Best Western Smokies Park Hotel

We just spent two weeks at Smokies Park in July. This was our second visit for two weeks in 3 years. We have family and friends nearby so the location is ideal for our needs. This visit included the wedding of my wife's best friend's daughter held at the hotel and it was terrific. The hotel knows how to arrange a wedding and it was a big event done right. The staff are great and many of them remembered my wife and I from our previous visit. Job Well Done. We will be back. My only suggestion would be for the owners to update the furniture in the rooms and the restaurant as they are getting old and are showing there use. less

This is a modern hotel on the borders of Ashton-Under-Lyne and Oldham, but also quite handy for all the facilities that Manchester has to offer. There is a large car park, a smart reception area and extremely pleasant and helpful staff. I paid a small additional fee for an executive room which was very clean and had all the usual amenities one would expect from a four star hotel, a flat screen tv, coffee making facilities and most importantly, a really comfortable bed. Because Sunday nights are particularly quiet, it was necessary to use the telephone on the bar to obtain service, but the barman was pleasant, helpful and efficient in his quick response. Breakfast is a buffet-style breakfast with freshly cooked food that was continually re-stocked and very enjoyable. The receptionist was also very courteous and helpful on checking. All in all a really comfortable stay. Would I book again? Most definitely, especially compared with the many other hotels in the Manchester area. less

Stayed here twice in the last couple of months as convienient for area we needed to be in. I have also stayed here several years ago & was glad to see the hotel has been updated in last few years. Although quite tidy there is still some way to go in updating. Bathrooms & in particular showers are old & tired and in one room the shower lost all pressure when the shower was being used in the room next door. Biggest thing to watch at this hotel is the bar/function area is busy at the weekends and is very noisy for those rooms that look out onto the bar area opposite. Car parking is limited in particular when there is a function on and outside seating area was covered in empty bottles and fag ends the following morning. For a night or so stay its ok but do so during the week if you want a peaceful nights sleep and somewhere to park your car. less

Me and lee got married at smokies hotel Saturday the 4th of August everything was lovely the Crompton Suite was dressed beautifully and all the staff was so helpful the food was lovely all my guest said how nice it was and the bridal suite was very big clean and modern I would recommend smokies hotel for weddings less

Well, I don't know where to start to be honest. I got married on the 14th July at Smokies and the day went on without a hitch - I think so anyway. The reason for this was because of Sophie! My amazing Sophie. I couldnt have had the chilled and stressfree day without her. She made sure everything was right, from breakfast in the morning, to us going to bed at night. I am only 23 years old and when I went to other hotels they would talk to my mum about the day and how much things would cost and I didn't think anything of it until I met Sophie, she spoke to me like a bride, not my mum, me. She asked me what I wanted and how I wanted the day to run (don't get me wrong mum had input in most). Sophie Rothwell is a credit to Smokies and she is a gem you need to keep. Everyone commented on the food, from the canapés to the buffet at night time.. Not that I had a chance to eat either haha. Each person I have spoken to since and coming back off my honeymoon has said it was the best wedding they have ever been to. This is because of Sophie and your staff. You should be proud of her and the rest of the staff that worked my wedding day. I can tell you if I ever have another event I need planning, I know where I'm coming. Lauren Gibson xxxx less
