Afternoon Tea
Pros:

We had a lovely Afternoon Tea at The Lowry Hotel. I had gluten free which was excellent, sandwiches quiche scone and assorted cakes. All staff were very professional friendly and helpful. Our waiter was Denilson, he was aware of my gluten allergy, helpful with the changes made. Making the chef aware, who made the changes. Nothing was too much for them.
We would definitely recommend the Afternoon Tea.

Nice hotel, food ok
Pros:

the property was modern and clean

Cons:

The AC did not work as it should. It cuts off from 1 AM to 6 AM and those rooms get pretty hot. I’m speaking to the staff regarding this. The communication between management and reception breaks down somewhat.

Overall a very comfortable stay and a lovely hotel and staff
Pros:

Friendly staff, great room exceptionally clean and large comfortable bed.

Cons:

Temperature in bedroom always a bit too warm even with lowering the air conditioner it wouldn’t go below 20 which for us was too warm at night. If put fan up on air conditioner to try and cool more, it was too loud.
