Le Ville Hotel is a 24-room budget property located
on Canal Street in central Manchester, in the heart of the city’s Gay Village.
This is also the center of the city’s vibrant party scene, making the hotel popular with party-goers -- be aware that weekends can get especially
noisy. Le Ville's location commands high room rates, but other budget hotels offer better value. Travelers might want to consider the Premier Inn Manchester City Centre Portland Street, which has an on-site restaurant and bar, a “Quiet Time” policy, and good online deals. Gardens
Hotel is another good budget choice, with much larger rooms than at Le Ville Hotel.

Scene
Popular with party-goers, especially on weekends
Le Ville Hotel occupies an
attractive, two-story red brick building on a scenic tree-lined street next to a
canal. Clean-lined interiors are chicly decorated in a low-key colorful style: The
red-and-white walls in the lobby contrast with the slate-gray tile
floors, and the bright-red faux-leather sofas create a
cheerful, laid-back, playful ambience. Clientele varies from week to weekend. Many
business and leisure travelers stay here midweek, when nights are reasonably quiet. Weekends, however, draw party going-couples seeking to stay in the heart
of the action.
Location
Centrally located on Canal Street, the heart of the city’s Gay Village
Le Ville Hotel is conveniently located on the banks of the canal -- right in the heart of the city’s gay neighborhood. Many of the city’s tourist sights are easily reachable on foot or by public transport. Picadilly train station, where the Metroshuttle city bus stops, is a five-minute
walk from the hotel, and the Central Coach
Station, where long-distance buses arrive and depart, is a two-minute walk away. Manchester Airport is about a 20-minute drive, depending on traffic, or 28-minute train trip from Picadilly station.- Five-minute walk to ManchesterArt Gallery
Rooms
Small, simple, functional rooms decorated in a cheerful style
The 24 guest rooms are simple, clean, bright and cheery -- but small. Painted in bright yellows and reds, rooms are highlighted by deep-pink accents echoed in the curtains and bed linens, and have carpeting or laminate flooring. But space is at a premium -- beds take up most of the square footage, and rooms feel cramped. Standard Rooms are a bit larger than the
Economy Rooms, which are on lower floors and get the least amount of light; plus, their windows can't be opened, which can make them especially uncomfortable in the summer. King Rooms are the largest, but they have only a bit more space. Bathrooms, while modern, are small, with shower stalls only -- no bathtubs, but they come with hairdryers and toiletries. All rooms include electric kettles for tea and coffee, free
Wi-Fi, 32-inch flat-screen TVs, and mood lighting. Noise from the nearby bars and
clubs can be a disturbance, especially on weekends.
Features
Free Wi-Fi throughout; breakfast served off-site for an extra fee
