Family Celebration - January 2012

...A BIG THANK YOU

Dear Sarah

On Saturday we held a family celebration for my parents 50th wedding anniversary.  We chose Stanneylands rather nostalgically as they'd had their 25th wedding anniversary celebration with you.  I would just like to say that I can't fault Martina in your sales office, who helped organise everything - she was very efficient, professional and thorough and made all the arrangement.  On the basis of her service I would recommend the hotel for a function.  I also have to say a HUGE thanks to Eamonn who on the night was superb and made sure the whole evening was perfect and went without issue.  The Whole family enjoyed the meal but everyone commented on Eamonn's attention to detail, efficiency and professional courtesy.  We must also commend the bar staff and the staff who served the meal and in particular William.

Thank you on behalf of all my family, my parents Mr & Mrs MacFarlane and myself Mrs Robins.

To Liz, Eamonn & all at Stanneylands

We can't even begin to thank you for everything you did for our wedding day.  It was everything we could have asked for and more.  From the time you dedicated to us to make it right, the attention to detail, and your patience, to getting to know us, looking after our friends and family and making us feel unique and special, you all worked tirelessly to get it right and we loved every minute.

It was a loud and crazy evening do but you went with it and we all let our hair down and partied hard!!

Our only wish is that we could do it all over again!!! But we will come back for a meal every anniversary.

Thanks so much to you all

On behalf of Emma, Stephen & all their family and friends I would like to thank all the staff at your hotel for making our daughter's wedding so special.

A big thank you to Liz who helped us plan the day and to Eamonn who was absolutely fantastic on the day.  He was so friendly and helpful and it was so reassuring to know he was there to help things go smoothly.

The catering, bar & reception staff were all very friendly & proffessional and thanks to the chef for a lovely meal.

We would certainly recommend your hotel as a wedding venue to anyone without hesitation.

Many thanks!

Family Lunch - July 2011

To the Manager,

We would like to express our appreciation for the special family lunch we held last Saturday July 23rd at Stanneylands.  The restaurant staff were so helpful and attentive, every need was met.

Unfortunately 5 friends were stuck on the motoerway and missed the occassion.  In the vent we were able to take their food home with us.  They eventually reached our house, everything was eaten and nothing was wasted.

Many appreciative comments were made about the food, especially the wonderful salmon.

Our Sincere thanks go to the chef and his brigade, to Eamonn and the others and Martina for her organisation.

With all good wishes

When looking for a hotel to host our wedding ceremony, wedding breakfast and evening reception we chose the Stanneylands as it stood out from the rest, the hotel itself was beautiful as were the grounds.

A lot of time was spent by the staff at the Stanneylands ensuring that our wedding was perfect and it was from start to finish. Every single detail was covered, the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful and could not do enough for us, they made our day the best of our lives. Thank you to everyone at the Stanneylands for all your hard work, especially Eamon, you were an absolute star, I would recommend the Stanneylands to anyone, and will at every opportunity. Well done

We just want to say Thank You to all of the people who made our Silver Wedding celebrations so special.  We had afternoon tea on 1st May 2011.  The room was laid out beautifully, all of the requests for any dietary needs were carried out without any problems and the service was excellent.

All our guests enjoyed the afternoon and we just want to thank you for making it possible.

We booked our wedding in March 2010 for April 2011. It was a great day, and the staff at the hotel were brilliant in helping us organise it, especially Liz (in the preceding months) and Eamonn (on the day itself and in the weeks beforehand!).

The day went smoothly and without a hitch, and I don't think anybody had a bad word to say about the hotel. It has some great grounds for photos, and if you are lucky enough to have a warm sunny day like we did, and small to medium wedding size (up to 100 in the day, we were 60) then it doesn't feel too crowded or too empty.

Location wise it was spot on - very close to Manchester Airport so easy to find, and plenty of parking. Rooms are very good and they were definitely well priced. Breakfast was nice and hot the next day, with plenty of choice from a self-service buffet.

If you are looking at booking a wedding here, one of the concerns you can have is about the food - it can sometimes be cold and/or a bit tasteless. The food at this hotel was great - really hot and very tasty.

Bottom line - if you are looking at booking a hotel as a wedding and reception venue in the East Cheshire/South Manchester area, this hotel is definitely worth serious consideration! We checked it out based on recommendations from others, and we will also recommend it to others based on our experience!

Tripadvisor - May 2011

We went to the Stanneylands in May 2011 for a wedding. As a wedding venue it was lovely. The gardens are beautiful for the photos and the communal areas were immaculate and clean. The Stanley Suite looked fantastic all done up for the occasion. The wedding breakfast was lovely and i am a fussy eater! The evening sausage butties and chips was a great idea as there was not the usual "turn on the big lights and stop the party" routine associated with the nightime buffet at weddings.

The staff were all fantastic and Eamonn (who i believe is the manager) was literally born to be in the hotel industry. His attention to detail was second to none. I dont think i have ever met such a caring professional person in all of my hotel travels! Nothing was too much trouble.

I can not thank Eamonn and the team at stanneylands hotel enough for looking after us during our stay.

we stayed at the hotel the night for 3 nights for our wedding, we were made very welcome. The staff are very helpfull and are always happy to help with any request.

Check in- very prompt and and not stressfull

Rooms. we stayed in three rooms during our stay at stanneylands and along with the 10 other rooms booked in our party each room was spot on, extremly clean and comfortable and our exec suite smelt of fresh leather (from the TWO!! leather sofas in the room) the wow factor of the hotel never stops.

Breakfast. the buffet breakfast was of a good standard with a good choice of cereal and juices, i tho went straight for the full english which set me up for the day nicely.

Staff. the staff at the hotel are exceptional at their job i can not thank them enough for our experiance with them.

check out. again was quick and easy.

I can not recomend this hotel enough.

there were other weddings held at the hotel over our stay andwe were still made to feel special even tho we didnt have our wedding or wedding reception at stanneylands only makes our experiance even better

i can not wait for our next stay at the hotel

if your looking for a venu book it you wont be disapointed!!!

Ruby Wedding Anniversary - October 2010

Dear Mr Phelan

I write to thank you and your team from the excellent service we and our guests enjoyed on the occassion of our Ruby Wedding anniversary lunch in the Calico Bar and Oak Suite.

In particular, we must thank William and his staff, together with the bar and kitchen staff, for their quiet and professional attention.  It was evident that all our guests very much enjoyed the occassion, ambience and, not least, the excellent menu.

We also appreciated the help and attention to detail of Martina in the Sales Office.  She helped persuade us that The Stanneylands was the best choice for this important occassion.

Thank you to everyone

I have stayed at this hotel many times over the years and have never been disappointed with the standard of service. In september when i arrived i was allocated room 103 which was satisfactory but nothing special. I asked at reception if there were any other rooms available and without hesitation I was given room 306 which is in the new part of the hotel. There are about 30 rooms of this outstanding standard at this hotel and I would suggest if you are unhappy with your room, ask and I am sure they will find a more suitable room for you. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant which is a real treat. The a la carte menu is a little expensive but worth every penny. The staff at the restaurant are mature and know exactly what they are doing. I have known Jacques, the head waitor, for at least 10 years, and even though I entertain and stay at the hotel a couple of times a year, I am greeted like a regular guest. Breakfast food is good quality but presentation can be hit and miss. Reception staff are always welcoming and cheerful on arrival and departure.

We held our wedding ceremony and reception at Stanneylands Hotel on 10th April and the hotel was perfect from the very first meeting. The wedding organiser Liz is fantastic, always helpful and informative as well as friendly. The actual wedding was amazing, we had over 30 rooms booked for friends and family - the rooms were all to a great standard (particularly the suite we had!). The gardens and grounds were also fantastic for the photos!

The wedding itself was fantastic, well managed by Eamonn the manager, the food was cooked to perfection (no mean feat to serve 80 people in one go), the waiting staff we quick and helpful. The DJ reccomended by the hotel was great and kept the party going all night!

We can't wait to revisit the hotel on our future wedding anniversaries!!

i arrived in a snow storm and travelled by taxi.
Check-in was fast and friendly.  My room looked new-ish and it was clean and well equipped.
I had dinner in the restaurant which was very nice and William was most attentive.
Bar prices were expensive but a new conservatory bar had a very pleasant atmosphere.
Breakfast buffet was plentiful.
Overall I had a great stay at the Stanneylands.

I stayed there for one night. Since I was on business the location was important. Although this hotel is close to the airport you wouldn't reconise it. Plenty of free parking which is always a bonus. I've booked the room with breakfast and altough the price at £13.50 is not cheap it is a buffet style which allows you to get a good choice. Service was friendly and the dinner was very nice. Overall I can recommend this hotel, nice bar and restaurant and a big enough reception area with T-Mobile broadband in the hotel (pay per day), the room was spacious, clean and comfy and overlooked some of their woods and forecourt area.

Wedding - December 2009

We got married at Stanneylands Hotel on 5th December 2009 and found it to be absolutely perfect - from the decor, the food (all of our guests have commented on how delicious this was!) and drink to the excellent service provided. We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding. The bridal room was lovely, warm and clean and the breakfast the following morning was also lovely. We would highly recommend this hotel for a meal, an overnight/weekend stay and most definately for a wedding!!

Dear All

We have now arrived back in the UK and had a wonderful honeymonn in Thailand.

I am writing to you on behalf of Dave and myself to say thank you so much for such an incredible day, wasn't it magical, we have letters pour in off our guests expressing how they have never been to a wedding with such ambiance and feeling.  The service was impeccable!

From start to finish Eamonn never took his eye off the day.  I myself have never met a man with such charm and flair for a job he obviously loves.

Liz was amazing,... and for any woman out there looking for a fairytale wedding, you have no worries at all in the capable hands of Liz.

All the service staff from Reception to the waitresses, waiters were very competent and polite.

The food... WOW First Class

If I write anymore it might be too much!! Again thank you for a wonderful day.

Kindest Regards

My requests are simple but clear: a comfortable bed, a quiet room, curtains that keep the light out, and stuff that works. This hotel delivers that. The curtains are thick, the bed was excellent, the shower superb. It was stylish as well, and the staff were pleasant. Sadly I still did not sleep well, but that was because a raging storm that woke me at 5am.

The hotel is a short taxi ride (allow £4) from the station.

Just wanted to say that Stanneylands Hotel is the best place I've ever stayed. I would recommend it to anyone. It was my first stay there but it wont be the last. I came with my partner for a long weekend. We've arrived on Friday. The receptionist greeted me with a big smile and straight away I felt like at home. She booked for us a table for dinner that night and helped us with our luggage. We were joined by our friends for dinner. My friend has a small baby and Eamonn kindly has given her a room close to the restaurant so she could peacefully feed and change the baby. And the dinner.....it was absolutely amazing! Overall I have to say that it was a fantastic stay. The room was beautiful and cleaned every day (and I'm not a tidy person:)). The food was fantastic and the staff was so helpful and made me feel like at home. If anyone is going to Stanneylands you will be more than satisfied. Well done Stanneylands!!

With thanks to you and your staff for accommodating my Mothers 80th birthday celebration last Sunday.  The ambience, food, service and the friendliness and attitude of the staff was a great credit to you and the hotel.

I must pay particular thanks to William who was charming, and totally committed to every one of our demands!  He is a true professional and totally committed to the experience of the guest.

I look forward to my next visit and hope that this is in the very near future.

Wedding : 7th June 2009

Dear Eamonn

Heather and I would like to express our many thanks for all your help, advice and support with regard to our recent marriage celebrations on Sunday.

You and your team were exceptional in which all our wishes were met....and much more.

You certainly contributed to a most successful day, where all our friends and family members were most impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of everyone at Stanneylands.

You have always been most welcoming and involved with the preparations throughout, from the initial introduction meeting to our final hotel departure.

We have been so lucky to have had complete confidence with you, Liz Jackson and the rest of your team which has enabled Heather and I to really enjoy the day to the fullest.

Once again Eamonn, thank you so very much and we look forward to seeing you again sometime in the future.

Tripadvisor : May 2009

Might not be everybody's cup of tea, but this is a real find - I loved it. The hotel has somehow managed to survive being spoilt by "modernisations" and "improvements" and has a real atmosphere of a bygone era about it, I would say 1950s/60s (which is why it might not be everybodys cup of tea). However this does not mean it is tired or run down, far from it (with the odd exception). For the most part this is a very well run hotel with friendly staff who know what they are doing, are professional, but not at all stuffy. For an evening meal the restaurant is absolutely first class (and I am very fussy!!). The ambience is lovely with its 80 year old American rosewood panelling, and some unusual and interesting crockery. Jacques, who despite the name is Dutch, has waited on customers there for 30 years and delivers unfussy, unpretentious, but very professional silver service against a subdued background of classical music. He clearly loves his job and the restaurant. The table d'hote menu is £29.50 and includes hors d'oeuvre, starter, tasting size soup or similar, main course, pudding or cheese, and coffee - each course was of superb quality and overall it was good value for what it was. There is a wide selection of wines, with a good number available by the glass, including a champagne. The breakfast the next morning was not bad, but not quite up to the standards of the night before; it was a self service buffet.

A pleasure to arrive to your hotel : May 2009

We stayed in your hotel during May.

It was a pleasure to arrive to your hotel and to meet Cecilia in the reception, a nice openminded girl giving us good service and full attention.

When we entered into the restaurant for having our dinner we hesitated, as we learnt that only 6 guests should be eating that night.  We think empty restaurant are not nice to eat in.

However, we decided to stay and have our dinner in your restaurant.  It was a wise decision, as we had the pleasure of metting Jacques Franke, a man with experience and good knowledge not only about wines but also about all the food he was serving.  He had answers to all our questions, without have to go to the kitchen asking.  Which unfortunately is the most common answer we receive no a days when asking waiters about the food they are serving "I will go and ask in the kitchen"

You should be proud of your employees, Cecilia and Mr Franke.  They know what "customer satisfaction" means.

Thank you
