"Good menu and service. The atmosphere was dizzy, but still able to talk. The tables were squeezed when you walked past the tables, sometimes felt the couple beside us was overheared to say that the same... a bit more space would improve the experience."

"The restaurant was quite full at 7:30pm with large parties and noisy children. In fairness it was Valentine's Day. Whilst it is always nice to see families with children dining together the somewhat intimate ambience the brasserie seems to target does not seem best suited to young diners. Possibly the problem is that hotel does not offer a more suitable restaurant option for those with youngsters. The bar area serves food but is rather large and not exactly cosy. The food was OK. The onion soup was extremely tasty but the cheese in it was surprisingly over generous making it a struggle to eat. The wine list is as you would expect in a London hotel, was quite expensive but with some excellent options. I made the mistake of asking for a brief pause between starters and main which as it always inevitably does, turned into an unacceptably long delay."

"The chicken was dry and flavorless. The ginger cake was okay, but a bit dry. The coffee was a disappointment - I was served instant coffee disguised as an Americano. I couldn't refuse it as I had an American guest with me and didn't want to embarrass Manchester. The service was slow and the overall experience was not worth the high price."
