration of our holiday,were taken to the airport and returned. This was organised by our the tour organiser. The restaurant food and service was excellent and would highly recommend it. This Christmas my husband booked it as a Christmas present to go and see "The Bodyguard" at the "Palace" theatre in the centre of Manchester. We had planned to get a taxi to the centre of Manchester which would have cost approx £30 each way. However we took a walk in the morning to see where we we were and discovered a station. The , returned at a fraction of the cost of at least £60. Have to recommend this hotel for friendliness, cleanliness and professionalism, especialy in dealing with any little problems. High reguards to,I think "Rick" who helped us move rooms. Stacey, the restaurant manager, John,the night watchman and very importantly, John, the General Manager. Not sure of the bar mans name but welcomed us back and remembered the drinks we had ( a true professional) Thorourghly recommend this hotel. sandra

"Great Christmas Party!"
Jove1970, 26 Décembre 2015

Came here for our group Christmas Party, even though I live nearby I have not been before. The hotel is lovely and clean, staff are very nice and friendly and the Christmas meal was perfect. Will be going back in the near future for Sunday lunch.

Owner Response, 26 Décembre 2015

"Christmas works night"
smokiecheshire, 26 Décembre 2015

We were booked here for our second year for our works party night in the Tatton Suite Three tables in a good location and nicely set with Christmas hats on each chair and a nice selection of party things on table The food in general was good especially for such large numbers my plate for my main course was so hot I couldn't touch it Lovely turkey meal and nice chocolate dessert Sadly for the second year running my colleagues who had the fish were not impressed. The main big negative for us was the terrible DJ when asked if he had any Christmas music his reply was "Christmas? " No The music he played was terrible and many of our party left early One other issue some people from another group who would not stay off the dance floor with drinks!! You really need to police this better Overall we have decided that maybe this year was to be our last.

Owner Response, 26 Décembre 2015

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your company Christmas Party that took place at the Pinewood Hotel. The feedback from our Christmas Parties has been very positive generally with various companies re-booking for next year due to how much they enjoyed every aspect of their event. I do apologise that one of your guests felt the fish dish was not satisfactory, I will certainly review your comment with my Head Chef. The feedback in regards to the DJs has also been very positive and it would helpful to know which night you attended so that I can look into your feedback in more detail with the DJ in question. I have certainly taking your comments on board in regards to guests taking drinks on the dance floor. As you can imagine it is difficult to police, however this is an area I will discuss with my Team so that we can improve moving forward. I do appreciate your positive feedback about various dishes that you were served and how well dressed the tables were and looked. I'm sorry to read that you have decided not return next year, however I would like the opportunity to discuss matters with you further so that I am given the opportunity to restore your faith in the Pinewood Hotel and continue to welcome your business in the future. Please do contact me at the Hotel at your own convenience, telephone number - 01625 529211. Thank you again for your feedback and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards John Scott General Manager

"Too cold for me"
york1, 15 Décembre 2015

I have stayed in many Best Western Hotels, both in the UK and aboard and showed my loyalty card on checking in as I have usually been given an upgraded room. Not so on this occasion. I wasn't too bothered as I was only staying for one night but the room I was given was not at all satisfactory. The bathroom was freezing cold and the radiator not working. I asked at reception if it could be turned on but was told it had been turned off for health and safety reasons. She said she would send a portable heater to the room which I thought would be more dangerous in a bathroom than a radiator. The heater never arrived so I has to suffer the cold. I was expecting hot chocolate along with the tea and coffee in the room but non was provided and the biscuits were broken into many pieces. I was woken up at 04.45 by noisy guests in the next room, the walls seemed to be very thin. I wouldn't return to this hotel

Owner Response, 15 Décembre 2015

Dear guest, Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I do apologise that you were not satisfied overall with your bedroom. Unfortunately the majority of our bathrooms do have disconnected towel rails due to the thermostat temperature being fixed which unfortunately has caused harm to other customers. We do offer electric heaters for our guest when needed only to be kept in the bedrooms. I will certainly review why your bedroom was cold on arrival. In regards to your complimentary upgrade, I must apologise that you were not upgraded during your stay. We do offer complimentary upgrades as much as we can to all our loyalty card holders but unfortunately when the hotel is fully booked this proves very difficult to perform. I will certainly discuss with Housekeeping your concerns regarding the Tea and Coffee amenities. My apologies once again for your disappointing experience, I do deal with negative feedback rather seriously and I will certainly be discussing your feedback to the whole Team. Thank you again. Kind regards Lucy Wilson Front of House Manager

"Clean and comfortable"
Neldoo, 13 Décembre 2015

Stayed one night in December - me & my mum in a twin room. On arrival we were warned that there were Christmas parties taking place, but that our room was "tucked away" and that we shouldn't experience any noise. This was very true. The room itself was really lovely - very comfortable and well equipped. Admittedly, the bathroom fittings were a bit out of date and 'tired', but still clean and functional. Didn't use the hotel restaurant, so can't comment. Only downside was the car park - disjointed from the hotel building and as we arrived in the dark, it wasn't clear how to actually gain entrance to the hotel! Thanks goodness it wasn't raining!

Owner Response, 13 Décembre 2015

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. I am so pleased that you did not encounter any noise disturbance from the Christmas Party's that were taking place at the Hotel. We do try and allocate guests who are not attending a Party away from the noise so that you have a good night's sleep without disturbance. It is also pleasing to read that you found your bedroom comfortable and well equipped. I do apologise in regards to the flow of the carpark being altered. It has caused some confusion since we changed the flow back in October. The car park route will remain until May 2016 once the building works is complete. Thank you again for your feedback. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Good place to stay"
Robin Y, 11 Décembre 2015

I visit this area on business several times a year and Best Western Pinewood is always an option for accommodation. It provides comfortable, clean and generally well appointed rooms. It is also very handy for the airport. The staff are unfailingly, pleasant and helpful. Just a few niggles to be aware of though. This may not be true of all rooms but I was woken many times during the night by the white noise of the flow of water in the central heating system. This may not bother everyone. Secondly in these days of connectivity I found my room a little lacking in power points. Also although the wifi connection is Ok and free, having to re confirm one's acceptance of terms and conditions every time one goes online is a bit tiresome. Finally, although the food in the restaurant is OK and there is a good choice, there was a distinct lack of liaison between dining room and bar staff. On both evenings I dined there, when I ordered my main I asked for a glass of wine. ON both occasions it did not arrive. On the second night I asked for a glass of a specific white wine. A red turned up. I sent it back. Then the wrong white turned up. By the third time of asking I had no idea if it was the white had ordered. By this time I would have liked to have seen the bottle ! To cap it all, at no time in the evening was I asked, if, "every thing was alright sir ?" Perhaps they knew not to ask. So what am I saying ? A place that is value for money for accommodation but if you are eating there be careful when ordering wine.

Owner Response, 11 Décembre 2015

Dear guest Thank you for your feedback in regards to your overall experience at BEST WESTERN PLUS Pinewood on Wilmslow. Firstly I would like to thank you for your positive comments and I will certainly communicate your kind words to the Team. I must apologise in regards to your dining experience, it is hugely disappointing and unusual to receive negative feedback regarding our Food and Beverage service. I will certainly look into this matter to understand why the situation occurred and why it was not dealt with in a much more professional manor. I do receive many positive comments from our guests however I do deal with complaints extremely seriously and act accordingly to ensure that other guests do not experience the same issues as you have done. Once again I do apologies for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards Lucy Wilson Front of House Manager

"Fantastic Party night!"
The12Powells, 08 Décembre 2015

We booked in here - a party of 15 ladies as a surprise birthday treat for our friend on Saturday. We only live 13 miles away but none of us had ever heard of the hotel - I have no idea why, as we had an amazing time and the hotel is great! The Hotel reception is around the side of the hotel so there is no glamorous frontage, but when you find the entrance it is bright, modern and really nice. As soon as we walked in through the doors we were welcomed and asked our party name. The hostess knew without looking which suite we were in, took all our coats and hung them up for us and directed us to our room. We had been put in a small function room (2 tables for our party), with 4 other tables in the room and a small dancefloor. We each had the usual crackers and party poppers on the table and also a really nice quality Christmas hat on each chair - a lovely touch. The two course meal was really lovely (sometimes the mass catering lets hotels down, but this was really very good. The service was good and the meal throughout was a pleasure. The DJ was brilliant. He told us he was happy to take requests and seemed to pick up on what we liked to dance to and he had a full dancefloor all night. One thing I was very impressed with was when he stopped the music to request a gatecrasher (a group of men appeared part way through the night from who-knows-where) put his drink on the table. He wouldn't re-start the music until the dancefloor was clear of drinks. I thought it was very professional of him. Two of our ladies did have a problem with the dancefloor as there were gaps in it and they got their heels caught in the gaps which scuffed them and damaged two pairs of brand new shoes - disappointing but they advised the staff who I have every faith in dealing with this properly, as my view of this hotel is that it is a really good hotel and very well run. We have already discussed having our 'couples' Christmas party there next year!!

Owner Response, 08 Décembre 2015

Dear Guest Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback in regards to your Christmas Party that took place at the Hotel. It is very encouraging to read such positive feedback and that you enjoyed the food and the service throughout the entire event. I do apologise in regards to the issue with the dance floor. This has been rectified so that this situation does not happen again in the future. Thank you again and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel for your event next year. Kind regards.

"Two night stay"
Melanie P, 06 Décembre 2015

With family attending a wedding and booked three rooms for two nights. One of the nicest hotels we have stayed in. Very accommodating in trying to place us close to each other as different rooms required. Our executive room over looking the garden was superb. One spacious twin and a perfectly adequate single. Clean comfortable rooms, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The hotel was busy with Christmas parties during the evening which just added to the atmosphere. The room s were still quiet. The breakfast was delicious and of good quality and still serving at 10:00am. Happy, hardworking,pleasant staff. Good value for money and overall a very pleasant stay. We would certainly return if the need ever arose.

"Great Hotel"
BobG1947, 06 Décembre 2015

Great hotel, very convenient for Manchester Airport. Good staff, very helpful. Good rooms with good décor and comfortable. However beware! If using satnav to find the hotel, the post code does not give the same road name as indicated on the web site. Also note that the hotel is not in Manchester! If you put in Manchester to the satnav and the road/no you will end up 10 miles from the hotel!!! Otherwise really recommended!!

"Christmas Party Night"
Bob P, 05 Décembre 2015

Our first Christmas Party Night last night at the Pinewood Hotel was really brilliant, from the moment we entered the bar area we were made very welcome, and we enjoyed a very pleasant meal served by very attentive and smiling staff, we will certainly be attending future party nights at the Pinewood Hotel, The only downside was that they do not serve draught Guinness, which I usually drink. but you can't please everyone all the time.lol.

Owner Response, 05 Décembre 2015

Dear Bob Thank you so much for your positive feedback in regards to the Christmas Party that you attended over the weekend.

My apologies that Guinness was not available in the function room that you were in and only available on the main bar. Thank you again and I will certainly communicate your encouraging feedback to my Team. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Very helpful staff"
Aw122015, 03 Décembre 2015

I am deaf and have stayed in many hotels over the years and always tell the reception staff about my deafness in case of fire alarms etc. during the night. Normally I get a vague promise about making a note of it but here the reception staff went out of their way to tell me about, and bring to my room, a vibrating alarm which could be put under my pillow. This is a very welcome service I have rarely encountered before even at much more expensive and exclusive hotels. The hotel itself is friendly and comfortable - the only reason it doesn't get the full monty from me is due to some building work going on at the moment.

Owner Response, 03 Décembre 2015

"Friendly staff, nice hotel"
Jacco B, 23 Novembre 2015

This hotel is a 10 minute walk from the Handforth translation and about 3 minutes from the village center. A 10 pound taxi-ride will take you to Manchester Airport, so I'd say it is a pretty convenient place to stay. Hotel-staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms are comfy and pretty well equipped.

"Excellant Pre Flight Hotel with Parking"
dawnieb90, 21 Novembre 2015

This is my 2nd visit to use this hotel as a one night stop over before a flight. We arrivied around 6pm on a Sunday and got a very friendly greeting and we had been upgraded us to a new executive room, wish I had been stopping longer, a very large beautifully furnished room with sofa, coffee table and well stocked refreshment tray etc, the bathroom has a bath and separate shower cubicle and lovely toiletries. We ate in the restaurant and the meal was good and again friendly service. We paid £95 for room only & 15 nights parking which included taxis too and from the airport, the transfers were very easy both ways and takes approx 15 minutes. Will definatly use again for an airport stopover or if visiting the area.

"Cold and noisy"
DrFerrari, 18 Novembre 2015

Nice hotel, good parking. The meeting room we were in had a divide down the middle and all the groups who used the room next door were very noisy. The bedroom in the top floor was very cold, so I turned the radiator on which made a racket and kept me awake most of the night. Told reception when checking out and they didn't care, which was a little annoying

Owner Response, 18 Novembre 2015

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel.

"Very Good Hotel"
Anne187064, 16 Novembre 2015

Have visited this hotel quite a few times both for business and pleasure and never yet been disappointed. Staff are always polite and friendly no matter how busy they are. Hotel rooms are clean and nicely appointed. Downstairs though maybe lacking in comfortable areas to relax in warm, clean and friendly. John Scott the general manager is a very visible team leader, very friendly and polite and his team do him credit. Would not hesitate to recommend this hotel and look forward to see what difference the current renovations will make.

"Great reunion!"
Logo4, 15 Novembre 2015

We held a school reunion here, and couldn't have been more pleased with the helpful service we had from the events staff. The food was fabulous and the whole night was amazing value. The hotel rooms were really comfortable, cosy and clean, and breakfast was delicious. The hotel staff provided a projector and screen at no extra charge, and put hydrogen balloons on the tables at only £2 per table - really great, thank you!

"Lovely anniversary stay"
Emmagiraffe, 12 Novembre 2015

We got married at the Pinewood in October 2014 and returned to celebrate our 1 year anniversary. We were given one of the newer rooms which also had a balcony, the room was lovely and the hotel had left us some chocolate strawberries. We had our evening meal in the restaurant, we have eaten here a few times now and again the food was wonderful, lots of choice and really filling! We had breakfast the next morning which was brilliant, all fresh and lots of options. It was quite busy in the morning, but there was plenty of food and the staff with the seating, toast, tea and coffee were great. Thanks again to all the staff at the Pinewood for providing fantastic service and a very enjoyable stay. We will back again soon for a meal or an overnight stay.

Owner Response, 12 Novembre 2015

"Disappointed about the service"
BCG84, 12 Novembre 2015

It was the second time that I stayed in the hotel, in both occasions due to business. This time we stayed with a big group - around 20 rooms. I was quite surprised that the hotel asked us to pay our stay when checking in even though they have the information about our company. It is the first time that a hotel asked us to do this. The rooms are quite small and little bit smelly - It might be due to the carpets.

Owner Response, 12 Novembre 2015

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It is very unusual that I receive negative feedback about the cleanliness of the bedrooms within the Hotel, however I will certainly communicate your comments to my Head Housekeeper who will ensure that this situation does not happen again in the future. In regards to your check-in experience it is our policy to take payment for the bedroom when the customer checks-in even if we have the customers details on our systems. My apologies if this was an inconvenience for you and your guests. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Good location : excellent venue"
Flynn43, 12 Novembre 2015

Stayed at the Pinewood for a weekend to attend a family christening. We greatly enjoyed our stay and would be hard pressed to find fault. My greatest acolade would be for the staff. Everyone worked so hard but never-the-less were consistently courteous and helpful. Our bonus was that the post Christening party was also held at the Hotel and was greatly enjoyed by everyone. The Hotel is close to the hub of the local road network and is accessible by taxi from Wilmslow Rail Station. Couldn't recommend highly enough

We stayed for a wedding in a nearby hotel. This hotel is modern clean with great service. The rooms are clean with all facilities and great bathroom. The staff were helpful and friendly.

"A great improvement."
JOHNRI3647AN, 01 Novembre 2015

We have been visiting this hotel for over twenty years,during which ownership changed hands several times....in recent years it has been taken over by the Best Western group,and it is remiss of me not to have made a review...we were there twice this year in June and September on both occasions we were welcomed assisted with our need for ongoing travel by the helpful reception staff,who always give that bit extra if you have a problem....the rooms are comfortable with tea coffee biscuits and room service ,the on suite is roomy and the fluffy towels we all love,all around there is a high standard of cleanliness and cheerful staff, The newly structured restaurant is a great improvement on the previous hotel layout,it is comfortable and the staff very obliging,the only disappointing feature is the menu,which is a little restrictive, which I feel the dishes available are like cooking by numbers and lack that finis that only a good chef can oversee,the wine list is very good and prices compare well with other hotels of this class,overall we always enjoy our stays at the Pinewood,even if we eat elsewhere on occaisions

Owner Response, 01 Novembre 2015

Dear John Thank you so much for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. It gives me great pleasure to read such kind and positive words and that you feel the Hotel has improved since the Pinewood became privately owned again. My Team and I have worked hard to ensure that the product and customer satisfaction is of a high standard and in turn we continue to invest in the Hotel but adding an additional 19 bedrooms on the roof. The Hotel and my Team continue to go from strength to strength and this certainly shows in your feedback, much appreciated thank you. We do have 2 menus in the Restaurant one being our seasonal menu and one being our al a carte menu both with varied choice, however I will certainly discuss your comments with my Head Chef so that the food offering can be reviewed moving forward. Thank you again for your feedback and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Hotel in the near future. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Great airport package"
Marie H, 22 Octobre 2015

This hotel is only 10 minutes away from Manchester International airport. The accommodation is excellent especially the executive rooms. Every convenience you would want in a hotel bedroom. The One Eighty restaurant is modern, tastefully furnished with a relaxing atmosphere. The food is fresh, well prepared and better than many other hotels. We could not fault the service. All staff in the hotel are respectful and friendly, the General Manager was in attendance constantly making sure everything was running smoothly. The park and fly package is very good value for money. Overall a beautiful and relaxing place to stay. We will go back.

This is a beautiful, elegant oasis only 10 minutes from Manchester Airport. Lovely lawn in the back, very professional and helpful staff. My room was spotless and cozy. I will stay there again. My only complaint....I was right next to the elevator and there was a rather loud group that arrived late in the evening....but that's not the hotels fault, just loud, inconsiderate people.

"Very nice Place near Manchester"
Kerstin K, 20 Octobre 2015

The Pinewood is a very nice and comfortable place to stay, either while visiting Manchester or on your way to the airport: Lovely rooms, friendly service and very quiet, for a place that close to the airport. It is a small hotel, only two floors, and it has a personality, mostly due to the lovely garden. A great treat for place that small is the free admission to the local health/fitness club with pool.

"Watch what room you get, very clean, excellent breakfast"
PAUL D D, 19 Octobre 2015

No effort was made by check-in to see if there was an alternative room available with an outlook before telling me there wasn't. I felt I was being fobbed off. The window in room 225 does not look in tune with the rest of the interior (which was excellent) gave a vey depressing atmosphere. Our colleagues in 216 had a good aspect. Also, one packet of biscuits between two people sharing seems stingy comparing with other hotels. Good point@ iron and board included.

Owner Response, 19 Octobre 2015

Dear Paul Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. First and foremost I do apologise in regards to the bedroom that you were allocated. It may have been that we were fully booked on the night that you stayed and the bedroom that you were allocated may have been the last room available, however I will certainly look into this situation further with my Reception Manager. As a standard we do only put one packet of biscuits in the bedrooms, however we do supply more if requested from Reception. Thank you again for your feedback and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager

"Third visit to Pinewood enroute to Sharm El Sheikh"
PhilnLorraine, 19 Octobre 2015

My husband and I have stayed on three occasions at the Pinewood, with a park and fly option and it is very good value for money. The first time was in one of the older rooms but was fine, but the last two times we have been luck enough to be upgraded to one of the modern rooms, fab!! Everyone there makes you feel very welcome (not sure of the girl on receptions name, think it was Kelly), she was lovely, the bar staff excellent. The hotel is in a very good location and not far for the transfer to the airport, which is all taken care of, wouldn't hesitate to stay here any time or recommend to anyone. The rest of the rooms are being upgraded so all in all this will make the hotel even better, if it could be much better, very comfortable indeed and a very big hearty full breakfast, very tasty and hot. Hope to be back soon thanks again Pinewood.

"Perfect Wedding Day"
Louise B, 05 Octobre 2015

We recently had our wedding reception at the Pinewood and cannot thank the staff at the hotel enough for making our big day so special. Hannah the wedding coordinator was great throughout the process and always got back to me straight away with any queries I had - as a bride with a lot to plan this took away a lot of the stress in the run up to the wedding. I left the table arrangements the day before with instructions on how the tables were to be set up and met Lucy who would be looking after us on the day (and her colleague Alice too) Everything was set up as requested and looked amazing on the day. The food was excellent and so many of our guests have commented on how tasty it was, the evening BBQ was enjoyed by everyone too. So many of our family and friends have commented on how wonderful the staff were, everyone from Lucy to the bar staff were so polite and could not do enough for us. We spoke to John the manager the following day to say what a great team he had - they made us feel like royalty during the wedding day and it was so nice to be so well looked after by everyone. The rooms were also great as was breakfast the next day. I would recommend the Pinewood as a wedding venue to anyone looking at getting married in the area and cannot praise the staff enough - thanks to all involved - we had the best day ever. Louise and Chris xx Mr and Mrs Bailey

"Close to airport"
Gatis_Stanga, 04 Octobre 2015

Hotel is located just 15-20 min driving with car from airport. Staff is very kind and professional. And also smiling Rooms are clean, nice and comfortable. Wi-fi is good and fast and free of charge. I suggest this hotel for staying in Manchester.

"Too hot for comfort"
Rossies, 04 Octobre 2015

We desperately wanted to give this hotel a good rating because the staff were so friendly & welcoming but our experience meant we would not stay here again. We booked a park & fly - room & 8 days parking & price was reasonable with taxi transfers but our room was so hot it was impossible to sleep. There is no air con & we had window open but on a sunny September day (16/09/15) the radiator was on hot & we could not turn it down. After a couple of calls a member of staff came up & told us that it was a general setting for all rooms & would go off shortly. That was not the case - indeed it got hotter & hotter. We asked for a fan & a member of staff brought what can only be described as an industrial fan. It was so powerful & noisy that it was like being at the end of the runway. We couldn't leave it on in what was a very small double room . We understood that the hotel was full so no chance of being moved. We ended up awake for best part of the night - the room would cool for a little while & then the radiator would come back on with a vengeance , blasting out heat. We love Best Western Hotels, both in UK & abroad but although this looked a charming hotel we wouldn't return because of this problem

Owner Response, 04 Octobre 2015

Dear Guest Thank you for your overall feedback in regards to your recent stay at the Hotel. As you rightly mention we unfortunately do not have the luxury of air conditioning in the bedrooms and it does get rather warm in various bedrooms when we have freak warm weather like we have done. We turned the heating on only a few weeks ago due to the nights getting colder, however the radiator temperature can be adjusted on the thermostatic valve. The only way to cool the bedrooms down is to provide a fan which doesn't suit all guests unfortunately. It is a shame that your experience has put you off from staying at the Hotel because everything else seemed to be very satisfactory. Thank you again and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. Kind regards. John Scott General Manager
