Travelodge Manchester Piccadilly

About this hotel
The Travelodge Manchester Piccadilly is a practical choice for fans heading to Etihad Stadium, especially those traveling with family or pets. Its prime location, just a minute's walk from Piccadilly Gardens tram stop, means you're well-connected to the stadium and all of Manchester's attractions. After the match, returning to the hotel is straightforward, avoiding the post-game rush. The hotel features an unfussy cafe/bar where you can grab a drink or a bite, and breakfast is available to start your day. While not directly next to the stadium, its central position and excellent public transport access make it a convenient and reliable option for match days and city exploration.

Our take
I would pick Travelodge Piccadilly for its position rather than its facilities. The Piccadilly Gardens tram stop is a minute away, so getting to the Etihad Campus and back into town is simple, and the city centre is on your doorstep. The rooms are plain, and breakfast and Wi-Fi are paid extras. For a fan who wants a no-fuss bed near the tram, it does the job.
- Use the tram from Piccadilly Gardens for a quick and easy journey to Etihad Stadium on match days.
- Book breakfast in advance if you want to fuel up before an early kickoff or a day of sightseeing.
- Consider the pet-friendly policy if you're bringing your furry companion to Manchester for the game.
Why we love it

Why guests love itTravelodge Manchester Piccadilly is a laid-back 3-star hotel with low-key rooms and a cafe/bar, a minute's walk from the Piccadilly Gardens tram stop. That tram stop is the key point for a match at the Etihad Stadium, since the Metrolink runs out to the Etihad Campus without a car. Families and pet owners are welcome. Breakfast and Wi-Fi cost extra, which is worth planning for. Guests rate it 8.2 across about 2,000 reviews.
