Reviews summary
This summary was created by AI, based on recent reviews.
Powered by AI
Despite its prime location near the town center and airport, Best Western Manchester Altrincham Cresta Court Hotel has received mixed reviews from guests. While the convenience of nearby shopping and ice skating is frequently praised, many travelers have expressed disappointment with the hotel's value, mentioning overpriced amenities and unexpected charges.
The rooms are often described as cramped and outdated, in need of a refresh. Guests have appreciated the cleanliness and certain well-maintained areas, yet service levels appear to be inconsistent, with commendations for the reception staff but criticisms of service elsewhere.

Detailed Reviews
Altrincham is a perculiar place to find a hotel not many choices, the Cresta court offers a very good blend of free parking, a central location and a fair price,the front lobby is ultra modern and a traditional standard reception with excellent staff is manned twenty four hours. The corridoors are quite narrow and can feel a little hemmed in but the hotel is kept to a good standard. The rooms are on the small side but furnished very well, i think since my last visit the beds have been changed and some new furniture added, some nice touches with a cosy chair to watch tv or read and biscuits with hot drinks this is a rarity these days. The bathroom is acceptable although water pressure is a bit weak, the only real negative i have is that some faint noise is heard from the air con or kitchen fans even on the third floor and this can disturb sleep to a degree, All in all i like the crest court it has a home feel to it and is so central for Altrincham and Trafford.

We enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is well situated close to Altrincham town centre and there’s loads of free parking. Room rate we paid was good value at under £60/night and although the room was rather small, it was fairly comfortable and worth the money. Our main complaint was the hard mattress. Staff were quite friendly on the whole although check-in was awkward as apparently the system was down. There are hand sanitisers everywhere and Covid precautions have been taken. Breakfast decent and comprehensive. Staff happy to help with requests for ironing board, milk etc. Generally a good hotel.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
I have stayed here a few times & had diff rooms, but this time all the EXC rooms had gone & given 356, very small double, but its quiet. I was upgraded by AJ as Man United football match was cancelled due to Covid as got room EXC 330 as my usual EXC room was booked. I stayed 4 night, 2 nights I paid with points, paid for 1 breakfast £10, 2 nights on a great deal on the website for BW Reward card holders. I had to this via BW hotels on the phone to use your points, but its worth it. I had a lovely stay room very big with big double bed very firm how I like it, 4 pillows. Cupboard plenty of hanging space, lots of drawers, safe in a cupboard, but due to Covid open, but locked so you can't use it. Plenty of tea, coffee, milks, sugar, bis, 2 bottles of water, coffee machine. Sofa bed, extra coffee table & 2 chairs. Decor could be updated along with the windows, clean & tidy. Bathroom shower over the bath, but needs a heated towel rail or heating, plenty of smellies, needs a lick a paint too. Plenty of towels.... Hot water, power shower was powerful. Housekeeping didn't come in due to Covid, but you could get most things from front desk ask before 11am the following am, but I saw housekeeping on the floor, so just ask for the items I needed. Thank you for keeping us safe. Plenty of hand gel around the hotel, wear masks in public places of the hotel. Plenty of free parking this time too.
Thank you to AJ, Andrea, Karen, Hannah, Rachel who checked me in/out. Sorry to hear Emma C & Scott have left, wish them well. Breakfast was buffet, help yourself, plenty of it. Thanks to Karen & Bev who I have known for along time, Keira & to the chefs Rob, Frank & Nigel. Wishing you all a Merry Xmas & Happy Healthy 2022, looking forward to seeing you all very soon. See my other reviews on this hotel.

This is my hotel of choice for a pre flight stay and parking.
It’s a brilliant location close to the airport and you can ask for a private taxi to be included in your quote with car parking. The price is extremely reasonable and better/cheaper to book direct with the hotel than through any other source.
Other than value for money it’s the staff that make this hotel special from a lovely greeting at reception to the amazing Karen at breakfast nothing is too much trouble and you’ll be made to feel that you’re the most special guest they’ve had!
Great amenities a short walking distance with a trendy nightlife of bars and restaurants.
The hotel restaurant has a good menu very reasonably priced too if you would rather stay in.

We stayed one night before our flight from Manchester Airport. The reception staff were most helpful, efficient and answered our questions. The room was small but adequate, very clean and comfortable with a nice bathroom and tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast was fine, nothing special but this is not a holiday destination hotel, it is for business stopovers and PERFECT if you're flying from Manchester Airport. The taxi organised and paid for by the hotel arrived on time, and the taxi on the return journey arrived very promptly, both taxi drivers courteous and well presented in clean vehicles. Thoroughly recommend as a Park & Fly hotel, we will be using again. Great start to our holiday!

I have stayed at Cresta Court a few times now, and have always found it to be very straightforward and easy. OK, it's not super-luxurious, or boutiquey, but in my experience, everything is clean, it all works and the rooms have everything you need. In fact, having stayed in super-luxurious and boutiquey hotels in my time, I would say Cresta Court compares very favourably on a lot of metrics. Check-in is friendly and competent, the rooms are spick and span, with full length mirrors and mirrors by a desk/table so you can do your makeup without having to put all your stuff in the bathroom basin. They can't offer amazing views of the beach, or a beautiful medieval city etc, but that's not why you're in Altrincham in the first place. The restaurant is not a gourmet hub of experimental gastronomy, but breakfast and dinner are both nicely cooked and served. In other words, it does what it sets out to do really well, and is very good value for money.

The hotel was very easy to find with plenty of parking. Upon entering at reception I was greeted by a very welcoming and friendly member of staff who sorted out my room and gave me all the info I needed about room service and breakfast. All the staff I met were very friendly and chatty. The room was good nice comfy bed the only let down was the windows as with being next to a busyish road could hear the traffic. Apart from that my stay was very good

Excellent location to access the airport only 10-15 minute drive, The town with many eateries is only 10 minutes walk. Staff are friendly and the rooms are quiet and comfortable. I've had mixed experience of eating in the restaurant hence the 4 rating

I had to spend a few nights in Manchester on business. I work for a charity so I try to keep my costs down. I would say that the Cresta Court compared very well with other hotels I have stayed at, even some that cost half as much again.
The room was very clean. One of the bed lights was not working and the TV was on a stand that was about five degrees from horizontal but otherwise I felt that it was well maintained. There was hanging space but not a lot of room to store other clothes. I only had breakfast once but it was very good and you could eat as much as you wanted. I wish I had more capacity.
The hotel has parking but I went by taxi from Stockport station as I had to see someone on the way. I went back to Stockport by train which only took about 16 minutes. There is also a direct tram service into central Manchester and the hotel is on the junction of the A56 and the A556 - so transport links are excellent. The train station is about five minutes walk from the hotel; and there is a bus station there, too.
Altrincham is a handy place to base with lots of cafes, supermarkets and take-aways within walking distance.
