Good match for:

  • Culture Buffs: Just steps from the Palace Theatre and Manchester Art Gallery, ideal for theatre and museum visits.
  • Active Explorers: Complimentary city bikes and a free 24/7 gym let you stay fit while discovering Manchester.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Pool Seekers: No pool on-site, so not suitable if you want to swim or sunbathe.

My friend Aijaz and I from Saudi Arabia stayed at Krimptoon Tower for three nights in Room 351. We really enjoyed our time there, mainly because of the warm hospitality at the reception. Maryam (sorry if I got the spelling wrong) was amazing throughout our stay. She helped us with room options, transport information, and even suggested some nice nearby souvenir shops in Manchester. She was always ...

The hotel entrance and lobby is impressive. Good location and easy to find. Buffet breakfast was good. We had a few issues with the room, but the staff were great and handled these prompty. Can't fault the customer service.

This was, without question, the worst hotel experience of my life. The moment you leave the lobby, everything changes. The lobby itself is beautiful—clean, modern, and inviting—but as soon as you step into the hallway toward the rooms, it becomes a completely different world. The carpet is filthy, the lighting is eerie, and the entire atmosphere feels unsafe—like walking into a horror movie set. I...

We chose the Kimpton Clocktower due to it being ideally located opposite Oxford Road Station and the venue we were visiting, so from that perspective it was perfect.

I had noticed this a couple of days before arrival, and on emailing was told ...

A great Hotel with a lot of history connected to the building. If you want a modern building, you should stay somewhere else. Nevertheless, Location is easy to got to, Service is great, rooms are tidy and clean. Food is very delicious. I will come back.
