Has anyone stayed in the Brewdog hotel in Manchester

And was it worth it? It’s Dp’s birthday in a couple of weeks, it’s not a big birthday but he has had a really hard time since Christmas and I want to splash out a bit. We’ve been to Manchester hundreds of times (we’re only 40 minutes away) so wouldn’t usually choose Manc unless I had tickets for something BUT I was thinking about doing a sleepover kind of night in there. But it’s a lot of money?

if you have been was it good?

thanks

I stayed last weekend. DP treated me. It was brilliant. The mini bar is quite expensive but he had got one of the add on packages in the room so we had loads of beer. There's loads of quirky bits to it and it's really central. Happy to answer any questions :)

Oh great! Glad you had a good time!

Yeah the package I’m looking at is the one with the beer tap, beer in the shower, mini bar, beer making experience (I think!) plus dinner and breakfast! Is this what you had?

Brewdog are a very dodgy company. Google their CEO. I wouldn't give them money.

Interested in this thread?

I wouldn’t do anything Brewdog - watch the documentary about them .

Agree with previous posters re checking brewdog as a company ….

The boss is a shit, spend your money somewhere else.

@Floralnomad ooh what’s the name of the documentary?

Floralnomad · 26/02/2023 22:33

No, we only stayed for one night so would never have got through all that!! We just had the tap in the room. There was still shower beer etc but you paid for what you drank.

I've clearly missed something about Brewdog, judging by other comments. We did have lots of fun though 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yeah I’m not a beer drinker so not sure how much we’d get through 😂 I’ll have a look tonight and check out the documentaries but I clearly have no moral fibre as I’m not sure it would really put me off 🤷‍♀️

I hope that you change your mind once you've watched the documentary and read associated articles.

I used to love Brewdog beer/ale. Not a single drop has passed my lips since watching the documentary and reading about the company.

Just so you're aware, the beer school is a beer tasting event. So usually just you and your partner and they will take you through most of the beers on tap, usually a half of each so you will be very pissed!!
