Reasonably priced hotel for a layover in Sale for family of 4. Staff were very friendly, continental breakfast was included ....new nespresso machine and generous spread of food. The hotel is a bit dated, but everything was reasonably clean. I will stay here again.

Really impressed with the accommodation. The Matador has been part of Sale for many years and the current owners are providing a high standard. It’s clean, comfortable and very convenient to the theatre and great eating venues. Staff couldn’t have been nicer and the complimentary breakfast was excellent.
