A very classy feel about the place; the rooms are spacious and well-appointed. The kitchenette has everything one would need (I didn't use much except the coffee - very good it was). Whilst the hotel does not have a restaurant, there are several excellent places to eat within a minute or two's walk including a Michelin-mentioned one next door. One of the best hotels in Manchester.

Nothing, really. On pretty much everything, the hotel is top class.

Great location just off Canal Street - and minimal street noise. Very comfortable bed. Friendly and helpful staff. Loved the decor and general vibe, especially the large windows. All very clean. Almost all the amenities you could want. Clear pricing for the minibar etc so you wouldn't spend on anything by accident!

Can hardly fault the place really. Would have preferred a light by the bathroom mirror to be able to do make-up etc - the only two mirrors available were in quite dark or backlit areas of the room which made this difficult! The pillows were a bit soft for my liking, but that's personal preference.

Pleasantly surprised by this hotel. I travel all over the world for work (and pleasure) but I live in Britain and know what it can be like selecting a hotel in an area you know but still don’t quite know. This place is fab! The building itself is one of quaint historic preservation. The entry is comfortable, much nicer than bright lights and a huge desk. Staff were very kind and although I didn’t need help because I simply wanted to rest, everyone was calm and happy to greet me. My room, hands down was an absolutely perfect set up. Sofa, tv, small kitchen, a little table and ‘good’ coffee and tea in room. Then crossing into the bedroom - a large and very comfortable bed, deep tub in the room, a tv plus a closet and a loo with a great shower. The thing is, there has been a lot of thought in the placement of furniture and layout, plus lighting—I prefer muted lighting and watching tv last night was like being at home. I cast from my accounts to both TVs. Furnishing nice. Snacks were great and since I actually was so comfortable I basically just ate most of the snacks instead of going out, olives, hummus crisps, a couple other random things. Although not overly healthy to just eat snacks, at least some alternative options were there. A tiny bottle of milk was in the fridge. It’s the little touches that make life easier. Only suggestion, perhaps a lightweight sofa throw…but that’s a first world problem. Big coffee cups in the room. And the location is absolutely great—couldn’t be better. Right there and easy to get anywhere if I needed to. I’ll definitely come back here. I didn’t try the breakfast because I needed to get to my meetings and I was so comfortable I stayed in my room until the very last minute. Picturesque and pleasant. This hotel is permanently on my list for Manchester stops.

This property is so amazing. everything has been carefully thought about and the choice of decor is honestly so inspiring I need to re-do my own house. they think about everything. the shade of green on the reception desk is the same shade used to tile the outside patio. it’s a stunning, gorgeous room. I may be bias, as I am from London, for 200 I had a penthouse. I woke up and had a coffee with the electric blinds lifting and revealing Manchester. I had my little dog joining us - for free I must add!- and they tucked up his little teddy in bed in the most adorable way. they keep the whole property to this amazing level of cleanliness and every single member of staff seems like a genuinely nice, decent human. they are either all born actors or they genuinely love this job hahaha. they are all kind, sweet and due to that, I can’t see them doing that fake customer service smile which is common in hotels like this. I have extended my stay due to the love I have for this place and I already plan on coming back. I am so happy and my feet are too with the free socks 😂! Thank you so much for my stay, I want to move in hahaha. honestly, if you’re considering staying, do. it’s so worth it, it’s just amazing and you won’t regret it.

absolutely nothing. there was not one bad thing I could say, they were so helpful and had everything on hand.

Everything was excellent, the location, the staff, the room, and an absolute bargain for what you get. One of the nicest places I've stayed across all of England, with more amenities in the room than some places I've stayed in for triple the price.

The *only* problem, and it's not necessarily a problem for all, is that parking has to be sorted out (and therefore paid for) separately. And even then, they're right next to several carparks so it's just an extra cost to keep in mind. If I'm being nitpicky, and I can't stress this is such a trivial thing, is that i wish there had been a microwave. There were many amenities I didn't use (washing machine for example) but I would have used a microwave

Room was pleasant and well appointed. Location is great, close to the main station and within easy walking distance to most of central Manchester's attractions. Staff were friendly and helpful. Continental breakfast was fine and served in nice room overlooking the canal.

Housekeeping turned up to service the room between 5pm and 6pm on both of the full days we were there. We sent them away both times as we'd come back to the room after a day's exploring and just wanted to chill out in peace by then. So the room was never serviced during our stay, which was a bit annoying.

What don’t I like?! The Leven really is a place you start to miss, whilst you’re there in the sense you don’t want to go home. I really appreciate that they go above and beyond to make the stay so enjoyable especially with their attention to detail, specifically their earplugs and socks. As this was the second time staying there, it really felt like returning home! Also the staff are nothing short of amazing and were so understandable given that our flight was delayed. I didn’t catch all of their names but just know that Dani and co. are the best!!!

Beautiful hotel, perfectly located between train station and right in the centre. All staff were so friendly and helpful. Room spotlessly clean and well equipped. Gorgeous toiletries provided. Comfortable bed and pillows. Amazing shower. Tasty coffee and cocktails, too, if you don't want to venture too far. There are so many good places to eat nearby. Rooms have an iron, ironing board and hair dryer. Our room had a great kitchenette with dishwasher and washing machine too. Would absolutely stay here again when visiting Manchester again. Hands down one of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed in.

We were really surprised to receive a free room upgrade on arrival. Room was beautiful with gorgeous free standing bath and separate lounge and kitchen area. Loads of space. Great decor. Located along canal street so busy, lively area and easy to get to other parts of city easily. Although lively area we didn't hear any noise when windows closed. Staff are really welcoming and friendly. Although we didn't use it, lounge and bar felt welcoming and comfy with really lovely decor. Would 100% recommend to others and will definitely be back!

Not sure air con was working properly in room (but it might have been us not using the controls properly!)

Great location, great space and decor in the room. Staff very friendly without being pushy at all.

Only very minor points, as nothing noteworthy to criticise- For the quality (and price point) of hotel and room it was odd that there were no tissues. There was a lovely bath in room which was very slightly poorly positioned as in order to use the bath without giving the neighbours a view, you have too close the blinds which almost dangle over the bath itself rather than being tight to the window. An odd design oversight. We were provided with one pair of lovely new socks, but given that there’s a lovely bath in the room, some (disposable recyclable) slippers would have been very much appreciated.
