Weaste Hotel, West Manchester Hotel

Hotel is closed. Derelict building, windows covered, gate padlocked shut. Don't book it - it's no longer operating.

Didn’t even manage to get to my booking date of July 2025 before they decided to cancel my booking even though it was made a year ago. No reason for cancellation and impossible to contact them, OYO customer service were no help, hotels.com are uncontactable. But from the rest of the reviews it looks like I dodged a bullet here. Absolutely hideous experience and didn’t even get to the hotel.

We got to the place on the Friday around 6.30 pm to find the front doors chained shut, no notes or away of making contact with anyone. we spent 40min trying to find another place to stop, After a few weeks i get a parking fine for being on the car park of the Hotel, have been in touch with the booking agent and cant get a refund.

When we got there the doors were changed shut locked like the place was closed down
Could not find any one

How can I get a refund

Absolute kip... Took 1 look at the room and left.. Cob webs everywhere... TV hanging off the wall... No lock for the bedroom door... Smell was shocking... Was at the loss of 100 euros but couldn't stay there... Booked travelodge in Salford and ran out the place...

From the moment we stepped into the hotel the stench in there was horrific. Something I couldn’t describe, we walked into the room and the stains that were on the wall looked like they have been there months if not years. The lights were broken off the wall, spider webs in the corner of the rooms. A broke off piece of wood in the corner also. The door had no lock also so there was no guarantee for our safety or security of our belongings. They should be ashamed of themselves. And just as we leave whilst my brothers phone was on charge he gets a shock from one of the sockets. Whilst we will be looking at bringing this further, we are still awaiting a refund from the hotel as you can not contact them directly. Please avoid this hotel for your own good !

Place was filthy.

Unfortunately it was a very poor experience. My room was very dirty like it hasnt been cleaned for weeks if not months. Bedding had some sort of dry bugs shells asked to change at least the bedding but the new staff person changed us to a diffeeent room which not only was as dirty as the first room as it had a massive whole in the wall with weird messages written on the wall. Mattresses did not have a single spring working. Radiators was not working on both rooms. The hotel smell also not best. Ive stayed in many 3rd world really cheap hotels but this is by far my worse experience in my life. I do not recommend. It was really cheap but its a cheap that definitely is not worth it.

third class service no room lock no security smeely rooms and beds everything is third class A BiG BiG No …. guys don’t get fool

The smell, dirty, rough looking walls, no tv. No towels or soap until asked. Not sound proof. Really poor experience.

This place was very terrible.
When I got to reception, I waited about 15mins before I got service.
There door to the corridor leading to the room had no handle and there was no lights so I had to use my phone torchlight to get to my room.
In the room, the TV was smashed with glass hanging off it. The room smelled and there was dead bugs hanging off the ceiling.
The bathroom floor was broken there was a visible crack in the which could have been dangerous if I had my bath in it.
I couldn't stay the night, I checked out immediately and complained to Expedia.
This place shouldn't be listed on any hotel booking site anywhere. If there was a rating less than 1 star, I'd give it.

My friends and I booked this room for a single night to sleep over in Manchester after seeing a show and it was just awful. We should have known it wasn't worth booking when we could even get in touch with anyone at the front desk with the reception number for queries about our booking. Then on arrival, the room itself looked like a battle royale had occured there the previous night with multiple holes in the walls and door of the bathroom. The bathroom also looked unfinished and unclean with missing tiles and a grotty shower cubicle. To top it all off, the room door wouldn't lock and when we brought it up to the manager, she was entirely unbothered, unhelpful, and first tried to gaslight us into thinking the door did lock, and when that failed to work, then tried to turn it on us for not realising that the lock didn't work and that we should've brought it to someone's attention sooner. She didn't even seem to care that we were 3 young women feeling very unsafe in a foreign space at close to midnight and after a minute of just staring at us blankly, she just walked away like nothing happened. We ended up having to just up and leave because it just didn't feel safe and wise to stay in such an awful and insecure place. Cost us £130 just to go back home since everywhere else was booked up as it was so late. I sadly can't add the video we took of the non-functional door lock, but here's photos of the doors and walls of the room.

DISGUSTING. This hotel should be shut down immediately. I would not house animals there. We left and chose to drive 3.5 hours rather than staying in that hotel as we were left stranded. Rooms full of black mold, not just 1 or 2 rooms, nearly all of them. Like a horror movie. As soon as you walk in you are hit with the stench of damp and mold, which is unbearable. Room 2 (family room) had flooded carpet, with brown water coming up through it when walked on. Holes in walls, blood stains and god knows what else on the walls, felt physically sick. Please be aware your rooms do not lock and can be opened without a key card, which we found out when talking to others at the hotel. Complete false advertising, staff were not helpful and acted as if this is normal to have rooms in this state. I have never had such an awful experience with a hotel. I could not say one positive thing about this place. Save yourself the money and sleep on a park bench, you would have a better experience. Do not believe the photos on the website or replies from the property, this place needs to be insepcted by environmental health and closed down.

On arrival the hotel reception smelt really bad, there wasn't anyone on reception, I was waiting for about five minutes until anyone came, my room was horrendous, damp on the walls, stains on the carpet, no handles on the window and the smoke alarm was covered up with a black bag, the room was dirty.

We stayed at The Weaste Hotel in Salford on Thursday evening and were very disappointed. The amount of rubbish and mould in the room was disgusting. If we hadn't have arrived late at night from the airport we'd have walked straight out.

I took photos of the used sanitary items and soiled tissues left in the bathroom, the blocked and dirty shower and the mould everywhere.

I tried looking for a member of staff to complain to but couldn't find anybody, despite repeatedly ringing the bell. I've also repeatedly contacted both Hotels.com and The Weaste Hotel for a refund with no answer.

Smells really bad, room want cleaned when we checked in and we just had to wait, bags on all the fire alarms? Idk man, so creepy.

Check in was at 3pm, the room assigned wasn’t clean, was given another room that wasn’t cleaned. Third room they gave me had broken drawers, you couldn’t fit around the sink to get to the toilet. The shower had mould in it. Reception guy had a tracksuit on and his personal beat headset on his head when he eventually appeared and the manager hung up the phone on me when I called the number at the desk to check in. I was woke up at four, which sounded like a nightclub going off. Turned out to be another guest partying on drugs. I would never recommend anyone to stay at this place. By far the worst I have ever stayed at in Manchester.

Walked in to the lobby where we were basically suffocated… told “told worry about the smell, we just had to spray some mosquito bug spray”

Waited ages to be checked in… when we got up to the room we noped out of there within 10 minutes instead choosing that driving another 3 hours home was preferable than staying here.

There was dirty marks all over the way, screws sticking out of the wall, something stuck all over the ceiling, huge dead spider smooshed into the ceiling, the TV WAS SMASHED UP and the socket for the TV was hanging partially out of the wall. There was damp in the room, unfinished plaster and a broken radiator. The bedding was stained and torn.

AND THAT WAS JUST THE BEDROOM!!!!

The bathroom also had screws hanging out the wall, presumably for the mirror that was no longer attached to the wall, the toilet did not flush the properly- probably for the best given that it was not even attached to the floor or wall merely sat held together but unsecured pipe work, hopes and wishes!!! There was about 1/8th of a dirty damp toilet roll and only 1 towel (for a double room)…. Not that that really mattered given that we couldn’t have a shower as there WAS A MASSIVE HOLE/CRACK IN THE SHOWER TRAY rendering it about as useful as a shower as a chocolate teapot!!!!


Wish I could upload more photos to show the full extent

How can i claim a refund for this booking, the hotel was dreadful with Mold in the rooms and the door key cards did not work leaving the rooms open for anyone to walk into, such an unpleasant visit with no safety measures in place, we ended up leaving and booking into another hotel
