The Oddfellows Arms

Staff was absolutely lovely and helpful, there was Saint Particks day downstairs so understandably the in went on for a bit longer but I felt were confortable joining the audience of the karaoke party.

Second time of staying at the Oddfellows Arms (M27). I really enjoyed the stay here, the first night myself and my girlfriend were in a dorm room. We easily fit onto a single bed which was surprisingly comfortable. The second night we stayed in a double room which are priced amazingly. The bed was comfortable, you could not hear anything from the dorms and the showers were always hot, which is a bonus at cheaper hotels. You have fresh bedding, towels, topped up teas and coffees everyday! Free parking nearby too! Well definitely be back. A massive thanks to Pete who is a great manager. - Josh & Beth

The owner/managerbwas super friendly ane chatty and very helpful with reccomendations for food places and getting around. However: Its in a very busy, loud pub, that has karaoke nights on a Saturday night (bring headphones) The places is is dyer need of an upgrade. Decour is peeling, damp in places and toilet room smelled strongly of urine! Was in a bunk room and fellow travellers had no respect for others (loud, turning lights on, swearing etc). Due to the heatwave (and the previously mentioned other guests) it was unbearable and didn't sleep a wink! Fans in the room would have been beneficial. That being said....beds were super comfy, reasonably priced and located very close to the M60!

Peter was a wondeful host, even getting me a fresh towel late at night when I was coming home late from a festival. The room was a shared dormitory with bedding done daily and the toilet facilities were kept clean. The rooms are above a small pub which gets a little lively on the weekend but you get a 10% discount on the already cheap drinks. Would stay again happily.

We had a weekend stay and it was very good! The hotel has a pub in the ground floor and they run several activities every weekend! Good option to meet new people. Note that this could mean some background noise very late at night, so if you are looking for a very quiet place to rest, this might not be for you. Our host Peter was very kind, attentive, and available to help us with anything we needed. The hotel is a short walking distance away from a bus station that can take you to the city centre; depending on your destination it could take you between 30-60min (it took us approximately 55min to Old Trafford Stadium). The hotel offers self-service breakfast and has shared toilets and showers in every floor. These areas were always clean which is a big plus!

The free parking is a good option and access to local buses makes the hostel a good choice for me in the area.

Peter was very welcoming and good to get travel updates before arrival. Room clean and nice to have a simple breakfast buffet with option to cook too. Room was cold and had to put a coat on as the heating didn't kick in until around 9-30 / 10pm....info in private room said that all windows ie toilet and corridor were to be left open for ventilation. seemed a bit odd but open roof space in corridor added to the chill ! Heard Karaoke going on which I was kindly warned about but not an issue. Decent value but need to address the late thermostat time badly!

Absolutely fantastic stay. The breakfast alone deserves a mention. Usually you go to a place that has all inclusive breakfast, and it’s a loaf of bread, bit of milk , an apple and cornflakes…. Not here! The sheer amount of choice was incredible, catering for everyone from vegans and vegetarians to those who are gluten-free. There was even a mix of wholemeal , gluten free and white bread, fruits, all types of alternative milk, pastries , pancakes, yoghurts, cheese, 5 or 6 cereals(and gf!)and the option to cook yourself a full veggie/ vegan/ meat English exactly how you like it. The bed was really comfortable, the place spotless, and I felt completely secure throughout my stay. The people I shared with were lovely, and Peter, the owner, was the perfect host — couldn’t do enough to help. We chatted for hours, and he was a hive of local knowledge, full of great tips on places to visit, eat, and how to get around. This place is also dog friendly at NO additional charge. How many places can you say that for in Manchester?! I’ll definitely be going back and can’t wait for the next excuse to come to Manchester.

The actual venue looks nothing like the venue. People shouting in bear garden at 2.30 am. Someone shouting at 5-6am in another room, likey having a mental breakdown. Didn't feel safe here at all. Two bathrooms, one shower not working

Great place with great value for money friendly staff with fantastic service definitely come back again pub has great entertainment

The host Peter is lovely & very friendly I can’t rate the breakfast as I didn’t eat it in the end. I’m aware it’s budget so not expecting much but hygiene is an issue what needs addressing. No fresh towels as promised after initially being told to use the ones in the bathroom what had been used as they was thrown on the floor. The Wallpaper was hanging off the wall the blind was useless it’s all broken so the light just streams in, I get it’s an old building but there is a very strong smell in the room. The shared toilet carpet needs pulling up it strongly of urine and also wobbles to the side when sat on !! I don’t expect a mega amount for the price but the place needs a bit of tlc & a good clean if you are charging people to stay. I’ve ran a proper good old pub myself so I’m aware of what’s expected. My advice is take the review onboard to try and better potentially a great spot to stop in. Lovely host who seems lovely please have a look at a few things please

Booking in a joke bar person no idea wot to do then took ages trying to find key & ended up in different room. Tea tray was dreadful. Tv didn’t work. Live band directly below room didn’t start til 10pm !! When asked for glass to take to room I was given a pathetic plastic cup, not classy Following morning probs with shower & no toilet roll in shared bathroom. Breakfast was a cook it yourself joke. Bits bacon few eggs no juice no decent continental to pick from. Left very hungry , dirty , cold & tired. Even the night before all the drinks I ordered were out of stock. Avoid at all cost

Very plesent 2days at the oddfellows warm welcome on arrival Peter the hoist was very welcoming could not do enough room very cleen with lots of wardrobe space bed very comfortable sraff very helpful and polite. 10/10 I will return definitely

I Will start off by saying that the owner Peter is friendly and accommodating. The place is not far from the train station, and you can get to Manchester in 15 mins. However there we’re some issues with our stay. First the whole place smells strongly of cigarette smoke and I found a burnt out cigarette butt in the shared toilet beside the sink. The room was rather scruffy with mould on the ceiling and mysterious stains on the bed sheets. The music from the bar downstairs was very loud and plays til late. Very loud karaoke. Also can hear customers drinking and yelling in beer garden til late. Only available light source is the ceiling light that comes with an added surprise of being a Bluetooth speaker which someone from the bar had un knowingly connected to while we were in bed late at night. The speaker was blaring uncontrollably and changing colours rapidly. The only way to stop the invasively loud sounds was to turn the light off completely as there are no buttons to control the speaker part of it. Obviously as it’s above a bar you know what you’re in for with the noise, and if you like a drink, karaoke, and socialising with the locals, it’s a good spot for you. If you’re travelling with intent of having a quiet and early night, might not be the place for you. All in all an unforgettable stay.

Super dirty. The room have no toilet. Its shared bathroom and the toilet is choked and dirty.

Worried about using the showers, as lots of black mould. The single toilet was clean, though. Spilled coffee/liquid on the floor outside our room door. Room dated and in need of decorating. Aerial for the tv was loose, so the tv kept going off. Rusty radiator. Coffee granules on the carpet, stuck to my feet. Dried up coffee. Dirty mugs. Blood and scratches on our van in the morning, after parking it in the side street! Bits in the bitter. Had to cook our own breakfast and no eggs available, so a full cooked breakfast ended up being bacon on toast. Still, you get what you pay for.

Oddfellows lives up to its name 100% Exteriorly the building scares you; peeling paintwork, broken wooden fences, dropping facias, even a broken half hanging To Let sign as cherry on top! But once you meet the proprietor, and gets inside, I was enlightened! In brief, I can say many hotels, even 6 * hotels in South East Asia, I've stayed in, I've sworn under my breath that the rooms were designed more for aesthetics then for living in; one pet hate of mine especially Travelodge is NO power socket plugs by bedside; how to chat on phone whilst in bed? They expect you to get out of bed, trot over to other side of room to plug your phone in, get back into bed, then Tttrrriiinng, a new message notification comes in! It's annoying! But in Oddfellows, the room is obviously less luxurious as it's a hostel BUT it's damn practical, there's a barrel of power sockets beneath the bedside cabinet, a practical bedside lamp that has a simple switch, a nice size wardrobe with LOTs of hangers not FIVE like most boutique hotels, a tiny cute fridge, a quick dispenser kettle not typical hotel kettles with cords that's always not long enough to reach the limited power plugs and a washbasin with soap dispenser and towels, great bed with clean sheets etc Out my room, round the corner, 5 metres walk is the absolutely clean large shower and toilet you can swing several cats around, no probs. Breakfast is unique too, you cook it! Overall; thumbs up 👍 have booked another stay for later this month

The staff were friendly .if you want and expect nudget accommodation than this is ok.but our room wasn't clean,it meeded hoovering and dusting and walls paimting.we clean holiday cottages and with a proper clean it could be so much better and thats just a bit of time.we couldn’t get tv to work either,it all had to be signed into but wouldn't work when we tried.they had just started doing a cooled breakfast too which was good.but again the bar area needed a good clean..window frames.roomy bathrooms,nice shower.

What can I say. I had high hopes. The Host is pleasant. Bar has good prices. Breakfast is there for you to cook and make yourself. Although pans were dirty and no way to clean them. Facilities. Smells of stale cigarettes throughout. Room was absolutely disgusting. Smelled like a dirty gym locker. Walls were soaked and mold is growing everywhere. I was told that it was being worked on but who’s to say when. Guests were inconsiderate. Talking and watching tv into the late hours. The bar is loud downstairs. It carries into the room and had I not had earplugs I may have been more uncomfortable. Bathrooms are gross. Mold all around sinks and showers. One shower wouldn’t power on. I booked for two nights ahead of time. Had I shown up earlier the first night I would have left immediately. Second day I left and found a place cleaner and closer to the city centre.

Does the job, Peter and all the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The room is basic but is equiped with wardrobes, sinks and a comfortable double bed. The smart tv was a nice addition - not many hotels at this price range would offer this facility. Breakfast is do it yourself but the spread was good.

Overall, I enjoyed my time. I really liked my roommates, and the bedding was comfortable. I could feel some of the mattress springs, but I got decent sleep. The host, Peter, was pleasant and welcoming. Despite signs saying to keep doors closed because the heat was on, it was always cold in the rooms and halls. The bathroom never had toilet paper in it, but no one else ever commented on it, so I just made-do. I did not say anything and I accept that. Some nights were noisy because of the bar downstairs, but that's to be expected. I found it easy to sleep through. One night we had some particularly rowdy residents fighting and the shouting was very annoying, but my roommates and I stayed up just chatting, instead. Check-in and check-out was very straightforward, although the getting in part took longer because I was early, called, but did not leave a message. Entry and exit from the building after check-in was very easy. Breakfast was provided for, with a variety of choice. However, you needed to be early, lest other residents eat all the portions provided. That's not the fault of the host; greedy people are everywhere. The surrounding neighborhood was very quiet and felt safe. The bus stop is just a 3 minute walk from the back door and connects to a larger bus terminal in a short distance. The area is farther away from Manchester City Centre, but you guarantee some peace and quiet, if that's what is preferred. I enjoyed my time and would stay here, again.

You have to share the bathroom with other guest and also the showers are small. The bed was old and my body was sleeping in a hole made by clients over the years. The room was cold and without any type of heat. The morning breakfast was a joke, the best and only worth eating was the green bananas. Under the room it’s a bar that is func

Peter was very welcoming and good to get travel updates before arrival. Room clean and nice to have a simple breakfast buffet with option to cook too.

We needed an overnight stay. The Oddfellows is in poor shape. Room was adequate and reflected what we paid. Bathrooms at either end of corridor, toilet roll taken by other guests as soon as replaced by owner. Bed was comfortable and overall our stay was good. We wish the owner luck with his future plans.

We had a nice stay here. We picked it as it wasn't to far from where we were headed for the Manchester comic con, it was good enough for what we needed it for, bed was a bit soft but this is personal preference and we had okay sleep. Was loud on night but your above a pub so expected with territory, flashing lights outside window were distracting when getting to sleep. Chef was unavailable on Saturday morning which happens and he came and explained to us that night and offered a refund for that, which was very much appreciated and we thank you so much for this, i think the chef must have not been in sunday morning either but we had a portable hob and a few things left for us to fix our own in the breakfast area so this was okay. Emergencies are bound to happen so thanks for the explanation on Saturday evening. I'm sorry we didnt mention but i just would like to bring the owners attention to the photos on hotels.com, when i booked the images showed a double room with a tv in and a little seperate sink, im not sure whether this was a little mistake or overbooking of that room type etc but would just not want others to book and expect a tv etc in their room and then complain about it. Saying that we both were not overly bothered since the wifi was great and when we had a busy day we were able to watch some things using our phone. Unfortunately the bin had been missed in the room when we checked in but I understand things can get overlooked when your busy. Good overall, thankyou.

Peter is really good but unfortunately the staff he got is horrible. They don't know how to greet customer's.

Fantastic weekend, couldn’t have asked for more. Staff were fantastic and the owner/landlord Peter was so welcoming, friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. One the best weekends we have had away this year. Would definitely go again.

Peter and the staff are welcoming and very helpful

Really amazing stay for the price! Peter is kind, welcoming and very knowledgable about the area. The locals are fun. Cook your own breakfast is incredible. My dog, Donnie, has really settled in and felt it was like home. Can’t fault it at all!!! Plus an amazing bonfire night set up by all the lovely staff working here! Keep it up! 10/10…I’ll definitely be using it as a regular when visiting Manchester

Very friendly and helpful, and great value for money

Peter was an amazing host, even upgraded my room because I missed the first night and had vacancies in a room with a double bed. Amazing breakfast too! Had a lovely convo with Peter as well. Thank you!

This hotel was ideal for getting into Manchester, great price, nice clean room with tv and tea and coffee facilities. Best bit was the friendliness and helpfulness of Peter. Many thanks

This is a great place to stay. We used this hotel as our base as we backpacked across Europe. My wife especially enjoyed making our own breakfast in the fully stocked kitchen. Peter was a great host with lots of tips that made our travels even more enjoyable. The Swinton Train Station is a short walk from the hotel. Everything was great!

The accommodation was basic However the service provided by Peter was outstanding. and the breakfast was excellent. there was a huge choice including Oat milk and you could eat as much or as little as you liked. Peter was a perfect host and a mine of information. He was most helpful. I would definitely recomment the Oddfellows Arms and would stay there again.

Cheap and cheerful. Peter was amazing and very welcoming. Will definately be back

Overall a great budget friendly property. The staff and host were particularly nice and told alot about life in Manchester. The location is good as bus no. 8 goes to the city Highly recommend if you're solo traveller looking for a cheap stay in Manchester.

I’m a solo female traveller and it was really safe, you’re from the center but there’s a bus at 2/3 minutes walking distance that goes directly in the center and then to move around in the center there’s a lot of free bus. The breakfast is really good! You can do laundry and on weekdays there’s really few people. There’s a lot of music on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, but with earplugs or AirPods you’re good-it’s wasn’t really a problem for me.

Owner was nice but the place was hard to find

The free parking is a good option and access to local buses makes the hostel a good choice for me in the area.

Flexible, friendly and personal service at a great price. Easy enough to catch a bus into the city too. Highly recommended :)

Location is good and close to train station

Peter was a very good host and is very helpful. He upgraded my room for one night because of a cancellation and I appreciate it. Although the cleanliness and hygiene was not up to my expectation. The plates and bowls at the breakfast were not clean and the bedding seemed to not have been changed in the dorm room for sometime. Overall for the price I paid it was a good stay.

A nice place above a pub outside of Manchester with comfortable bed and a hearty breakfast. Owner/Operator was extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

Absolutely fantastic stay. The breakfast alone deserves a mention. Usually you go to a place that has all inclusive breakfast, and it’s a loaf of bread, bit of milk , an apple and cornflakes…. Not here! The sheer amount of choice was incredible, catering for everyone from vegans and vegetarians to those who are gluten-free. There was even a mix of wholemeal , gluten free and white bread, fruits, all types of alternative milk, pastries , pancakes, yoghurts, cheese, 5 or 6 cereals(and gf!)and the option to cook yourself a full veggie/ vegan/ meat English exactly how you like it.

A warm and friendly welcome was in fashion here! If you’re happy with simple style accommodation with a budget price tag to boot then this is for you. Don’t expect grandeur! This venue is more than adequately comfortable with all requirements for your needs and for the price you are treated to an exceptional buffet style help yourself breakfast feast!😃 As a guest you’ll receive 10% off drinks at the bar as a lovely added bonus! WiFi as standard. The next time I’m in Manchester on work related matters as Arnie says…….. ‘I’ll be back!”
