This is a fantastic place to stay!
Robert is a very kind and friendly host, and the house is beautiful. As the flat itself is in the basement it can be quite cool, which I personally prefer, but worth being aware of if you feel the cold.
I loved the local area, and found a fantastic cafe ten minutes away (Something More Productive)
I'll definitely stay again when I need to be in Manchester, highly recommended!

Had a wonderful couple of weeks with Robert. Lovely basement self contained flat, with own entrance. Great Digs to come back to. Very easy bus route into town. Would highly recommend and will stay again next time I'm in Manchester.

Super easy bus journey to the Palace Theatre and city centre even late at night. 10 minute walk to a big supermarket and food places. Lots of space and decently equipped kitchen. Unfortunately it does get cold even in warm weather and the shower water pressure is not great, but otherwise it was a very comfortable stay. The host was always helpful and friendly.

I had a lovely stay.
26th Jul 2024
I had a wonderful stay at Robert's house. An entire basement flat to myself - fully equipped kitchen with comfortable, cosy lounge, double bedroom amd bathroom. 2 mins walk to bus stop with very regular services into town. Local supermarkets and cafes etc in walking distance. Robert was absolutely lovely - a great host. Thoroughly recommended. Thanks for having me!!
24th Jul 2024
Beautiful basement flat, about a 1 min walk to the bus stop which is a really easy direct route into town. Really good value for money.
29th Apr 2024
Kind, accommodating and communicative host. The digs were comfortable and cosy for my 3 week stint. Easy commute into work and buses run nice and late. Thank you very much!
18th Mar 2024
Maddie was a great guest . Welcome back anytime
Wonderful to stay in Roberts's roomy and, homely flat again. Great communication with Robert as always.
Would highly recommend staying here.
7th Dec 2023
The flat is incredibly spacious and generously priced. A 40 minute journey to the Opera House door-to-door, around £10 in a taxi. The flat is only warm during the daytime so do bring an extra warm blanket for after your show, and possibly some noise cancelling headphones if you’re sound-sensitive as any (fairly infrequent) noise from upstairs carries like they’re in the room. A very comfortable stay, I would 100% stay again and recommend - it’s even large enough for a couple to stay.
28th Nov 2023
A cosy flat in the basement. V comfortable and warm. I was working at the Lowry so had to take a bus and a tram. Easy for the theatres in the city. Robert is a charming and interesting landlord. I had a lovely week.
23rd Oct 2023
Robert was lovely and communicative. The basement apartment was well kitted out. Lots of pots and pans and cutlery and an oven and stove. It was also really good to hear Robert teaching some amazing opera singers upstairs in his house! Beautiful. I was also left very much to my own devices down there too which, I personally always appreciate. Especially when on tour :)
28th Sep 2023
Thankyou for the kind review Ryan .
It was such a wonderful place to stay
27th Jun 2023
A great set of digs that do everything you need them to! Robert was a lovely host and communicated really well when there were issues. Great value for money and easy transport into the centre.
31st May 2023
It was clean, tidy and a great little space. Quite far from the theatre but I knew that when I booked. It was exactly what I needed and just as advertised.
9th May 2023
An absolute treat on so many levels. I was lucky enough to have a half of the show week off, basement flat to myself and daily croquet games with the host. Place of a positive energy and love for music
30th Apr 2023
A lovely couple of weeks staying at Robert's - comfortable and all the facilities available for a very reasonable price!

Thankyou very much for your positive review. You’re welcome back anytime .
Robert's flat is a home from home: cosy, well equipped, warm and private - a real haven after a show. Travel into town is easy - 5 mins walk to bus stop, then 20 mins journey. I would highly recommend staying here and will definitely book next time!

It was lovely to have you with us again. Good luck with everything . What a great review . Thanks
Robert's cosy basement flat was a welcome retreat over the busy Christmas season. The surrounding area has a village feel with a supermarket nearby and the property is mature and characterful.
Top choice for lounging, cooking, escaping.
13th Jan 2020

8th Oct 2019
Lovely people. Lovely, private basement flat. Proper actor's digs and so straightforward to get to and from the centre. All things considered, I'd be surprised if there is a better option in Manchester.
12th May 2019
Lovely self contained basement flat in a beautiful home. Robert is a very easy to communicate with and I had everything I needed. Great bus routes in to town and lots of local shops and pubs. Would stay here again every time I’m down working.

27th Nov 2018
I very much enjoyed Victoria House. the room is a mini apartment on the basement of a beautiful house. Very well equipped and comfortable. Public transports to the Palace theatre and the city centre is excellent and Robert a fantastic host.
20th Aug 2018
Great digs, lovely and warm in the winter.
4th Mar 2018
A great property and friendly host in a lovely big house. Access could be a problem for taller people and parking was occasionally awkward but no real problems. Thoroughly recommended.
7th Feb 2018
Glad you were ok. Re “ could be a problem for taller people” you had keys to use the main house entrance/hall way which has 18ft ceilings. I wonder then why you chose to use to use the lower garden room entrance ? All the best.
Robert was a lovely and charming host.
The flat is warm and has all you need for a pleasant stay. The bus stop is close and I never waited more than five minutes for a bus. Twenty minutes bus ride.
Thank you so much. See you again soon.
29th Jan 2018

9th Jan 2017
Glad that you were comfortable and that all went well for you here in Manchester. You were a great guest. Toy Toy!
A truly charming place to stay. Wish I'd been there for a season!
Half hour bus/drive to the centre, but as we know, anything in central M/chester is cost prohibitive. Could not recommend more highly. Great value.
30th Oct 2016
Thank you James. I'm gratified that you are satisfied
I had a wonderful stay. Robert made me feel very welcome. It's a beautiful house in a lovely street with great transport links to all theatres. It's more than just a bedroom, it's a real home from home. Highly recommend

Sorry for being so tardy with my response. It was great to meet you and to have you stay. A great guest. Happy New Year to you!
