Willow Bank Manchester Hotel Comments & Reviews

Nothing too much trouble
I have recently attended a course in Manchester and have stayed at the Willow Bank Hotel on four occasions and I wish to express my thanks to all the staff from receptionists, to the porter, bar and restaurant staff.
I am aware that staff are trained to respond to customer needs but nothing was too much trouble and everyone was very courteous. I felt comfortable as a lone female in the hotel and agree with the sign in the lobby, which states ‘you are staying with friends’.

Resounding Success
I am writing to express my appreciation of your efforts to make my birthday celebration such a resounding success.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our evening at the Willow Bank and would like to thank all the staff involved, including yourself, for making it a perfect venue for such an occasion. I am so glad I decided to accept the services you offered.

No other venue comes close!
Just a quick note to say thanks for the excellent hospitality I received when presenting courses.
I have been in this role now for some 7 years, however none of the venues I have used during this time can come close to matching the service you and all your staff provide.

Superb event
After having a fantastic New Years Eve at the Willowbank Hotel in Fallowfield I write to you to say how good it was and to name members of staff who had been brilliant.
It prompted me to book my 60th Birthday lunch there on May 18th fir fifty guests. Again I have to write and say how good the whole event turned out to be, Neil Stockill - Deputy Manager organised a superb event and worked very hard to ensure I had a really lovely birthday. The food was delicious, so congratulations to chef and all members of his team. The bar staff worked hard as did the waitresses.

A Dream wedding day
We can only describe our "wedding day" as a dream, just a perfect day and certainly this was a lot to do with our choice of venue.
Thank you so much for all the hard work from all the staff both in the lead up to and during the event itself. Everything went so smoothly.

Courtesy and Politeness
We have just stayed at the Willowbank Hotel, Manchester as a pre-wedding weekend as we are getting married on the 3rd July and would like to compliment the staff on their courtesy / helpfulnes and politeness. They where more than helpful with any queries that we had and we would recommend this hotel to anyone. We have stayed in Best Western hotels before and never had such a welcome. We intend to continue to use Best Western where ever possible.

"Non Stuffiness"
Neil I have to say in nearly 6 years of working for HRG I have never been made more welcome in any other hotel than I did in yours!!! Yourself, Michelle and Hazel do a wonderful job in making people feel welcome and the hotel has an air of "non-stuffiness" which is a refreshing change. The food was lovely and my veggie sausages at breakfast were greatly received!!! I will be sending an e-mail to Dena and your head office to express my gratitude in you guys for making my stay a very warming and relaxing one. Andrew was very happy also and loved his teddy as I did!!! It was great to meet you too and I will definitely come back to your hotel again when staying in Manchester. I will also inform people of what a welcoming place the Willow Bank is. All the Best
