Are any of the three hotels (Radisson, Hilton, Crowne Plaza) noticeably nicer or dumpier than the others?
BTW, it seems to me that there are a whole lot of trains between Manc Pic station and the airport.
The Hilton is at the airport but they do run shuttles to the terminals, as does Crowne Plaza which is closer to T1/3. I usually walk to the terminal if it’s not raining.
I haven’t stayed at Radisson but I would say Radisson is nicer and more expensive than the other two. If you want to stay at a Hilton property the Hilton in the City is much, much nicer than the Airport Hilton. Doubletree is right next to Piccadilly station and is also better than the Airport Hilton although rooms might be smaller.
