I have gone to the www.cheaperthanhotels.co.uk site and am pleased with the variety of choices that the Manchester hotels listed at this site offer. You can go to the “cheap hotels” section and find scenic and cosy accommodations in an idyllic setting from $71 or choose the four star and five star section, and take your choice of being surrounded by the beautiful Cheshire countryside and 20 acres of idyllic landscaped grounds or 2 . historic landmarks. Some are within walking distance from the main shopping, business, eating and drinking districts. Local attractions include Chinese Arts centre, Imperial War museum, Manchester Art Gallery and Lowry center.
