What on earth is going on with the prices in the last year or two?
Used to be able to get a reasonable room (Premier Inn type, or equivalent) in the city for around £60-80 per night, now it's a struggle to get one for less than £100.
I travel a fair distance for games, so occasionally like to stay over and relax after a game, rather than be rushing around but it's getting to the point where it's just not affordable any more.
By contrast I was looking at hotels in Newcastle for the boxing day game, and I can get 2, or even 3 nights there, for the same price as one in Manchester on a non-holiday time!
I stay at the one opposite Piccadilly station when i am in Manchester and find them reasonableMotel One. Think there's a couple in town, I noticed one had opened on cross street opposite the royal exchange theatre when I walked past the other week.
A VERY good budget/mid range hotel. I stopped over in one on a recent business trip to Vienna
Midweek games are always cheaper but I cannot stay up for them, due to work.I'm staying in Premier Inn Portland Street for the Everton game, Got the room for £37.
