It’s time for a family holiday in Manchester, where you can save a couple of bobs when you bring the kids! Not only do the little munchkins get to eat for free, but they also get to stay at the Holiday Inn City Centre at no cost!
This applies as long as the kid is accompanied by one full-paying adult. Kids under 13 years old can eat and stay at the hotel for free, while those under 18 are eligible for a free stay when booking a family room.
Up to two kids under 13 per one full-paying adult can enjoy this perk. If an adult orders breakfast, the kid can eat for free. For lunch and dinner, the adult must pick from the starter/main/large plate menu so the children can order from the kid’s menu for free.

Avoid travel industry booking and book directly at the hotel to avail of the promo. If you want to save some pounds, check the prices for both bookings and pick the one where you can save the most.
