Kimpton Clocktower Hotel

The hotel is amazing; the old building has charm and character. The lobby was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The hotel was warm throughout and we were welcomed by very helpful and pleasant staff. The room was massive with everything you need and more. |The bar has a great feeling to it with the staff making cocktails and a DJ creating a brilliant atmosphere. |The restaurant again has great theming, food for breakfast was lovely and staff again were welcoming and helpful. |A wonderful city break!

We just spent one night at Kimpton Clocktower Manchester and enjoyed every minute. An absolutely stunning building with incredible Victorian architecture, lovely original features rich with history and character. On arrival immediately drawn to the enormous and magnificent bronze horse sculpture in the lobby, breathtaking! |The hotel was decorated beautifully for Christmas, giving a lovely festive ambiance. |The check in process was very friendly and professional, we were given an upgrade through my Elite status. Our room a King Premium was a good size, furnished nicely, fantastic large mirror and the bed was very comfortable. Good amenities with a tuck box of treats, mineral water, espresso machine and great to have fresh milk, although could benefit in having wine glasses available in the room. Spotlessly clean white-tiled bathroom with a rain shower the only downside was not having a handheld shower also. Lovely Rainbow Bar toiletries and the heated towel rail provided extra comfort. The hotel is huge, a maze to navigate around it was always a challenge to find our room!|We always love partaking in a Kimpton social gathering, at the Kimpton Clocktower it was hosted in the Post Room such a sophisticated and elegant space but we had a less favorable experience as the staffs interactions were lacking compared to other social hours experienced.|The following morning breakfast was served in The Refuge, it was delicious and fulfilling. The buffet consisted of cereals, pastries, hot cooked breakfast items and additional hot dishes that could be ordered. The impressive Winter Garden conservatory area is a beautiful place to enjoy a leisurely breakfast.|Kimpton Clocktower is an excellent hotel and is the perfect base for trip to Manchester, good value parking at the NCP Oxford Street we paid at the hotel £20.00 for 24hrs.

Absolutely phenomenal building. The whole building is full of history. We loved having a walk around and exploring. |The entrance hall is gorgeous. The staff were fabulous. The rooms were beautiful with really high ceilings. |Absolutely loved the wardrobes and the proper milk was an absolute bonus. |The hotel let us leave our bags with them whilst we walked the city. They were extremely security conscious, which you don’t find in many hotels. It was great to see that they didn’t leave the luggage room open for any guests to enter. We felt safe leaving our belongings with them.|The children loved the complimentary crisps in the room.|Thank you for a lovely stay.

I had an awesome experience here and this is so far my favorite hotel experience. Lobato provided excellent dinner service and was cool to chat with down in Refuge. Sharon was such a friendly face upon arrival and she made me feel welcomed and even sent up a personalized list of her recommendations as I was a solo traveler without a concrete itinerary. She and Kate were super helpful at the front desk whenever I needed them. 5 stars from California

We arrived on Sunday 29th December for a brief 1 night post Xmas pre New Year treat. We were not disappointed. Check-in was seamless and we were greeted with a very warm genuine welcome. Our room was beautifully appointed and spacious with stunning original features which gave an added attraction. All needs were catered for including a small fridge with a tasteful small bottle of fresh milk. We took advantage of The Post Room complimentary drinks offer between 5-6pm which was a lovely gesture. After drinks we enjoyed a truly sumptuous Sunday roast which my wife and I agreed (a rare moment) was possibly the best Sunday roast we’d EVER eaten !!! The following morning we had an equally pleasant fulsome breakfast experience with every taste catered for especially the ginger aperitif and the incredibly attentive genuinely friendly staff that even took the time to engage in conversation. The whole start to finish experience was wonderful and the most memorable abiding memory were the staff both at Check-In, Post Room waitress, Refuge restaurant waiters and breakfast staff that were a true CREDIT to your incredible USP !!! BRAVO 🙌

Not only a beautiful building, the staff were so welcoming, patient and helpful. Made the children feel very special. Bedrooms were very clean and comfortable. Kids were impressed by the nice salts for their bath, and how quickly the water ran. Shout out to Andrea and James, and the staff at the Winter Gardens bar for being so accommodating and friendly.

Absolutely lovely building. Great service and room extras. The one thing bad is the breakfast. £22 per person is expensive and the selection is comparable to a premier inn. Perhaps spinach added to the buffet would make it more appealing

Stayed there for one night and it was very pleasant. The room was nicely designed not just your usual plain white hotel room and came with lots of little extra bits such as bath salts and hot chocolate and crisps. Also was very pleased finding out there is a hairdryer. However the tv doesn’t have many channels giving you limited options and the temperature dial in our room didn’t work. Apart from these minor factors everything was great. The staff were extremely welcoming and attentive we even managed to get someone to change the filter in the room thinking that might be the heating problem. Also having gotten breakfast there it came with an extremely wide variety of options more than I have seen at most hotels. Would definitely visit again. Great location in the centre of Manchester.
