Best Western Manchester Oldham Smokies Park Hotel

An on site bar with outdoor seating is mentioned, and parking is easy with plenty of spaces. Parts of the property are newly renovated, though some areas felt a little tired or undergoing works.

Reviews frequently praise very clean rooms and public areas. A few note lapses such as stained towels or a dirty bathroom.

Rooms are often spacious, with comfortable beds; some have modern, large bathrooms and suites include extras like jacuzzi baths. Downsides include thin walls, dated décor in places, bright external lighting, or occasional equipment issues like non working TVs.

Staff are widely described as friendly, helpful and professional across reception and breakfast. Some guests experienced issues such as a mistaken extra payment at check in and slow or poor service in the bar or at breakfast.

Setting is quiet and feels safe, with convenient access to the motorway and easy parking. It sits a little outside town, but Ashton is walkable and a bus stop and ride hailing make city trips straightforward.

Breakfast is often praised for quality and variety, and staff can accommodate dietary needs. However, several reviews cite shortages, poor coffee, slow or absent bar service, and inconsistent dinner quality.
