A fantastic experience worth far more than what I paid for, the rooms were of immaculate quality, and the staff all approachable and incredibly kind. Roomy and well stocked, I didn't feel like I needed anything during my stay. 5 out of 5.

A very trendy, warm, cozy, comfortable aparthotel. Across from Canal Street. The staff are friendly and accommodating! There is a nice coffee shop on location, The Foundation Coffee, which has a delicious selection of breakfast/brunch food.

Likes - the area was very walkable and close to everything. Grocery store across the street and a very pretty bar in the front of the building. Enjoyed access to a kitchen and washing machine. Dislikes - stayed on the first floor at the front of the building and found it very loud at night. I could hear the lyrics to the songs playing in cars as they drove past the hotel. I guess the beautiful old building doesn't come with modern day sound proofing. Unit could have been cleaner, especially in the washroom. The staff was either lovely or they ignored you - it was a very mixed experience. I’ve stayed at other Locke properties and this one didn’t live up to the brand.

I had a most excellent stay here. It’s a walkable distance to the Manchester Piccadilly train station and city centre. There are also many restaurants close by to choose from and a Tesco’s across the street. Not only a convenient location, it has a great coffee shop downstairs and a beautiful sitting area to hang out, check messages and enjoy the beautiful space. The wifi was also never spotty or slow. I would totally stay here again. The staff were helpful and friendly and our room was comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. Really felt like home!

I don't have a single bad thing to say about our stay in this hotel. The room was comfortable and well laid-out, but what really makes this place special is that the lobby area is a really popular cafe / co-working space, so it feels vibrant and lively rather than just being wasted space like in most hotels. It's a really nice part of the building as well, and the cake in the cafe is excellent! All the staff were friendly and welcoming, especially Hannah, who was absolutely lovely.

Excellent Location. Easy walking distances to Central Manchester and Piccadilly Train Station. The room was quiet and comfortable and very well appointed. Little touches like the magnets to block the light from the digital readouts on the microwave and heat register and the welcoming coffee and popcorn were very much appreciated. The staff were very friendly and helpful with directions and suggestions. This place is a gem.
