Pre-authorisations are a global standard practice in hotels. Upon check-in, we will use a valid credit or debit card to take a pre-authorisation deposit. The money will not actually leave the account, but the funds will be unavailable to access and may appear as a "pending" transaction. After check-out, the money is automatically released and returned to the account.

We take a pre-authorisation to cover any incidentals or damages, including odour removal, deep clean, and loss of income incurred if the apartment has to be put out of service. 

We apologise that your preauthorisation is taking longer than expected.

If you are concerned, please send a screenshot to reservations@citysuites.com of the pending or settled transaction for £100.00 / £200.00 from CitySuites Operating Company for pre-authorisation & we can investigate further.

If you do not have a pending or settled transaction, the pre-authorisation has already been released back to your account.

Since 24th February 2022, all Covid restrictions in the UK have been lifted. While life is returning to normal, at CitySuites we are continuing to take extra precautions.

Hand sanitiser is available for guests to use in rooms and public spaces. Face coverings are no longer mandatory in the UK but please do wear one if you feel more comfortable. All facilities, including the pool and gym, are open as normal.

Should you have any further questions, our reservations team will be more than happy to discuss your stay with you and are available 24/7.

A self-contained unit of accommodation or a self-contained holiday letting is an accommodation option that has its own kitchen, bathroom and toilet inside it for the exclusive use of the household staying or living within that accommodation. If guests need to leave the accommodation to gain access to any one of these amenities, then that accommodation option is not self-contained. All CitySuites apartments are self-contained and include all of your mod-cons.

A mainstream hotel offers guests a room or suite with a bathroom only, therefore, the only catering option is to dine-out. A self-contained holiday let or accommodation minimises contact with others as the guest is able to cater for themselves as they would at home.

The UK government lifted all restrictions on 24th February 2022 meaning face coverings are no longer mandatory. You do not need to wear a mask while moving around our public areas in CitySuites and CitySuites II, including the lobby, lifts, the pool area, and the restaurant. However, if you feel more comfortable wearing one, please feel free to do so.

We understand that things may change that are out of the control of our guests, so we offer flexible and semi-flexible rate options as well as non-cancellable rates. If in the case of another unexpected national lockdown post-June 21st 2021, then CitySuites will offer reservation date amendments regardless of the original booking cancellation policy.

If you have already booked a flexible rate with us, then you can cancel your booking online for a full refund up to 24 hours prior to your arrival date. If not on a flexible rate, please contact the CitySuites reservations team directly to discuss your current booking either via reservations@citysuites.com or by calling 0161 302 0202.

We appreciate that things change, we have a flexible 24-hour cancellation policy for bookings placed on flexible rates. For more information please view our terms and conditions.

Guests who have made a booking via a third party online travel site are advised to contact them (the third-party) directly to make any changes to their reservation. For more information please refer to your booking confirmation email.

Following the latest announcement from the UK government, the swimming pool and gym facilities at CitySuites will be open as normal from July 19th 2021. There is currently no limited capacity so guests will be able to enjoy the facilities at their leisure during the opening hours.

Glad you asked! Our housekeeping teams follow health & safety procedures, including using hospitality branded disinfectant throughout the public spaces and practising social distancing measures.

The CitySuites team have implemented additional prevention strategies, including but not limited to:

• Cleaning all public spaces every two hours.
• Housekeeping services have been adapted in line with new measures.
• Key cards are disinfected upon arrival. We are also offering a key card drop off station at checkout to further prevent physical contact.
• We’ve also diarised 'Virus Fogging' spray treatment in the communal areas, reception and luggage store that will add an additional sanitisation and disinfection against the virus.

Prior to lockdown being introduced, we invited a Chief Welfare Officer (CWO) to advise how to prevent the spread of COVID-19 within the CitySuites building. The CWO in question is a nationally recognised leader in the fields of infection prevention and control and immunisation. For further information please visit our Cleanliness Policy.
