Overall the stay was good just a couple of things that could be improved on. No bathrobe or slippers in room despite being told in an e-Mail they would be. Went to the spa to get them to be told we had to go to reception for them. As I had an early treatment very limited time to go in the pool due to time wasted. In the evening food was late due to another function taking place. However the food and staff were excellent.

Stayed here once before, there seems to be lack of communication as to where or whom you get your bathrobe for the spa . There was a cracked tile in the hydrotherapy pool which I cut my elbow on , this was reported and I was told it would be dealt with that evening, it wasn’t

Dear Yvonne S., We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Mercure Manchester Norton Grange Hotel & Spa. We investigated hydro pool, further to your feedback. Our night's team emptied the hydro pool and investigated the tile you are referring to. I can confirm that there are no cracked tiles found. the pool is now filled back and back to use as normal. Hope this one odd experience will not deter you returning back to us. We look forward to welcome you back in the near future. Sincerely, Rama Arimilly. General Manager

As I explained in my e-mail to the hotel dissatisfied with the price we paid and the service we received. Paid for 25 mins spa treatment only received 15 mins no robes or slippers asked for towels to be sent to the spa reception none arrived. Receptionist not very helpful she could have informed us when we checked in that there was a laundry issue other guests had robes and slippers should not have provided some and not others food was ok had better. As this was a reunion of friends getting together having not seen each other for 2 years and one friend who was getting over cancer it was a very disappointing experience. I am sorry to say would not recommend your hotel. Regards Susan R.

Staff wonderful and very helpful. However I had requested a twin room but given a room with a double bed and a pull out bed as an alternative. My daughter found the pull out bed too short as her feet hung over the end. I find a hotel that cannot provide a twin room is very unsatisfactory.

mrs58 26/02/2020 TripAdvisor review

We chose this hotel for the location and had also been recommended it by Rochdale FC. Football match was booked for my husbands birthday. We arrived way before our check in time but the receptionist allowed us to complete paperwork, gave us our key and left our suitcase in store room. A notice was displayed saying there would be a wedding that evening and might be noise. We asked where our room was and was shown it was on the top floor well away from the party room!! We had a coffee in the lounge and before we had finished drinking it the receptionist came and told us our room was ready!! Beautifully furnished Privilege room with "Happy Birthday" spelt out in rose petals on the bed along with towels made into elephants. Complimentary water and cola inroom as well as hand made chocs. Ordered sandwiches about 19.30 in bar which took quite a while to arrive, probably due to wedding and other guests staying there. Great breakfast full English and continental. Proper thick bread for toast and individual jars of jams etc. We would highly recommend this hotel.

My enduring impression is of being cold. Watching the curtains moving in the draft along corridors; feeling the draft in the dining room; turning the heating up in the room to 30° for six hours to get it warm enough. It was January in North Manchester: surely the outside temperature hadn't taken the hotel by surprise! The room was clean, everything worked, the toiletries were fine, the bed comfortable: if the temperature had been right, this could have been somewhere to come back to. At dinner the ossobuco was off: in fact chef had decided a while ago to take it off the menu but the menu hadn't been changed yet. Food prepared from fresh - the steak, for example - was fine; the rest felt a bit reheated. Away from the reception desk, staff were great: chatty and friendly without being intrusive. But reception at check-in was a bit grudging, while at check-out we had to wait five minutes while the person on the desk dealt with an irate departed guest on the phone: no getting help from a colleague to check us out, no apology when the call was over. I wouldn't say I'd never stay there again, but next time I'm staying in the area I'll look to see what alternatives there are before booking this hotel. Checking out

Dear Tony, Thank you for taking time to share your feedback further to your recent visit here with us at Mercure Norton Grange Hotel & Spa.

ianwbryant Business - 31/01/2020 TripAdvisor review

Infrastructure especially rooms nicely refurbished, comfortable and quiet. I have stayed many times at Norton Grange and generally eat out. However, on Monday 27th January we decided to give the restaurant a try. Menu looked appealing. However, food was terrible for 2 of our party of 4. The curry was rejected as it looked like boiled chicken chunks, no sauce. Represented with some curry sauce but frankly still a disgrace. The other bad meal was the Thai dish and presented dry, lacking in prawns and pretty tasteless - another disgrace. We will stay again for comfortable rooms and location convenience but definitely not have dinner. Hence low service rating and value for money.

Dear Ian, Thank you for taking time to share your constructive feedback further to your recent visit here with us at Mercure Norton Grange Hotel & Spa. I am glad to learn you enjoyed our fully refurbished bed rooms. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations in relation to food; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies. I will certainly address this our chef & work on improvement in this regard. Hope this one odd experience will not deter you returning back to us. We look forward to welcome you back in the near future. Best Regards Rama Arimilly. General Manager
