Weston Hall

My wife and I and our family, 9 adults visited for an evening meal, wouldn't normally travel this far to eat but one of our children lives in Bramshall. Everything was as we hoped. My wife has booked us again for her Birthday just before new year. Richard Smith.

I lived, as a University of Manchester student, in Weston Hall in my first year and loved it but I was terrified to move in because of all the bad reviews. Don't worry, everyone feels the same! The location is amazing, the rooms are a little small compared to some halls but there's good desk space, good shared living area and great common room. A lot of people are scared by the high % of international students and I do know some people who were in flats with people whose English wasn't great so they didn't talk to anyone in their flat but in 2018-2019 this just made us more sociable. ResLife had to be pretty strict on 11pm noise ban because some students complain every night. I lived in blue core. This is the main entrance area and has a lift, I was fairly lucky because green core does not have a lift. Red, yellow and silver core are postgrad areas and sort of nicer, but the undergrad areas are still good. There's 24 hour security. There isn't wifi but you just connect to the ethernet (buy an adapter). Good luck!

After a less than amazing meal before Christmas Weston Hall really turned it round for us last night. We had a delicious starter of scallops followed by pork and finished off with a totally yummy chocolate fondue. The atmosphere was warm and cosy and the cellar restaurant looked a picture. The service was perfect, attentive and friendly but not totally in your face. Ruby the restaurant supervisor was so helpful and hospitable. Looking forward so much to our next visit.
