Our take
I would choose the Kimpton Clocktower when you want a memorable Manchester base rather than a room next to Old Trafford. The Victorian building and art deco restaurant and bar set it apart, and Oxford Road Station a minute away makes the trip to the stadium simple. Families benefit from the kid-friendly approach, laundry service and accessible facilities, and pets are welcome. A 9.0 score from more than 3,800 guests is outstanding for a hotel of this size.
- Use Oxford Road Station, just a minute's walk away, for direct public transport to Old Trafford on match days.
- Book a table at The Refuge for a sophisticated pre-match meal or post-game drink, it's a popular spot.
- If you're traveling with family or pets, take advantage of the hotel's kid-friendly and pet-friendly amenities for a smoother stay.
