Top hotels in Old Trafford
Clayton Hotel, Manchester Airport
Great stay as usual, asked for a ground floor room and that’s what we got. Food and service are spot on and the beds are sooo comfortable. Everywhere is spotless and clean. The airport shuttle next morning over to the airport was seamless. Will definitely stay here again next trip.

TRIBE Manchester Airport
A great hotel for early morning flights, staff very helpful, room was clean, with all that yo need and more. The only bad point is the price in the bar/restaurant, but that is expected.
