My stay at the Manchester Marriott Victoria & Albert Hotel was quite enjoyable, marked by the hotel’s unique charm and friendly staff. While the breakfast was good, I do wish there had been made-to-order options like omelettes.

Overall, it was a clean and comfortable place to rest my head after exploring the city, though some room facilities could use an update.
