Came here last minute to book 2 rooms as the other hotel was a disaster. Prior to coming, tired to ring the hotel numerous times and no answer.
The receptionist Chitma or Chigma her name was, told us it was fully booked, being very dismissive, unhelpful it felt almost disrespectful despite seeing rooms available on booking.com, her excuse for not helping she was "she logged out the workstation". Maybe understanding she was out in a rush to get off her shift, she could of simply said so, then called her colleague to assist rather than lying its fully booked. It's a shame.
After requesting to speak to a manager, Sherry or Sheryaer came and sorted everything out within 5 minutes with top quality service. Thank you Sherry! In the morning was greeted with Pierce also nice gentleman who is helpful and was apologetic about the unhelpful colleague from last night, and was greeted by Lucy who seemed friendly.
For the price you pay, you cannot complain about some imperfections you may come across in the room. Comp minibar with couple of drinks. Spa facilities did not have time but additional cost £10. Breakfast was OK.
Thank you Sherry, Pierce and Lucy!

Love going here, location is perfect. We even get to have a laugh with the staff. We check in all times of the morning due to working night shifts, and are always welcomed and looked after by staff and management.
With having the spa and pool makes it even better to relax and forget about life for a while. Credit to everyone who works here and makes everyone welcome.

Arrived late for a 2 night break as we were visiting Manchester. Great location outside of the busy centre, it has a country cottage feel.
We booked a standard room but was complimentary upgraded to an Executive Suite which was a lovely gesture / suprise.
Rooms were clean, hotel was busy of all age ranges + kids which was nice to see. Staff were always present and helpful. My only twinge was the breakfast price (£16.50 each!) for a very small buffet. We regret not venturing out for breakfast but it is what it is. Overall a nice, cosy hotel we would consider this place again if we ever need to be in Manchester :)

Efficient, courteous reception. Bags taken to room for me. The two ladies in the bar were very friendly and so helpful. Aziz (?) in the dining room for breakfast was so welcoming and helpful - offered to get my coffee for me and I saw him bringing other guests’ breakfast for them. Big shout out to all the staff I encountered; the service throughout the hotel went above and beyond and I highly recommend a stay at the Dunkenhalgh.

I stayed here with my best friend for my birthday present from her and honestly it was amazing, Stephen the deputy general manager went above and beyond for us and the service he provided was impeccable and he deserves recognition for this as he is a credit to the establishment.
Our server Chloe (black hair) at the restaurant was so so lovely and extremely attentive also. The room we stayed in was beautifully designed and very welcoming, I had the best nights sleep I have had in a very long time so so comfy.
The food was so delicious at the restaurant for dinner and the breakfast buffet was to die for! So much selection!
I will 100% be back and looking forward to it, thank you for making my birthday one to remember ❤️

The grounds and building looks impressive. Room well decorated and modern. Check in easy and very friendly. However there was some issues:
As we were staying in room 64 - through the courtyard, and it was a very heavy rain at that time, we got to the room soaked, as you need to walk outside to get to your room.
The guttering system caused very loud noise from the rain through the night so our sleep wasn't comfortable.
We have used swimming pool and saunas, which were great. Warm swimming pool and spacious and efficient steam rooms, saunas.
We also went to the bar for evening and this was quite disappointment. We ordered margarita pizza with mushrooms and according to menu it suppose to have mozzarella in it. Instead it was parmeggiano, which make the pizza very salty and extremely oily. We didn't enjoy that. Will we stay again? Probably not.

Unfortunately the grand image was not reflected in the room I was in. It was fine for a business trip, but feels tired and unloved. The issues highlighted in the attached photos could be remedied easily, but it seems they haven't got around to it.

Cannot recommend this hotel high enough for the experience I had for my 50th birthday!!
I had booked this experience through a Groupon voucher but my other friends had also use the Wowcher site.
First of all I want to see a big thank you to Becky on reception for making our check-in smooth and delightful.
We had a guy to take us to our room who was very pleasant (sorry I forget his name...but he was lovely)
When I got to my room they had given me a free upgrade and a decorated it with a 50 balloon, chocolate box and a lovely sign on the mirror.
I had 12 friends come to stay and the Spa experience is much improved from last time I came... all the steam/ sauna rooms are lovely and it was like a spa thermal journey.
The pool was just the right temperature too. Lovely and warm.
The restaurant experience was amazing... we were all able to have the two course meal option. A big mention to Nina and Sara for making even more special and putting up with our loud noise and late dining experience!
The breakfast was also lovely and lots of choice. I would definitely be rebooking. There is nothing I could fault about this hotel and I would recommend it to anyone who's planning a big gathering or a special day.
