To the whole team at Voco Manchester! I just want to say a massive massive thank you for anything you did leading up to my 30th birthday party! From booking initial with Jacob many months ago to the actual day itself, your service have been expectational! I couldn’t have asked for better support from your team! Everyone commented on how accommodating & patient you were. I cannot thank you enough. I will most certainly be retuning in the future & recommending you to everyone I know!! A massive massive thank you to Jacob! You have been awesome & so great throughout the entire process! You really went above and beyond to make sure I had a 30th celebration which I will remember for many years! Words cannot even begin to express my gratitude. Thank you Voco Manchester for providing such a beautiful atmosphere 🩷

Service. Venue. Location. Jacob is super helpful.
Some issues with the music on the night. It did not work to begin with, but was fixed. Barmen should have offered remaining free drinks before charging guests. ..
