great service and location
Pros:

Must praise the service I received in the hotel. I'd booked for the wrong date, John and his colleague at reception were super helpful for sorting me out. The 14th floor bedroom was nice and clean, with a a view on the city. Recommended.

Excellent
Pros:

Our room was spacious and clean, walk in shower room was excellent, clean and spacious too for any type of wheelchair and 2/4 people. The endless supply of tea, coffee, sugar and curtains of milk from the reception day and night. Lovely to be able to bring in food and drinks of your liking and its great they like to recycle too. The meals were picture perfect and delicious
Breakfast was brilliant, full English and continental with extras and you can go up for more. I was allowed to take some of the food back upto my room for later, as long as I didn't go overboard and take all the tasty blueberry muffins.! The staff were helpful,cheerful and go out thier way to ensure your stay is a pleasant one. Top marks for everything I experienced and yes I definitely will stay at the premier Manchester city. Thankyou Cheryl

Good quality night sleep in Manchester
Pros:

Stayed on the 6th floor at the Premier Inn Manchester Central 28th Nov 2025. Lifts were super quick & quiet. Room was lovely & clean with quality comfy beds & bedding. Our room was at the front & had Triple Glazing. Although Trams do go past on the road below we never heard any noise at all.
This Hotel was "Perfect" for The Bridgewater Hall. It was practically next door & only a 2 min walk away. After going to a show in the evening we came back to the bar connected downstairs for a drink & prices are reasonable.
Manchester Oxford Train Station is only a couple of blocks away & Manchester city centre is walkable & lots of bus/tram/train options available.
We ordered the Buffet Breakfast in the morning & the Full English Breakfast was lovely. Lot of other choices available Cereals, Yogurts, Fresh Fruit, White/Brown & Seeded bread, Croissants, Fresh Cakes & variety of Juices & Hot Drinks with good Tea & Coffee Selection.

Not so Premier anymore!
Pros:

The cleanliness on arrival was poor in the reception and corridors. The fan in the bedroom was loud that I had to turn the heating off to get some sleep and could still hear the fan next door. There was an alarm going off on the scaffolding outside for over 2 hours during the night. There's no parking so had to park next door which cost a fortune. There's only one plug on one side of the bed to charge your phone. No biscuit with your tea/coffee and not bottle of water on arrival. Lots of costs being cut but still charging the same. The overall quality of Premier Inn has gone down this past year.

Not great at Manchester ( disappointed for a Premier )
Pros:

Hotel ok , shower had some problems , parking was a nitemare for this inner city hotel , ring road to navigate , nearest car park at Central , under the building , quite a walk , stairs and a busy road and tramline to cross .£66 to add to bill for car park charge
Breakfast was ok , no one around much first morning , left empty box out of tea , still not replaced following morning ( sloppy attention to service ) went onto Southport next night , much better in every way !!!

Stained bedside table
Pros:

I had a mixed experience at this hotel, when I stayed overnight for a work meeting the following morning.

When arriving staff were friendly and attentive and check-in went smoothly. However, when I went into my room there was… a suspicious white substance… over my bedside table and bedframe of the liquid variety… 🤮

I went down to reception to complain and the receptionist looked a bit non-plussed but apologised and sorted me another room which appeared better but it did put me off, understandably! Mistakes happen and this was clearly missed but I probably wouldn’t stay here again

Premier plus lacking the plus
Pros:

Premier plus room was lacking in comparison to other premier plus rooms at different locations. The hair drier and coffee machine both didn’t work. The room and bathroom was also small again in comparison to other premier plus rooms I’ve stayed in where they were almost double the size. Would definitely say for value for money was not there as it was relatively expensive for what you got. Unfortunately, I’ve come away disappointed of spending that much money for a hotel room.

Customer Service Extra
Pros:

Having stayed at this hotel for two nights and eating both breakfast and evening meals which were perfect, on leaving and arriving home I realised that I had left my camera, on contacting them by phone I was advised to get a Jiffy type envelop, self address it and pay postage and send to the hotel, which I did and within five days of me posting the envelope to them, I received my camera back so a big thank you to the staff at Princess Street Premier Inn, Customer service to be prod of

Avoid, there are many better. A very run down restaurant with unhelpful staff . The hotel is not the best either.
Pros:

I stayed at this hotel with my wife as we were going to a nearby show that evening. I had already checked in prior to arrival. The weather was stormy so we decided to eat in the restaurant The Bishopgate which is the attached Premier Inn restaurant serving the hotel. Hotel reception staff informed us that we did not need to book but just turn up. This was far from reality. When we did go to the restaurant at 5.15 we were told by the staff that they would not serve us as they were fully booked. When I told them that the hotel reception said I did not need to book they just said that they were wrong and the restaurant was not the same company as the hotel. When I pointed out the internal door between the two there was no reply. I was left with no option other than to seek out a local restaurant to eat in. We did use the restaurant for breakfast and found it in need of a complete refurbishment. Torn and dirty seating that is well beyond its expected lifespan. The breakfast itself was mostly cold although some items were luke warm. The fried eggs had obviously not on the heat very long in the kitchen as there was very little egg 'white' but a lot of clear uncooked egg. It's not difficult to fry eggs but seemingly beyond the abilities of the 'chef'.
As for the hotel itself, it was very basic but functional. The bed was at least comfortable and the tv worked. The bathroom was exceptionally small. It was not possible to stand in front of the sink without the back of your legs being in contact with the toilet seat.
Would I recommend this hotel? No. I have stayed in other Premier Inn hotels, even in Manchester, and never felt the need to review negatively. They must look at this establishment and make improvements.

Good service as always, great view over the city
Pros:

An unusual place to stay, I must say - above nine floors of car park! The view from up there is very interesting, though, and we got all the ushal Premier Inn amenities: soft bed, quiet and dark room, big TV set, tea and coffee, bathtub, plus very friendly staff and good food and drink on the site. The only problem was the temperature: both our room and the restaurant were a bit cold.
