My room was only the basic rate double but I found it great value for money: spacious, well styled and with a nice bathroom and a handy fridge. The lobby had a calm atmosphere and the breakfast selection was hi… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews

There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.

Our criteria for collecting guest reviews

After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.

When will my review appear on the website?

Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.

How long will my review stay on the website?

Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.

Can I get a reward for my opinion?

No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.

Can a review be edited?

No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.

Will my review appear on other websites or publications?

Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.

If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?

No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.

  • The top reviews of The Alan are: Excellent situation in the city centre. Reception staff very welcoming. Rooms and other parts of the hotel very quirky ie ceiling pipes visible etc - sounds odd but works somehow. We had booked a double room but informed on arrival it was upgraded to a signature room. Bonus. Room was large, bed was huge, shower/toilet etc clean, tea/coffee making facilities. Double glazing meant the room was quiet despite being in the city centre. We hadn’t booked breakfast but decided we would pay the £17 (to be fair felt that was a bit pricey) and that would mean we could relax before catching our train. When we asked if it was ok because we hadn’t pre-booked breakfast the receptionist said it was fine - and then told us we could eat for free! We were only staying for one night as part of a visit to the theatre and have to say we were very impressed by The Alan and should we ever stay in Manchester again would not hesitate to book a room here..
