I had a pleasant stay at Holiday Inn Express Manchester City Centre Arena. The location was ideal for quick access to the Arena and other city spots, while the clean rooms and comfortable beds made for a restful night. However, the breakfast area felt quite busy, and there could have been more variety in the food offered. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I'd consider returning.

My stay at the Holiday Inn Express Manchester City Centre Arena was generally positive, with a fantastic location just a short walk from the AO Arena. The staff were friendly and helpful. though I did encounter a few cleanliness issues that could use some attention. The breakfast was decent and had a good variety, but some replenishment needs to be more efficient.
