About Le Ville Hotel
Canal Street's bars, restaurants and entertainment venues are all within easy reach, and Manchester Oxford Road station is just 0.35 miles away, making Le Ville Hotel a handy base for exploring the city on foot or by train. Tatton Park is also within reach for those wanting a break from the urban buzz, while golf courses and watersports are listed among the local activities for anyone looking beyond the city centre.
The hotel has 24 rooms, including family options, all with en-suite bathrooms and drinks available in room. Free WiFi runs throughout, and practical extras such as luggage storage, laundry service and concierge assistance are on hand to help guests get around and settle in. It's a straightforward, no-frills setup rather than a polished city hotel, and some rooms show their age.
Staff are generally friendly and the rates represent good value for a location this central, though service and room upkeep can be inconsistent. For anyone prioritising proximity to Manchester's nightlife and transport links over five-star polish, Le Ville Hotel covers the basics at a fair price.
What guests say
Not a great experience. Found a bug in the room. Partner was woken at 1am by other loud guests. I was woken at 7am by staff in the store cupboard next to our room. Bed is a tiny double for 2 people. Bathroom cabinet and bin hadn't neen cleaned. Realised after leaving id left my spare phone on too of the wardrobe. Rung the hotel and they claim nothing has been handed in and staff "always clean the top of the wardrobes" which they don't seems was full of dust when I put it there 🤣

This hotel is absolutely disgusting! I’m not convinced the bed was even changed between guests and the pillows are so far beyond their use, covered in stains, and need replacing or soaking in a tub of industrial strength bleach! I woke up with a rash on my legs. The dust under the bed and on the bedside table looked like months worth. The bathroom was gross and has had all the mould covered over to try to hide it, and months and months of hair and bodily fluids clogged in the drain cap. It stunk of mildew. I was a lone female and had nowhere else to stay due to the football matches, so had to pay an extortionate £120 for one night in this vile place. Horror show! The only decent thing is the location if you’re having a wild night out but aside from that I’d not recommend it!

⭐️⭐️ Villé Hotel, Manchester Unfortunately, this stay didn’t live up to expectations. Our first concern was luggage storage — bags were left essentially out in the open, which didn’t feel secure at all. This is especially worrying for guests travelling with medical equipment or essential items, as there’s a real risk of loss or theft with no clear safeguarding in place. The room itself had a small double bed, which felt cramped. We were specifically told by reception that our room was the quietest available, however from around 3am we were woken by glass bottles being loudly emptied into bins directly outside our window. On top of that, we could clearly hear other guests in their rooms and doors slamming, so noise insulation is very poor. After checkout, my partner sadly realised he’d left his eye mask behind. We contacted the hotel and were told they’d check. Within 10 minutes, we received a call saying it definitely wasn’t in the room — meaning it was either already removed by housekeeping or, frankly, someone wasn’t being fully honest. Either way, it didn’t sit right. On the positive side, the location is great for Canal Street, which is really the main redeeming feature. My partner has stayed here previously and felt it was noticeably better before. Sadly, it now feels like a change in management or chain has caused cracks to show, and standards have slipped. We won’t be returning unless significant changes are made.

Avoid at all costs. Even at just £10 per night, it’s not worth it. 1. The street noise is unbearable—you can literally hear everything, making sleep absolutely impossible. 2. The room is unbearably hot. Opening the window to cool down only makes sleeping even more impossible due to the noise. 3. The heater, window, and fan were extremely dirty. 4. The towels had a brownish tint and looked unhygienic. 5. The bed was covered in glitter, and the mattress was in poor condition. 6. The blue cushions were stained and disgusting. The only positive aspect is the staff—friendly and helpful girls who replaced towels and apologized for the inconvenience. Overall, this place is not worth staying at. It leaves a terrible aftertaste and is easily the worst hotel I’ve ever experienced.
