Stayed here last August for one night. Deal included stay, 3 course meal, and breakfast. We do not live far from Bury so hotel easy to find from motorway. Plenty of parking available.
Arrived Friday afternoon and check in was ok and we went to our room. Not much info given about spa, restaurant etc is was a bit like find it out yourself.
The room was small but alright for a one night stay. However we were stuck at the back of the hotel and had a view of a brick wall!!! The lighting in the room was very dim not good for doing make up or your hair.
We did use the pool which we enjoyed along with the jacuzzi but we didnt have any spa treatments which are available at a charge.
We booked our evening meal time and this was very nice you chose from a set menu. Wine was not included and was a little pricey.
There is a lovely pub just across the carpark which we visited for a drink at lunchtime when we found it quite busy. However when we popped in at night it was so quiet it was closing early.
While there lots of guests were staying for a wedding and other functions which was ok untill you wanted to sleep. It was very noisey during the night by other guests coming back to their rooms very late and some running up and down the corriders banging doors. This spoilt it for us as it was a one night stay for a special birthday for me and I had a party the next day.
Breakfast was a let down as you had to wait standing untill a table was free and yet when after about 15mins we went in lots were free but uncleared.Also a football team were getting breakfast and eating elsewhere so you had to wait ages for food etc as they couldnt cope with the demand.
Would I go again maybe on a deal but I would ask for a better view and a quiter room.

My husband is from the UK, just outside of Bury, and when we would visit we would always stay with his Dad. Well, his Dad decided to move over to the states near us and right about the same time they built this hotel. We have been staying there ever since, at least for 10 years now, probably more. We've seen the hotel change and grow and it really is like a home away from home for us and our two boys, now 15 and 13. We have always had great service, great food and we even had my husband's daughter's wedding there in 2008. That went very well as we expected it would. We always get bed and breakfast and enjoy the full breakfast buffet every morning (although after 10+ years I have to be honest, some changes to the breakfast buffet, for me, the fussy American, would be very welcome). The pool and the leisure center is unsurpassed. I've also had the opportunity to use the spa a couple of times and that is also very nice with great service and offerings. We've had friends and family join us for the wedding and they've stayed here with us other times as well and everyone loves it here. You can enjoy Bury Market just down the road and the beautiful new Rock Shopping Center with shops galore and it's an easy drive by car or taxi or train in to Downtown Manchester with all sorts of wonderful shopping, restaurants and bars. Not sure when we'll be back but it won't be long.

We stayed at the hotel for 3 days over Easter with a meal included on the first night.

We decided to try the new Italian restaurant vinny and vino.

What can I see apart from extremely poor if any director or senior manager of VILLAGE is reading this please think again or go bsvk to yhe drawing board.

Our starters took an eternity and when they arrived were wrong.

We left our starters and explained to staff in the bar.

A young man called Matt Ransom then used all his customer service skills and turned the whole experience into a positive one.

We sldo spoken to the hotel Manageress who was very sympathetic and listened to our experience and took on board our constructive criticism about the vino and vinny restaurant.

As for our food in the bar it was absolutely perfect so much that our friends that live in Bury were going there the following week to try.

This is the third time we have stayed at the village Bury and find the staff to be friendly and rooms to be comfortable.

We cannot wait for our next visit in June and will be spreading the word of this hidden gem of Bury.

I am a gym member here and regularly stop over for theme nights such as Take That tribute bands etc. I also always try to fit in a swim/gym or both before or after work dependent on my shifts. This is an extremely busy hotel with a couple of good restaurants including the bar for lighter meals. The staff are exemplary and the rooms are good value. The only bugbear I have is the amount of time allocated to kids swimming lessons because there isn't a separate pool and the instructors like to occupy up to 2/3 of the pool area which is really annoying. They should get rid of the sun loungers and build a kids pool then everyone would be happy because alot of regulars are in agreeance. Apart from that, definitely worth a stay. Excellent value.

We stayed 2 nights b&b and evening meal both nights (eating from the 2 for £29.00 menu
First thing it is accessible to wheelchairs (big plus when you are pushing someone in one) with lots of disabled parking spaces.
Although we did not book an accessible room, the bathroom had enough room and grips for a disabled person.
The bed was comfortable and we had two pillows each (yipee!)
We ate in Vinny and Vinos the first evening and the food was good although it took an eternity to get our three courses (2 hours plus)
The second night we ate in the bar and again the food was good this time with express service.
Breakfast was o.k could have done with a few more cereals to choose from.

Staff were friendly and helpful throughout

Another plus is that is very easy find being right on the Motorway exit.

Only gripe was wine was quite pricey £12.00 plus for a half caraffe was a bit steep.

However really enjoyed the break and have added it to my list of places to use for a short break or stopover

If you are prepared to take the magical mystery tour to the annex at the back of the hotel you will find some very quiet rooms overlooking the river at the back. The rooms are basic but beds very comfortable. The highlight of the stay was the italian restaurant - great food at a very reasonable price and extremely pleasant, attentive staff who go out of their way to explain the extensive menu and make you feel very welcome indeed. I'd give it five stars but the bathroom was a bit tired, fancied a bath but the silicon sealant around the bath could do some some anti mould treatment and the fabric on the seat for the desk was shabby/stained and lastly no radio stations on the tv. But I'll definitely return for the food and the beds and the excellent team that work there.

If you get a special deal this can be a fun family night away. The bedrooms are decent in size and beds comfy, our room needed a good clean so we asked to move and the upper deck room was very well cleaned. The gym facilities were great but the spa a little expensive. Pub served good wine and had a fun atmosphere. The restaurant food was high quality but overpriced, we were given discount vouchers for the restaurant on departure. The food was so good but it was empty in the restaurant so perhaps the high prices put people off? Oh and 3 menus was confusing, one menu would be better in my opinion. Breakfast was average, good choice but the hot breakfast was greasy and cheap, it wasn't that busy so an egg cooked to order would have made a big difference. Overall it's a handy location, lots on offer for a hotel and rooms are competitively priced so we will go again

we booked a family room for two nights, but on arrival i wasnt sure if this was a family room? i queried this at reception only to be told it was a family room. our kids were meant to share a sofa bed, however, we felt this inappropriate as they are male and female and different ages. so my husband and son shared the sofa bed and we had the large comfy bed! the hotel was immaculately clean in every area. the leisure facilities where fantastic although the kids pool times where a little restricting. we ate at the hotel both nights, good choice and good quality food although on the first night they forgot the kids meal! however, my husband did complain to management about the room and they acted really quickly, we were given a better room with 2 kids beds and sky movies for the kids so well done village, we enjoyed our stay and would thinks about booking again, in an upper deck room

I have stayed in this hotels many times in the last 5 years due to work in the area. This is the first time back in about 18 months with the comments below:
Positive:
Rooms are fairly big
Choice of food good
Access to the free gym and pool is very good. Lots of equipment to use and large pool. Does get busy in peak times
Very friendly and approachable staff (Espicially on reception)

Negatives

Room felling tired. Dirty marks on wall. Toilet missing gromets on seat. Loose electric socket.Dirty Shower area.
I had a disabled room with a joining door that banged when the window was opened.
I ate in the resturant, food was ok. Service took ages (Over an hour for garlic bread and meatballs)
Breakfast - Ate at 7.30am not great quite good choice but had been sitting there a while.

Suggestions
Try and get a room that is not in the back. These rooms are not refurbished and are a walk to reception.
